    I've been autoing for exactly 3.5 hours a day for 2 months, and today was the first day i got restock banned.

    Why now? What happened? :|

    Personally i think you may refresh a little too quickly ?
    or restock at too many shops at the same time ?

    You just refreshed too much. Restock bans often vary. When I restock I usually get restock banned in as little as 10 minutes or after 2 hours.

    Maybe the shop feels like restock banning you for once, haha?

    Maybe you have set a time interval let's say 5-8 seconds and normally it would spread out nice and evenly, but today, it tender more to the 5 seconds than the 8, leading in a greater overall refresh rate, resulting in a RS ban?
