Disabling javascript/adblocking shitty items is illegal but what are the odds of you getting caught?
What's the freeze rate for greasemonkey autobuyers? (Or is there a lot of variation based on which you're using)?

    I'd say pretty low. if adblocking is illegal more than half the players are cheating because blocking actual advertisement allows faster loading :p
    (I know thats not what they mean but come on)

    Also, It depends on your settings like always, but whats wrong with abrosia?

    greasemonkey loads the page before the next step, as far as I know abrosia acts as on a code level, so as soon as it receives the page code it buys the items, making it one hell of a lot quicker.

    Ohh I see. Good thing I use abrosia then! :D
    The only negative of auto buyers is that sometimes it buys hard to sell items D:

    I'm going to say that the freeze rates will be relatively constant based on your buy times. If you buy something in 2 seconds with Abrosia, buy something in 2 seconds with a GM script, and buy something in 2 seconds manually (with images filtered), I would say that you have a similar freeze rate.

    It mostly depends on the buy times, though if whatever AB you are using (can be a GMAB) has a really old OCR then neo will probably catch on quickly.

    Then sell the item for cheaper, as if you are complaining about what it gets you.

    I think it's just GM autobuyers are limited. They can only go as fast your internet connection and has to load the ads, etc. So it's probably better for newbies of AB'ers.

    Attic with items you don't want blocked is even better for newbies :p

    Havent tried that, its because the adblocker i have is a greasemonkey add-on so technically it's not an adblocker but it gives the same effect.
