Bypassing Raid Limits

Did it on Dev, don't have the resources to test on Main.

Using the player to player market, not the private trade broker.

Reached raid limit, placed all available UU on the market, went out and reached raid limit again, placed more UU on the market, went out and reached raid limit again, then cancelled the trades(before timer reached zero).

I didn't find anything about it so I'm hoping it's not an issue on main, but I figure better safe than sorry.

Good catch.

This is impossible in the Live environment. It was fixed in Live, as opposed to first fixing it in Dev; the issue persists there until I allocate time to synchronise.

Re: Bypassing Raid Limits

Amidst a growing number of reports that this was actually still possible, we have reviewed and fixed this, now permanently.

Our collective thanks to everyone who reminded me of this. :smt023

Re: Bypassing Raid Limits

In addition to the above, a restriction on the size of public market trades has been implemented. These limits are a significant factor above the largest completed trades for Naquadah and Attack Turns.
For Units however, the maximum trade size now matches the "Buy Cap" (currently ~390M).

As previously mentioned, we will continue to re-evaluate and revise the Public Market.
