How should I format my trades so I don't keep getting banned for "relisting" when not a single item is actually relisted?
I realize that I have a lot of similar items in my bp, but not a single one of my items was relisted, however all 35 of my trades were closed with the reason stating that they were "relists." http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/24833862 I also appealed this ban and it was declined. I don't want to remake 35 different trades only to find some careless admin has mistaken them for being relists and closed them all once again. SO what should I do? Because obviously the staff can't be bothered to be more scrupulous.

All your trades advertise the same trade: upgrading strange weapons. No wonder they were closed. There are no "careless admins" here, and they all try to be as "scrupulous" as they can.

One trade is enough to advertise your trade.

Maybe I can phrase it a little better, but these trades aren't to advertise a service. I'm selling these items as well as offering the ability for people to upgrade theirs. I had to take out a lot of lines of text because no one was reading and I was trying to come up with a good way to describe all of these things in combination with my item desired and my text. I mean, do you not think that my trade implies that I'm also selling these items for pure? There's keys and metal selected as the first items on the list.

Also, you haven't answered my question, you only defended your admins decisions. What can I do to sell my stranges without getting them closed? Is there something I need to put in the description? I don't want to list out all of the prices because it takes forever, I'd rather someone ask and I give them a price.
Over 500 Custom Dank Stranges. Upgrade yours to one of mine, offer me an upgrade, or buy one of mine in pure or item overpays.

This line clearly indicates you advertised all your stranges on all your trades.

If you still want to use all your trades to do this then (1) your notes must specify you are trading the listed items only; and (2) your notes may not have any reference to other unlisted items, such as the one I quoted above.

Ok, thank you for providing an answer. Still not sure how this counts as relisting, but ok dude.

And because of that your trades are even less useful than these numerous trades with 8 keys left and 8 ref right that at least list their price in the notes.

Come on, your bot is farming these off the community market so you do already have a price list, just add plus x to each number and let your bot list them automatically on outpost if thats so damn serious business for your :-P.

I don't have any bots bro, so that's not an option. If I was using bots, don't you think I'd already have figured out how to price them? rofl. Admin already provided an answer, not sure why you're here. You haven't contributed anything to this discussion.
