The new Steam Trade/Market Holds went live!

yeah cool.
they are making people use unoffical 3rd party applications due this pure laziness. Why are they making this when they are visibly discriminating users without smartphones or with Windows p.

we: confirming after selling 5 cent items is a joke -_-
volvo: but but. in special case the hackers will fraud the way it too
we: but we.......
volvo: nah i don't care :v

I don't love this update, but there's no need to be salty about it. It further protects your inventory at the cost of being slightly less convenient to trade. Unless of course you don't have a smartphone (but then again everyone has a smartphone).

Ugh this confirmation thing is stupid, we should be able to confirm all of the listings at once :@

I dont care about this update or about you. Just delete steam if you dont like it.

the fact that Valve is trying so hard to "care" about its community is disturbing.

WTF i had to confirm on mobile each card i had put on sale at 0.06 cents!!! This is absurd... FU valve

i cant see your problem..
the mobile auth. exists for months now and the linked steam article is written in december.
so why are you "crying" now?

This is utter bullshit. Confirm every market listing? It's almost less annoying to use the market without the mobile app.

How many drama posts are there about that topic is kinda silly .

Its a security measure , and it is working in the right direction , at least imo , so that there is that additional step of security , even if you fuck up and comrpomise your account in some way .

Its taking less then 10 sec to confirm a trade / listing ... so complaining about it is kinda stupid .

I Guess adding an option for NO protection would be a thing , where you just op out of Any form of protection , and sell / trade your stuff freely ...
But without any option for help from steam support if you get scammed in any way shape or form .
Other then that , it just seem like an unnecessary drama to me tbh

Good, the less people complain about getting their accounts hacked, the better.

I absolutely belief that 2FA benefits the community in the long rung. People are too cavelier with their security, and too quick to whine and complain when they face the consequences. I've got it on every account that uses it - Facebook, Google, my bank, etc. People complaining about this who have the ability to use mobile authentication are just being unreasonable.

That being said, I do realize that not everyone has Android or an iPhone. they really need to use the OTP standard to allow for the use of things like authy and Google authenticator. It's every bit as secure, and there's sufficient apps on every platform anyone would hope to use, including PCs themselves.

O wooooow i didnt realize this or they just ninjad this patch ... butttttt u need to w8 15 days for a trade to finish!!! not only for market listing lmao ....

omg this is the most retarder update ever.
I've got about 450 cards in my inventory and i have to mobile auth EVERY 450 card?! even when you mass auth it takes about 2-3 sec each. Most cards are worthless so I'd never sell those now cause it's not worth spending time to do this

I understand forcing to use mobile auth and so on to make it safer, but auth every card?! it's beyond my imagination

Wow.... my interpretation of this was that you couldn't trade something bought immediately from steam or the community market for 15 days. Not I couldn't trade one 5¢ card I've had in my inventory for a month for 15 days. This is absolutely ridiculous. There is no way the trade market will stay alive

it's absurd. there are many ppl who don'ìt have a smartphone..so why steam penalize me?i'm with steam from the day 1...never had and never gave a issue..but now i'm really pissed off..sry bad english

I have a question for people who trade a lot:

• I'm doing a trade with someone from a trading site.
• I have mobile auth, he has 4 days to go for it to be on for 7 days.
• The trade involves him sending me csgo keys, me sending him 1 dota 2 item via gift (cannot be traded).
• Once I accept his trade offer to me (the keys), currently they will be locked for 15 days correct?
• Can he revoke the trade and take back his keys?
• I'll basically lose my item (since I gift it to him), and I have to wait for 15days to get the keys.

Is this trade safe or not? Or can he revoke the trade and take back his keys?

Here i am confirming every single cards that i want to sell.

Friendly reminder that both SteamDesktopAuthenticator and WinAuth support auto-accepting of steam confirmations.

And if you're not into any of those, my ASF has !2faok and AcceptConfirmationsPeriod as well, specially for people who don't want anything else to handle that (I like to have everything I need in my one app). And yes, you can import your classic 2FA authenticator and accept in both places.

And if you're using neither, then it's probably not that big issue for you, so keep accepting :3.
