Hey guys. I've been doing some proxy research now that I got a ban on my home ip but I've gotten some mixed info.

So cheap proxies all seem to be datacenter proxies. How bad are these? I've heard that your acc usually gets locked. I'm going to try and slower long term make an acc, so lowest ban rate is my goal. For this would no proxy be better than the cheap ones?

I'm more doing this as a hobby project so I'd rather not pay a good sum a month for a residential proxy, any cheap alternatives?

 

How are the stupid vpn's like nord vpn. Tons of rs youtubers are sponsored by them, so you would think that theres a lot of players playing legit on them. Making it hard to tell whos a bot and whos not. Anyone tried these?

the reason why cheap proxies are usually unsafe is because once 1 user is done with it, they resell the same ip to the next customer, but there are proxy providers that sell fresh proxies which is what you need to look for, I could refer you to some but i'm not sure if it's allowed to refer you to websites in a public post

@bamf_skiller is correct. Though in my experience, one ban on an IP isn't that much of a problem. If you're burning through accounts goldfarming green dragons, then you'll definitely want a few reliable proxies.

i think, there's little options. If u want to actually go cheap, then bot in ur home ip and if anyway want some to mask ur ip. Try the cheap proxies from a provider that u consider that no one is using so u can be more confident that isn't an flagged ip. But the main trouble is to actually find one 😛

Thanks for the info guys. I know I don't super need a proxy, but my brother plays legit on our ip and I have a bunch of other acc's so I'd rather try and play it safe now that I'm dabbling with higher risk botting. I got a cheap proxy, if it sucks I'm only down a couple bucks, so we will see.

Question tho. I'm having a hard time setting it up on my windows 10 vm. I want to set it up so my whole vm uses the proxy but I cant figure out how to have it work with the login details for the proxy? I cant seem to find any intelligent guides. I've found some stuff on using windows credentials but I cant get it to work right. I want to have my whole vm use the IP so that I can create my accounts on it. Any help would be welcome.
