Diablo 2 Resurrected Console Trade: Understanding the Restrictions and Workarounds

As gamers eagerly anticipate the release of Diablo 2 Resurrected on console platforms, many fans are looking for ways to trade items and resources with fellow players. However, due to the influx of automated systems and scraping programs, GameFAQs has implemented measures to prevent abuse and ensure a smooth user experience.

What Causes IP Blocks?

Several factors can trigger anti-spambot measures, leading to temporary or even permanent IP blocks. These include:

1. Badly configured browser add-ons: Using scripts or add-ons that don't identify themselves or use fake headers can cause issues.

2. Scraping programs: Running automated programs that overload the search engine or scan for box and screen images can trigger detection.

3. Unofficial apps and emulators: Some unofficial phone apps may be using GameFAQs as a back-end, but they don't behave like real web browsers do. This can cause temporary blocks.

Workarounds and Best Practices

To avoid IP blocks and ensure a smooth gaming experience, follow these guidelines:

1. Use official browsers: Stick to reputable browsers like Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, or Safari.

2. Avoid unofficial apps and emulators: Refrain from using third-party apps or emulators that may be causing issues.

3. Disable add-ons and scripts: Temporarily disable any browser add-ons or scripts that might be interfering with your browsing experience.

Brave Browser and Ghostery Add-on

If you're currently using the Brave browser or have installed the Ghostery add-on, please note that these programs send extra traffic to GameFAQs servers for every page visited, potentially spying on your browsing habits. We strongly recommend stopping their use until this issue is resolved.

Opera Browser Issues

The latest version of Opera browser sends multiple invalid requests to GameFAQs servers for every page viewed. To avoid this issue, consider updating your browser or using an alternative search engine.

By following these guidelines and avoiding automated systems, you can enjoy a seamless trading experience on Diablo 2 Resurrected console platforms while contributing to the community's overall health and safety.
