    Hard-to-sell unbuyables? I beg to differ. The main UBs that stock at Igloo are avatar pinatas (105k-125k, VERY easy to sell), Snorkle Snouts (around 275k now, I think, also extremely easy to sell), and Bag of Peanuts (around 320k now.)

    All of them are avatar items, so they sell amazingly quickly.

    Yeah, I made steady high profit off of igloo, but I think I'm going to stop for awhile. As for reading before posting, sometimes I just don't have the time. I can't really hate on them for posting without reading because I do the same thing some times.

    Yup, thought TNT strengthened their security alot. Wasn't sure if it was due to me buying some r99 off the main shops previously but had been restocking for like 2-3 months without any problem until a few weeks ago. Trying out a new method now to prevent detection, hopefully it'd work. :(

    I would guess 2-3 hours would be fine, as long as your refresh rate isn't something crazy like every .2 seconds. Oh, and be sure to wait a bit before signing on to neopets in your browser if you're using a program (with the exception of heya's gm script)

    I think the main thing is that you shouldn't abuse it... Did anyone else get frozen btw? Maybe it was more of a random hit.

    I dunno about that, but when I was frozen, I told to story to someone else, and they had been frozen the same night.

    Anyone else been frozen lately?

    Hmm. Maybe it was an isolated incident?

    Well... I think it is somewhat necessary to overthink the way people earn their nps in this forum a bit... I think the mass inflation for instance is a good way to do this like that we wouldn't need autobuyers as much... There are just still some problems with inflating that we'd have to eleminate.

    Nah, we all (or, at least I do, I can't speak for the group) appreciate you telling us about this. What each of us does with this information is a personal decision, but it's important to have the knowledge of what has gone on.

    ummm just to point something out iglooing is still cheating, it's not a perfect get out of jail free card... while the freeze risk isn't as high as other programs it still does have a freeze rate and TNT will freeze you if they happen to be monitoring the igloo when you're iabing, they didn't increase the security you just got unlucky... just don't abuse the iab and be smart about how you're cheating...
