    I've been banned this morning only after two days ABing, 2hours/day.

    I'm asking myself why did i get frozen that fast. I dont get it. Maybe someone here could help me see why?

    SETTINGS :

    ABing in shop #58 (stamps)
    Using Main shops AB + Igloo AB + Spin WoE every 2 hours + page spiderer

    EDIT : This was my main account and i lost everything i had...any shell of 4 months+ donation would be greatly appreciated... o_O

    It just happens sometimes...3-5 and 3-6 is pretty fast, but not absurdly so...

    20 items is a very high threshold though...it's pretty rarely over 20 items...

    I don't see anything particularly out of the ordinary.

    EDIT: You may have wanted to set a minimum buy time...what were your buy times like? If you had buy times consistently lower than 1.8 or 2 seconds, then that was proabbly why you got iced.

    Ice Nine, she had the delay buy time by 3 seconds.

    Only thing I really see is the high refresh rate.. Nothing else seems really extraordinary to me either o_O

    also when you were abing 2hrs a day did you do it in like 15-45 minute chunks? tnt gets really suspicious when you sit there constantly for 2 hours refreshing even if you have pauses in. If you ab for like 15 minutes change your refresh times take a 10 minute break ab for 30 minutes on slightly slower refresh times and do things like that you're less likely to get frozen because it looks much more human...

    EDIT: milanos she had it set to 3 seconds but she didn't have it checked... so it wasn't delaying buy times...

    "Enable minimum buy time" was not checked...

    EDIT: ceneret, if you look at his screenshots, you will see that he has it set to pause for 5-30 min every 40-55 min

    Did you set the UserAgent setting to the same as your browser's useragent?

    http://www.whatismyuseragent.com

    Also did you use the firefox cookie import/export?

    No one knows exactly how autobuyers are detected, so the only way is to try and make it as realistic as possible. For instance if you don't use the cookie import/export feature, you have to keep relogging in and out of your account to switch between using the program and browsing neo normally. We don't know for sure, but neopets might look for this kind of activity to detect programs.

    Also guys, if i want to continue to AB but on an other account (if someone is kind enough to lend/give me one), should i use a proxy?

    EDIT#2:
    Is this correct?

    bail, it's your buy times...you want to enable a minimum buy time so that your buys are more like 2.000, not 0.6 -_-

    I am now pretty certain this is why you got iced.

    Buy time of 3-6 is WAY to fast.
    In the past, I was using 7-11 if less than 6 items and 9-13 if more and rarely missed a buy.
    Futhermore, pausing between 50-80 refresh seems high to me. I usually used 30-40.
    BTW, shop 58 is high freeze IMO.

    I used this settings for 4 months abing in 7-13-14 and never had any problem. They caught me when I transfered everything to my main :lol:

    I think you mean refresh rates, not buy times...

    but, were you ABing in 7, 13, and 14 all at the same time? (like the 3 shops for AU) or were those just the ones you liked.

    could someone send me their settings please?

    EDIT :
    With refresh rates of 3-6 seconds AND minimum buy times of 3 seconds, will it be good? And i will miss a lot of items, right? Wont a lot of persons be faster than me?

    Here:

    I refresh 2-5 secs and 3-6...X = 15 items

    Minimum buy times: 1.8 seconds
    After every 30 to 50 refreshes, pause for 20 to 40 seconds.
    After restock pause, 60 to 100 seconds
    Wait 2 seconds between shops. I never do multiple shops.
    Check enable time based process pausing
    After every 25 to 70 minutes, pause for 15 to 45 minutes.
    Igloo refresh: 3 to 7 seconds.
    Enabled Spiderer: 10 to 60 seconds

    Actually, 3-5 and 3-6 seconds is normal. That's how fast I refresh legit...

    3-6 refresh... dang... That's like autoice in my case !!!
    But I never really used the "pause before buy" function.

    Code (Text):
    1. If BuyTime < 500ms Then
    2.   Msgbox("FTW !!!!")
    3. End If

    You won't need a proxy unless you are IP banned. IP bans are usually for people that do a lot of cheating. So, no, you don't HAVE to use a proxy, but I do suggest you use one.

    Its typical for a proxy to get slow speeds. There are fast proxies out there but they're much hard to find and tend to die quickly.
