So I just joined and came in with the thought of purchasing the 5$ a month sub. Is it worth it? The Autobuyer without sub is a bit slow and doesnt get much. What are your guys thoughts on it?

    Abrosia is not fully functional without Advanced (or above) membership. Adding more functionality will allow you to customise your experience, and improve it - at least as far as your own competence allows.

    That said, Member-level Abrosia is perfectly servicable. It certainly isn't "a bit slow", at least with regards to safety. I mean, how would it look if the basic package defaulted to unsafe settings and got every new user frozen within hours? A little silly.

    Okay ^^. In your opinion is it worth the 5 dollars a month? Yeah I would definetly prefer safe over speed. Again I am literally brand new to this so i dont really know how member works and subscription works differently. :p .

    You are currently a Member (snicker). Paying for your subscription will make you an Advanced Member, and gaining any non-paid rank on the site will earn you the same benefits as the subscription.

    As to its worth, that's entirely down to you. $5 to me is worth a different amount than it is to you.

    Ohh. Well advanced member lol. Is it more risky focusing on one shop (If I get advanced member?). And yes I am currently in highschool with a job so money is not that strict luckily

    There are a number of guides on how to minimise risk and maximise profit, and how to balance the two. You can find them using the site search.

    Hey @Eilann!

    Scot's Addendum to Autobuying is actually a really good resource for new ABers.
    Be sure to take a peak :)

    It's definitely worth it but be careful as it's really easy to get frozen for AB'ing

    If you're sensible and stay out of the high risk shops, the $5 membership is worth it.

    Not worth $5, but is worth the amount of np equivilent to that. You can easily get the amount needed in a couple weeks with advanced.

     

    A couple weeks, more like a few days :p.. if you play your cards right and want to learn, that is.

    Surely $5 and the NP equivalent of $5 are worth the same value? :p
