I whitelisted two people for posting on a lot of those giveaways to let everyone know it's free and to tell the creator they need to delete it.

I'm not taking sides in this, just curious to see what the SG community thinks about it. :)

I've been here a long time, given a lot away and won a lot, too, but I don't get to have discussions with you guys as much as I'd like. <3

Hah. Someone blacklisted me for posting this discussion. OK, then. :)

It was pretty inevitable tbh

Yeah, it's fine. I'm not that worried about it. It's probably someone with like a .1 ratio that gives away one game a year or something. :)

First rule for not getting blacklisted: Don't talk about blacklists.

Ah, that reminds me I need to open my whitelist and add some more people. I try not to put TOO many people on it but right now I have like 170.

170's not bad... Ideally I'd want to keep it under 200, but the problem is once I add someone it's really hard for me to remove them, so it's likely to just keep going up until it reaches infinity or the limit

Oh, whoops, I mis-remembered. I have 138 on my list. Yeah, I need to add some more.

I don't use my blacklist so no, I haven't gone on a spree.

Nothing against people who do use them though :)

Yeah, I pretty rarely use mine. I think I've really only used it for people who were like scumbags/scammers in the discussions and people I've caught re-gifting their wins and refusing to just redeem it themselves. Mine's a pretty short list.

I never blacklist anyone.

I always imagine those that encourage others to blacklist users en masse like this:

I'm not picking sides, but I've heard people discussing it before when there was another huge giveaway spree of a couple of games that started being completely free. I wanted to see how SG feels about it now.

I didn't. I posted the poll to see if anyone did, though.

I check random entries in my giveaways and people in certain kinds of topics (that turn into a beg fest after stuff is over). I once had a giveaway where 20% of the checked users had been guilty of unactivated wins, regifted wins, etc. :(

Yeah, that sucks. That's one of the rare cases where I blacklist someone. People that resell or regift their wins shouldn't win my giveaways. :(

I am always amazed how many of those creating GAs for free gmes have a bag full of broken rules on their profile. Ranging from the usual to a shady look that screams secondary account...

Yeah, or just people that only come here to leech and never give. :)
