(CCP please read before you delete)
if they are part of the game and automatically lower peoples orders to 0.01 below the next highest can they be tricked.
IE if you set your sell order very low and then the program follows you and you just buy them out. This is the best way i can think of making people give up on them otherwise in the end it will only be third party programs running the show and regular traders will not stand a chance
thanks for your answers

Well we are letting you talk...
And as for your "internet warrior" rampage...well it's another thing to get trolled and another thing to continue it yourself. It was you who went all "******" when someone said the bots aren't stupid. Guess what, they aren't stupid. Stop whining. |

lmao, OP is an idiot indeed, not because of his illogical assumption that "john does" do not have a set minimum, and that they wont simply just buy you out, if you lower your orders to much. But because he rages like a adhd kid that just had his parrents confiscate his sugarcane, when he gets told he is wrong.

There are a lot of people who make legitimate, insightful comments about this topic. This is a case where I'd bet money the OP isn't even trading against a bot.
There's usually 30-50k people playing eve. If you're in one of only a handful of hubs trading one of only a few hundred or so profitable items, odds are someone else is looking at the same item within a few seconds of when you looked at it.
Also understand that volume is king in eve-trader-game. Letting someone drastically undercut you and sell their items over and over again hurts a lot more then making the plunge with them and soaking up all the volume. Getting 5% all day is better then getting 20% for 1/100th the volume.
Besides, the tears have value. You get bonus points if they whine on the forum about .01 isk undercuts. Triple bonus points if they gripe about programs in the process.

wether or not spytoon is wrong, right or just being a bit silly. An answer like he received from omgfreemoniez is completely out of order! What makes u think u can talk to people like that? Completely rude and ignorant and nothing more. People like that should be told to go fish on another forum, but no there is dozens of other rude pri**s! that will happily support that comment.

Hi Spytoon, sorry for the attitude of my fellow pod pilots.
To address your topic:
- For starters, automated programs that interact with EVE in any way are forbidden. They probably exist and it would not surprise me, but the risk of operating those programs is strictly on the owner's part and carries severe penalties when caught. I recommend searching around for Unholy Rage to get a good overview of CCP's ongoing efforts against bots and macros.
- Regarding the market itself, there is a built-in game mechanic that makes changing your order by 0.01 ISK a little easier than a bunch of typing. When modifying your order, a simple scroll up or down of the mouse wheel will alter the price of the order. Yes, I understand there is a timer between modifications, which brings up my next point.
- Alts. I've not tried it and people would say I am nuts, but picture this situation: You put up a kestrel for 10 isk which is immediately undercut by JohnDoe. You have no chance to catch his order, unless you by your own item with an alt and re-sell it immediately. This idea is purely talking out of my exhaust contrails, so take it with a grain of salt; it's ridiculous in my opinion, but hey... Eve is all about innovation and exploration. It might actually work. I recommend the SiSi testing server first, of course. :)
Hope this helps and that you have better luck going forward. Warmly, "The Bear" JW

yeah I know why these people are so rude on forums, cuz they havent the balls to be so rude in RL,and the only achievement they can come up with is billions of isk on eve. only when they can hide behind their computer do they suddenly get a neck.If u spoke to my face like that I would break your nose and be happy about it. And JI SAMA u are well known on this forum and frankly i dont care for anything u have to say ignorant or not, as you are clearly a nasty person and not to be trusted to be a fair judge of anythin.

Noes the truth has come out, I am a basement dwelling rude ignorant living of my mothers income...
Are you coming to fanfest? you can get the chance to say that to my face! I will even buy you a beer, you can then decide for yourself if you want to break my nose.

Thanks for the decent replies. I got a bit sweary because i was not expecting the abuse or quite that harsh.
The funny thing is that most of these people are hiding behind alt characters as well as you cannot even have your fun wardec with them
1. flakeys that is crazy. You have to have skin like a Rhino to take that mate.
2. Nomkhubulwane i agree with you completely and most people have no neck when you meet them
3. Johnathan Walker; My thanks for your post it explained a lot to me that i did not know. And no need to apologise there are trolls everywhere

I like when alts whine about other people hiding behind alts, and giving out real life threats/ threatening to wardec them, when they cannot make a coherent argument! Nomkhubulwane Spytoon
