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.

I honestly don't understand why people are getting reported for this. They're asking for different things in each thread which, to me, makes them different trades (different trades = not identical = not a duplicate). Also, they only have 2 threads so it's not like they're harming anyone else :S

ditto that but I have been told as long as you are offering the same items, that makes them duds. zzz

it is a dupe the only thing important is what you are offering, and that is not to be duped if you want different things then put everything you want in the same thread so your not taking up space on the front page for people offering different things.

So just to make clear

Offering same games = dupe (doesnt matter what you want put those in same thread)

1 decade ago

Why is it that the only things that are important are the things that are being offered, I don't understand how that makes sense? And if someone's only using their two threads then it doesn't matter if they're taking up space on the front page.

if someone has 2 threads that say:

[h] halflife 2 & terraria [w] orcs must die

[h] halflife 2 & terraria [w] shoot many robots

why is that worse than

[h] halflife 2 [w] shoot many robots or orcs must die

[h] terraria [w] shoot many robots or orcs must die

Think about it - logically it makes literally no sense :S

its the rules my friend just because it is something you dont agree with doesnt make it not a rule and to me makes perfect sense so that whatever thread i click in the offer is different not some guy duping his games and taking up space just to get noticed more, same rules apply on tf2 outpost its not a new concept. Like i said there is no need to make different threads just put (W) Offers or (W) "Specific Games" or if theres not enough room for all the games you want (W) See Inside. Many ways you can do it without duping your offered games.

Oh, I'll punish for that too, I think, but the former is a little more obviously spam.

Apparently, these 2 guys gave neg reps first, then thread creator gave them back, but he still gave me 1 too without reason, writing that I'm scammer.

EDIT reps are deleted to that moment, but these lies cannot be ignored...

EDIT: He removed it himself after we were able to talk on Steam.

I've had a user leave me negative rep for scamming him (which I didn't do - it was probably this guy - a known impersonator - pretending to be me with the same name and avatar.

One person realised their mistake after I talked to them (they changed the rep after that), but I was unable to talk to the other person.

STEAMTRADES profile - http://www.steamtrades.com/user/HamxaRonY

id - HamxaRony

real name - Hamxa Ali

He did scamm me on paypal. I sold him a gift of CS:GO and he sent me my money. But after a day or two he opened a dispute on me and said he has nothing to do with it. Right now he got the money back, because of lame paypal service. Here's a proof he opened the dispute on me. And now he even gave me negative rep, for giveing him negative rep. I would apreciate if you ban this jerk and remove my negative feedback.

A little proof, can provide more if its necessary.

It cost's 2 eur to transfer to bank. Why should i send so small amount? If i had like 20+ i would.

Btw, wouldn't my paypal balance go negative?

Isn't transferring money free? AFAIK yes. PayPal steals (earns) on very unfair currency changing.
