I let it run between 2-6 hours a day; usually around the same time every day.

General wait: 3 - 10 seconds
Pre-Hanngle: 0.8 - 1.0 seconds
OCR: 1.0 - 1.4

I usually stop it once RS banned rather than igloo.

I'm using the Fingering haggle algorithm.

I buy from Stamps and Coin, mostly. I've bought one item from Defense Magic, wasn't a big deal.


Any ideas why I keep getting frozen? The program is set between 1800 and 2400 ms buy times, which I would think is safe. I often miss big items (1mil+ profit) because of the slow times, but I figured it would be better to be patient. Hmm

Maybe your IP is flagged?

Fair enough. Proxy time, I guess. >.<

You could try a VPS, Amazon offers a free tier for a year which I think a few people have used:

Stamp is high risk if you buy in high volume.

[Chappy]

Perhaps you should "lie low" for a while to see if TNT really has you marked. Just for a week or 2 buy from other shops that isn't as risky.

I stay far away from stamps, magic shop and royal potion because I am sure those are the shops tnt watches the most. I could be wrong but I have done well just sticking around low profit shops. I stay around 2-3k profit but always land a new item that way. GL

Stamps is a big no-no. If you must, only AB there for about 20 minutes a day. It's worked for me so far and I've gotten a few UBs. Magic is suicide.

Try legitly RSing and see if you still get frozen

[satomi]

Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa? I've been AB-ing from Stamps for ages!! (Well I have it set to go to shops 1, 30, and 58) But it's been quite a long time and I haven't gotten frozen even when ABing 4-5 hours per day

[Sorner]

If I were able to change the wait times, I wouldn't go below 5.0 seconds.

change your ip address dude

I ab'd in stamps for like 2 days.... no ban.. yet.

[endoftheworld]

I've RS'd at Stamp for a very long time, no ban from autobuying.

 

People are too greedy with using Abrosia.  Just going for profit is bad.

Is autobuying this widely accepted? I personally hate it when someone outbids me with one of these.

You DO know you're on a cheating website? Of course it's going to be widely accepted here

[Habanero]

AB'd in stamps for months and never got frozen. Royal potions is what got me last time though.

[Lightsora65]

I think i will get frozen soon xD have been restocking at mp for 3 days now 4-5hours per day got like 10 of them but missed like 50

I AB in stamps pretty often and haven't had any problems.I get the odd UB but mostly buyable. Miss plenty, only have it going for shortish stints at a time, and not every day, or the same time each day. Works for me. I also got one extremely valuable stamp from there and didn't get me frozen. I won't say which stamp it was but it make me a fortune.

 

You just have to be sensible with your settings and how you approach things and you should be fine. If I was AB'ing in stamps (or any shop) for 6 solid hours without a break 7 days a week then I wouldn't be surprised to get frozen.

I mostly AB overnight from around 12 am - 6 am.... hahahaha. But I find that stamps are pretty HTS.

I dunno, I find they go fairly quickly compared to some items I get. The ultra rare one I had sold quick enough because there are very few of them about (and it was from an avvie set). Plus I tend not to be too fussy about prices on ones under 500k since I don't like having my inventory clogged up with tons of trades.

 

Good luck to ya, if I could be bothered to set up a proxy I'd AB for a lot longer on my shell, but I haven't set one up yet so I just AB casually on my main and try to keep it realistic.

 

I often wonder if TNT look at things like the time you restock compared to the country you play from. Might look more suspicious Ab'ing during night-time... Handily for me I'm British so quiet restocking times are the not-so-early mornings over here. To be fair though, when I was a student I'd often stay up past 6am playing video games...
