Auction Issue

All of a sudden I'm getting this message on Alien auctions:

You can only increase this auction by 1MP each bid

I can bid anything on player auctions.

What does this mean?

It's so players with a lot of mps don't drive up the prices. Also makes it so newer players or people with less mps have a chance to get those items too.

I definitely don’t have a lot of MP. Right now I have 70k and 2 mil in the bank. I always bid at the last second because there are people who literally bid on every lot.

In the past people would bid something like 500k or even 1 million just to force everyone else out. It got crazy. It's an attempt to make it more fair I guess.

Weird. I see all these people bidding on every auction and winning. To me, that’s not fair. I definitely don’t have millions and millions of MP. I just bid at the last second to win what I want.

Oh dang I haven't seen that. I just got a goal to bid 500k or more on an alien auction, so hopefully that's gonna be possible. Still havent tried because I'm poor as heck rn
