Too many verification attempts
-
In my military career, when discussing training counter tactics in tactical aviation, we often reminded ourselves of an elemental truth: "Don't do the enemy's job for them!"
Meaning, don't get so aggressive at flying low, that you impact the ground and destroy your own airplane, thereby doing the enemy's job for them.
The BOTS have a central goal of denying the community market from legitimate use. Denying legitimate customers use of the market does the job of these people who employ these BOTS.

PLEASE FIX THIS [censored]!!! I was locked out for the entire day, waited until 8, was able to use it for an hr and NOW IM LOCKED OUT FOR 23 HOURS AGAIN!!! This is completely unacceptable and just down right pathetic at this point, this is my first year ever playing this and itll probably be my last, first you ban my account for no reason, i email you and you unban it, then you banned my console and when i emailed you about that you just ignore it, so i had to buy a new xbox just to play this stupid [censored] like the idiot i am, and now this app just arbitrarily is banning people for verification attempts and its only the first time using it for the day??? DO BETTER

@DiamondDemon25_XBL same is happening to me. I only did one, successful, verification attempt, got to use the market for an hour, then timed out. Funny how the bots seem to not get timed out.

@SiberiaTigerCub_PSN yeah bc the bots help them inflate their market in hopes we are stupid enough to still be buying stubs this late in the year i guess… unless they dropped a player where they said you will get a home run every time and will throw a perfect game, i will never give them a cent more then to just buy the game, and even at this point idk if ill do that again bc the experience has been so awful, i wish they never brought this game to xbox and kept if on playstation at this point

You should ask the app store to issue a refund

@Dolenz_PSN for a free app?? Lol

I'm told that the team made some adjustments to prevent excessive lockouts while more work is done. If anyone continues to experience this, let me know here. Thanks!

It said: “Try again in 4h 14m You can continue browsing the Market while you wait.” I didn’t use the app since last night and I’m locked out from making transactions

Two things here I cannot comprehend. First, if SDS devoted one tenth of the human talent and resources to upgrading the custom content modes of this game (Stadium Creator, Uniform Creator, and Logo Editor), it would make a far more beneficial impact on the game than the community market.
Second, after several months of near relentless focus, the bots appear to not only be winning the battle, but causing SDS to further anger customers through overly restrictive applications.
I'm not faulting SDS for trying to win the good fight. I'm certainly condemning those people who employ bots and other cheat code options to harm the game. But, at the root of all this comes this unalterable fact. This is supposed to be a baseball video game and not some effort to emplace a virtual model of commodity trading.
Perhaps one day, SDS's leadership will make Sony executives appreciate that reality and allow them the resources needed to make long overdue upgrades to this video game.
