cringelord Posted August 4, 2014 Share Posted August 4, 2014 Hey. So I have a trade for my taunts on outpost and bp.tf www.tf2outpost.com/trade/21683910 - as you can see, there is BIG RED LINE saying trade offers only. On bp.tf I also posted taunts on classifieds. I set it to trade offers only and in description I put big "TRADE OFFER" text 20 times. Results? 43 (yes, I have counted them) people added me. 5 people sent trade offers. REALLY?! Is this because it went F2P and kids flooded the game or just people are so stupid? How to stop them from adding me? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

d0 ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) Posted August 4, 2014 Share Posted August 4, 2014 When I had Steam client issues and couldn't access the trade window, whenever a user added me I asked them very kindly and calm "Can you please send a trade offer because I got issues with Steam. I can't see the trade window for some reason *link to trade offer*" People blocked me, removed me instantly, sent a trade request *I declined it and repeated myself* and then they sent another... Unsure if they are unaware what trade offers are, if they're confused with a phishing link but people are just way to scared to send trade offers for some weird reason. I had like 20+ trades I couldn't do that day when trade window was glitching for me. Really annoying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

3.50 Posted August 4, 2014 Share Posted August 4, 2014 in description I put big "TRADE OFFER" text 20 times. Anything in colors gets ignored. On purpose, because it's mildly offensive, unless you're being creative with it. "That's whatcha get" --Engineer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lolz Posted August 5, 2014 Share Posted August 5, 2014 I've never understood why everyone rages about getting adds. What's the problem with people adding you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've never understood why everyone rages about getting adds. What's the problem with people adding you?Because 80% of the time they offer something you wouldn't accept, ask for a discount, are a phisher, are incomprehensible, or are a bother to deal with; all of which waste time and could be prevented by just using trade offers.

Sasuke200 Posted August 5, 2014 Share Posted August 5, 2014 I decline all invites if they are under level 10 or if we don't have any friends in common. All my trades say "Trade Offers Only" and my profile says "Comment before adding" and I still get 5 - 12 a day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
