To many bot invites. Here is a solution I made

[Ant_Shrew]

Basically I have been trading CSGO items and have been flooded with steam bot with phishing links and the likes. I normally got between 50 - 100 invites from private or level 0 bots and manually had to block each one in the list which took time. So I decided to make a script to remove them for me by making a script. This is a basic way how to install it into a web browser:

TamperMonkey is an addon for most major browsers (Chrome firefox and safari I believe)
In short you install TamperMonkey which allows your browser add scripts to a webpage.
A lot of the scripts are cosmetic like changing facebooks main color to pink or something.

After installing TamperMonkey easiest thing to do is goto:
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/AndrewParkes/BlockAllSteamInvites/master/Blocks%20all%20steam%20invites.user.js
And it will automatically open TamperMonkey in your browser click install and it should add the script to TamperMonkey and then run the script in your web browser whenever you go onto the steam invites page on a web browser.

In Chrome on the top right of the screen there should be a black box with 2 white eye(This is TamperMonkey) if it has a red circle on it with a number that means it has scripts running on that specific webpage.
To enable or disable click on tamperMonkey and click enable or disable.
I suggest looking at online tutorials on how to use tampermonkey properly tho

Once everything is installed go to your invites page and when you have an invite from someone you will see next to ignore all button there will be 2 new buttons called "block all" that blocks all users in your fiends list and then there is a "block level "with input box which only blocks input level and lower in that list.

Currently that is all the script does. In future updates when I can I would like to add functionality to block private accounts, accounts that have vac bans and be able to block user with accounts younger than a certain age. Finally but might be very difficult would like to make it either to make sure the user has multiple non-free games or that the user has played more than a specific number of hours on the account or a mixture of all of the above to block any bot or spammer invites.

Hope that someone finds this useful.
Happy trading

Added functionality to block only private accounts and removed the block all (use block level with a higher level than the highest in your list)

Block private does not block non setup accounts so will add that functionality in soon

Will also add functionallity to block VAC and trading bans soon

This stuff should be on the steam website by default! Thanks again for sharing!

Interesting script and all (at least it's not malicious and reasonable coding), but probably not required now?

Steam has already put in place a spam bot block... all new steam accounts are limited till they have spend $5 USD and proven they are a real user. Seem 99% of the new bots have been taken out by this so far. Or spammer will be paying quite a bit out of their pocket, just to get banned moments later and have to wait / pay again.

there are still plenty of them. Dont get as many but it seems that they are using old banned accounts.

Glad you guys liked it.
have just updated it with new functionality.
