1) People who stick up two quid bets at hundreds of price points way below and above the market, just to fvck up other punters ladder/market info views.
Ironically appropriate punishment: staked out and bled to death by a thousand ticks.

totally fvcks up market views because ladders have to show hundreds of irrelevant price points. so if you load it up you have to waste time getting to the relevant but.
take a look at the germany outright price. 2 quid up at every price point between 1.01 and the market price. total fvcking filth. |

Why use ladders? I never did understand the point.

nor do I as it goes, but some people do - and it has the same effect on market info pages.
no reason to do it other than to sabotage the accessibility of the info other people are using. |

It does serve a decent purpose though in fairness. If you're first to lay a given price, there's a decent chance you're getting the best of the proposition in the long run.
Similarly I can't stand the £6 bot that scours the whole site looking for outright markets and jumps in front based on a pretty decent algorithm. I hate it, but i'm sure it turns a surprisingly big profit, so I can't realistically call it vermin, though it certainly kills liquidity in some low level side markets |

so your moaning about ladder views but don't use them ffs

that would be true lori, except it's 2 quid at every point.
no problem with people putting up early offers below the market to catch value later, but this isn't that. |

trappers obviously - there seems to be a new breed at the moment
penny pinchers that don't understand when some money joins them at the same price YOU ARE STILL AT THE FRONT OF THE QUEUE you don't have to keep moving up the ar$e that keeps copying my bets |
