$97 spent on nothing. I will be very careful before buying any of SweetFunny's stuff from now on...

Why is it on nothing? Its a functional product and does what it says it does. Its not like stuff is broken. Its not as good as Xrumer, but its 1/6th the price and still cheaper then other tools besides Xrumer that work with forums. Captcha Sniper works with it too, I tested it, Captcha Sniper doesn't support all the forums that Scrapeboard does, but it can up your success rate without having to pay decaptcher.com
 
Is Scrapeboard actually released or still in development or abandoned? I'm seeing a lot of different things, but I thought it "accidentally" got released when SF didn't actually expect people to pay for it yet or something along those lines. Someone just got ahold of the site and it spread like wildfire before she could announce that she wasn't finished with it yet.

Anything?
 
"Enable logging of response pages" will help to locate such issue.

That could be realized.

Thats not possible, because the profile details are xml files, and the account files just plain text file to keep them small.
Imagine the overhead of xml when you have 10mio. url (= 10 mio. profiles). The file would be huge and loading would take forever.


How do you make scrapeboard retry the activation emails that are listed in "response viewer"?

i cant select "activate forum accounts" because i cant find a ".sbem" file anywhere.

Yeah, I totally regret that spent $97 for this unfinished, abandoned software. First few months were awesome. Updates were rolling out almost every week. But it's been a long time since I only see updates like "yahoo scrapper changed" "google scraper changed". I.e. stuff that 98% of sboard users don't give a shit about...

I never thought, that sweetfunny can betray her/his users so much. Great hit for authority. Not good, not good...

The software is not abandoned. There is nothing crucial to fix at the moment, so it makes no sense to release a new version just for some small fixes... There will be a new version when enough changes has been made.
99% of the reported issues have been user error, not program errors.

SF is betraying customer? Are you out of your mind???

I doubt... No updates at all. Only minor changes, nothing special.

Really? How about adding support of spinning date, ICQ, MSN, AIM, YM; Improving OCR; Adding support of nested spinning; Solving issues with "unknown platform" when platform is actually known; Email download issues for more than 250 emails (yeah, I know it's mail-side issue, but I never had this issue in any other software). Here are only few things that need to be improved/fixed. I can't remember more right now.

Sorry, but for what I received for $97, it's real betrayal. SBox is great, while SBoard is BS.

And i think it should been said long time ago, we could avoid all this bad stuff in this topic.
Good way to inform people would be also putting this info in "info box" in scrapeboard just to let everyone you are working on it and there's no point to release partial changes. Just this. Give some info to your customers.

It has been abandoned. She is not working on improving it anymore as far as I know. Maybe only the scraper.
 
Well for only $97 its still a good product as it is, and its not betrayal. Its does what its supposed to. You can even use captcha sniper with it to increase success and not have the re-occuring costs for decaptcher.com

Plus it posts to blogs as a bonus, which I am using.
 
I got scrapebox. Should i buy scrapeboard? can somebody recommend it???

I can't agree, sorry. For less you can get fully functional app which will do better than sboard can do now. People already pointed why it doesnt do what it suppose to.
 
well, i guess there wont be anymore "scrapeboard vs. xrumer threads"

A good product my ass. Check forum-bot in the item section. 100 times better than scrapeboard at $47....
 
why sir?
and is there such a difference? a big difference ?

Scrapeboard is for forums, scrapebox is centered around blogs but does many many things. The swiss army knife of BHW SEO as it were.

I have Xrumer mate, and its not 100 times better then scrapeboard. 40% of the forum profiles that scrapeboard can generate, Xrumer can't even generate. Albeit overall from given lists I have scraped, Xrumer is of course able to build more urls, as it has better captcha breaking. But overall on a given list when I tested I think scrapeboard was able to get about 1/5th of the forum profiles that xrumer was able to get, plus of course the ones xrumer couldn't get. So at that point it becomes a numbers game.
 
100 times better
If you have quite good list u can get about 50k profiles each blast.
50 000/100 = 500 (not possible, but let's assume it is)
40% of 500 is 200. That's your "numbers game".
If you was able to get 1/5 of xrumer profiles that means you got 10.000 profiles "and of course" that 200 you told us about.
Nobody ever got 10 000 profiles from scrapeboard. I told you before (when you mentioned proxies before), I'll repeat again, in each new post in this topic you look like you don't know what you're talking about.

I think you completely misunderstood what I meant.

I mean that if I ran a list of 40K urls

and I came out with 10,000 profiles from Xrumer
I would get about 1500 from scrapeboard off the same list. (mind you the list was made for Xrumer, I just ran it thru scrapeboard to see what I could get).

Out of those 1500, 40% of them did not exist in the 10,000 that Xrumer was able to make. While the other 60% Xrumer also made a forum on the same domain.

You certainly can make 10,000 profiles with scrapeboard, you just need to get a big enough list to do it. I mean off the one list for Xrumer that I had lying around I made 1500 profiles, just with the internal captcha solver, no decapther.com or any captcha solving service.

So if you want to make 10,000 profiles with scapeboard then just scrape more lists or make a list targeted to platforms and captchas supported by scrapeboard.

Also of course you could buy Captcha Sniper for $99 or whatever it is, somewhere in there and then use it to solve captchas that scrapeboard can't natively solve. Its one time purchase and you can use it forever and with other programs. So then you just way upped your success, especially if you target platforms that it does.

So how does your misunderstanding of my posts make me look like I have no idea what I am talking about?

Anyway, scrapeboard works, it can make 10,000 profiles. If you wanted to make 20,000 you just need a bigger list and so on.
