Well, since he only have 100 posts, and most of the other people continuously posting here have less, they won't even get the good shops to not get profit from, so he really doesn't benefit from it until he posts moar.



Oh man, I'm looking forward to that!

i hate you

Do you know if those numbers are final? Like under 100 posts = top 5 shops restricted? Or is there still debate about that

[yanks]

There is still a debate but that idea sure is picking up a lot of steam around here..

From what i remember quite a few of the under 500 post members supported the idea. It'll definitely clear things up though, with popular shops getting clogged up with autobuyers

Well, because of the periodic unlocking of shops with higher post counts, the newer members don't have as much to complain about, since they'll have a couple shops as they posts more. Though, think of how the new people would feel if SL just kept them in the dark, the Advanced+ getting all the good shops and the newbies getting the less popular shops, I'd put my money down on a few complaining about it, only because they can't benefit as much from the already OP program they get for free.

Then again, they could continuously be agreeing with any change that negatively affects them all because they want to suck up to ShadowLink or something, though I don't see how that will benefit them in any way.

Another question that arises is "will it be accessible through manual lists." I know that some users couldn't care one way or the other because their manual lists are unaffected

I'm sorry if I seem like a lurker...or a nub...

I just never have time to post on forums

So anyway...yeah...I'm having a problem. I used this program earlier today...and everything went fine! Now it keeps on giving me errors when it tries to log in.

Run the program first...it checks for cookies...then it freezes. So I run it again...gets through that...but it keeps giving errors when I log in.

The account isn't frozen...in fact I'm playing on it right now! Help?

Well, I'm sure SL will change that so people who are restricted can't use manual lists on the shops either, because that will make the restriction entirely useless.

Yet you managed to post asking for help?

Are you using Vista?

About restrictions: Personally I think only removing the top 5 shops initially is still generous.

[ShinaDutchAD]

Oh hush up you!

*fish slap*

And yes, I managed to post here. Again...sorry if I seem like I'm just a program leach.

And yes..I'm using Vista Home Premium

queeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeer. anyways theres only so much i can post each day without spamming. im not gona dig up old topics and start posting shit in em.

[yanks]

Is something already in place, though? I haven't been at any of the "top" shops in however many days I've been using the AB, but the biggest shop I've been to may have been Plushie, which is good in it's own right, but certainly no BM, DM, magic, stamp, etc.

No one said reaching 500 posts would take a week, reaching that number takes some time, so be patient.

@KRGirl, try restarting your computer, that might help, or run as Admin. It also could be an Anti-Virus blocking it.

ShadowLink would of announced that the change was implemented, you're probably just having some bad luck I guess.

Luls thanks

I really appreciate it. I'll try that later. Tried running it as an admin already. Will try restarting later.

Did run great for me when it was running the first time though X3

[yanks]

Are you sure there isn't something place? I keep getting the same cycle of shops (plushies, choco, bakery, furn, toy, uni) for the most part.

That's because SL put in some sort of probability thing that That has a greater chance of selecting shops with higher profit

There isn't anything implemented that I know about, so unless Shadow attacked the database without notice, Abrosia is just having fun going to those shops.

If you REALLY want to go to a different shop, then use a manual list instead of just running it.

It's up and running again. Thanks for the suggestions :3

Silly computer likes eating files and making me reset

yeah that would be stupid IMO as the whole reason to restrict is to restrict the randomized shop access. Thats what makes this autobuyer so awesome in my eyes besides the fact that it has a pretty look and it'll jump to igloo when ever you are RS banned

a question. Does it keep running etc whenever it gets logged out or can't load the shop page? Because it acts like its still visiting the shop but when i close it and open it again and attempt to login it says login failed if i've been logged out.

It will continue to run as if it is still logged into your account, but will generate errors when trying to do the hourly tasks like pricing items and withdrawing cash from your till, dunno about login failed business, if I see that the program was logged out, I just stop it, log out with the program (Even though it already is ) and re-login and start it up again, and it works fine afterwards.

[MasterJunpei]

this would be why it needs a window that displays current shop contents.

[Eliam]

I need some help! I've been using Abrosia for about a month now, with great results.
Anyway, now when I start it up, it gets stuck in the status bar, saying "STATUS: Visiting (shop here)" and doesn't refresh or anything.
What's more, when I click the stop button, it greys out and nothing happens, so I eventually have to just X out, and I get an error box that says "See the logfile C:/Programs/Neocodex/PythonApp/Abrosia.exe.log for details."

I made sure I had the mot up to date versions of Abrosia and the required files, and then tried downloading them both again anyway. I tried running Abrosia with lists and without, with profit margin of 5000 and with profit margin of 1.

Anyone know what's going on?


EDIT: Here's my two cents on the whole restricting for lesser pot members. I don't personally have a lot of posts. I post maybe once or twice a day, so it'd take me a long time to get to 500 posts. However, I have +reputation, I am one of the top pricers for the items database (go Neon!), and I wrote a guide for the forum that I thought would be helpful, with more to follow when I think of topics. Shouldn't we maybe find a way to rank users aside from post count, or at least in conjunction with it?

Running as Admin was what I was going to suggest so not sure after that. I think jcrboy had a similar error and founf that restarting the computer was useful....as well as just restarting the program. I guess you could try reinstalling it as well.

Well, +rep really isn't that great, as anyone can rep you for almost anything, as long as they don't abuse it, so you'd have to acquire a good amount of rep to get anywhere with it. Besides, you only have 3 rep, that's not a whole lot.

Pricing? Never going to happen, all you have to do is run the program a lot to price items, and since so many people run the program already, there would be little difference in change with prices regardless of how many you priced.

The guide? I dunno about that one, it would be pretty obsolete for those who want to use it to get into the good shops with manual lists, since they'll be restricted from them, so a smaller amount of people will have use for it.

[MasterJunpei]

hmm, if it hasn't been suggested yet, perhaps we could add in a check to actually make sure you are logged in >.>
