Same item listed twice vs. the rules ?
Hello,

I have problem with the interpretation of the no spamming rule: "Posting the same thing multiple times on the same trade."

Does it mean that users cannot list the same item twice (in the same time)?

Example:
Mr. Smith wants to sell his Bill's Hat - he wants to sell it quickly so he makes 10 same or similar bill/sell threads - is it breaking the rules? What happens with Mr. Smith if he gets reported?

Thanks,
< >

That's called relisting and is an offense.

Every trade you have up should be completely different to all other trades. Initially the trades will simply be closed, after that, bans may be given.

Btw. does anyone care about these reports? I have reported like 6 relisted trades and not a single one was deleted ...

This site has got over a quarter of a million users, and quite a large portion of them make completely pointless reports (people giving offers they don't like), so it does take a while to get through the backlog.

4 days since my reports and still no action taken. I assume that rules are only for the mortals and relisting is accepted :)

The smiley face there made absolutely no sense. Literally none. Read my post above for a reason, perhaps also the mods decided that it wasn't relisting in the instances that you reported and rejected the report? That's always a possibility.

Cool story bro. No relisting at all. They just have multiple same items with same craft numbers or same paints.

I have a question.
If someone posts a trade for selling a Bills hat. 2 min later closes the trade and posts a new one, does it over and over again.
What's the limit on doing this?

If someone makes a mistake and remakes the trade 2, 3 even 4 times that shouldn't be a problem. But when you make 20 "mistakes" in a row well.. you get what I mean.

Is it always the same Item ? Same ID etc ?
Because someone is buying and selling always the same Item, no wonder he/she open "same" Trade again and again...

He meant putting up a trade and closing it 2 mins later just so they can remake it and get another "free bump".
