Scrapebox Tip

[ampie]

I don't know if this has been shared or not, but here it goes:

I've found that using the slow poster is annoying as it hijacks your screen while it's posting.

A thing I do to get around this and have almost the same results is to use the fast poster and then export the failed entries and use the fast poster again on those. Rinse and repeat if necessary.

This way, I have my screen open and I still have about the same effectiveness as the slow poster.

My scrapebox runs in the background... and it doesn't steal any screen real-state

Even in slow poster?

The only way I can get rid of the slow poster from hijacking my screen is to click a dozen plus times out of Scrapebox and sometimes that won't even work.

I've just given up on that and started reposting failed comments until it's not effective anymore. It's just as good as the slow poster.

You can also copy the folder and name it scrapebox2 and run a second scrapebox session.

This is a reply from SF today:

Settings >> Use slow commenter accurate mode (untick it)

Then it will use the normal slow poster rather than the accurate mode which simulates a browser and natural input.

I would recommend using the slow poster when you don't need your screen. When you first use it, it brings a message up saying to keep it active for it to work properly so that is why it keeps popping up.

I agree with mistachewy...

yeah, i just minimize it and it runs in the background. It pops up sometimes, but I just minimize it again.

I think it's a good idea to use the accurate mode as it really is much more accurate.

I do agree that it's annoying so I generally leave the accurate mode running while I'm asleep.

Or, if you have a spare PC lying around (who doesn't these days!), you could just switch the license to that PC, and run it on that one, 24/7. I have an old laptop that I'm just about to setup for this very purpose.

Or, as I'm doing not with scrapebox, but with all the bots that need some time to operate, I have 2 users on my PC, one for the bots and the second for my personal use and just switch between them. I came up with this solution when I was running hundreds of loops on iMacros and on every loop iMacros would hijack the screen to upload some files.
