This program is seriously awesome! Major props to you guys.

I guess we'll find out in a few days how human-like it appears lol.

Heh, I woke up to see I got RS banned just prior to coming out of my room, but the igloo isn't too bad either, I've already bought 3 items from it worth over 10k and have spent no more then 1k on them.

Though, the RS ban has been going for almost 2 hours no, yikes it's long.

Wait a second.... It made me purchase a neotrak for 130,000 something. Its not listed on the restock list. Database entry for it is correct, so that was pretty random.

Seems to not be working properly for me. Been running it for an hour or so now and hasn't even attempted a purchase.

What shop are you in? Also, right now it always takes from till when it is doing item management, but I will add an option to bank profits past a certain quantity so it only keeps x NP on hand.

And it bought the neotrak because you have 'Buy all
unbuyables' on. Our database does not work well for unbuyables, so those should be bought at your own risk.

I realize now that many ubs are bought at a loss, so maybe I will make it watch profit margin. I only had profit margin enabled for buyables.

I have all the settings for the main shop set as default, including buy all unbuyable items. Default settings doesn't it have in any specific shop. Would it be better for me to pick two or three?

Almost two hours with zero purchases. I think I've ran it for four hours tonight and I've gotten two items. One was about a 50k profit and I haven't checked the other. So it may still be a nice turn around in the end but looks like it's not even seeing the restocks.

Wow, I thought it said I got a neotrak but now I can't find it. i think it was stolen. >:{

[ShadowLink64]

It's definitely seeing the restocks. If it wasn't seeing the restocks, it would determine that you are RS banned.


It's probably that some shops are terrible for items that make a profit. Random mode is not the greatest mode to run this program in. That is why I made it a restriction for people below 500 posts.

Oh man can it be bad I just stick to the igloo, although the items aren't very popular, you still can grab expensive-ish items for like 1,000 neopoints. (That, and the fact I'm still RS banned and don't really have a choice xD)

oh shoot it happened to you too? why is it buying it even though theres no profit. I think its a 30k net loss.

[Cory]

How is it a loss?

[Beeboobop]

Oh, the neotrak is bought in the store for roughly 133k, but if you look on the trading posts, offers are 105k = auto.

[ShadowLink64]

Ok, we're going to have some downtime. We really screwed up as far as setting images as the unique identifier.

I've remotely disabled people's copies, so it's not going to be ABing anything once it receives the signal from the server. Just shut down your copies please.

Unfortunately it will take a couple hours.

[Cory]

Cam, can you look up people's individual purchases? Like how much I paid for the Neotrak? I'm almost positive I paid less then 20k for mine but obviously the database says other wise.

Nah we only store information on the actual items, nothing really about users other than their pricing amount and last item priced.

[ShadowLink64]

Any data from the last two days is lost because of our genius idea of using image URLs, lol. We had to revert to backups.

It should be up soon guys. By the way, I'm going to make the unbuyable option mindful of the profit margin. Buying every UB that appears is the stupidest idea ever since many present a loss to the user.

Well you can just set it to buy every UB that is < 99,999 in shop. At least that'll return a profit.

What if the UB doesn't have a price?

[ShadowLink64]

Then too bad. Most of our UBs have prices in our DB though so it should be fine. And for the unpriced ones, we can give them prices.

-------------

Abrosia MSAB 0.9.5 is up. The buyables option will now only buy profitable UBs, and we fixed the items database yet again.

[jcrdude]

Whoo! Already repricing!

Thank you for your hard work and dedication *big thumbs up*

[ShadowLink64]

Sorry about all this damn maintenance guys.

[Elindoril]

Sorry about all this damn maintenance guys.

Meh, I'm still RS banned, so it's not like I missed much lurking the Igloo.

Really, if it has to be fixed, then all means, do what you must to make it right.

[jcrdude]

With innovation comes mistakes inevitably. Through making mistakes, you will learn and improve and end up on top of the game. Way to go for being on the cutting edge!

[beach3boy]

Still RS banned...grr.

[Elindoril]

Still RS banned...grr.

Tell me about, RS banned for 15 hours so far.

[jcrdude]

I edited my settings and I've only been RS banned once.

My wait delay is set to 8-12 seconds.

I only got RS banned before I changed that setting.

Also, my proxies kick out randomly and need to be replaced... so I have unplanned pauses ><

I'm personally excited. The Toy Shop and Plushie Palace have gotten exceptionally profitable for a young account. Recently picked up a UB and a few high-priced buyables.
