I was searching for a plugin that would block a players trade request to someone when he was muted or gagged for an amount of minutes, permanently muted/gagged, or just a temporary gag/mute. It would block the user from making trades with EVERYONE, not just the admins. The gag/muting system that I'm using for extended mutes/gags, permanent gags, or just temporary gags is SourceComms.

I hope this isn't too much to ask for, since my admins accept permamuted/permagagged people's trade requests and actually let them talk to them. for example, threatening to hack their account...

Anyway, I hope this isn't too much to ask for.

Thank you for reading my thread

Not possible. Trade requests are handled entirely client-side through Steam.

So you can't make it so it does disable the person's serverside request on tf2? It seems so possible to block the request on the server

There is no such thing as a server-side trade request. They are handled by the clients, and by Steam, 100%. The server is never even informed that a trade request is sent. The server is never even informed that a trade is in progress. The server is completely unrelated to the entire process. The only thing that servers are even made aware of are the items that were traded to any player on the server, AFTER the trade is already done.

Now, if you're talking about this plugin, then yes, it would be possible to remove a gagged player from the list of players on that plugin's menu. However, that doesn't stop them from just pressing Esc, clicking Items, clicking Trading, and sending a request that way.

Report the player if they send trades and talk about hacking accounts - you can access their profile and use the little pull down menu up top right that says MORE... then Report Violation. Valve/Steam has a way to see what they type from a trade request window and so on.

Was TF2 handling the trades at one point? I recall a plugin that kicked players if a trade was accepted.

Yes, I already read his original post. I used the word 'was' not 'are' but nice try.
Since he wasn't referring to the past it's not relevant.

I was recalling this plugin's misleading description.
