Do not use awakened poe trade
" If it was just an "overlay" you wouldn't have functions like auto message macros and such. Therefore there are sure some interactions with the client for sure lol. Flames and madness. I'm so glad I didn't miss the fun.

" Afaik the red line from GGG for stuff like this is that 1 user action (like clicking a button) is allowed to cause only 1 server side action. GGG doesn't care here about the amount of client side actions. E.g. sending a predefined message with the name of the adressed player via via button is fine, because it causes only 1 server side action (actually sending the message). Everything else happens on client side. /edit: my two cent's to the topic: Without any proof (like a message from support that clearly said why your account got banned) I don't belive that Awakened PoE Trade was the reason. or in order to use a more popular phrase: Pic or it didn't happen! You say Prison Cell, I hear 'Holiday'. Last edited by Judaspriester on May 3, 2023, 8:34:34 AM

" Not the kind of interaction op is talking about. It's such a no issue nobody got banned for using it since it was created, including its predecessor that I don't remember the name. Those who said they got banned for it are just lying or assuming that was the reason when it was something else. This is the exact same with stuff like ACT in FFXIV. People ask if it's ok, devs say "no, but as long as it doesn't hack the client and you don't pester people in game about it we don't give a f". Last edited by bauermayers on May 3, 2023, 10:23:15 AM

I've heard of poe banning for stuff like this. Hell they banned a group for a bug they found in.... circle league, Ultimatum?
Sometimes they swing the banhammer. 99% of the time they don't. I don't use this party apps because I can't trust them. If poe trade is bannable they communicate it. Also it is possible you used a feature that is forbidden, but the general app is fine. Who knows. |

You can clearly see on this topic that sending search queries to the trade website via third party tool is not bannable:
https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/3215533 Stop spreading lies without proof. I've been using awakened poe trade for a long time. | |
" They didn't ban them for finding the bug, they got banned for continuing to exploit it after they found it. And the banned group knows that and acknowledged that. I don't know what the guy that opened the thread did, but I am pretty sure he does not think it has anything to do with awakened poe trade. | |
" Because of this, only use open source 3rd party apps. Ofc open source alone doesn't mean anything, but for popular stuff like poe trade, you can be sure that some people who are able to understand the code have already checked for unwanted behavior. About the Banhammer in Ultimatum league, yes I remember that there was one, but that was IIRC related bigger amounts of exploit usage, not something "simple" as a 3rd party trading tool. Besides that, let's use some common sense: already if you check the download numbers, you can estimate that a significant part of the community is using that tool (including a brunch of streamers). So if using it would be a reason to be banned, you would see alot of people complaining about their accounts being banned and not just a single one. So I don't see a single reason to believe the OP, especially without any kind of proof. You say Prison Cell, I hear 'Holiday'.

The most likely cause for an undeserved ban is being in a guild with heavy RMTers and using their guild stash. That's the only plausible reason I've seen put forth on Reddit. Did a friend drop you x divines to get your league started? Your friend most likely bought his currency.
There may have been a period when searches were unlimited that people were getting falsely banned for too many searches with 3rd party apps. Never heard of anyone being permabanned and that's no longer an issue. |

" IF that is 100% true, then tell us HOW you were using it? Because just using it for pricing here and there will never get you banned. Or else thousands of other people will have been making that same claim. So you had to have been doing something nefarious. It's perfectly fine to use, I've been using it since inception along with thousands of other people....and yet we haven't been banned. Weird. | |
