calling out on fake then.
fair enough
How much time do you spend on trading then and how many computers do you have running with 700 accounts?
The guy said he runs 50 account every day, 7 days a week. and he relies on the 2 week item overflow so he can run 700 accounts in 2 weeks. I don't even know how, running 24 accounts takes up 13gb ram on my computer.

Not just the accounts though, but it takes a fair amount of time to setup all those accounts and then setup TF2Idle to run them.

Do you run it as a business, or just to get a shit load of metal?
Man.
I need like 1,000 more accounts.
[QUOTE=soulquarian;35769960]Do you run it as a business, or just to get a shit load of metal?[/QUOTE]
Personally, I only run 9 premium accounts (8 idle and my main). I run 32 F2P accounts, but only since recently. When a salvaged drops on an account, I'll upgrade it as I go (or when I run out of room for metal).

Why don't you just buy back pack expanders? Much easier then getting another premium account.

7.5gb for 22 acc's for me, will do 30, when add some ram.

How do you run so many with only like 8gb of ram?
My PC slows down quite a bit when Im running 24 accounts. Total ram usage is usually 10-12 gigs taking into account everything thats running on my pc. I've currently got 16 gigs installed, you think getting more would actually make my PC run smoother?
Windows creates the pagefile needed when you exceed your physical RAM usage. Having a fast harddrive like an SSD (or probably running the pagefile on another physical harddrive) will help keep responsiveness of the operating system.

Is there a way to increase the pagefile system so you can make more RAM available?
Windows automatically adjusts the pagefile size when needed. You should download this free program so you can optimize and free up the pagefile during heavy use. I use it and it really helps with system responsiveness on high pagefile sizes.

Thanks for that GreenDolphin, I did notice an improvement when i installed cleanmem
What is the cheapest thing in the Mann Co. store to buy for premium accounts?
[QUOTE=BlueYoshi;35795062]What is the cheapest thing in the Mann Co. store to buy for premium accounts?[/QUOTE]
You need to add $5 to your Steam Wallet before you can buy anything.
[QUOTE=soulquarian;35778770]Why don't you just buy back pack expanders? Much easier then getting another premium account.[/QUOTE]
Because I have my main, which I use for trading, and one of my idle accounts as my 'alt' where all the metal goes to. Basically I can jump into my alt account and autocraft knowing that I won't accidentally craft something I shouldn't have. I use sandboxie to transfer all the metal to the alt account. To upgrade the account, I just buy keys, as these move easier than backpack expanders, you make, at most, about 1 ref extra for a backpack expander over buying keys. It takes 4-5 weeks for the backpack to become full on the F2P account, so it just means spending 30 minutes every 4 weeks transferring metal to my alt.
[QUOTE=BlueYoshi;35795062]What is the cheapest thing in the Mann Co. store to buy for premium accounts?[/QUOTE]
The cheapest is BONK!, which is 49c (IIRC). But the minimum amount you can put in your steam wallet is $5. Most people buy backpack expanders or keys, or buy a 49c item, then use the funds for a game (if you have $4.51 left in your account and buy a game for $10, it will just deduct the remaining amount of $5.49 from your credit card/paypal). Either way, you 'lose' money, as keys in trade are only worth ~$1.60, Expanders are around $4, and the games you usually sell at a 20% loss compared to 'trade' key value, ie. a $10 game on the store will be worth about 5 keys (unless you only value the game because you want it for yourself). Games are also harder to move.

Do you know if you can run more than this? My graphics totally bomb and it can't write font's to memory and the like when I try to startup more than 24-25.
This sounds like it might be a known limitation?
I have like 40 right now all premiums

[QUOTE=BlackAz;35804458]How much you have vram?[/QUOTE]
560ti 1gb, same shit.
Doubt it is videocard problem.
how much ram does this take per account?
A bit more then 400 MB but as posted on the previous page that doesn't matter much since if you reach your limit the accounts will be cached on your page file.
If you run the accounts on a server you can get down to about 8 mbs.
Whenever I attempt to launch sandboxie I get this error, help please?

Did you buy the program or get a cracked version?

My methods of acquiring sandboxie may have been slightly illegal.
[I]Yes.[/I]

This error usually always occurs with pirated copies of Sandboxie. It's to do with the way driver signing works on 64-bit Windows. If you're using a legitimate version of Sandboxie then make sure the Sandboxie service is enabled via Msconfig.

Now how would I go about making one account create an idle server, and then have the others join that server?
I would put a custom command somewhere, but I'm not sure where, or the command.
