I was just wondering if you or the shop owner that you are buying with frequently would get iced if you only buy in their shop?

 

Im asking because a few hours ago as I was scouting for some codestones needed to pay for training I spotted a cheap priced codestone through the shop wizard, somewhere around below a few hundred bucks than the current market price range...

 

I thought it was a steal so I bought it in a snap.

 

Then checked if that user also has some other codestones (regular) that are under the market srp. And it did.

 

A few hundred bucks below wouldn't hurt it, albeit its much better since you are getting it cheaper than other user shops.

 

And So I hoarded knowing that those cheap priced codestones would be gone in a snap. I got a couple maybe around 20 ~ 30 different (regular) codestones in that shop alone. Could have been more if that shop has not got any other users buying there.

 

after that. I trained my pet...

 

after the training was finished I checked out that shop because it might just have new stocks of codestones that I can possibly hoard.. Only to find out that the account was disabled...

 

So the question is... Did he got iced because of the low priced codestones or is it purely coincidental?

That was just coincidental and should have virtually no impact on you whatsoever besides the fact that you no longer have the shop on your personal codestone snipe list.

I have a few people like that and they do get iced from time to time. Just gotta go find new ones.

I dare say although the low priced codestones might be related to why he got iced (maybe a snipe program or whatever) it won't have any impact on you whatsoever. If TNT iced everyone who shopped at shonky account shops, there'd be maybe a handful of people left to play.
