I really like this.

I could be considered as a person who “behaves like a bot”, except I never use -0.01 isk : I always remove a percentage, and if it’s too low I reset my sell order to a higher value (so I will sell later, but for higher value), after making other “competitors” go down. And I hate this gameplay. For example, I made some prices go down to -50% of SO(300M-\>100M by reduction of 10% each time) and still sold my items with a correct margin, ensuring people who wanted to compete had to sell with a lower margin that I accepted. So all the people who just compete on the 0.01 are at loss. And by this, I mean the bots or bots-behaving players.

I’m glad if I that means people will stop this activity that does not bring anything to the game.

I mean it’s not like I actually called for this
