I just learned of it today. And I'd bet there are others who, unless you read Inara or Prock daily, did not know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pussycat Catnap Posted March 7, 2014 Share Posted March 7, 2014 This is VERY UNFORTUNATE. Its going to make it extremely difficult to offload unwanted land without using abandon... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But from what I'd been reading, recently the Bots were only snatching up land priced at 0.1 or 0.2L per sqm. I've been watching larger plots, 4096 or bigger selling pretty steadily and I don't think the bots are getting them. Reason being that as the Grid has been sub divided larger plots have become rarer and 'real' people are shopping for them. ETA, years ago this would have been very welcome when people were screaming about the Bots snatching up land. Today, it almost seems like a non issue. Makes you wonder why suddenly this has happenned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pussycat Catnap Posted March 7, 2014 Share Posted March 7, 2014 0.3 is what I've been able to sell to bots for as recently as a month ago. But even 0.1 is better than 0, and the companies behind the bots can then hold the spot in system until somebody wants it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I imagine the Bots could be programmed to work certain areas. For instance land around Bay City is much more valuable than where I live. So a Bot could be set to buy at a higher price there.
