    How long should i wait for before ABing. I know that it is possible to AB with an account ~1 month old with good profits. I don't think i'm allowed to link to an external site, but there's such a thread on another forum, with the user making ~1m a day with a 1 month old account by ABing at not so popular shops.

    Since all my accounts were iced :)/), i've created a new account and was wondering if it's a good idea to AB?

    Well aren't you going to AB anyways? :p Not like you're planning on playing legitly, correct? 1 monthers can do decently in Pharmacy and other low-profit shops. But still, be careful with any ABing as it can lead to being frozen if you make one mistake. You can also make good money SSing -- that may be a bit less riskier. My advice would be to make your main and be legit with it. Use a proxy on a side to make money and slowly transfer it over. At least this way, if they freeze you for ABing or SSing, hopefully your main will be untouched.

    Might as well just start ABing. Just stay out of high-profile shops or shops with too many items that you can't see.

    Take a look at the Autobuying Shop Guide if you're not sure which shop to choose.

    You might also want to take a look at this: Smart Weekend ABing. Might be useful for avoiding future icings.

    Pharmacy is good for the newbies :)I saw you on the other forum lol, you could buy like a one month account for really cheap and start from there, just remember to proxy when you ab xD You can start abing anytime you like~

    Pretty much. And you can already see items of all rarities with a 3-month account.

    Of course it's okay, if you're fine with losing the account after some time.

    For a the Magic Shop though, there's minimal profit for any accounts < 3 months, just fyi...it would be wasting time to AB there.
    Because ya'll were talking about 1 month accounts :)

    Nope...if you just take a look at a profitable items list in the magic shop, 99% of the items there are 3 month+...

    Oh, I've been doing high risk activities all of last week and didn't notice that TNT is on another freezing spree (or maybe it's because their last one still hasn't stopped? ;)).

    Decided to just AB at a few smaller shops safely. When my account is older, i'll AB at higher risk shops. No magic though :p
