Market restriction permanent
-
Something interesting just happened to me…
I’ve been doing the silver to gold exchange regularly…
Don’t mind saying that I buy 75’s and exchange 10 for a gold pack. Been keeping an eye on the price of 75’s. With the stub sale, they fluctuate a lot.
Anyway, just noticed ALOT of them are back to minimum (50 stubs). So, started to put in orders for exactly 19 of them. (I own one, so 19+1 is 20!!)
Using the mobile app, it let me put in 11 orders then I got an “account restricted” notice. Moved on to the next guy. Same. 11 orders, then “account restricted “. I’m thinking the new limit is 10 or so.
Nope. Moved on to third guy. First order , “account restricted “.
Interesting….. something has changed.

@capardo_XBL I just had the same thing happen on my phone.I closed and opened the app and was still restricted. Tried on my desktop and no problem.
A few minutes later, I reopened on my phone and was able to place an order. Hopefully you're back in soon. For context, I used to flip a whole lot but lately haven't really been on the app nearly as much.

@SQT18_XBL I tried desktop and still restricted
-
I’ve admittedly bought ALL of the 75’s at one time recently (maybe even a time or two or three…)
Gets you almost 75 packs of golds.
-
@capardo_XBL give it a minute. Happened to me also and now it’s working again. I don’t mind temporary cool downs if it gets rid of the bots.
-
Agreed. If it takes time, that I don’t mind at all.
-
I put in about 22 orders in a minute (or so). Sounds like there’s now a “time limit” on the number of orders you can place?? (I’m guessing).
-
@Bridge-Piece_XBL If it's temporary and it helps bots, cool. Worse things could happen.
The pessimist in me thinks otherwise though. I'm on cards that have never had a bot problem. I could place 20 orders at a time for minimum price. Come back hours later and sell them later for low maintenance profit. All this is doing is cutting the potential profit in half.
-
There was an update to the app (I got this morning) that said, “market throttle”. I guess this is what they were referring to? (Again, guessing)

Are all of you that are saying you’re restricted referring to the “slow it the [censored] down” pop that comes up? You’re not banned from the marketplace. You’re just making too many actions in a short period time. It’s a new-ish feature obviously in an effort to curtail bots. If you wait like 30 seconds you can place more. Or, take a half second between placing orders.
I’m sitting here thinking you are all getting banned from the marketplace.

Mine said something like “Please wait to make another transaction” it was pretty obvious as to what I was doing to trigger it. Maybe the messages are different for different people.
Right now I’m having login errors, so I can’t replicate it anyway. I was going to try and see what the message actually said.

That’s what mine said yesterday but now it’s saying account restricted. Which was the same pop up we got when we were falsely restricted earlier in the year. So probably some PTSD but right now the bots are mostly gone and if you slow down / wait after getting the pop up you can use the market as you’d like. Seems like a major W thus far.

@nhacia88_MLBTS I’m going to skip 27, at least. Will be the first MLB the show game I haven’t bought.
Yup same here, spend my $ on something that makes me happy rather then just shake my head at the incompetence of SDS.
-
I like the cool down method, if it means the bots can't put in 25 orders at a time i'm all for it. I can wait when restricted for 30 seconds

As an aside, do you guys enjoy spending so much time buying silvers to exchange?
No judgement at all as i did it a lot last year and made a lot of stubs, but honestly, it was about the most tedious thing I have ever done in gaming and I'd rather just play naseball.

I buy gold equipment, buy all of the ones making profit amd then leave my orders for say 3/4 hours and check which ones have gone through and go from there.
My orders are flying right now, best it's been all year so far
