well, i think that its logic that when you contribute, you get a higher max of P's

this way people that contribute ALOT can join alot of giveaways and those people that dont contribute at all and are just here to win stuff for free, wouldnt be able to join much giveaways

The only people that run out of points are the people who enter giveaways they don't even want. I rarely drop below 200 points

Id assume that people who can't buy a game they have been waiting for for a while now would enjoy it more.

Anyone entering for The Darkness II would have more than depleted their 300-point maximum these last couple days.

There are games that constantly pop up on SG, multiple times a day even. It's not too hard to burn right through your points when you want to win one of these.

If they contribute a lot... then they don't really need the points, since they can buy the games they want for themselves :P

well you have like 20 euros contributed, what if you would get 400 more points? or 200? its not mine to decide

and non contributers would get less points

Those aren't points i would get, those are points that i could get potentially. I tend to stay below the limit anyway :P

Why would someone give alot away on SteamGifts? :s

On a more serious note: Contributors can enter contributor giveaways. No need for increasing the point cap and being greedy, 300p is more than enough. Also, what would the contributor's cap be? Please, PLEASE, before "suggesting", think it through.

No, I think point generation is good as it is right now. Don't really need to enter every single giveaway there is.

I'm against this as it will encourage despicable users to create fake private giveaways to boost their contribution value.

Playing fair is the last thing the user who chooses to abuse the contribution system cares about. The mods and legitimate users will not be able to catch them all. There will always be more than a few that will slip under the radar.

I'm pretty sure my maximum points could drop to 100 and I'd never run out so... at the rate points regenerate I don't see much value in this

Oh dear, can't believe nobody's said this yet - what on earth would you need more than a maximum of 300 points for to enter?! If you're sitting at 300 points already it means that you're not entering any giveaways, presumably because you're not interested in any. Raising the maximum number of points wouldn't change that.

if you read the other comments, you would read that this is just an idea, it can be liked, or disliked.

Ya, but without intending to cause any offense, your idea isn't very well thought through. Conversely, if you had very few points (I'm only sitting on 16 points at the moment) an increase to the maximum is also of no benefit because you're not getting anywhere near close to it. As for the other comments, several of them are nothing more than "+1"s which very clearly also haven't been appropriately thought through. Not trying to sound harsh or anything, just saying.

thats true, but some days only games that you dont like pop up, and thus you get to your max.

Bump your points into 2+ weeks giveaways, problem solved.

I really think the points should be lowered, so people would only enter for games they really want to play.

i agree , each 10€ contribution raises max points to 310 , so you make 15$ game giveaway , you get +10 points max , next time you give a 5 $ game you will have + 320 max points

Yep, vital for all those 320 point giveaways you're entering. Oh wait...

If you raise up points for contributors, you'll have more fake private giveaway, free games giveaway (Starvoid,...).

Remember that Men Of War Vietnam was free to and gave people $35 contribution.

Unless literally fewer than two people entered those free game giveaways, the contributor value for the maker of the giveaway would still be upped, though.

The more contributions affect what a person can enter, the less giving away is about generosity. Contributor giveaways are more than enough.

For what?

If contributors get more points he start joining into giveaways for games what not want. I every day using max. 100 point. I dont know what u people want. All games? ...

The absurdity of the effects of thousands people logging in everyday and able too enter everything reduces everyones chance by...thousands. So lets stop trying too reduce everyones chance of winning.
