Contact your IT department and let them know that they've gotten banned, and to have them let us know when they've addressed the issue.Īre you browsing GameFAQs from an area that filters all traffic through a single proxy server (like Singapore or Malaysia), or are you on a mobile connection that seems to be randomly blocked every few pages? Then we'll definitely want to look into it - please let us know about it here. There are plenty of other eBay 'sniping' tools, but this is the one that I use. So just bid at the min bid and then snipe later and youll be alright. You set the item that you want to bid on and set your max bid, and then as soon as it gets really close to the end it autobids just enough for you to win. I then realized if you have another bid on that item, your bid NEVER gets rejected. You'll need to disable that add-on in order to use GameFAQs.Īre you browsing GameFAQs from work, school, a library, or another shared IP? Unfortunately, if this school or place of business doesn't stop people from abusing our resources, we don't have any other way to put an end to it. I only manually snipe, and Ive lost out on some items in the same way, but I just assumed I bid too late. When we get more abuse from a single IP address than we do legitimate traffic, we really have no choice but to block it. If you don't think you did anything wrong and don't understand why your IP was banned.Īre you using a proxy server or running a browser add-on for "privacy", "being anonymous", or "changing your region" or to view country-specific content, such as Tor or Zenmate?

That way, in almost all cases teh AU account will win, which makes thinks a LOT easier (for a variety of reasons I wont discuss here).

Gixen mirror: 6 (seconds) - So, what this does is sends the first bid at 8 seconds to AU. rePete said, Keeping the same conditions and assuming your eSnipe bid is set to 6 seconds to go. IP bans will be reconsidered on a case-by-case basis if you were running a bot and did not understand the consequences, but typically not for spamming, hacking, or other abuse. In the gixen scenario, current bid10 and some other guy has maxbid15. If you are responsible for one of the above issues. Having an excessive number of banned accounts in a very short timeframe.Running a web bot/spider that downloaded a very large number of pages - more than could possibly justified as "personal use".Automated spam (advertising) or intrustion attempts (hacking).I thought I was the winner until with 1second left and everything 'flashed' and I was told I lost. I received a message I was 'in danger' of being outbid with about 30 seconds left.
