ANTI-SUGGESTION for SteamGifts

Ditto. I'm with you on this Nonos. Dev giveaways have this system anyways, and we don't need it :D

U fell in love in a chat? lool

It should use the same system that humble bundle uses to add the game to your library.

As for impersonal, it's not like you lose the ability to use the chat.

Im not sure about the autmation stuff.. it would be convinient but unpersonal.. I like it at PB and GM, but it would not fit Steamgifts and destroy a bit of what makes this site so special.

It would be a nice option, probably better than email unless it will be the only option. Atleast if the winner will "reveal" the key then he can't mark as not received (but then again the key can be fake or used) or for example you're going somewhere and can pre-giveaway the key.

maybe as an option it'd be nice, but nothing new added should ever remove old options

I am greatly in favour of this anti-suggestion for all the reasons you mentioned. Cheers, mon ami!

I know why this idea has been launched - gifting keys that come from (Humble) bundles. But what about people actually buying games on Steam to give away? You can't enter those keys here and thus you can't giveaway the game.

I will buy a couple of Steam games later on (within 3 months) to promote my 1st game that'll go on Greenlight. If SC really wants the keys to be inserted with the giveaway, it means I can't make the promotion the way I want to...

I have met a cool guy from Norway thanks to this site :)

:3 hey Nonos , want some.....?? xD

It should be optional, why hasn't anyone thought of that?

Hmm well it does have good and bad sides to it. It would make giving away bundle keys a lot easier but it would also remove a part of the social aspect from this site too.

I would not want to it to be completely automated since I've met some really awesome people through steamgifts and I enjoy meeting new people from all around the world. So maybe it should be optional just like people have suggested for lazy people :P

I'm with you Nonos. Anything automated on this site can cause people to get lazy. Generous people should never have to deal with lazy people.

It can be an option for the giveaway maker maybe? Personally I don't have much interest in making friends through this site, I've given away several games and won a few, I don't stay in contact with any of them and I'm fine with it that way.
