@JDHalfrack_PSN a bot is all about repeating processes

I get that. Can’t the repeating process be smarter/more tactful? I know, we would just prefer there were no bots at all, but my programming side is more frustrated at how they are programmed to operate than the fact that they exist 😂

Yeah, I, too, was able to make a few stubs yesterday in the market. I didn’t get all my bids, but I wasn’t “one stubbed” to death! It was very refreshing.

First time I received that notification this morning. I'm not mad about it. First time in weeks I've been able to make stubs on the market.

@VOReason1976_XBL said:

@JDHalfrack_PSN yeah they run a program linked to the companion app.

I guess that makes sense. Easier to access app controls I suppose? I’m guessing it’s impossible to have a bot run on the actual console.

The thing that I’ve always found funny about the bots is that they’re basically stupid. It’s gotta be possible to create a bot that doesn’t “act like a bot“ and have it still be profitable. They just make these things so easy to notice.

@samguenther1987_PSN not surprised as the program will be adapted to cope with the measures put in place.

Do the bots have to use the app? I guess I'm a little lost as to how they function.

You have to slow down now in placing buy and sell orders. Go too fast and you get the “ account restricted “ notice. Basically, a cool down.

@samguenther1987_PSN That's great to hear, man.

I haven't really used the app much recently but the bots drove me to distraction.

Have you encountered any restrictions?

Yes, but for the 30 seconds i'm restricted i just watch my show or movie and then resume, I normal place my orders and then leave them for awhile anyway so it doesn't bother me much.

What bothered me up to this weekend is no orders would seem to go though and the bots would have 20 to 28 orders ahead of my order at all times, so yes i'm very encouraged by this weekend.
