I read lots of complaints about the botters and the rapid decrease of the value of the items.

I play Diablo to earn FG. I get a good rush from finding valuable items to sell. The large influx of bots is obviously not good for me
Blizzard fails to build a good system to fight the bots mainly because they sell a single copy and does not earn extra money after that (Blizzard plz buy d2JSP!)

If it was done in a non-profit way, as in if it didn't involve real money, then it would be a good idea. I do trade if i play a ladder season, but only for myself and gearing my characters.

The problem isn’t the bots.

The problem is there is no real market to sell to. Because blizzard killed pvp. If you want to make fg, contact blizzard and tell them they need to fix pvp.

They need an active representative at the largest D2R communities

Fixing PvP won't fix the market. The market crashes because 90% of the items become worth 5-10 fg after a week, leaving super rare items, hrs, and a handful of uniques the only thing left worth hunting for.

PvP items already have a market because they're still hard to obtain. They need to close the gap by making all uniques themselves harder to find in general or removing bots so the demand can keep up with supply for even the most basic things.

no I just play the OG game. none of this remake nonsense.

Bots are not the biggest issue. There are known dupes that have yet to be patched. Bots take time. These people have been duping hrs and ruined the economy singlehandedly. Bots need to be taken care of, but in light of duping, it is not the priority. They need to patch these asap or this game will not reach season 2.
