How to stop botters and RMT

I think rmt sites and bots really does not matter that much. At least for me. I could not care less about someone buying currency.
The currency they buy does not create any injustice since there is nothing to compare or compete in the first place. Poe is all about your own experience with ur own build. Wheter its a group play or solo play.
The only problem i can think of is ingame echonomy being affected by bots and bot owners.
Now that i think of, best solution would be detecting these currency sellers and just banning out the buyers. This way rmt sites would have nothing to sell and profit for.

I would pay that 5$ anytime. them chaos recipe are killing me inside.

Maybe that 5$ fee could enable the chat (well could be read only in freemode), enable trading etc + a free premium tab something like this

I think there definitely has to be a wall for this botters to get into trading, not sure if making the game pay to play or disabling trade until you buy something, but this ban waves from GGG seem really uneffective. Even if you don't care about people buying currency, then the market is screwed which ends up affecting you unless you play SSF, which is done by a small minority of people.

I just think it's pretty discouraging for someone who puts hard work into the game to see all these guys with headhunters and mirrors on the 3rd day of league. Just watch this. I think solving this is a priority issue for the health of the game and GGG should do something effective once and for all. I see a lot of people here just criticizing and not even suggesting a better solution.

If anyone else has an idea, be it good or bad, please share, i think we can help with this issue.

Ok, here's a bad idea:

Problem: Botters Using Chaos Recipe

Solution: Require every trade with an NPC vendor include a Turing test for the buyer. If you can't prove you are human you cannot trade with the NPC.

More seriously, but still bad, for bots that are farming div cards I say move all div cards that return any currency or high value item to maps. Bots don't map, right? ;)

The REAL solution here will have to involve some form of actual investment on GGG's part. There's no "automatic system" that will really block all the bots without INDIRECTLY driving off a lot of players. (and hence income)

So what they're going to have to do, for at least part of it, is improve the game's in-game moderation. An admin who can see those bots moving in a way no player would could easily gain suspicion, and with decent powers get solid enough evidence of it being an actual bot within seconds.

Slap on a ban, record the IP address for further monitoring, and move on. As this goes, this will gather more information to properly identify the people running networks of bots, where they can be targeted in ways they can't just sidestep by paying another $5 (or whatever) entry fee.

they could offer more ingame options (trading, chat?) if you register your account with a real life identity.

you can only effectively ban identities, it never made sense for anonymous or just anonymously purchased accounts.

in fact i had a hard time supporting this game now, knowing that only if you support you can be punished by some community guy doing a mistake.

luckily for them, i started playing when they were much more open to the community and established alot of trust this way.

Only solution would be the captcha in the trade window or simple math question with 4 choices like 3*57=?
