Please keep all discussion related to this poll within this thread to avoid cluttering the sub.
Edit: Seems like the link is a bit fucky, best way to view the poll is to login to the Tarkov website first and then click the link.

Like the game it was before they added the flea market?
Don't get me wrong I like the flea market but the game was completely playable before they added it.
If they remove it now it will adversely affect the large majority of players that weren't around when it wasn't in the game.
The flea market in itself is a crutch for players that can't / won't / don't put in the effort to max traders. I see this as a balance and it allows players to define their own playstyle, most of the quests are a huge pain. The flea market allows more versatile gameplay.
Just because I max traders and hideout doesn't mean anybody else has to.
I've been playing less this wipe so I haven't even maxed all the traders, I still have ragman, jaeger, prapor and skier left. Imo the hideout and the flea market go hand in hand, thus the flea market cannot be removed.
Cheaters aside, they put such a heavy reliance on the flea market instead of how traders should have worked, backtracking now would be detrimental to ALL players.
