Banned for using Trade-Macro

"
The trade system is player friendly, i've had no problem using it buying or selling.

Ofc. You also can put your pants over your head. It doesnt mean that it is alright. Payer friendly system at least will not require you to switch to other window if you want to buy something.

More to say... Look at the trading system in PS4 version. Whats the problem to do the same for PC?

While i totally agree that players, who used macroses, violated ToS and got the ban they deserve, it doesnt mean that the game automatically becomes good. It need A LOT of changes to be done.
To argue with a fool means to sink to his level.
are you sure that the only third party software he use is the trade macro. are you 100% sure?
Spamming a channel or spamming people with messages... Where are the "friends" in this mess ?

I heard, it allows to set item to trade, then if it was sold just get your currency when you return.

Anyway, current trading system is bad, because you need to swap to other program. And also because list of items in trade doesnt updated instantly (which results: you trying to buy item, but cant, because it is sold already. And it happens 95% of time: you writea message but get no respond. It is stupid)

You know what the term 'user friendly' and 'intuitive' means? It doesn't sound so.

A player-friendly trade system would do the work for the player as much as possible. PoE's doesn't, hence utter garbage and not 'player-friendly'.
Also it's not in the least intuitive. Let someone start up the game, play and then he wants to buy/sell something. Good luck with finding out that:
a) he needs a premium stash-tab to sell (which alone that is baffling enough)
b) he needs to use an external platform (even if first-party) to search for item.
c) after that both buyer and seller have to meet up still with all issues involved regarding interaction between players.

Good system... never had any problem.

Either you're not using it often or you're literally lying.

The problem is that players are not player friendly so when it comes to trade or basic conversation they manage to fuck it up.


I got an idea, it sounds really crazy though: How about letting an automated system be the 'middle-man'? I know, revolutionary idea, surely we need a decade longer to make that happen.
Ah... no... those systems are existing in games with dedicated severs that interact since a decade already... right, just not here.

Because that garbage is even worse despite being automated.

GGG simply butchered a working system into 2 separate piles of utter shit.
I actually can't decide which one is worse.

You can't search for an item at the console version, you can search for ALL amulets for instance. ALL of them... every... single... one. No matter if good/bad/underpriced/overpriced, just everything.
Good luck with that!
GGG balance is like getting a pizza which is burnt on the sides, raw in the middle and misses the most of the toppings.
Then upon sending it back you get a raw side, burnt middle and enough toppings to drench everything in grease.
Everything fixed but still broken.

WAT

by "program," do you mean... browser? like the one you were using to type that post?

and you messaged someone about an item that was already sold? how awful. that must have been a traumatic experience. ggg will have to make an AH now!


edit: and this turned into yet another 'we need an AH' cry-fest. it's as if ggg's stance on this has been established and clearly stated. for years.

Rob, right terminology.
The program used to play PoE = client
The program used to look up items to trade = Browser

You can't start up PoE in your internet explorer, have you tried it already? Opera, Firefox, Safari, Chrome, EDGE... they all don't let you do that for some reason! I know, baffling.

Also, 'an item already sold'. Try to buy fossils at a busy time, good luck with messaging the first 80 people in the list. If you want to go ahead and simply go down the list you'll need around 5 minutes per fossil.
The only reason why bulk-buy is actually a thing, which it shouldn't be.

Yes yes, he can put it into the forum as well, which is a lot easier to find out, right?

how did you miss the point THAT badly?

why do you think i mentioned THE BROWSER HE USED TO TYPE THE POST?

i never said it was the wrong terminology.
i never implied it was the wrong terminology.

i think i made it clear it's a befuddling (moot) argument, since WE ALL HAVE (and use) BROWSERS.
