I don't know what your agenda is whether it comes from plain ignorance, or it's from protecting yourself, protecting friends or something else. But stop spreading FALSE information about that their isn't a marketboard botting problem cause it's there right in front of you. It's so massive that you can't even miss it!! And if your server is so blissfully unaffected then just plain acknowledge that other servers have a huge problem.
Where did I say there's not a market bot problem?

Not once have I said there is no market bot problem.

Instead of accusing me of misrepresenting things or spreading false information, you need to stop misrepresenting what I'm saying.

What I have said is that despite the existence of the market bots, it is still possible for crafters to profit by selling items on the MB. That's 100% true. I do it daily. I do it with the items the bots are mainly ignoring. If the bots start selling what I'm selling, I go find something else.

I have said there are other factors depressing the market in addition to the bots. That is also 100% true. If you're going to be good at the marketboard game, you've got to know what's driving all of your competition and not just one part of it.

You can decide to play the victim and loudly proclaim how bots have ruined your game life, or you can take back control of your game life and enjoy it despite the bots.

I chose to do the latter. I'm not letting things outside of my control ruin the game for me. It might take a bit more effort but I'm still making gil on the MB. I'm still having fun.

Are you doing what you can to make sure you still have fun and enjoy the game? It's in your hands.
