Spam and Suspensions

thejadefalcon +98 -1

Aren't you all fed up with sights like this becoming more and more common? So am I. Therefore, this is a warning. Do not open or leave open more than two trading threads at once, especially for the same thing. Do not "invisibly" bump your thread every two minutes. I have begun suspending and I am not giving you just a light slap on the wrist for this amount of spam. Now, I'm more of an SG mod, I'm not good with STrades, so, please, feel free to point me towards anyone who needs it, preferably with evidence. Might as well use this thread for it. This is going to stop.

Update: This problem should never have been allowed to get to this point (and I likely would have been okay with it if the bumps were at least staggered rather than bumping six threads at once), so I'm probably going to seem overly harsh to some of you, cracking down on everything severely. Now that this is stickied, I'll give everyone a grace period of twenty-four hours (until 7:30 PM UTC, 7th) to reorganise their threads and close down any duplicates. After that, I will begin to suspend without warning.

Edit: Time's up. Suspensions begin now.

Update 2: After a talk with Yatterman, two trading threads is now acceptable, as long as they are not identical.

Update 3: Just found a nifty bug(?) on the site that'll let me close the offending threads without officially having any powers on Strades. Feel free to link the threads in future and I'll close them too.

Update 4: As some may already know, my activity will drop massively as of right now. I'll still be dealing with SteamTrades stuff whenever I can, but expect me to be a little slow on it.

Is there any way possible in the future to make a report button not just for reporting people spamming multiple threads but also people spamming/advertising on your thread. I just went to check my thread and someone not just put something I am not looking for but it is an obvious advertise of the stuff he is selling. He basically put a H and Won my thread. This is not only far from what I am buying but he is just using my thread to advertise him selling stuff

I was scammed by steam user: √•|DarKness™ Do not trade with him. He will go offline and change his profile to private as soon as he has the game and wil not send the link to his end of the deal. I do not know if he has an account here as he said that he added me because a friend told him I wanted to trade. Here is a picture of the conversation: http://i.imgur.com/g9AISo3.png He even changed his profile picture. I do not know if this is a good place to state this all..
