Like five times a minute? Would they notice the bandwidth I'd be using?

Well considering all the servers Roblox uses..you would be a speck.
And when was there a title limit? |

This title lives.
They might notice if you told them...
You just did...

@Pre It's their fault for not providing an AJAX API for what I want to do. ;)

Considering Roblox has over a petabyte of monthly data transfer, I would say they wouldn't notice. And wouldn't care. You would slow the site down by nothing.
Stupid title length >_< We should get every post to have long titles. |

An automatic limited-snipe program?
The answer is probably not, unless you made the refresh rate completely insane.
One caution: Keep in mind how they reacted to the massive F5 bombs a few years back. They thought they were getting DDoS'd. So yeah, if you plan on distributing this thing - do not underestimate the power of the Roblox community.
Granted it was a few years ago; they doubtlessly have better servers/infrastructure but still - be careful. |

Didn't MDB say something about IP banning an entire country once as well? Or is that related? |

@Legend26
I don't think that was related, I heard that as well (poor Norway), but never as anything beyond a "MDB said this" quote. |

| I remember him mentioning it, but I doubt I'd be able to find a link to the post. I started tracking interesting threads too late. |

If ROBLOX doesn't want to make AJAX for their item pages, then they deserve having to upload the entire stupid page.

Maybe ROBLOX doesn't want you to so easily get information about the prices of Limited items. |

@Merely I'm gonna make it either way, it's up to ROBLOX how much strain it puts on their servers lol.

'IP banning an entire country'
Britain and I don't know how much more of the world was cut off from Roblox a few weeks ago for a few hours. Maybe country-wide IP ban? |

@Pre
The one I remember; I think the one Legend remembers is Norway.
The quote as I recall:
"We were having some problems narrowing it down, so then we banned Norway; that seemed to solve it." - MDB |
