warning for trading w/ my irl friend??

[Nebvla]

this is the trade trades/viewtrade.php?id=104060655&userid=992693&signature=qlmMzGXW2aPMWCKgbBOazQ

They are my irl friend, they live in the same neighborhood as me, and use my computer a lot since they come over all the time :v

I traded 2 eggs for their 2 eggs and it said "STOP STOP STOP! YOU WILL GET BANNED FOR HAVING MULTIPLE ACCOUNTS!"

I'm confused and now scared-

is there anything wrong with this trade???

Hi, I'm not a mod. But maybe in your trading rules or profile, you could say, "Hey mods, [insert name] is my irl friend and we do a lot of unfair trades! Please do not ban us!" You can also send a message to the mods before giving any big gifts or trades to someone. ^^ I Hope this helped!

The algorithm will flag unfair trades and mods will look at it. This trade is fair, so you're fine.

The only reason you got this message is because the same IP address logged into 2 accounts (you and your friend's).

According to the CS rules,
"You may play on the same IP address or device as other people with no consequences as long as you obey the rules. There is no need to publicly identify these accounts by naming others who play with you in your profile or trade rules."

it wasn't unfair though-
it was two event tokens for two event tokens
if it was a ton of items for nothing then it would be understandable but it wasn't :v

Staff have actually commented and said that this is not effective, as anyone can type this out and still be cheating. They don't actually look at this.

Also if you have a real concern, send in a help ticket to staff. However, as long as your trades are fair and not outrageous, you have nothing to worry about! As Pearlflower mentioned, before any big trades or unfair trades, send in a help ticket to staff to double check with them just in case.
