(just one example) it’s very easy to manipulate this game. Blizzard allows all bots to manipulate this game by NOT actively shutting down their attempt to drive the price of certain items through the roof on the AH. they have recipes that require certain elements - rare enough to manipulate easily. SUCH AS LEYLINE RESIDUE (now 3 times the gold price of what it was just a couple says ago). it’s now 3 times the price on all servers. JUST LIKE REAL LIFE - it ruins the environment in which it exists. GOLD sellers on Ebay and the countless bots in this game are seeking out all of these factors so that they can drive their REAL LIFE PROFITS - at the expense of losing REAL LIFE PLAYERS. WHILE blizzard - the slow moving and unwilling to respond GAMING company watches players get frustrated and walk away - the bots dominate. The bots and those who run them do NOT care what happens to the game. BLEED it while its there then move on to the next game and bleed it.
HOW could you NOT see what’s happening in your own game?
it’s NOT rocket science to watch the price of wow token (now down to 257K) ver the price on ebay. BOTS have MORE power than blizzard in controlling their prices. At some point - blizzard has to hire someone who has takent a couple of basic econ courses. (it’s really not rocket science but it DOES require some basics to see it)
Ever think it’s price could be going up cuz it’s a new season and people are actually using it again

I don’t KNOW why we’re capitalizing random WORDS, because it doesn’t make it easy TO read.
I also don’t understand what you’re ranting about here. Blizz doesn’t control the AH prices. If it’s too expensive, don’t buy it. This is the beginning of a new season. Prices always go up like that.
They study the bot methods, then do a wave of bot bans, fix the bot methods so they can’t do those and then bots find new ways. Rinse, repeat… the cycle continues.
Report bots, report gold selling, don’t buy expensive things.
Just go farm it yourself then.

So your theory is that there are a bunch of bots out there that have somehow managed to take control of that resource in the AH for the ENTIRE NA REGION?!
Yeah, Im not buying it.
Especially when they have no control over supply. So they would have to buy every single one posted by every single player.

Need a lot of it to make mana oils… price went up. Blizzard throttles supply too… have you seen the price of kaheti?
No one around here remembers what happened with tinderboxes either.
It has nothing to do with “bots”
Uh. That’s a bit contradicting, your ‘argument’ is quite confusing.
If bots had a big hand in the Leyline Residue market then the prices would’ve gone down drastically. But because they don’t, prices went up (as expected!) at the start of a new patch where everyone and their mothers buy this rare stuff.
