I don't know if this is discussed or explained somewhere, and if it is i'm sorry, please let me know.

But with this system in SteamGifts, I can have 300p in a couple of hours. This ability makes no need for this point thing at all.

So, wouldn't it be better if points are given for example 1% of the price instead of 5% ? So people would tend to spend points only for the games they really want.

The only time I accrue 300 points in a couple hours is right when a new bundle hits.

They should make like a damn coal mine for op to work in, maybe through hard labor he'll appreciate free points more.

IMO the cap should be lowered to 250 and the generation reduced to 3%, but I'm not the one in charge.

I Don't know which website you're using, but i've NEVER EVER had 300 points in a couple of hours, the only thing i have noticed (and actually like since it keeps the forums/site alive that during big sales points tend to accumulate faster, but still it would take at least 10 hours

It's fine. It always goes through spurts when new deals come out or a bundle opens.

you dont have to spent them. A lot of users spent at least half of their time on SG with 300 reached and without spenting them.

I dont spend them. This is my first login after opening this topic. The thing is, points have lost their meanings.

The system is fine. When there is a new bundle or new deals, you will find on what to spend your points.

Also you are not forced into using all of them, you can still enter giveaways of games you really want.

I think he point generation rate is good as it is. It has been higher (I think 10% of the giveaway's value or something like that) but it has been reduced already. If you spend your points wisely, you can enter all the giveaways you want and not waste any point. And even if they are going to waste, that's nothing too horrible. Points are generated constantly, you'll never run out of them.

That's what I'm talking about: I think points are generated too generously, so people use them on games they dont really want and lower others' chances.

Meh, I never have enough points once there is surge of game I really want. Too many points for you? Don't spend them, simple.

what about people who check the site once a week? they'd only get 300 points.
max capacity of points isnt really an issue cause some people will browse the site enough to spend them all before getting max

no you can't have 300p in two hours...

I spend all of my points before I go to sleep , then when I get online in like 10 hours I'm at ~200p
