Making trades in Hardcore is very difficult

It seems like 99% of all trades are on Softcore.

Problem statement:

I'm a HC player and it seems very difficult to search for trades: I've filtered 7 pages and only saw 1 item on Hardcore.

Filtering page-by-page for Hardcore is very tedious because of long loading times, and searching for an item in the last 24 hours means you cannot filter by Hardcore and have to manually check row-by-row if it has the hardcore tag.

All this means HC players are making tons of DB queries that lead to no trades, see that HC trade is dead on the site and leave.

Suggestion:

Please add a separate Hardcore trading section.

Or perhaps even a rate-limited API for advanced users.

Fixing the filter would help and seems like the quickest fix.

Would be nice if the 24h search had a SC/HC filter as well.

But agree it is tough as a HC trader right now. So far only SC players have seen and responded to my trades and I have to turn them down as they did not see the HC

Skull.

The trade filter used to filter out the entire trade database. This worked until the trade database started to grow exponentially, which was about to make the server catch on fire. So as an emergency workaround to keep the site up, the filters currently only filter out from the ~100 items currently on the page.

There is a website patch coming soon which will should fix this. The patch will make the filters draw from the entire database rather than the 100 items currently on screen.

Stay tuned guys, it's coming soon.
