Okay, so can any of the various restock champions and defenders of the old way on this thread give me a rough average NP income per hour for restocking?

hmmm i can do a min of 200k per hour if i restock at the super earn but low profit shops like choc factory or snow food. The other way's to go for the high profit items, which may mean earning millions in an hour on day and earning nothing on another day, depending on how good (or lucky you are). =D By high profit items i mean like leaded elemental vial or freezing potion. u get the drift, they are worth millions but stock so very rarely...

Well, is it against to have several windows open, all with one shop on them?

Umm nopes you can have all your windows open up on your shops.. but i dont think you are allowed to do the firefox thing where you can refresh all your opened tabs at once... so umm yeah.. correct me if I am wrong on this lol..

Yes you can definitely have multiple windows open, I've never heard of a rule against refreshing all windows at once. I just tried it and it simply lags my computer, but even if you do refresh all the shops at once, you have to flip through them to find stuff...so not sure on that rule.

As to rabids question, A good RSer who RSes for the money can make an easy 50k/hour if he knows what he's doing. This can easily go up to a consistent 100k/hour. If they're RSing in pharm, they can pick up soaps at 2/RS and usually there are 5 RSes per hour on average (that the RSer catches) Each soap is 10k profit, so taht's 100k/hour.

However, there are the long-shooters and usually those end up making 5-10k/hour, except for the lucky few who get the big item.

Clarification on a RS ban. Getting RS ban is nothing bad. If you get RS banned, that means you're just addicted to RSing. Although "ban" has a negative connotation, a RS ban is just a temporary 12-24 hour time where no shops stock any items. you don't get a warning or anything and it's not bad.

Lastly, memorize everything that's good and stocks in your shop. that's the fastest way to do it^_^.

Is anyone interested in me rewriting the article to update it or is it fine as it is?

I would like to see a rewrite that amits the random nature of life in this era

At the very least, you should edit that section to state that the times are random.


I've actually been curious lately: how much do we know about how the restock system works, particularly in relation to the frequency of rarity stock rates. After the April Fool's incident there was more than sufficient proof to show that no more than twenty-four different items can be in a Shop at once, and restocks will be cut off after that point for that Shop (which would seem to imply that once the number drops below 24, it re-triggers the timer). I've also been curious whether more than one of a single rarity can stock a time (such as more than one r99): it seems far more plausible (and likely) that a rarity is triggered, and then a random item from that rarity stocks. I don't have any real confirmation on that, though, and I was curious if anyone did. Most notable, the frequency of r99 stock rates. From what I can infer, it's four a day per Shop, but that's lacking more than suspicion and hearsay to back it up.

All MPs have rarities greater than or equal to 96
Well, I've seen a Yellow Gnorbu MP and a Yellow chomby MP (both r97s) stock on the same RS, so it's certianly possible for multiple of the same rarity to stock at once. Something I HAVE noticed, however, is that it seems like items "take turns" being more common stockers than most of the rest of the items of thier rarity for a while.

yeah , on the last half price day , 4 mp (unbuyable) pops out together , gave me quite a fright.so more than one r99 can appear in the same rs

sexysilver, if u were to rewrite , please include answer for these puzzles : 1)many shops rs 2nd time after the main rs .the time interval is less than 2 min . so huw if u know whether there is a 2nd rs ? 2) how come junk items with expensive price tag disappear from shops , we all know there arent so many noobs . 3)are shops rs independantly from one another ?

Alright, I'm drenched with work right now, but hopefully this weekend I will be able to rewrite the article and include the answers to your questions
