[Hi Im Swat]

So...do what it says.

EDIT: *Stares at something*

Oh, I see what's happening.


EDIT 2: Ah, there we go. It's gone and replaced with the famous "?".

Using the trade URL to initiate trades is fine; these are MEANT to be given to other people.

The trading bots from the 3rd party skin sites don't know how to detect name change cooldowns. They aren't programmed for that.

:nkCool:

Also, the trade reversal function opens up new forms of confidence scams.

And where do you think that trade URL of OPs is being used?

On another website?

The point being, as long as these websites use the trade-URL rather than wanting access to your account, where do YOU think the problem is?

Back when they didn't have the inventory loading issue, I've used the Steam Trade Matcher a lot. That's a third party site too. I also use lorenzostanco, which is a 3rd party site that gives me a ton of filters on the library. All this stuff is using the APIs that are MEANT for other people to use, so there is NO risk.

The only software that actually accesses my account "properly" is my own...

Any third party sites that has API access to your account, can do things to your account that you don't want.

Use of third party sites involved with trading are a violation of Steam's ToS for use of Steam items anyway.
