Captcha on the TradeOffers Page

[Igor Dot Ninja]

Hi everyone i have been using steamcommunity, steam-user, steam-totp and steam-tradeoffer-manager for my bot (it is a card trading bot)

 

This morning i opened to check if the bot missed some of the trades on the trade offers page and i got a captcha there saying that im requesting the trade offer page a lot of times.

my bot is set to check for trades each 45 seconds, and confirms each 45 seconds, and after that it does a 5 minute check up (just in case it missed some of the trades) 
 

did anyone had similar issues?

Sorry!

There have been a lot of requests to your trade offers page. This may be caused by browser extensions accessing your trade offers too frequently.

 

To continue to your trade offers page, please enter the code below:

 

 

I did the captcha and increased the bot times (slowed it down) , and after 5 minutes the same thing appeared, im using enhanced steam and steam inventory helper. but that thing appeared when i opened the browser.

 

So did anyone had similar problems? should i be worried. 

I shut it down for a while

steam-tradeoffer-manager does not request that page. Consequently, it cannot trigger that CAPTCHA.

 

Steam Inventory Helper does, in fact, request that page. Quite frequently, I believe. In fact, I believe SIH to be the reason why Valve added the CAPTCHA in the first place.

ok man tnx, i guessed its one of the two. Tnx for making the stuff

 

yeah steam inventory helper also works when the browser is not active (runs in the background to watch for trade offers and other stuff) but i got paranoid and switched it off for a while.
