    If i switch accounts to AB (i.e. AB on acct 1 for 3 hrs then AB on acct 2 for the next 3 hours) does it increase my chances of getting iced, as if i was just ABing for 6 hours on acct 1?

    the accounts have no interaction or transfers between each other

    Are they on the same IP? If so I think it is more riskier to AB on two accounts. But I also would never AB for 6 hours on one account. That's a lot.

    yeah, they're on the same IP. but how are they traced back to one user? same IP doesn't necessarily mean the same person

    Sometimes, all TNT does is assume. If they do decide to look into they can see what you are doing anyways. But if not, they are not going to ever think "Oh there must be more than one person in this home" as opposed to "Yup. This person is using more than one account."

    I think 1 account for 6 hours is less risky then 2 accounts 3 hours each. Your risking getting iced for abing both ways, but option 2 is also risking getting iced for multiing. Its a lot easier to detect somone who does that too.

    I agree that 6 hours is a long time for straight-ABing, but remember that a HUGE factor is the shop that you AB in. I've ABed in plushie for plushie on night at 3-5 refresh rate and never got frozen. Then I AB'ed in Magic on a diff IP/Account and got iced in 20 minutes

    Yeah way more riskier due to the fact they might just think your using multi accounts

    Yea. I only AB on one account, and then I house pets/ send money over to a side.
    It seems to work a whole lot better than Abing on a side and sending the profited money over. But whatevs.
    My advice though, is no matter what, dont AB six hours in a row with no breaks. My rule of thumb is when I go to use the washroom/eat/other humanly functions, I pause the AB'er. Cause then it makes it look less robotic.

    I am quite unfamaliar to MS autobuying,
    but recently i have used multi-accounts(says about 3)to SW autobuying altogether,
    which means at the same ip, at the same time,
    & still haven't got caught once.

    Chances are TNT don't pay this much of attention on SW autobuyer?

    Good to know. What other shops are red zones to AB in? Is it just that and Defense Magic and Battle Magic I assume? Since those are the big profit shops?
