The reasons for the symptoms can have similar root causes. Both the TP and the gem shop are slower to load assets and data than say 12 months ago.

Ameepa.6793 Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 Yeah, It has been like this for months now. Very slow and laggy. Especially in the mornings (EU time). Sometimes in the evenings it is a bit better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dying Oblivion.8296 Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 It's been the worst it's ever been so far. I'm from the UK and its unbelievable how they haven't diagnosed the issue and fixed it in the 4-5 months it's been happening Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deepcuts.9740 Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 I am getting the impression they actually have no idea how to fix some of the more persistent bugs.I mean I can understand not fixing old bugs. No money from that.But the trading post? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This isn't something that is new it has been happening for more than a few months, it's just got so bad it is much more noticeable to a lot more people now.

They dont host their own servers so yea, You would think that the TP would be top of the list of things to make sure works, even if they dont host their own servers anymore, they should be on to whoever does, given Anet push alot of content into the TP its kind of important that it works.This morning the delay for me on the TP was around 25-30 seconds.

Orion Templar.4589 Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 Ever since the rune/sigil patch it's been a bit slow for me as well, but oddly it isn't consistently slow, even on back to back transactions. For example I'll sell first item, it is fast. Sell second item, it is slow. Sell third item it is fast again. Very odd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Abelisk.4527 Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 The trading post and salvage process both slowed down drastically after a particular update. I thought it was because of double salvaging for lucent motes but i noticed the numbers on my mystic gears going down a lot slower than before.

What makes you think that the issue is their servers?What if the issue is that the volume of requests increased from x to 10x due to a recent change? Then they need to find a way to increase the capacity of the system without any of us noticing that they are working on the system. I don't know what the issue is. I don't know if they've decided the symptoms are too minor to get prioritized over other issues.In short there are lots of reasons for ANet not to have resolved this yet.

Michael.9403 Posted February 5, 2019 Share Posted February 5, 2019 I second the complaint. The TP has been hideously slow for several months now. Not just the holiday rush, but before, during and now after. Like everyone else, I delay emptying bags until I am forced to, then sell it off. Typically I open both a vendor and the TP, and work down the inventory, vendoring things that won't go on the TP, and deciding on the TP to either sell immediately or list, as some price. In every instance, there is a palpable delay before the TP returns to my list of things to sell. It occurs at different times of day, so doesn't seem to be related to number of players logged in, which suggests a different kind of situation going on.

HunterStern.2893 Posted February 8, 2019 Share Posted February 8, 2019 One solution to the latency that I have experienced is to use the TP interface for selling while I am in a home instance (any of the capitals). One issue that people have to understand is that the client is communicating data simultaneously with other clients besides servers. Going into an instance (alone) might reduce some of the load on your client. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ol Nik.2518 Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 I am on the West Coast, US. I play on Mac and use 'I am Evon Gnashblade' mode.I experience frequent delays on both buy and sell orders. Additionally, money for cancelled orders is also delayed. Sometimes I manage to put a new order or cancel another one before the money appears in the delivery box.Lately, I also noticed a glitch with freshly account-bound items. If I unlock a skin when the TP window is open the game incorrectly lists this newly bound item as still sellable. If I try to sell them I receive an error message. Compacting inventory or closing/re-opening TP seems to solve this error. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dying Oblivion.8296 Posted February 17, 2019 Share Posted February 17, 2019 BLTC seems really bad around this time.... lags every trade, and in one instance even 'froze up' completely for 2mins because it couldnt connect to the server.I see the other thread that was talking about it got deleted, so I assume this one will too because they dont want to hear people bellyaching how bad the experience with BLTC is.

Sleepwalker.1398 Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 OK i'm kinda getting little tired of having to go and delete the folders to get Trading Post response times to work properly.Either in WvW or in Lions Arch, 1 item will list fine then the next 2 will take ages to say that it was listed.Will this get addressed anytime soon?

turin.2468 Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 For me it simply stopped working altogether about 2 weeks ago for no apparent reason.Tried all the troubleshooting ideas out there. Remove cache, reinstall, the netsh thing, a different user on my computer, all with the same result.It always gives me this error dialogue: net::ERR_ABORTED Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turin.2468 Posted March 2, 2019 Share Posted March 2, 2019 I got the error net::ERR_ABORTED to disappear and the trading post to work again.Sharing below how I managed this here if others run into the same issue. This works for Windows 10, 64 bit.Hope it can be helpful. :o)Open a prompt as administrator.Run ipconfig /flushdnsRun ipconfig /registerdnsOpen the control panel.a. Go to Network and Sharing Center.b. Click Change adapter settings in the left-hand side menu.c. Right-click the Local Area Connection icon and select Properties in the context menu.d. Select the entry called "Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4)" and click Properties.e. Select the General tab and change the selected radio button called "Obtain DNS server address automatically" to the radio button called "Use the following DNS server addresses".f. In the field called "Preferred DNS server:" enter the values 8.8.8.8g. In the field called "Alternate DNS server:" enter the values 8.8.4.4h. Click Ok and close all opened windows. Start the game again and the trading post should now work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarpan.9074 Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 The TP seems to be back to running normal speed for me today. We'll see if it lasts this time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gameplay is smooth, no lag, no disconnections, steady 60-80 ping, EU servers! This has been an issue for weeks.https://youtu.be/iEyfEp8fOsYThis video makes my TP look fast... Takes 5-15 seconds to sell or list each item. Maybe I need to reinstall GW2? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dying Oblivion.8296 Posted June 4, 2019 Share Posted June 4, 2019 Bump - Problem still exists - though im starting to believe that this has become a 'standing feature' of the BLTC that wont get fixed. There has never really been an official response apart from gaile or someone saying they were having one of their teams look into it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
