Is it even possible to farm PP anymore

[DeletedUser3561]

Now, I wont lie, I am far from the most active when it comes to farming PP, I do it rather lazily. Despite this however, about 6-7 worlds ago I could quite comfortably make 15k+ while being lazy. This world has been open for 1 week and the price of res is already at 200, with the market being almost full. I know it's all the bots that are active on .US worlds now days (if whoever is doing that reads this, honestly, neck yourself) but surely there is a way to stop this happening, especially since its been, what, the last 4 worlds? You'd think *something* would change.

There are no bots in world 39.Reason why market is flooded so fast these days is the fact that scavenging bring a lot of res to pp farmers.
Also, w39 has more sellers than buyers by far.The market is reasonably ok still, I was expecting it to go on higher ratios at this stage.


Bots usually filled around 30-40% of the market.But now pp gained from bots can't be traded, so there are no bots at the moment, pp gained through the exchange lost it's value.So the market on w39 and future worlds will be better.I'm sure you will see the market stay at low ratios in future more contested worlds.

Also, another factor for the market going bad soon is the high speed.It's always been this way, when everything is fast you don't feel the need to buy more res, therefore ratio goes higher as less people want to buy.

hmm, there must be some big spenders in my K, exchange still mostly empty...

To be honest they did the only thing possible to stop the mass botting and it's more or less worked, I personally wouldn't say there are no bots though.

I do agree with the rest however, speed, buyers /sellers ratio on the world but it seems K specific, one or two Ks got a much higher ratio far faster but if you wait it does drop back to 75/85 at this stage.
