AH Bots and Yesterday’s Glitch

I think yesterday’s glitch and how it impacted 85s and 86s proved two things about the AH bots.

-First they are more than just a delay. They are 100% designed to control the market, AH and they accomplish that in multiple ways.

-Second as a result of them and the way they currently operate during peak concurrent user hours we struggle to meet the communities consumption of content. Or better said we can’t post cards as fast as we can buy them.

Fits the EA wants to make us more reliant on the store, BND cards and $$ but if the AH is dry during peak hours customers will struggle to interact with content in MUT for several reasons. Am I missing something? Is it obvious to all of you? What do you all think?

What was the glitch/issue?

One of the 87 team builders was QS for 10k training. So there was a mad rush on 85s and 86s to do the set.

Nah it became common knowledge in the mut discord I'm sure some people just saw it and started taking advantage and trying to scalp prices.  I do think the ah has bots but only to buy cards that are set much lower than their median value to stop ppl from sniping

Even if the bots are designed only to randomly delay a card being posted to the AH their impact is greater than you suggest. I believe you are correct about one such bot or function of a bot being to maintain a median value but I don’t think it stops there. Or maybe I should say I don’t think it’s as simple as that.

It amazes me how the most obscure glitch can become "common knowledge". 

For all the problems and complaints about MUT, it's obvious that 1000's eat, breath and live to do nothing but play this game.

Not that there's anything wrong with that. ;)

I like to sprinkle a little cheese on my MUT and throw it in the air fryer for about 5 minutes at 350. Gives it a nice crunchy, gooey layer of sarcasm. Many of us are hopeless when it comes to MUT and we are ok with that because we’ve found a way to make it taste better. Those who call us out just see that cheesy goodness and wish they had some but all they have is fruit cake. Nobody wants fruit cake. It couldn’t have anything to do with our own choices? Right? Culpability? What? Nah… num num num

You guys crack me up.

I see your point. I don’t know how I was so blind before. Clearly the Chinese government is behind the AH bots in MUT. A continuation of their attempt to subvert American culture. We can’t let them win! America!

only one delaying cards from showing on auction house is ea lol
