I created a Giveaways (Bastion) and it disappears like two hours after. Does this append often ?

Bastion is currently sold as a part of a bundle and as such is not allowed to be offered as a giveaway.

This is probably why. I thought it only applied to keys obtained from bundles though, so if you bought Bastion individually not in a bundle it was OK to submit it. No?

Users may not submit individual gift from any bundle. This includes either keys for activating the entire bundle, parts of the bundle, or individual keys or giftable items/games. Please do not submit games from bundles while they are on sale to avoid confusion. These giveaways are subject to immediate removal. Members may only submit unused, giftable links of the bundle. Accounts that habitually violate this policy may be suspended until further notice.

atm it's a part of the bundle, so no matter if it's a giftable copy, it's not allowed

So once it's not on sale in a bundle, separate Bastion keys (not from a bundle) are OK then? Not that I have any ATM, just asking.

There's no need for notifications if you read the rules.

FAQ in French. Slightly out of date, unfortunately, but the relevant rules are there.

Not everyone knows if something is available in a bundle.
They can send a message/notification if your giveaway is deleted right?
It's not his fault.

If it was a Steam gift of Bastion instead of the one he got in the bundle, then it wouldn't have been deleted.

How would they know, though?

Wouldn't a Steam gift be in your inventory and viewable there, while a bundle key would be elsewhere?

You can buy a steam key on other stores and gift it.

Private profiles? Any rules against creating a giveaway first and buying a game as a gift later? But anyway, what he said: "Please do not submit games from bundles while they are on sale to avoid confusion."
