After a few minutes, it stopped appearing and hasn't appeared again since.

To follow up on my previous post about the red warning, I examined the element and it's called "toast error". It's got a nested div called "toast-progress" which rapidly decrements and then the warning vanishes.

Thanks for the tip, but are you sure it's filtering on the number symbol? I get a lot of results which don't have # in the notes section at all.

Is there a way to search for non-specific craft numbers?

For example, if I wanted to see what craft number Team Captains were on the market. Not caring if it's a #20, or #1300, or anywhere inbetween.

I tried putting in an asterisk ("*") but that's apparently ignored and treated as a non-numerical search.

[Edit] I forgot about backpack.tf's prem search. I can use that instead, but if there is a trick to doing it on outpost, that would be helpful. :)

Thanks for the info, that's what I was looking for!

Heyas, quick question. From the faq:

Note the underlined. Does this mean a blocked user can still post offers on your trades, but that you simply don't see them?

Or does it mean they can not post on your trades at all?

Forum search was unhelpful as it only returned results about blocking phishers.

Thanks

I've been wondering how people are posting new trades, too. The steam API has been "invalid" constantly since the update.

This includes a flood of CAPS and different colors in the trade, threats about blocking/reporting people, or items that have been listed for a long time with lots of ignored/hidden offers.

I don't threaten to block/report people if they add me (and I wouldn't do that), but I definitely have two lines of "DO NOT ADD" in all caps with colours in every single trade I do. Why? Because I've had a ton of random adds trying to scam me in the past, so I have to tightly control who gets on my friends list.

That does not and should not put me in the same category as the rude traders the OP is talking about. :P

I block a lot of those guys, too. There are a lot of people out there who could have easily made a sale if they didn't drive me off with their jerkass behaviour.
