Probably 100th post of this kind but yeah just that… it’s extremely stifling while botters thrive.

Now IMC would look more stupid than they already are with some of their game design choices (restrictions and limits, I see you auction house limit of # of items posted and team storage shinanegan) if they unlock trade completely.
They tried to combat RMT with their choices on auction house 48 hour hold and no silver trading, now you want them to unlock trading completely? And don’t tell me the 48 hour hold and no silver trading had no effect on RMT, look at the insane pricing on them, $3 for 100k and $9 for 350k? Who in their right mind would buy at that rate?, desperate idiots i guess. They priced it high since they know the flow of customers would be rare, they need to recover their capital (roughly $20 at least, one account for bot another for seller) at the first retard to avail them.
It’s like your telling them, well you tried and got a lot of hate, now give up. Nothing will reach greatness by giving up. What a stupid suggestion.

finally someone that knows what is talking about.
Given that most botters for RMT use stolen credit card data to pay for accounts, this is not really an issue for them.
Yeah, about that… A token (which is worth almost $20) is selling for that price. Given that the token pricing is the best way to determine the silver-dollar exchange rate, one can get twice their money’s worth buying on RMT.

True tokens are currently the only factor deciding the legal silver-dollar exchange rate. But again, only a desperate retard would buy a token just to get silver which only amounts him to 350k as of now. And there is currently no way to increase/buy additional TP other than the founder’s pack in which a person cannot buy additional pack to his steam account for the retarded reason of buying TP. I’d rather use up my 3 instance dungeon per day to try farm arde dagger and sell at auction house to bots, instant 900k. Easier really, just find a boss rush party, hoping for my third dagger today.
I just hope and its highly unlikely IMC will not stick with current pricing of founder’s pack for the pricing of TP on steam.
Except that there are many who bought silver at that rate because it’s really hard to obtain silver through market now. The gold seller are selling at that rate because it’s profitable (or they will lower the rate already).
You underestimated how quickly the gold seller is farming compared to a normal player. They are controlling the market now with the help of trade restriction (because trade restriction actually sharpen the difference of silver earning rate between bots and normal player). If you do realize how many Arde Dagger had been bought off the market by the gold seller, you would know how rich the gold sellers are.
The trade restriction is actually helping the gold seller because they need to spend less resource botting to earn the same amount of money.
Btw, it will cost much less than the usual price if you purchased the EA in some country (such as 3.71 usd in Russia).
Instead of focusing on combating the actual plague which is botting and trying to find a way to more efficiently detected them without hurting the honest player base. They come up with a solution for which there’s absolutely no sign of working as RMT and botting is rampant but also hurts extremely the normal player. I love trading in MMO’s, always have this system is just ■■■■, and it’s absolutely the worst I’ve seen.
Heck it’s terrible even for premium players and for free it’s just pathetic tho they did now state they want to change things… Trading within your account without limit is a must, no two ways about it. Withholding the silver after auction sells is also absolutely the worst idea.
