How to destroy snipe trade bots
|
As a seller, if someone instantly buys your item, you probably underpriced it and feel a little bad.
As a buyer, if something is a great deal, you will never be the one to get it. Human players will never be able to beat the bots that are plugged straight into the trade site and an sniping optimized game client. Why is buying items a race? If there's a horde of people racing to snipe an item in the first 100 milliseconds it's available, maybe trigger something like a second auction for first 30-60 s item is available Last edited by eddiekna#0595 on Feb 27, 2026, 2:37:04 PM Last bumped on Feb 26, 2026, 3:54:05 PM

or just realize that the real issue is your FOMO.
As a seller, you either A) dont care that you are underselling, or B) aren't doing your due diligence in price checking the item. Either way, its not the bot's or GGG's fault you listed the item for sale at that price. As a buyer, if you stop trying to snipe items, and just acknowledge that the days of the average player being able snatch up underpriced items is coming to an end, youll have a lot less to complain about “Freedom is what we do with what is done to us.”

i don't think much about trade but YES we need bots banned or something in the code to prevent botting of any kind
also im sure if GGG cracks down on RMT by tracing who's using sock accounts to RMT this will go down by 50% at least another reason to add phone protection (at least as an option) since most RMT sites steal and use stolen items Remove (One attempt only mechanics) in this game full of lag spikes, one shots and random disconnects.
2FA and register phone number PLEASE! |
