Jrim,

Just a suggestion, perhaps you might want to add a feature to disable Jrim proxy judge; and the ability to add a third party proxy judge as previously.

I agree i don't like this update, because i've my own judges wich was working perfectly.

Actually for example i scraped only 15 elites, when i usually had like 700/1300 from my list.

I would really prefer adding my own proxy judge too!

Hi everyone, thank you for your suggestions and patience.

Unfortunately, every user of Proxy Multiply has a different technical knowledge level, and many do not even know what a proxy judge is. For that reason, relying on public proxy judges creates a handful of issues that were previously beyond our control. Often times public proxy judges are dead within 2-3 days after being set as the public judge for Proxy Multiply. We then decided it was best to host our own judge. After hosting our own judge and seeing how much traffic all Proxy Multiply users were sending to the proxy judges, it is very easy to understand why these servers were crashing or simply removing the file from the server and shutting the judge down.

Furthermore, public proxy judges will frequently report mixed results. That is to say, out of 100 requests to the judge, maybe 40-50 requests actually go through properly causing working proxies to report as dead. The lack of stability is hard to detect and results in users missing out on valuable proxies.

We have again upgraded the VPS that the judge is hosted from due to it once more buckling under pressure. To give you an idea of how well-equipped the VPS is now, we have load averages of less than 0.5 on the server, when previously load averages were reaching 100 (the load average is a measurement of the 'load' on the server). Now that the service has been stabilized, we do not anticipate any issues from henceforth and we are welcoming all feedback regarding the proxy judge to the support page.

At this time, due to the very high cost of hosting for the proxy judge, we are considering instituting an optional monthly fee for users to use our proxy judge. If users choose to not use the judge, they will be responsible for finding their own. From this moment on, the judge should have 100% uptime and ease the minds of most proxy testers, especially considering how tedious and cumbersome it can be to find another proxy judge.

I grabbed around 3K proxies with the trial version of PM. Checked them and got 146 Google passed proxies. I fed them into Scrapebox proxy checker and it showed that only 23 of those 146 proxies are Google passed. What's the problem here? Did I do something wrong?
I'm thinking of buying this tool and want to clarify few things before doing so.

Also is there a way to automate the tool such that it will grab say 100K proxies and then automatically start checking them?

thanks i will try this first before buying full version

To address the scrapebox issue, see http://www.blackhatworld.com/blackh...rapebox-proxy-issue-everyone-should-note.html for more information. It is due to an issue with S/Box. Do not re-test the proxies once you add them to S/Box. Just use them

Yes Proxy Multiply supports automation! Click Configuration, navigate to the Automation section and enable it. If you set the threshold to however many proxies you want to maintain a working number of, the program will work according to that.

Fair enough..

 

[Gofree]

Just tried, but the checker seems to returns all dead?

 

[5hadow12ogue]

No there isn't anything that should be stopping it from working on my laptop. I'm using a Linux machine now...so yea...definitely have nothing going on with Proxy Multiply for now. Not until I find some why to make it work on Linux.

I tried to PM you about this, but I can't due to post number count.

Your best bet is running a VM (look into VirtualBox).

Unfortunately it is now eleven hours later so I cannot say for sure what the issue was but proxy checking is working properly at this moment.

Got the first point about proxy testing.

About automation, yes that's right.
But what I mean is, like I hit some Start button, and the program will grab proxies from sources, then start checking them automatically without me needing to hit Check Proxies button. Is it possible at this point of time? Or is something like this coming in future updates?

Regards

great tool with a high potential

Hi,

This has been asked before but the functionality remains as it is to make the most of proxy harvesting and testing independently of each other. As it functions now, the resources (number of threads, CPU, RAM) are dedicated solely to proxy harvesting while 'Get Proxies!' is selected, and likewise when 'Test Proxies' is selected.

If the resources were split amongst the functionality, harvesting could become unbearably slow, or the same could happen with testing. If more users voice support for having this type of functionality implemented then it shall be done but until then I think it may confuse users that use it to harvest proxies then test directly after, especially for users who export the proxies to another source before testing.

 

[nYXem]

Well may be I'm wrong and obviously you know better, still wondering, when it first harvests and then tests those proxies, the resources are still being used by only one process at a time, first totally for harvesting, then totally for testing. Its not like they are being done simultaneously.
And it can be optional too. Like whether or not a user wants to test proxies automatically right after harvesting. Those who want can opt for so from the Configuration window. Those who don't can just ignore it. Then no question of confusion. Just an idea. I hope I'm understandable here.

And by the way, with the BHW discount we get 2 PC license, right? Didn't see it mentioned in the post hence asking.

Regards

Right, the way it is set up now, the resources are independent of each other. It is not a matter of processes but of threads and internet (bandwidth) usage.

And it can be optional too. Like whether or not a user wants to test proxies automatically right after harvesting. Those who want can opt for so from the Configuration window. Those who don't can just ignore it. Then no question of confusion. Just an idea. I hope I'm understandable here.

It will be considered for a future release Yes BHW users receive 2 licenses, sorry for the confusion!

Just set proxy multiply judge as default option for everyone, and add an additional option to use our own.

There is no confusion if you set it as Default. Just leave us free to use our own if we want and explain with a mouse over note what yo usaid about public judges... Simple...

So average users can use the default one with no problems, and wh oever want to use his own can still do it, doesn't seems to be so complicated since is an additional option, uless your aim is to make additional money.

If your judge become unresponsitive, we can't get proxies.
If your judge goes down ... same...

AS i said, also today im gettin 29 proxies from a list where i usually used get 800/900 daily (elites) with proxymultiply.

Just my 2 cents.

 

[worlddating]

nice share man thanks

 

[Jrim_Software]

doesn't seems to be so complicated since is an additional option, uless your aim is to make additional money.

The goal is not to make money at all, the goal is to cover hosting which is $XXX per month (really). The fee will be very small, at most $3.

If your judge become unresponsitive, we can't get proxies.

AS i said, also today im gettin 29 proxies from a list where i usually used get 800/900 daily (elites) with proxymultiply.

The judge will not be going down any more. It is bulletproof. Again, load averages are under 0.05.

We found a bug with elite testing on the server-side end of the judge and it has been resolved. We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused and we appreciate your patience.

i bought this software with the intention of not having to subscribe to a proxy list. had i known this software requires a server side proxy judge idk if i would have bought it in the first place. it seems that proxy judge is this applications weakest link. the software is great but its only as good as its weakest link. should you decide to stop offering service how reliable would this app be in the future? you've already mentioned how unreliable public proxy judges are. where does that leave us the customer.

Jrim Software has been established for 4 years. We are not a 'here today, gone tomorrow' type of joke you might see other places in SEO. If we stop offering the proxy judge, then you will just return to using public judges as before. Supportive measures to assist in that would be integrated into PM. However, the program has already been greatly improved by utilizing this private service, so why stop it?

you've already mentioned how unreliable public proxy judges are. where does that leave us the customer.

The only way to test a proxy's anonymity (or if the proxy even works) is to connect to a remote server. It is the nature of the beast.

Many other softwares use exclusively public proxy judges. We are trying to eliminate the headache of our users having to worry about that, and have been successful at doing so. Where does it leave you? It leaves you with a much more reliable\program now. Can Proxy Goblin say that? How about Bleach? Nope.
