Does this technically violate the rules?
Say a user has opened up many trades advertising the buying of quicksell unusuals. In the trade description, however, the messages differ:

Trade 1: Buying all SCOUT unusuals.
Trade 2: Buying all SOLDIER unusuals.
Trade 3: Buying all PYRO unusuals.

This trend continues for all nine classes.

Does this technically violate the rules against reposting or is it a legal trading practice?

Thank you to whomever answers this.

I believe so, because all those trades would be open for the same reason, which is to buy unusuals.

That's what I thought, but wouldn't different classes unusuals make the goals a bit different, and thus be allowed?

Your answer might be the case, but I might want to check with an admin before i decide anything.

Yes it does. It is technically spam. Taking up space for nothing.

Your goal is "i want all your unusuals for basically free to make huge profit off you", for exactly that reason this rule was made. There is a huge list of people who does this and this rule should prevent to multiply the number of trades by factor 10 / 50 without adding any extra value to the userbase.

Btw. in all your trade notes it says youre buying SCOUT unusuals :-P.

To make the answer short and sweet -- Yes, those types of conglomerate posts are against our rules.
