PoEconomics: Belton's Market Manifesto (WIP)

"

After reading the topic I came to conclusion the trade system in the game needs to be fixed or even completely removed. The reason why Chris doesn't want to make trade easier is literally described clearly in this thread.

Ppl playing the market instead of playing the game.

Lol, people are playing the market in every MMO - even with auction house. And what is wrong with it?

If you want it removed just play SSF, nobody stops you from that.

The game is not balanced around SSF. Playing the market instead of playing actual game is the primary reason why we have relatively shitty drop rates, tons of useless rares and have to play the game like it is second low wage job.

If you like to play market, better to choose something different, like FX / CFDs / Stocks / Options / Futures / Fossils / Crypto. PoE is about killing monsters.
