So my friend was in my shop. She bought 20 silo from me. In totally separate but nearby slots, I put 20 more. They never appeared to her. They were there for a few seconds. BOT snatched. Only then did they appear to her. Does the software work by delaying the appearance of items to others?
Also, if we have been targeted because we shared our farm ID number here, then why has another friend been targeted when she hasn't shared her farm ID with anyone?
Its probably not because you shared your ID, more likely because you (both) often help other farms, watering and filling boats.So you appear in the "last helpers" list to some botter/hacker.
Whenever you put something in your shop there may be server lag. I notice this when transferring stock between two of my farms. Sometimes items appear in the shop immediately; on other occasions there can be a short delay before they show.Quote:

This was at least a ten minute lag because I stopped and messaged her to let her know I had put more in shop -- in totally different slots. If you put in the same slot, someone coming in can see them before the person waiting for the slot to refresh can. She said the screws did not show up in my shop until I messaged her. That's a long delay.
I still cannot get an answer as to how the BOT knows I'm selling. Will I ever be able to give upgrade to someone without her getting it first?
I also haven't helped anyone in ads in days. I will no longer help anyone that way, nor will I ever trade with anyone from here.
Wow. That's harsh. Helping farmers is a big part of this game. Have you been doing boat orders during the event? If yes, then anyone who catches you on the most recent contributors list on the event board can visit your shop. I've never heard of a bot hanging out in someone's shop buying stuff.Quote:

I've finished upgrading all my buildings now that I've reached sizes divisible by 100 or 1000 (6000/5000/500 B/S/T). So I've been enjoying helping others upgrade. I was still trading some to help others and almost always added extra upgrade and sometimes extra products. My shop also is nearly always full of products including the really good stuff to help people.
As for helping boats, if I ever bought anything from a RSS and the person had crates open, I filled. If I ever bought an upgrade item from a shop, I filled regardless of what the crate asked for -- feathers, lobsters, anything.
This BOT stealing thing has ruined it for me. I've run several tests, and the tests have confirmed it is a BOT. Once Supercell figures out how to deal with this, maybe I can return to usual play. ☹️
