Dab in a Lab

Bought some residential proxies the other day from them, and I haven't been able to get them working. I contacted their support, but still haven't heard anything. If anyone is using proxies from them, or has used proxies, can you answer a few questions for me? I noticed my SOCKS5 proxy worked when I added my IP to the IP list on my ports page, but the point of a proxy is to not use your IP (?) Do I need to add IP addresses for it to work? Does it not automatically grab random IPs for me? How would I go about collecting IPs to add? Are they residential still?

I just bought some residential proxies from localproxies, but I get a SOCKS Proxy Configuration Error when I try to launch. Any idea why? And for people that have used local proxies, there is no username/pass right? I don't see one stated on my ports page.

Ahhh damn... Well if you're interested, I got a fat playlist you'd probably find some songs off of. Just based off that youtube one you posted

@Rxd Hahaha saw the thread and that song popped into my head then saw your suggestion. This one is a must listen though. Fucking fire beat. Gonna be one hell of a album Edit: @Rxd Do you have a SoundCloud playlist I can scope? We got a similar taste in music

So if I bot 11.9 hours everyday, I'll never be banned? Sounds about right

You'd have to be VIP, but each client can have its own proxy. Just change the proxy info before launching each client

Just out of curiosity, have you written scripts outside of Runescape/games? I've been thinking of trying to use Java for an irl project to make some money.

How long did it take you to learn all this? Especially all the automation parts. I taught myself Java back in May and was making a few of my own scripts up until September and then took a break cause my computer was shitting out on me and the account locks were insane. Just got a new laptop so I'd like to get back into it again, but learning the more Java-y side of automated processes was a bit disheartening. Would you use .walkPath and make your own positions?

How does creating accounts with a proxy work? I have for example a https proxy 123.45.678.910:1111 in a text file called "proxy" It tells me its trying to create account with that proxy, but it fails every time. Do I need to include the login credentials too?

Have you tried doing tut island by hand or just buy tut accounts? I know accounts botting tut island are highly likely to get locked or banned.

How long did you have those proxies for? It took about 5 months and getting about 60-80 accounts banned a week for my home IP to get flagged.

Ya thats what had happened to me too. I let an account sit for 7 full days and still got instantly locked

I would usually just write them off and start up a new one, but 100% of the accounts get locked. Have you noticed how much wealth generally needs to be on it? I may have to look into it and do some testing.

That could maybe be it. My home IP was flagged 3 or 4 months ago. I've been using handmade tut accounts from my home IP then botted on a proxy for ~3 months and only had problems this past month though.

Did you test it with an account from accounts.rs only? The price per account is kinda absurd

A case of the level 3 fiend; waiting to steal two accounts at a time. But in all seriousness, my account holding all my money isn't being locked (or gp dissapearing) just the fresh tut accounts.

I took a break from writing my script and running a bot to focus on all the school work that had been given to me. I had started to get accounts locked mid/late September for being "stolen" but I was able to recover them by changing the password and continued botting. Now that I finished all the projects and papers, I have time to try tackle this lock problem and continue scripting. I was making two handmade tutorial accounts a day on my home IP and then had them bot on a proxy the next day. Previously I had no issues with locks using this method, but now I am. Last week I did tutorial island by hand on my home IP and this morning, started up the bot on my proxy (had rested a full 7 days thinking it would help) but after ~20min of botting, it got locked for being stolen again. I'm wondering if the two proxies I used during this time (early/mid September to now) were bad since they're cheap af, or if a lot of users are experiencing the same thing. I've considered upgrading to residential proxies, but don't want to drop the money on them in case its not a proxy issue. Right now unlocking two accounts every day or so isn't a big deal, but its still a pain in the ass. When I finish my script and start buying tut accounts in bulk, it won't be viable though. Does anyone have experience avoiding the locks they could hint to? Is anyone in the same boat still trying to deal with locks? I still need to try making the account on the proxy, do tutorial island by hand on it, and then bot, but when I buy tut accounts, they wouldn't be created using the same proxy anymore, so it would only be a temporary solution anyways. Edit: I read a few posts about account locks, but they don't seem to address the issue to well.

Are you using database proxies or residential ones, or a VPN? If you don't mind sharing My accounts are getting locked recently after ~30 min of being logged in. I've also been using a really cheap database proxy around the time the accounts have been getting locked, so I have a strong assumption thats the cause of it. Maybe Jagex just stepped up their game though since I've seen a fair amount of people complain about it now ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

After I was done running the debugger, it wouldn't rebuild my jar file and it lost the JDK for the module. Is there a proper way to stop the debugger? My classes all changed to this: https://gyazo.com/31f882c551a2235cf509a487c5d8924b I ended up making a new project and just copy and pasted the code into it. Couldn't figure out how to fix it otherwise

Ya, that’s exactly what I was doing. I was relying on my script to pick up on the new rock ID from the one instance. I’ve got everything working great now though with Chris’s help.

Thank you so much!

Just pmed account info

I finished figuring out how to determine which of the same kind of rocks my bot is mining (eg. determine which of the two iron rocks I'm currently mining) but I currently can't get the bot to detect if the rock has been mined or not. I'm using a check with the depleted rock ID, but its not picking up on it. I know its better to use color as a check for mining, but I'm wanting to use IDs for the meantime while I finish writing everything else and then deal with the color checks. Can I use IDs as a check? I've tried searching for source codes to see how other people have dealt with it, but couldn't find any.

I've been sitting on this project for a few weeks and decided I wasn't going to personally use it anymore. It is a pretty easy money maker to crash due to the low trade volume for rope. http://www.mediafire.com/file/25y3s8d22wgpn5b/Lab Certified_ Rope Buyer.jar I may add a fail safe for if the bot dies from a Dark Wizard. No promises though. Any constructive criticism or advice for my code would be appreciated. Source Code
