    So mostly all my buys are 3.2-3.3
    That's bad right?
    Anyone know why it's like that?

    Like I said here: post311032.html#p311032

    Under 'Autobuyer: Other', uncheck the box for download image BEFORE buy. Speeds it up by 0.3+ according to expon

    Out of My mind Back in 5
    If you'd like a comparison the gm script im running goes from 7seconds :lol: to 1.5 seconds which is actually fantastic cause it seems like a real person I guess. I have New Zealand internet though so my lag is pretty understandable. When I igloo AB though 0.6 or so is the buy time and that is often too slow :p , whats the freeze rate like on the 2 second buys?

    Keeping above 2sec buys is generally safe.

    enabled minimum buy time at 3 seconds...
    it's normal you have 3.2 buy time ;)
    change it to 2 or lower.

    I'd say 1.5-1.8 is the lowest you should go, but yeah...you also might wanna use advanced refreshing just to be a little safer :D

    Anything 2.0+ is fine...I don't get iced for anything higher 2.0

    Yeah, 2.0+ still allows you to get a LOT of the items. Sometimes, all of them :p

    It's probably because you aren't being careful enough with your normal/Igloo ABer.

    Well, I don't...my buy times are consistently at 2.0+.

    I only got iced once because I cleared the Stamps (all the profitable ones)...well, I change IPs and stuff
    Idk, it just works out for me well :p -- Spiderer, dailies, yeah, that stuff makes it look legit.

    Probably off-topic. But what exactly does the Spiderer do? I've been trying to scrounge for guides but haven't had any luck. :maha:
