    Hey so I sent a review score on an account on a SS so I knew I was going to be frozen, and I was frozen yesterday. But when I logged on an account that I did SS on, it said it was frozen for game cheating too o_O

    Oh my God, idiots....... they froze my too-obviously legit main as I said in another thread. Go to login and it says larger than life You Were Frozen for using an 'auto buyer'.

    So I write them and say basically "Hey, I know your website probably told you I was cheating because I did something that resembled an autobuyer's behavior but please take a real look at my account - any human eyes will see that I obviously was not autobuying."

    And I get an email today saying - We cannot return your account to you because you were cheating. Cheating can take any number of forms including... and they listed several things that were not autobuyers.

    Oh my friggin God. Why I bothered to write them back, I don't know but I did. This time I said "While it's very interesting and informative that one can be frozen for using any of a number of cheating programs, my login page clearly states that I was frozen for using an AutoBuyer, which I know you can see I did not. However, if you wish to take the discussion down the other road, I didn't use any other program either. Maybe, maybe when I was restocking at three shops simultaneously, I refreshed them too quickly and it sent up a flag but so what? If I was obviously at my computer and obviously manually refreshing then what difference does it make if I park it in one shop and refresh it every 2 seconds? I'd still have to make the purchase through the normal means like everyone else and I'd get restock banned after a certain amount of time whether I got anything or not, which levels out the playing field for everyone automatically, without you even having to lift a finger."

    I have a hunch that 99% of people who are frozen who really were ABing waste their own time and TNT's by writing and claiming innocence and that's not something that's going to work in my favor here, but if they just take two minutes and one serious look, there shouldn't be any doubt. :| :| :|

    Thanks.... the hysterical thing is that I've never ABed. Not on my main, not on my side accounts either. What cheating I've ever done on any account is so minimal that they couldn't detect it if they tried. I bought the Flare Score Sender, spending all my cash here, and ran it on two games once to find out it doesn't work. I bought the Igloo Autobuyer and never used it because after I bought it I read that you can't use a proxy with it. And I tried restocking with Adblock enabled a little, but not only do they have no way of detecting that but it never paid off for me anyway.

    They're morons, plain and simple. The only way as a legit or semi-legit restocker to stand a chance in hell of getting anything would be to restock in just a few shops with very frequent refreshes, but they take that as a sign of autobuying and freeze your ass without even looking into it.

    This being true..


    I think what would have happened is; as you clicked the neomail hyperlink the mod clicked the freeze hyperlink for a previous offence.

    Not even the tnt is so silly to freeze somone for reading there mail.

    The fact that you were opening your mail is just coincidental to the freeze.

    Yeah if someone ever actually legit got my password without using a cger or something of the likes, I would just hand my account to them and start over. I also change my password weekly and have a different pin so they would have to be very lucky.

    Ah.... I just tried restocking for a bit on a side and I tell ya, having my account frozen took all the wind out of my sails. I was sitting here thinking "Yeah, wonderful. Here I am losing sleep for what?" Sit here for long hours knowing from experience there's only a very slim chance of getting anything good and if I do I'll probably be a target for banning as a reward for my efforts? Hell, I had a horrible restocking record on my last account and they froze that one - imagine if I got good at it... :nope:

    TNT creates cheaters.

    Seems like most high rarity items are tracked and accounts are iced pretty quickly. Feh
