Bots on market
-
@mandrykm_PSN I’m working. I’ll get Stanton when I get off and let you know how long it takes.

@mandrykm_PSN I don't think their systems are able to do this correctly. They did a huge restriction, and accidentally restricted hundreds (or more) people who were doing nothing wrong.
You had to put in tickets, and they eventually got back to you (took like 4-5 days for me).It just seems that they aren't able to properly identify a bot vs. a human. I've seen the same stuff happening with the immediate and repeated undercuts that no human can possibly be doing.
-
Like yes people can be bidding up 1 always, but when an order is canceled and then 1-upped at the same time, that's when it looks suspcious.
Either way, those usually clear and you're able to get whatever card you need - even if annoying. -
I do that all the time on PlayStation - I don’t use the app to sell but when I want to sell something quick I’ll cancel and relist very quickly until it’s sold. Up to a certain threshold but I just want my cash money now hah.
I’m probably a person people hate cause I’ll drive it low until it’s sold, change from 1, to 50, to 100 etc
Usually to buy some other card I want
-
This is all just so stupid. Why do so many people assume it’s “bots” 1-upping bids? Like it’s impossible for a human to do that. I do it all the time and I’m just 1 dude. When there 100’s or even 1000’s of people looking at these cards at any given time, this bid activity can easily be human.
And if it was just bots bidding each other up 1 stub at a time, what would the bot owner be gaining? I have yet to not get a card I wanted by placing a normal bid that was like 10 stubs above/below the low/high bid. -
@tear4eddy_PSN
Yeah that’s kind of what I was getting at.Now granted - some of the “bots” could’ve been putting in a bunch of instant 1 less/more bids but I’m like you, if I want to sell or buy something quick I’m on there trying to getter done.
Now multiply that by population playing. High chances it’s not a bot.
-
@JenkinMeyer_PSN on no, I do the same thing. I just mean there are times when an order is canceled and relisted WHILE you're putting one in. Like the speed of cancel to relist is unreal. But like I said - I never have trouble getting a card so it is what it is.

The bots are currently on the 93 Cody bellinger.

Feels like everything online is compromised at this point. I hope they figure something out but once the integrity of the game is in question for me I am losing interest. Huge fan of the game, started playing in 23 and my drive to compete is gone. No point to grind or try a flip cards etc for me.

I am back on The Show after about a 5 year hiatus. One of the first things i noticed that was strange was how often I'm quick selling players now.
It doesn't make sense that Silvers are only as valuable as their quick sell. Back in '19 almost all cards were worth more than their actual value (quick sell value). You could make stubs from selling commons on the Pirates or other teams that didn't have diamonds.
I do think there's some validity to SDS doing this in order to keep people from making stubs and having to buy them.
-
A moment of silence for the absolute idiots that couldn’t tell these were bots. They vote, the drive, the walk around among us completely hidden, sometimes they bid one up on cards they are flipping. Maybe that’s what you were experiencing.
-
It’s that plus bits flooding the market with all cards except gate keepers from earning thousands of free packs running the cheating scripts.
