Abuse tolerant ticketing system

A ticket distribution system for classifying users and provide unique interaction for a plurality of users, the ticket distribution system comprising:

• a ticketing engine that:
• receives a first interaction, wherein a first user is part of the plurality of users;
• receives a second interaction, wherein a second user is part of the plurality of users;
• correlates the first interaction of the first user with the ticket distribution system;
• correlates the second interaction of the second user with the ticket distribution system;
• an interaction classifier that:
• classifies the first interaction of the first user with the ticket distribution system;
• assigns a first class to the first user according to the classification of the first interaction;
• operates an interface to the ticket distribution system according to a first profile for the first class;
• classifies the second interaction of the second user with the ticket distribution system;
• assigns a second class to the second user according to the classification of the second interaction;
• and
• an interface manipulation engine that:
• modifies the interface to the ticket distribution system for a second profile for the second class such that the second user is treated with a range of different interface factors from the first user during the purchase process;
• wherein the different interface factor between the first user and the second user is chosen from a group consisting of:
• checkout speed;
• responsiveness of the interface;
• visibility of the interface;
• ticket cost;
• ticket quantity availability;
• ticket seat availability;
• authentication level;
• and
• availability of the interface.

A method for classifying users of a ticket distribution system to provide unique interaction for a plurality of users, comprising:

• receiving a first interaction, wherein a first user is part of the plurality of users;
• correlating the first interaction of the first user with the ticket distribution system;
• classifying the first interaction of the first user with the ticket distribution system;
• assigning a first class to the first user according to the classifying of the first interaction;
• operating an interface to the ticket distribution system according to a first profile for the first class;
• receiving a second interaction, wherein a second user is part of the plurality of users;
• correlating the second interaction of the second user with the ticket distribution system;
• classifying the second interaction of the second user with the ticket distribution system;
• assigning a second class to the second user according to the classifying of the second interaction;
• and
• modifying the interface to the ticket distribution system for a second profile for the second class such that the second user is treated with a different interface factor than the first user during the purchase process;
• wherein the different interface factor between the first user and the second user is chosen from a group consisting of:
• checkout speed;
• responsiveness of the interface;
• visibility of the interface;
• ticket cost;
• ticket quantity availability;
• ticket seat availability;
• authentication level;
• and
• availability of the interface.

A ticket distribution system for classifying users and provide unique interaction for a plurality of users, the ticket distribution system comprising:

• one or more processors;
• and
• one or more memories coupled with the one or more processors, wherein the one or more processors and the one or more memories are configured to:
• receive a first interaction, wherein a first user is part of the plurality of users;
• correlate the first interaction of the first user with the ticket distribution system;
• classify the first interaction of the first user with the ticket distribution system;
• assign a first class to the first user according to the classification of the first interaction;
• operate an interface to the ticket distribution system according to a first profile for the first class;
• receive a second interaction, wherein a second user is part of the plurality of users;
• correlate the second interaction of the second user with the ticket distribution system;
• classify the second interaction of the second user with the ticket distribution system;
• assign a second class to the second user according to the classification of the second interaction;
• and
• modify the interface to the ticket distribution system for a second profile for the second class such that the second user is treated with a range of different interface factors from the first user during the purchase process;
• wherein the different interface factor between the first user and the second user is chosen from a group consisting of:
• checkout speed;
• responsiveness of the interface;
• visibility of the interface;
• ticket cost;
• ticket quantity availability;
• ticket seat availability;
• authentication level;
• and
• availability of the interface.
