All it really did was have a look at who entered without commenting and give you a list

No, I just liked checking to see who didn't bother saying anything in the smaller ones, and sometimes I'll check to see if the winner said anyway.

It's easy to add a comment function to a script/bot...

Why does it matter to you? I personally laugh every time I see "Thanks for the chance".
If I win something I just thank the person then, I think it's more personal that way. :)
Comment has been collapsed.
Same, its not like it does matter if you say thanks in the comments of the GA anyway. Atleast not if there are already +20 comments, I doubt the creator would read them all. I rather thank him when I won or on his topic about the GA or when the person personally links me to the GA.

/shrug I read every comment in every giveaway. I'm weird like that.
And my comments usually mirror the complexity for the givers comment. They say something short, I say something short. They ask me to describe my favorite meal, I'll describe it in vivid detail. They ask to cuddle, I demand they nibble my ear. You know, the normal comments.
Comment has been collapsed.
Same here! And if they don't write anything in the description I just comment on what about the game I like that makes me want to play it
Comment has been collapsed.
I've said why it matters to me in the very post this is chained from. You might not care about it, but doesn't mean others don't.
Comment has been collapsed.
Some people enter so many that it's a pain to enter thanks on everyone. But I always make sure to try to find a way to thank the person if I win.
Comment has been collapsed.
that's tricky, luckily i had a fluffy dog gif for you :3

uuh, did i miss something? everyone has to comment on every giveaway? D:
Comment has been collapsed.
No,but it just makes you feel better when you say it :D (thanks) etc etc...

No. I'm not going to require it, I sure don't. Smaller giveaways though, I prefer it, and I also like to see if the winner said anything.
Comment has been collapsed.
I'd rather use it as a check if people read the description if I have something meaningful to address. Didn't read -> didn't post what was required.
Comment has been collapsed.
So everyone who enter without commenting is a leecher now? I see, times changing so definitions aswell. Let's spam eachother with 1000 comments in each giveaway now
Comment has been collapsed.
If you are going to go and respond to a nearly year old comment, at least read the whole damn thing. Only two comments lower was this.

I also didn't name the addon, I simply used it. It had one button. Guess what it said.

Well, since you didn't use the time this topic was already around to find the answer, I'll give you a clue. Its the text in the title written in capital letters.

I need to know where you take your gif, it's for science.

i'm used to that website and i actually don't hate most brazilians, indeed i insta hate anyone from my own country (portugal) because they insta-say "HEY you have allot of csgo stickers and weapons there", we speak the same language as the brazilians and in my opinion this comes from portuguese people (portugal is a small country but i get more beggers from portugal then from brazil that is huge)
anyway i still don't know what to say about japan :D
Comment has been collapsed.
I don't hate them but sometimes they are annoying mostly because when they find out we speak spanish they begin to laugh and then they all start fighting, on both sides and I kind of hate that
Comment has been collapsed.
i once played csgo in a casual match with allot of portuguese and spanish people

I thought leechers were those who didn't donate anything and just wanted free stuff. That would be the level 0 people, not those who don't comment.
Comment has been collapsed.
No, you got it all wrong. Only those who post 'THX BRAH' are really doing it right. All others are leechers.
Comment has been collapsed.
Agreed. I never bothered to comment when I entered giveaways, just a ''Thanks!'' feels pretty dull.
Comment has been collapsed.
The bit in the title was just the only bit of text I remember from it. It didn't display anything else.
Comment has been collapsed.
I prefer the real thanks when i deliver the game or DLC, and i prefer to thanks on steam chat or by email when i win a game... I used to thank on every giveaway and i found my self copy-pasting the same comment and i felt pretty bad so i just dont comment now...
Comment has been collapsed.
Oh, I prefer it there, that doesn't mean I don't want to check the giveaway though. And its nice for the small ones.
Comment has been collapsed.
pretty much this ^
it's better than those soulless copy pasted thanks
Comment has been collapsed.
Same... unless there's a question in giveaway then I'll leave a comment.
Comment has been collapsed.
I hope they'll port that 'filter thanks comments' script. Now that was actually useful.
Comment has been collapsed.
Did some "fixes" on the fly not sure it's bug free though.
I also made those usernames clickable
Comment has been collapsed.
nice. thanks
didn't finish my version yet, and no need anymore :)
Comment has been collapsed.
been using it and found a bug:
$('.comment__username', $data).each( should be $('.comments .comment__username', $data).each( , otherwise your username is added to commenters list and obviously excluded from leechers even if didn't comment. even if it was intended to be like this, i like to see if i already commented too.
Comment has been collapsed.
Great! I haven't been using this since at least 10 months now :P
It was your script after all ;)
Comment has been collapsed.
I found it too, thought you coded it because you wrote "your version" but you probably just altered it then too :)
Comment has been collapsed.
i found the original and added few things to sgv1 script. when sgv2 went online, script obviously didn't work anymore. started to rewrite it but you released this and i didn't need to rewrite that first one as this suits me pretty well :)
Comment has been collapsed.
Why would any one like tons of copypasta 'Ty's and 'thanks!'s ? I don't like doing that, rather just comment if the disruption asks so.
Comment has been collapsed.
I have something that blocks those. I just want to see if they comment (and check to see if they were lazy or not)
Comment has been collapsed.
seriously Delta, even without this, your blacklist is huge already, can you manually put all of those name in your list ?
Comment has been collapsed.
perhaps a script that puts everybody on blacklist and then manualy remove those 2 guys that you dont want to blaclist :)
Comment has been collapsed.
I prefer not to comment, the odds of winning are slim already. As stated earlier, saying thanks before possibly winning makes no sense. After winning something would be the optimal time to say thanks.
Comment has been collapsed.
What exactly is the point of the script? To exclude and blacklist users who opt to not post useless and frivolous, insincere comments on a giveaway? That's rather abusive and deplorable for you to do, not to mention fails to understand the concept of "leeching."
You people are pathetic.
Refer to my thread about this issue: http://www.steamgifts.com/discussion/Yno8L/giveaway-comments-pointless-or-praiseworthy

Says the one with 144 comments during a year in SG...

Says the one with 16.265 comments during three years on SteamGifts.
I mean, how is this relevant? If he had commented much more than that, he wouldn't hold the opinion he does, would he?
Comment has been collapsed.
Wow you have even less comments than he does in 2 years. Well my objection is with him saying:
You people are pathetic
Comment has been collapsed.
Fair enough.
And of course; how often do you see a giveaway where you can actually contribute something meaningful? I can count them on one hand.
Comment has been collapsed.
I've seen lots of giveaways with the potential for interesting dialogue. Unfortunately, there was no easy way to check for responses in giveaways, short of going back to each of those giveaways. I was really excited for how SG V2 does replies (includes responses in giveaways), but that feature from Beta isn't live yet.
Comment has been collapsed.
I only say anything after I have won, in person if possible, and if not, I'll visit your Steam Profile and thank you there. Occasionally I may be inclined to also thank you on the giveaway, after it has ended already.
Also, everything Nokkenbuer said. Really, I should use him (?) as my stand-in. :P
Comment has been collapsed.
I'd like the opposite; a script that searches who said "Thanks" and makes a list, rather than me having to manually parse it.
Comment has been collapsed.
DeltaBladeX, I respect you as a prominent Steamgifts member and a generous giveaway creator.
However with all due respect (don't get me wrong) but I think you're a bit overreacting here, wouldn't it be better to focus your precious time and energy on something more useful than policing "thanks" comments and creating huge blacklists? I'm starting to suspect that you might have a problem. A giveaway is not really a giveaway but a transaction if you expect something in return (whatever it might be).
Anyway I just need to let you know that I usually do not comment on giveaways (except private/group giveaways) and I do not require users to do it on my giveaways, however I too appreciate some kind/funny/interesting words. Please feel free to add me to your blacklist If you wish, and I am truly sorry if I offended you.
Comment has been collapsed.
well, i am no fan of those "thanks" spamming.
instead of spamming thanks into everything you enter rather do:
- thank the giver, when you win something.
- give someting back from time to time
- participate in forum discussions
Comment has been collapsed.
I totally agree.
I VERY rarely thank for the giveaways that already have a huge list of people saying thank you.
I do, on the other hand, make sure to say thank you if I see that there are very few thank you's and a lot of people.
I just feel bad seeing 2 thank you's and over 100 entries.
Thank you is best said in person when receiving a gift. I prefer to hear it in chat or via email (whichever way I'm delivering the gift), but I don't expect it. It's nice when it happens but not obligatory :)
Comment has been collapsed.
I agree with you. I rarely thank for GA, but always thank when I win something.
Just say something when I entry one giveaway if there are something interesting in description, so, I can participate in discussion.
And I like to be polite and wish more wins and fun, for who receive a gift from me. ☺
Comment has been collapsed.
Since SGv2 came online I entered a ton of giveaways without leaving a comment.
I also gifted 4 games today.
Am I a leecher?
Comment has been collapsed.
No, you are a user of the site who follows the rules
Comment has been collapsed.
Whats the point of saying thanks before the giveaway is over? "Thanks for thinking about giving away this game, because you haven't done it yet."?
Comment has been collapsed.
You don't need to comment to enter a giveaway stop being such a buzzkill

It was this one btw:

and then probably made by this user here or uploaded by him, dunno

Is there a script to find real leechers, regardless of comments? For example users with 0 giveaways and 50 or more wins?
Comment has been collapsed.
It's very ugly when you make a group giveaway with 10 entries more or less and nobody says anything.
Comment has been collapsed.
Um, what do you want people to say? Do you write a description/comment yourself? Do you ask questions?
I'm the kind of a person who doesn't like to bother people so I never comment on anything unless the GA creator explicitly asks something / tells it's alright to comment. I'm the same way IRL, I feel... uncomfortable striking a conversation out of the blue, so online I really try to skip the anxiety of trying to come up with something to say. :D
(I, however, do send a thank you comment if I win a GA. That's just good manners. Unless the GA creator asked for no thanks/no comments. Then read above.)
Comment has been collapsed.
I think that, at least, the winner should say something. Maybe no "thanks" but why not "received correctly" or "just activated". Some feedback. I mean, you just won a game... If the creator says no comment anything, is just education
Comment has been collapsed.
Anyone remember the 'FIND THOSE LEECHERS' user script? I can't even remember where it came from, but I already miss it after making one giveaway. :P
