Let me start by sharing my experience: I’ve successfully autobought (ABed) items, but I’ve also faced failures, including getting frozen while restocking legitimately. It’s been a learning journey, but over the past several months, I’ve been able to pull in items consistently without getting frozen by using Acheteur Ultime on accounts I created myself. I focus on simply buying and selling items to build my neopoint stash, without resorting to transferring or self-icing. While I may eventually need to move items or neopoints between accounts, I’m taking my time. Here are the key strategies for ABing without risking a freeze, listed in order of importance.
#1 – Understand the Risks of Freezing
It’s essential to grasp why you want to avoid being frozen. Repeatedly losing your account due to bad choices can be frustrating. Your goal is to sustain your account and your success, which requires a thoughtful approach to restocking.
#2 – Adjust Your Refresh Rate
Take your current refresh rate and extend it by an additional 5 to 7 seconds. Set it so high that it feels unlikely you’ll snag anything at all. You might wonder why this works:
- Hitting Restocks: Surprisingly, a longer refresh rate can lead to consistent hits. I’ve found that I do better with a slower refresh than I did when manually restocking for hours.
- Avoiding Attention: This guide is about maintaining your account. Prioritize slow and steady gains over massive but suspicious profits. Rather than aiming for a huge payday of 30 million neopoints in a weekend, focus on achievable goals. Slow gains signal legitimacy, which is crucial to avoiding detection.
#3 – Mindset Matters
Your mindset is as vital as your autobuying settings. If you believe in your strategy, you’re less likely to make impulsive decisions that could jeopardize your account. For instance, earning 2 million neopoints a week may seem underwhelming, but very few legitimate players achieve that. With patience, your account can grow to over 100 million neopoints in a year. Embrace the steady accumulation of wealth rather than seeking quick riches.
#4 – Use Proxies
Learn about proxies and use them for your accounts. It’s against the rules to have multiple accounts on the same IP address, so each account should be on a separate proxy. This way, if something unexpected occurs, you risk losing only one account.
#5 – Avoid Item Transfers Between Accounts
When starting your accounts, focus on generating neopoints without transferring items. Play games, utilize Igloo buyers on weekends, or wait until your account is at least four months old before considering any transfers. The initial money-making opportunities should be sufficient to kickstart your ABing without needing to rely on transfers.
#6 – Skip the Cosmetic Enhancements
Don’t waste your time on avatars, decorating your pet page, or other tactics commonly believed to legitimize accounts. I’ve seen players frozen despite their efforts to appear legitimate. The method of ABing is what matters most; refreshing too quickly or accumulating too much too fast can lead to detection.
#7 – Stay Low-Profile on the NeoBoards
Avoid engaging in discussions on the NeoBoards. Many users there are either inexperienced or cheaters, and associating with them increases your risk. If no one knows your name, they can’t harm you. While selling items can theoretically draw attention, I’ve found it hasn’t affected me. In contrast, many players with impressive accounts have been frozen. Stay under the radar.
#8 – Minimize User Interactions
Avoid visiting other players’ profiles or shops to prevent cookie grabbing, which can expose your account. If you must visit another user’s page, log out, clear your cookies, and change your password immediately afterward. Some may call this paranoia, but I call it precaution.
To Summarize:
- Create accounts using separate proxies.
- Build up 100-200k neopoints through Igloo buying or games.
- Wait until your accounts are four months old.
- Use Acheteur Ultime (AU) with very slow settings and focus on high-priced items.
- Maintain a low profile on the website—avoid boards, pet pages, and user shops.
- Watch your neopoints accumulate!
For example, you might set your AU to refresh every 9 to 17 seconds, with a wait of 45 to 60 minutes every 60 to 75 minutes. I’ve even experimented with slower settings, and I consistently see success.
In the Igloo, fast refresh rates work well, but remember: only on weekends and only until you’ve secured 100-200k worth of items.
By following these strategies, you can enjoy the thrill of autobuying while minimizing your risk of getting frozen. Happy restocking!
