    Once again... another thread whining about a "bot" simply because someone doesn't like the game mechanics.

    There is no marketplace "bot". Evony is quiet adept at detecting bots and banning the users who use them.

    Simply because game mechanics are not comprehendable to you does not mean people are running "bots".

    So your explanation to this would then be that someone is sitting around the clock placing bids and offers of the same ammounts over and over just for the fun of it? Or what do you suggest?

    Don't forget the insta-reposting of 2,000,000 resource auctions once you buy or sell them. This instant reaction is possible from a player, but not every time. Especially when the same auction is re-posted instantly at all hours of the day or night. Tent has apparently not read my first post in this thread.

    It is a bot, and I am enjoying taking advantage of the fools who are using it. They are cheaters and deserve getting every overpriced resource I sell them, and losing every underpriced resource I trick their bot into selling to me.

    Ever since the knowledge of bots and Evony's crack-down on bot users in the November/December timeframe, the number of whiney posts claiming "ITS A BOT!" on these forums from players who either don't like the result of some game mechanic, or lack basic understanding of how the game works, how a market economy works, etc. has increased 10x.

    Virtually all of these claims have perfectly legitimate explanations, just as your claim does, although undoubtedly it is easier to play Chicken Little and run around the forums yelling "ITS A BOT!".

    If you enjoy it so much, make so much money/resources off of it, etc, then why are you whining about it?

    I think it's a bot as well, you can see the same thing happening on Server 87 when it comes to the price of lumber and iron. Food they don't seem to mess with, because it isn't as valuable on our server as the other two.

    Tons of small lots put up at ridiculous prices, and then when one gets bought, wham, all of the sudden there's several hundred million dumped on the market at that price. There is no such thing as coincidence where this is concerned, it's obvious price manipulation that no human can keep up with.
