Not sure there so much they can do. sure they can get rid of chat spam, ban people, and could try go for websites but another will just pop up. Unfortunately peoples greed ruins it for everyone I'm surprised GGG haven't added p2w to combat it.

They could turn player trading off in one patch till can find a better solution.

But they won’t. Cos they know.

This is true, the forums will just be filled with more Complaining though lol

Trading was allways a poe thing and that get ruined.

So they should take legal actions against the websites, they could do it because it is their game.

RMT is not what is ruining the ingame economy, it's the magic find going on right now. You can see on reddit, or also some streamers, people running very high magic find and doing high rarity maps with breach are dropping numerous divines a map and like hundred+ exalts.

play ssf. Problem solved

The only way to truly solve RMT is to make currency gains so low it's not even worth it to pay some 3rd world workers pennies to farm the stuff.

Of course that kind of drop rate would also make it impossible to earn anything for a casual player. So there's the problem.

They can also lock trading behind a really high level. But that just presents upfront cost for the farmer and bots/3rd world workers can get damn efficient with these things.

I dont see MF as a isssue, the issue is that all that orbs etc. not reach the player market.
Stuff got more and more expensive ingame.
I still say they should take legal actions against the websites, that cost no dev time, just the time of lawyers.

Devs themselves might be engaging in RMT as shown in reddit threads.

What lol. If you are referring to that 1 thread where someone was asked to buy their ingame item on paypal, was not a dev, it was a joke in the comment section.

Damn, why didn't anyone think of that?

Just sue everyone, problem solved. That's why pirate sites no longer exist today.

Oh my sweet summer child. If you think RMT is the reason why the market crumbles I have very bad news for you.

Here... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3rUx2rQC_-w

In short.. stack tons of rarity.. juice up maps.. do breach.,. get rich. Ofc its easier said than done but thats how it is in rich people get richer while peasants stay peasants systems.

RMT is nothing compared to that. This isnt diablo 4.

4 years ago + this was not official, it was definitely some rogue dev and shareholder and I doubt it has happened since and they got into serious trouble.
