[AH Bot] HappyAuction

[DripDropFun]

@spammero please check the price on the item you posted. That fury is around $200 here. Despite of the server difference, I don't think that items should be priced beyond $1000. I do sometime get lucky, too. but trust me, I used to snipe or bid at least twenty $1000 worth items a week. it's down to one or two. low number of players does not explain such huge drop. still, believe it or not, it is upto you sir.

@drip I do admit that there is a possibility that my report could've insinuated ah botting, but I was not stupid enough to mention any of the following words in the report: ha, bot, ah botting, DripDropFun As I said earlier, and I will accentuate the point again; what chinese ppl utilize is totally different from ha and any other ah botting. It cannot even be called botting, it's something else. For god's sake, they don't even have their D3 auction house on their screen. Plus, blizz is well aware of the existence of ha and many other ah bots and thousands of ah macroes. why do you think they are not coming up with some decent prevention method, other than periodical bans, to eradicate all the ah botter yet? please think about it.

for those of you so eager to prove me wrong, I will give you a hint on the chinese method and I hope everyone could come to reality and comprehend the situation we are in.

FIVE MINUTOS!!!!!

p.s. I will not give you any further info on the method, nor will I react to any further folliness. and @ztnko sir, I do make a lot more than you do.

If you didn't metion such words in your reports, then.. what a relief!


but as you know, despite of so many bans and preventions, I wanna accentuate again, the "FOCUS" of Blizz.
we have to be silent as possible as we can.
noise is BAD thing to all of us.


and... dude.

don't be greedy.

I also make around 1000~1500$ / week, and I'm satisfied with it.
you can spoile the whole pie with heavy-dark(?)-competition.
make your mind in peace with making free-money its soooooo good enough friend!!!!

lol this fury is not worth 200$ only on EU, 200$ range is 1180-1200 dps with 80+ CD/socket but my fury have 1280+ dps, 80+ CD/socket and 0.24aps (it's top 3 eu), I have two 25-30b private offers atm... anyway i dont think on mystic alternate IP server method used by chinese ppl for buy items before become available on AH.

don't be greedy.

Agree, Im satisfied with 200-400€ daily with a few bots running.

Pardon me if I appeared too greedy or cocky. I am happy with status quo, too. I was just nostalgic about a bit more glamorous days back then Again, I just wanted to give you all heads up, or possible explanation of recent drop of items snipes/bids. I take your concerns, and I apologize for what could negatively affect us in the future because of my report. I will not file any further complaint or submit report or follow up on their replies, etc. We will all be silently happy here, happy auctioning

I believe there's a possibility the 5-minutes exploit is still out there and I believe what you have suggested the Chinese are doing.
Blizz has F'ed up before with the 5-minutes auction posting rules (remmeber about 3 to 4 patches back, ppl could buy dirt cheap $100 mistake post when people accidentally post it up as 100gold in the GAH). I'm sure there's another way to grab exploit those one. Blizz devs are quite retarded. I woudn't put it past them for having some loophole around the 5-minutes rules again.

There have been quite a few reports on the D3 forums regarding AH Bugs where people bought items but never got money OR people sold items but never got their money. Perhaps the bug caused that to happen. Either way, thanks for letting us know about your investigation and I hope that Blizz will do something about it so the race would at least be fairer.

Now, if I can someone gets my brain warped around finding this 5-minutes auction bug... lol

[DripDropFun]

and.... I should mention about the "mystic method".

the method is so easy to imagine to game-related-engineers
not need even D3 clients, does it?


but... beilive me.
Its not that easy.

need big money and time and........ good reverse-engineers to make it.

think about what Chui tried to do - reading from memory directly bypassing tooltip info.
it was hard thing to even master Chui himself.
(this is totally differ from the method, but I wanna emphasize how difficult knowing the whole structure is)


same. If they succeeded P***** S******, then....

let them go dude.

Even though Blizz bann the chiness and their method
They can change their method so easily (just giving it a little change - similar to HA against every patch)
- I can 1000000000% SURE

and... lawsuit? US law have no power in chiness territories

[DripDropFun]

@ msk380 / that's right! Haaaappyyy AUUUUCCTIOOONing!!!

@ knightxii / "so the race would at least be fairer" -> hahaha you make HA users big smile, dude


btw, you guys thought about the exploit?
what I mentioned is bigger-scale method - more powerful and... more(?) ILLEGAL lol


exploit can be completely useless so easilly and never usable it again in online games.
as soon as Blizz knows about it, will stop instantly



p.s. so many posts! (thx msk380 haha)
it will be good to hear friend-botters are doing. how about your status? banns... any news?

[Sehae]

The quantity of reallygreat items in the AH is not lower now, it is just that we don;t even get to see them. It's that simple and this is the moment when you miss an item and don't even get a failed report, about which I was talking before.
I am also making good money (more than 1k euro weekly if this is good enough for you) and have uttermost respect for Chui and the community here and I also respect fair competition. Reporting AH bugs that are exploitable does not make us endangered in any way. Otherwise, when chinese expand even more we will all lose even more of our potential profits.
Cheers.

Pls let end this pointless wall of text pls.

If they code a tiny client(possible but highly improbable) they are good, /bow to that coder, but i can't see how that could help, if not for have 100 bot in 1 computer.

There is nothing like " the five minute list!!!! "..why the hell should those info leave the server? those don't travel until the 5 minutes is expired, then they are sent, so A: the chines megabrain live inside the cluster... B: you are in rage with competitors and you need a scapegoat.

I invite Chui to pls share a little of what he learned digging the client, on this matter, friend chui, do you believe something like this exist?

If you fletch 1000 dollars or euros per week, you should stop buy drugs and pile them for a house, and probably even stop share info (but if you were, you probably already know.)

My theory is, the 5-minutes rule is applied on the items as a visibility-flag. Not sure if this is correct but for now this is my theory. What this visibility-flag does is, it prevents the item to be shown on the Auction house. VISIBILITY only controls whether AH-user can see the items on the auction house. There's a possibility that the items is already on the AH server and can be accessed without being "VISIBLE". If you can dig into memory writing, editing, and force the items to be bought (just like how one would hack bid-only items and turn it into a buy-out and steal the item before bidding time expires - FYI this exploit has existed before and many have reported it). Things like this exist due to Blizzard brilliant/retarded dev team.

Stop cry, there are now 10 times more people farming ah.

August will be very long.

Why do you guys waste your time with this Chinese-uber-hacker theory? Why don't you just put something that is of high value and easy to evaluate even for a noob botter (i.e, a 190 stat 9 6.0 Mempo) on the GAH and see if the item got bought within the initial 5 minutes? I tried with 2 items and saw nothing.

[RodeoRaider]

No one is commenting on the Chinese-uber-hacker theory anymore?

[ChuiChu]

lol whats been happening here? CN uber hax?

update: i have HA fully reworked now and mostly tested (all functions) except it still needs a retest on multiclient and in different locales. also haFilterType is currently disabled until i redo it to be locale-indep

if anyone needs it as i describe let me know and ill post an update... otherwise ill keep plugging away
