I really do appreciate the communication and all the work, @manu__sds_mlbts

The bots are back to pre-restrictions levels sadly.

@manu__sds_mlbts Hi Manu! Thank you for working so hard on this. Market is still heavily botted at the moment. It seems as if any cards with positive margins is affected. Just providing current feedback

@Manu__SDS_MLBTS thank you Manu! The app has worked fantastically tonight and you can tell the difference with the marketplace margins. I had a couple of error messages earlier today but after signing out and back in that cleared them. Appreciate all you do!

Yeah I think at this point the restrictions are hurting the human market activity more so than limiting the bots. I think the bot activity is down 50% or so on a card to card basis. But, the cards the bots are actively on are just as bad as ever.

@Bridge-Piece_XBL bots are definitely still present. Not as consistent. Not every card. But I am aware what bot behavior looks like versus human behavior. You can see in this video that bots are still present as of 8am CT this morning: https://drive.google.com/file/d/174rG8peFll0IJ8BWzaVJRHfqlh9fqGXM/view?usp=drivesdk.

I’m very very thankful SDS is attacking this problem and communicating. And the issue is better, but not completely resolved. @manu_sds_psn

Agreed with the above. 3-4 felt too restrictive. But 10 felt like a decent medium ground if that’s the strategy moving forward. Because the bots are back in full force

Yeah the bots are as worse as they've ever been right now

@manu__sds_mlbts bots are as bad as they have ever been. I think we would love to hear an update before the weekend if possible.

@Beaterrr_XBL I don’t think this is true at all. At least when it comes to player cards. More bots means the margins get smaller and smaller as the bots repeatedly underbid/overbid the human offers. Plus it’s really easy to see how active the bots are right now. I can send proof on any card with a positive margin right now.

I just got hit with the error “please wait 20 minutes before sending another marketplace request” which seems excessive

Now it’s 40 minutes. All I was doing this morning was casually flipping player cards. But now I can’t place an order at all even after waiting the allotted time @manu__sds_mlbts

I’m now at 2 hours before I can use the app again even though I haven’t used it since 10am.
