Yup that's what it reads like just another whine for loot scale removal. I don't believe it will happen though. Prices NEED to RISE again so that farming is worth something again and FUN to do because you know people are going to want to buy what you have. There's always going to be the freeloaders in these games though that want everything for free an easy and that's why the popups of these remove loot scaling threads. Just more lazy people wanting more for nothing imho. I look forward to prices climbing again on superior vigors (already climbing), ectoes and shards (a bit of a climb better invest in them now people or you'll miss out on the profits). It's going to be funny because as people complained about botters and gold sellers it's just going to have a reverse effect as prices will just climb higher now with there being more demand and less supply as botters not only provided gold, but, items as well.

The only thing it changed was the way people farmed, which is only done by the people who care about the economy in some way. Since the people who were joining full teams, instead of going solo saw an no change in gold coming in, how was this changing gameplay?

I'm sorry, I can't help that you are confused.

1. As impressive as those numbers are in a vacuum, they mean very little without the context of how many bots there were to start with. Did they get 90%? Or 9%? Or 0.9%?

2. Presuming they did "eradicate" the problem, prices will fall and your gold will have more purchasing power.

I disagree prices will go up because of less gold in the game or gold sellers and botters who also brought in resources and materials into the game as well. When supply goes DOWN Prices 99.9% go UP.
