100's of unfair Market listings

Not corrupt or immoral, it's mainly spam due to the vast quantities a very few players list.
It's similar to the constant annoying ads we get when browsing the web, if Inno decide to do something about it they have plenty of options.
Similar approach which they have in place in Global chat you cant send send message twice, maybe they could use same method for trades centre:?

why do players invent there own rules when it comes to trade ?
players can post up any trade they wish, if people except that then they have one less thing to moan about in the game.

unfair trades are still trades,
maybe players know there is a stock shortage so there trying to cash in ? who knows ? but its none of your business what others do in the game. so long as its not cheating in the game rules.

But you really don't need to watch 10s of clean unfair trades in the market, it literally looks like one player owns the whole market. :rolleyes:

There isn't any option to stop it yet, but something can be worked out, not to fight against those trades, but to be able to find the trade you need in the sea of trades of that type. One way is to display stacks of the same type trades as one, similar to the feature in message center when posting trades.
That's one of the ways to keep the market more organized and not "flooded".

Shouldn't we complain about the 1:10 Merchant trades? only if you are desperate for 1 good to complete a sector... Also GE starts with low level goods and when in higher eras the one level down could take ages as you run short. I messaged a trader once that did masses of duplicate 5 good trades as so small and cost a fortune in fps if taken...no reply...now if the seller got the fp it might make sense.
