Stub buying/community market issues
-
Well when they are openly admitting to using the site. Thats a problem.
-
I wanted to see what the show community thinks of buying stubs off of thrid party websites. Lots of streamers support this while ive seen sds have issues with that and banning them. Obviously, the default stubs you can buy on the market are too overpriced and is unfair with the value. I just want to spend money on the game for players while not be punished for trying to buy them in such manner that i get banned. what should i do?
Why would any entertain doing this? These 3rd parties sites are ruining the marketplace with their bots. If anything SDS should send cease and desist letters for using their likeness.

Are we all ignoring the fact that a person is on an SDS owned forum asking that, I mean I get stubs are expensive, but yeah asking to get banned
-
Actually the one streamer on YouTube was openly promoting cheap stubs from a 3rd party site but never actually bought any and still got banned from online
-
I’ve seen yfk and braken promoting the same third party stub site, that signals to most people that’s it’s ok to do if a major streamer that is clearly visable to sds openly promotes it. It’s like 1 million stubs for 50 bucks, would explain the hyper inflation we’re seeing

If that's the case then why is SDS promoting 50% off stubs to PS5 users for the past week? Wouldn't that intensify the issue?

That’s some crazy patience but good for you. I have a heck of a time selling equipment with the constant under bids.

Stub selling sites actively make the game significantly worse and anyone who supports them or advertising them does not care one bit about the game.
Its very likely stub sellers are why they took away the 9 IP mission for MP progress as an example

Yes, that is why all these cards are absolutely ridiculous. I've seen 3 streamers promoting this site with discount codes. How can one person get banned but not these 3? Just another shady thing in a long line of shady things from SDS this year.
With the bots/3rd party stub sites and the cheaters, legit players are getting bent over really hard this year. Will be interesting to see if SDS gets punished for it next year.

Probably unpopular with investors but I think this needs to happen, SDS needs to increase the accessibility of the rarer cards and also they need to do a hard correction on the marketplace to devalue stubs somewhat to discourage people from buying stubs from third party sites. I think to some degree SDS caused this mad rush to third party sites. Their greed kinda backfired to some degree instead of funneling people to their stub store it forced people to third party sites seeking better values on their real money spent.

It's sad SDS is more worried about people buying stubs from other websites than they are fixing the numerous issues they created within the game. Maybe, just maybe, if they fixed the gameplay, people might be willing to spend money on stubs the right way.

I would settle for SDS fixing the bot problem both online and in the market

Appreciate all that was said, really do. At the end of the day, i hope MLB the show decreases the prices of stubs, similar to stub sale days. In the end, its better to just grind for the players you want to get and have fun.
-
If they really wanted to fix the problem of 3rd party stub buying, they shouldn't go after people that buy the stubs. They should focus on the accounts that sell the stubs. Think of the RIAA and Napster back in the day. They tried to go after downloaders, but that was like putting a band aid on a crack in the Hoover dam. Going after the uploaders that constantly provided all those files was the only feasible way to go about it. Go after the sellers accounts and you nip it in the bud without banning even more of the playerbase.
