    I can't seem to find a proxy that TNT hasn't blocked. Or at least one that is free. It seems as though they found a new way to kill every possible living proxy lol. What do you guys have/think about this?

    Also, I would appreciate any person that could find one non-IP banned and working. That would be nice :p .

    TNT ban like 500 proxies a day because heaps of cheaters use them :/

    Just keep sifting through sites like http://www.hidemyass.com, etc to find one that works and isn't banned, because new ones are added every minute pretty much :$

    Umm, when TnT bans a proxy, does that mean they Ice whoever was using it? :C

    A friend of mine uses various proxies from http://proxy.org/ with varying success. There's quite a huge list of them there, including lists by IP, so you can make a note of ones that do/don't work.

    I don't think so.

    I think they just prevent you logging in with it.

    Well, often when they ban a proxy, it is during a chain-ice so…USUALLLY, people that use that proxy are iced.

    There are some exceptions where proxies are linked to each other, and they ban all the proxies they can find :p . Tedious, stupid work :(

    I did not know this.


    But when you think about it, that is the most logical outcome.

    Really? I tried a lot of proxies there, but they were all :X:

    Has your friend used them for Neopets, and recently? I'm asking because TNT has become randomly careful and better with proxies. Thanks though, I'll try again.

    I use them myself sometimes. While I don't use programs I do have a lot more accounts than I ought to, and proxies from that site have served me quite well on the few occassions I've used them. If they don't work, I suggest downloading Tor.

    the country the proxy is located in doesn't matter.... it just means that if you go to any ip identification sites, they will think your in whatever country the proxy has listed.
    i find that most proxies in the US don't work for me, i usually end up using ones from china, random european countries, and sometimes south american countries.

    So that means that using a proxy is actually some pretty dangerous bussiness? (Since the title of this thread is "No More Proxies", you're saying it could also mean "No More Accounts" :p).

    Well, no more proxies for me then!

    Using a proxy that is further away will slow down your browsing, mind you.
    Again, I strongly reccomend downloading Tor. It's free, simple to use, and does its job amazingly well.

    Yes, but Tor does not work for programs now does it? I can always access Neopets through web proxies, but I'm talking about proxies for the programs.

    Speaking of proxies, umm, like...I know that the Igloo Autobuyer doesn't have Proxy Support, that means that even if I open my account on a proxy, and use the Autobuyer...The ABer will be registered on MY IP, making it too easy for TnT to chain ice me if they want to.

    My question, is if there is any way I can somehow use an Igloo Autobuyer, and still be using a Proxy, or any other form of IP masking?

    I just can't find -any- good proxies for Australia to use for programs. Either blocked or painfully slow..
