Help with understanding proxy..

[Slade]

Hello community.

So I'm new to botting and working torwards setting up a small botfarm to later grow it bigger. But I'm stuck on proxies. 
From what I udnertand I need socks5 proxies, but should I get residential proxies or not? And should I have one proxy for every bot?

What are the pros and cons?

 

Thanks alot for help

Go without proxies at first, after you notice chain bans, then you could consider getting proxies. Proxies only really prevents chain bans.

Okay I see. Should I make accounts on my own or should I buy bulk?

And if I understand it right, webshare is offering 10 free proxies befor I need to upgrade. Isn't it better to use those anyways? To prevent chain ban?

Up to you if you need bulk or not, I just created my own program to create mass accounts.

I would say don't use the proxies, they could be bad/tagged. Just use your own ip until it seems bad imo.

Buy proxys for your best botter accounts because you dont want to risk getting in a chain ban.

When you playing on 1 ip adress with all your bot farms is not smart at all and most of the time if you get banned you will get instant chain banned on the ip adres you are playing on.
