That's fine, but why do people view me as a phisher simply for having my comments "for friends only"? That's literally all I have on right now, but it still seems like I get blocked. *Confused*

Im sry but it someone adds me with a private bp gets a block from me . I dont think theres any real reason y someone would want a private bp unless they wat to hide something .

Yes, like a friendlist.

Also, I just checked my settings and apparently I only limited comment permissions so far. Makes me wonder why people block me.

A lot of people dont accept random adds from users with private profiles. Its because of the phser bots that add users and message them with psh links. If you do want to give offers on items id suggest leaving a comment on the users trade saying youre adding them / what you are offering.

On a side note users with private profiles will be banned on the site, giving people even more reason to block you.

I did that. I put "added" message under his trade before adding him. It's not first that happened though. I don't really want to have my profile for everyone to see because I had people add my friends to their list and harass them/spam phish links.

Also isn't that a bit silly to ban someone for that? I would think that this option is there to be used. But it seems like it's not worth it.

Hi, I'd like to let you guys know that it's a bit weird to get blocked right away for simply trying to add someone on steam. I assume I'm getting blocked massively because my profile is private? I'm not a scammer and I think it's a bit unfair to jump to these kind of conclusions without me doing anything.
Please reconsider blocking people until you actually talk to them.
