Signing Up & Online Security
First off, I’m glad to hear that you’ve taken the consideration to sign up for our site 
You should know, that each new user gets a free 2 day trial!
**It should be noted, that using a VPN will result in having the account temporarily disabled*
Our registration process is simple, but there are a few things to keep in mind..
Online security It’s almost 2018 and so you can never ignore the ever present cyber security threat that exists in our daily lives.
-
You should never sign up for any site, including ours, with the same email you use for Runescape.
-
This goes especially true for passwords, as you want every password for every site and service to be unique and difficult to guess. I would personally recommend using Norton's Password Generator: https://identitysafe.norton.com/password-generator
-
On top of using a password generator, you can also use password management services to help store your passwords online, so you don’t have to worry about remembering 20 different passwords and keeping them all strong. You’ll want to have a notebook to write down a “master” password for these management services. One highly recommended one is LastPass: https://www.lastpass.com/
Dashboard Launch
Upon signing up, you’ll be asked to verify your email before you can access our dashboard; this is to prevent spam bots from signing up.
*If you’re having difficulty verifying your email, please email us at: [email protected]
Once you’ve verified your email, you’ll be presented with a site tour. I highly suggest you take this tour, as it only takes 30 seconds to go through, and you’ll know all the basics you need to be able to utilize all our tools.
If you decide not to take the tour, then you’ll need to know these fundamental aspects of how the site runs:
- At the very top, you’ll notice a search bar. Here you can search up public tags that premium users apply to items to group them together in one category, or one item specifically, or many.
- Premium users will have exclusive QOL and market advantage features like filter items and unlimited suggested items refreshes. The filter option or any table setting will always be found in the upper right hand corner.
- It’s always advised to base your flips off of our graphs, and so to do this, you’ll want to visit that items page, where you’ll be presented with more information about that item.
- If you’d like to record your progress, free users can do so on the item page by utilizing the recording tool on the right hand side:
- Premium users will have a much easier time recording their profits with having access to both “OSBuddy imports & Quick Add Transaction”
- OSBuddy import: https://www.ge-tracker.com/osbuddy-import
- Quick Add Transaction: https://www.ge-tracker.com/profit-tracker/active-transactions
