The Autobuyers Strike Back..

Wed Dec 29, 2004 5:34 pm

Has anyone else noticed that recently it seems that its much harder to get anything from any of the shops? Or is it just me?

The Bakery inparticular.

That's because there are so many more people online - no school.

Indeed. Vacation times are the worst times to even restock. Unless you have dsl like me and fast hands.

I've been restocking for like a week, after a long break from it, and I've not noticed any auto-buyers. With the exception of two possible shops that may have them. Space Weaponry and Haunted Weaponry. The neocola tokens sell way too fast out of Space Weaponry. So, it make me suspicious.

I've noticed the bakery is a little harder... But it most likely is just people out of school.

And this isn't directed at you Xalaxracer, but waaay too many people blame autobuyers when they can't get that UB or they only get 2 items per stock instead of 3. It's not ALWAYS autobuyers.

Then there is the matter of the still-massive inflation because of Taelia's avatar and thawing.

Hm..2 and 3 is not the case, I usually can get 3-4 good profits.

But now I am strugling to get one. -shakes head-

The 2-3 was just an example I've seen a lot on the neoboards. If something is sold on, I swear it MUST have been an autobuyer :roll:

I noticed I'm not getting as many items, but I usually don't restock at this time. Morning is the best.

I'm not saying when to restock. I just said that I get more things in the morning. Like 4am NST (7am my time). Then when everyone starts getting on, there's more competition.

The bakery is a popular place to restock as it is, I've been getting 1 or 2 each restock. I haven't seen any evidence of autobuyers there, although that's not to say they're not in other places...

Wed Dec 29, 2004 7:38 pm

I know that the place I got my ABers when I used to AB (For revenge on TNT for unfairly freezing me...) doesn't host Neopets cheats anymore because TNT got them with a lawsuit for something, and I just checked and that hasn't changed... I think TNT started cracking down A LOT on sites that had ABers and cheat programs and stuff... But an Aber is possible. But my money is on the fact that ever kid in the world is on winter break, at home, restocking.

Wed Dec 29, 2004 7:46 pm

Yep I agree with everyone its just because school is out everyone is trying to make np i know i havent had too many good restocks lately (hopefully i can start when the kids go back) because my fingers arent fast enough but i do have a little luck really late at night say 2am nst there arent too many people on there but i dont think they are autobuying :)
