steamgifts and gmg welcome pack games

Closed

Hi
I see on giveways list people create gw with games from Welcome Pack GMG.

Kung-Fu Strike + Master Level DLC (Steam)

Gun Monkeys (Steam)
The Journey Down: Chapter One (Steam)
Nosgoth: Veteran Pack (Steam)

I have this pack, use few keys but i don't need Nosgoth VP and Kung-Fu + DLC.
Can i create giveaways with this games from welcome pack?
On main site people still do this i see.

I prefer to ask to be sure. I think somewhere in the rules steamgifts wrote that the free games from bundles and other such actions are prohibited to distribute in steamgifts.

Do welcome pack GMG does not belong to such an action? Because I think he could.

Games bought in bundles aren't "free". The rules prohibit you from making giveaways for "exploited" games, meaning games that were given away as - for example - part of a large scale Facebook giveaways, where people can harvest keys by using fake FB accounts.

GMG Welcome Pack is free with a code, noone pays anything even a 1$ like bundle games.

This action is NOT in bundle category since anyone can get those games for themselves for free -> So Exploit for CV...

I was merely countering what he said about "free games from bundles" and elaborating with an explanation of the rule. I didn't know about this GMG promo, so didn't comment on it.

Yeah. Make it in the forum.
Make a giveaway for something that's being given for free somewhere else at the moment is a no-no.
Or you can wait until they're no longer given for free. Do they expire?

I hate when players giveaway already free games. Because they get CV,and some of them(like Sanctum)are just look like either normal or GMG key. Thats what creates the confusion.

I think you can techinically but I for one consider it distasteful (I gave those keys away in a thread)
