Stalling AFK at night

Cyndaine · Post by **Cyndaine** » Tue Jan 30, 2007 1:52 am

im wondering why this is happening everytime i stall afk @ night: i set up my stall, go to sleep, but the next morning my stall is gone and im just standing there...with all my items returned to my inventory. why is this? is it becus u can only stall for a certain amt of time?

Black_mamba once said in another topic that if you're going to stall overnight.

That you should open all ingame windows and aim you're camera straight up into the sky,so that you're watching the clouds.

She said it prevented disconnecting,so it might be worth checking out to see if it actually works in you're case aswell.

Don't poke my eye out,but it's worth a shot.

I think some form of bug seems to be active,by appealing to more ingame commands that bug might get cancelled or even sidetracked.

You've got nothing to lose by trying right?

i was gonna say maybe its a rat problem. If you ever see a little turd on the esc button then call an exterminator and your stall will soon be operational throughout the night

Your logic has failed.
The game now has implemented image code verification. Autologin doesn't work anymore. Try again.

lol, my house is very clean, i dont have rats running around

@Dimitri: i dont bot, and if i did i wouldnt b stupid enough to go and post evidence of me botting. but, if u must insist that i am possibly a botter, there is nothing i can do about it. all u need to know is that im not a botter and ur good

My problem is worst, whenever i stall overnight, it stalls overnight, but nobody`s buying my items, i think the price is good, i stalled a 29 lvl shield +2 with 12br (maybe this is the prob???), str 2, crit 9(+20%), immortal 3times for 70k, nobody bought it. why is that ? maybe someone can help me to decide the prices or something, how do you know what prices to make ?

P.S. Sorry for OFF-Topic

thank you

woah thats exactly what i do, except i dont stare at the clouds i stare at the dirt floor of donhwang.

and i sell all my items and my stall disappears after due time.

btw to redbull, maybe you should put your stall somwhere where itll get attention, and just do everything you can do advertise.

heres the secret to stalling 24/7 and reducing the powerload on your cpu. has nothing to do with opening new windows, pointing your camera straight into the air. that does nothing for you at all. heres what you do. on your keyboard, hold ctrl+alt and hit delete. that will open up windows task manager. now either one of the two followings will happen. sro freezes up or sro goes on like nothing happens. when you have windows task manager open and sro is running fine, you will notice your cpu usage on windows task manager is going through the roof (very high % usage). now left click anywhere on windows task manager, you will now notice sro has frozen and if you look at your cpu usage, it should be at 0%, if its not you have programs running in the background. enjoy and hope u sell everything u stall overnight. =D

um, why not just run SRO in window mode and just click anywhere on your desktop background or whatever to freeze sro and drive the cpu power away from the SRO client. You could always just open like windows pain which takes very little cpu

btw, SRO in window mode is [Widows Key]+[ALT]+[ENTER]

Hehe funny to see others using the same techniques. THough I combine them. I zoom all the way in, look straight up, and then put the cursor in a text box stall or main chat will do. Then hit the windows key to bring up menu. And the game stops drawing sending CPU usage way low. Then alt-tab to another app to be safe then go to sleep ^_^.

lol it's amazing.... I've been using computers for about 20+ years and I've never thought of doing that to reduce CPU usage. I always tend to make things too complicated to think of something as simple as that. I will try out that technique from now on.

Black_Mamba · Post by **Black_Mamba** » Tue Jan 30, 2007 8:06 pm

You don't have to aim at the sky, I just did that cuz it lessens the activity on the screen. I always dc'd if I just stalled as normal with the stall window open and that was it, like everyone running past made it dc. You hardly ever dc in a grind area just in towns, so by opening the windows your keeping activity on the screen without overloading it.

Does seem to work, I had a stall open non stop for 3 days once, I got the idea from Phunky, he told me about it. I left open the help, guild, inventory, stall windows and then threw a map on top of all 4.

I'd minimise the game too so the pc was only showing my desktop. 99% of the time I'd wake up to find myself still logged in.

oh it works, just make sure you do a windows update every now and then. make sure your windows is properly updated. i have my stall up after the server inspection and never dc until the next server inspection. thats a week of stalling!!

Isnt there a glitch or a exploit that another player does to a staller to make the stall close? ive had it happen and thats what several have told me and ive had other people in stalls with me and they typed bye to the staller and the stall closed really fast, sure theres a chance that the staller closed it but still it goes with the rumor

DeaDSwarM · Post by **DeaDSwarM** » Wed Jan 31, 2007 6:47 am

ROFL, changing camera view

that the stupidest thing
i've heard... HTF does changing your cam view prevent
you from DCing?

Yes you can D/C someone stalls, but then you're DC'ed and not online.

btw it worked, but I'm not planning to stall 24/7. I rather npc things and I'm not patient enough to resell sos, I always make less money after i use them, because I want to get rid of them most off the time.
