Not positive, but if you're advanced and make your own lists I think you need to do profit: decending or else it'll buy the low profit items first.

That's true because Abrosia will go after the items at the top of your list(s) before the others, but most Advanced members don't really use lists cx ~

Okay i admit I am a noob, but I've used the Ambrosia autobuyer before. However yesterday when I wanted to use it again after quite some time I kept getting 'Login error' when i'm supposed to log in on neopets.
Anyone an idea of what I did wrong?

I have no problems logging in to neopets. Try re-installing program manager?

See if you can log in to other accounts to make sure it's not your account problem (e.g. wrong birthday).

If it still fails, you would probably have to report it at the Bug Tracker. http://www.neocodex.us/forum/tracker/

I figured out what went wrong. I can't log in on petpages.neopets with Abrosia and my computer blocked the regular neopets.com Damn

I recently bought 3 months advanced membership. Call me stupid but last time I had advanced I set everything at around 0.1 to try and get high profit items. I had no knowledge about ABing.

I just want to know what is over doing it. Yesterday I bought 30-40 items.

Would the amount of items I bought be considered suspicious to the neopets team? If no, how much is over doing it?

Also, buy time is like 1.4 - 1.8 seconds. Is that okay?

It'd depend on how long you're ABing for and what your profit margin is
If your profit margin is low-ish then it's okay if you buy a lot of items, but if you're profit margin is set to like, 100k (hypothetically), then it'd be suspicious if you bought like 30-40 100k+ items in a day cx

...work your buy times to be between 1500 and 1800ms, which is usually close to how fast humans can buy.

So your settings seem safe/fine-ish to me (and according to the FAQ)

Thanks

My profit margin is like 3000. I AB for about 3-5 hours maybe not quite sure but take long breaks. So I'd AB for 2 hours take a break for a couple of hours and carry on. That sort of thing.

That seems fine and perfectly reasonable/human-like, I wouldn't worry about it if I were you ^__^

Awesome Rainie. Thanks a bunch!

I'm totally new to Abrosia (I used it for the first time today, and got RS banned within about half an hour ) However, I also noticed that even after I shut the AB down, I kept getting logged out of Neopets site (on every third click). Is that normal? I had to uninstall the programme to start using Neopets properly again.

Did you shut down the whole program manager, or just Abrosia? You have to close the manager itself in order to not have log-out issues.

That must have been what I was doing wrong; thank you for your help.

Noob question:

Can i use ambrosia (or anything else in program manager) and have neopets open in browser at the same time???

[legendaryhi5]

No.
As far as I know, Ambrosia is like another browser, and you can't log on to two browsers at the same time.

[Sweeney]

There is no "m" in Abrosia

[Unseelie]

I'm afraid of changing the wrong setting and getting frozen—is OCR Page Delay what people mean when they mention "Buy Times"? I think I really need to adjust my buy times, because I did a Speed Test, and uh...



Yeah.

Yeah.

There's no point testing your ping time against London. Neopets servers are not located in London.
OCR Page Delay is a part of your buy time.

Buy time = Pre-haggle + OCR Delay + general connection and page load time.
