Scrapebox issues...

I use my scrapebox software about once a year because everytime I try to use it, it has issues...

I find myself trying to set it up and getting it working takes more time than to just manually post comments. I fired up the old scrapebox last night because I got some good proxies.

Well, I blasted out a 1000 comments to wordpress. It had a 75% success rate. Pretty good, right?

NOPE!

I checked my links and 0% posted. ZERO!!!!

So I thought maybe they were in moderation. So I used SB to post some comments on my personal wordpress blogs...

After it said "Success", I checked my wp blogs, guess what... NO COMMENTS in query. Not even in the spam section. No comments even made it to my blogs.

So after about 3 hours of various testing, I finally got it to post to the spam section. I don't know what I did, but atleast we are making progress, right? NOPE!!!

Guess what, scrapebox isnt even using the proxies I inputed, it's using my personal IP!!!!

WTF????

So after 24 hours of "setting up" and "tweaking", I can't even use my good proxies that I aquired... it's will only use my personal proxies.

NOW I can't even make 'real' comments on wordpress blogs now because my IP is blocked by Akismet.


This is why I rarely use Scrapebox because it has issues. Some issues are probably user error because scrapebox isn't very intuitive. And the demo videos they give are way OUTDATED.

I'm so fed up right now.

Anyone having issues where SB won't use proxies, but instead your personal IP?

This is bad, real bad!
