    Well.. When u think about it...TNT, wen they actually do catch ABers.. theyre usually hinted by a buy that seems too quick to be done by a human. So i propose some sorta ABer... similar to the ones out now in many ways, except it makes buys at totally human speeds, rather than .5 seconds. Using this ABer would obviously MASSIVELY decrease the amt of items bought, but it will also MASSIVELY reduce the freeze rate. I suggest setting it to take 2 seconds to type the price and 2 seconds to click the picture, or something... i dunno how fast a human can restock. Make it faster than the average good restocker so it beats the humans, but fast enuf for some exceptional humans to beat. This program could be run in Magic and Battle Magic, and although it would get MUCCCHhh less, I think its totally worth it.

    This might help, but honestly I think TNT looks for how long you've been refreshing more than whether or not you're fast. Of course if you're inhumanly fast they'll catch you either way.

    I think this is a good idea- let's see, legit rsing would probably take a user around 2-3 seconds, is that right?

    They look at WHEN the page refreshes and WHEN the items bought.

    The programs, from my understanding, work based on your computers clock and work EXACTLY on the second.

    So regardless of how fast (or slow in this case) it is, if they see you buy several item exactly on the second every time, then you're still bound to get frozen.

    I think that they freeze with the amount of refreshes.

    I bought 3 seconds after the restock the whole time, still frozen.

    mmm, amount? I refresh as soon as it finishes loading (legitly) and I've never been iced. It's be a good experiment to see what kinda criteria gets iced for, (I personally reckon its the uniformity of the refreshes like someone said before cause it seems logical) If someone was willing to sacrifice a few accounts and had some proxy knowledge, would make for better future AB designs. I suppose its not easy to make an AB that refreshes any time between X and Y seconds? (in terms of completely random fractional seconds too).

    okay i say make the aber a little slower and its up to the person how fast to refresh

    the 2 reasons i think they freeze is how much refresh and fast you buy

    true and BTW i have clocked some of my buys i have got my best buy (a morphing potion) to 3.465 seconds so the 0.5 sec thingy is way to fast and for the other why this should be done is that when the neopets 2.0 came the shops were also improved and now they make lagg if you are too fast so when i have change to buy something i rather make it now by hand untill i get the 500 forum cash costing AB with many features

    Another way to make an Aber look more legit is to load each image in the page, to make the server think we're using a browser. And I agree, a slow buy time would massively reduce the freeze rate. Good Idea, maybe I'll program a simple ABer like this without any special feature...

    Almost every ABer here has that.

    If its on human speed then what will actually be the point of the ab? Ab is meant for you to get the items faster than legit restock-ers.

    Because proxies are kinda hard to get ?

    And blitzkoon, I think some people don't use ABer because they're faster, but because they're just to lazy to restock. Like me.

    I never thought about it like that, I always figured most people used one hoping to get the most expensive item from a shop before anyone else since it naturally would get them the most amount of money.

    I guess a PRO of having something like this would be being able to leave it on for longer periods of time while at work or school, because when Im away I don't really mind coming back to any items, great profit or not - but if I'm around the computer I don't like it. =P

    hmm, very nice idea. If it takes an aber like 2-3 seconds to get the item, you'll miss some items, but it'll be very hard for tnt to detect if you use it right.

    use the human speed ABer for long periods and the faster ones for short periods when u are actually at the computer.

    If you are a smart AB'er, you would restock in like magic and stamps where the profit is high as stuff, go to like plushie, books, coins, petpets etc. Where the profit isnt as much as the others but items stills sell UB
