Still, I wouldn't mind this feature. Either this by going all-out with the blacklist, or remove the ability to put people on blacklist altogether.

It's like kindergarten…

What's the reason? Maybe I'm the exception because I don't blacklist one for personal reasons, only for rulebreaking / bad manners (ie cussing and swearing), and not for not agreeing with me. Yet, I've got over a hundred people on my blacklist because most of them thought that they can get away with gifting their wins away, winning multiples for games, etc. Some people make a prestige choice about blacsklisting - both putting people on their blacklist or crying about being blacklisted (while in 70-80% there's an obvious rule-breaking is the reason)
Also, in a little more silenced tone - how stupid some users are? I've seen users who started attacking one for blacklisting them (70-to-1 leechers while owning several non-bundled AAA games) because they couldn't enter for his a,: bundled junk b, level 2 limited giveaway. They were LEVEL 1. Another people are complaining about being blacklisted by someone who doesn't even make giveaways...
IMO we need blacklisting. We need a more mature approaching to it, but we need it. If a central, SG-level change could help, it would be the one to make blacklisting work to and fro.

Comment has been collapsed.

Well, it has i'ts ups and downs. That's a fact.
In my situation I heard that I was blacklisted for "rule breaking"
1'st, my noob time on SG not activating a game "fortix"
2nd re,winng a game I already won (considering I gorgot about the other enrty on a private group)
3rd, fals accused of not activatina a game which I was already playing.
You can check my profile, I'm "trying" to be a fair trader (at least with the things I have in my hands)(with still no negative votes), trying my best to gift people even when I'm not even that rich.
and I still can get on the blacklist.
I'm pretty sure that after this I'm getting on several other blacklists for "rule breaking". So since we have a blackist thingy I'd at least would like to hava change to see who blacklisted me instead of "asing every time why I'm blacklisted".

I'm not whingin about being on a backlist. I get the ones I see too on my blacklist since they already got me. So why should I give him "any chance" to be able to participate on a GA while I can't get on his/hers.

In my opinion, since we have a blackslit whitelist dilemma, we shoudl have a least a chance to see who got me on it...

Or maybe there should be thing like you should have to tell the mods "why you put someone o a blacklist" than at least people wouldn't get people on their blackslist anytime they want mostly randomly. ?

Alright, answer me this.
Why is wanting to know who blacklisted you more mature in any way?

Seems childish to me to want to know who blacklisted you. If you're blacklisted, the user has their reason to do so, even if it seems unfair to you... It's really none of the blacklisted user's business why or who blacklisted them.

Either way will seem like "kindergarten" depending on one's point of view. :P

Mature? No, not really. Fair. So far blacklist is one-sided. You exert some form of control over another person by denying him/her something without even the courtesy of informing the person that you have used some form of restriction against them. Not even dictatorships do that.

Some users blacklist you for breaking rules; some blacklist you just for thinking you've broken rules, some blacklist you because they think your ratio/profile/giveaways/avatar/name isn't good enough to their liking and in the end SG users can and will blacklist you for just about any reason they can conjure up.

Also what I noticed is that users that are very liberal with the blacklisting are mostly users with (very) high CV levels.

The superiority that stems out of your kind or reasoning is not only disturbing but it's also one of the causes that there's a very liberal (mis)(ab)use of the blacklist feature and the resulting retaliating eye for an eye kind of blacklisting on a massive scale on SG. I've seen loads; kinds of " custom rules " like you call them and most of them not only suck but they also push a lot of SG users in one kind of corner.

Those kind of stupid, infantile and megalomanic rules made by some SG users are antagonizing the whole SG community .

When I eventually will have a high CV level I really hope I won't be a d-bag like some (very) high CV levels that will conjure up petty, superioric and infantile "custom " rules to " avoid a certain public " If you want to avoid people that in your eyes are not worthy of your giveaways there are other ways...

Just because this is the discussion forum it doesn't mean you can tell people what is antagonising all of us when not all of us actually agree. At least not without some comment.

As some of the (very) high CV levels members you are using 2 different sets of scales. I posted my " opinion " to another members " opinion " wich opinion that I find antagonising and disconcenting.

I find it strange that your only posting on my post and not to the post of someone that want's to wipe the (very) liberal use of the SG blacklisting feature under the rug with words like " the more you give the demanding you get " and " being understandable they starting the use of custom rules to avoid a certain public ".

I find your use of 2 weights and 2 measures most hypocritical...

Also i didn't wright about other's users superiority i wrote about their rules: " some (very) high CV levels that will conjure up petty, superioric and infantile "custom " rules to " avoid a certain public "

I really think SG should ban custom rules al together. As I said " If you want to avoid people that in your eyes and your mind are not worthy of your giveaways there are other ways ".

The only thing that I was commenting on was you claiming to know what the whole SG community thought when you said "those kind of stupid, infantile and megalomanic rules made by some SG users are antagonizing the whole SG community".

You telling somebody what was antagonising the whole of the SG community was not you posting your 'opinion' - that was you claiming to know the opinions of the rest of us. Including me.

Mullinx never claimed to be speaking for me or the whole SG community. Mullinx simply said what would be understandable for some users given their experiences.

I would only be at fault for judging things by 'two different scales' if two people had done the same thing and I was only complaining about one them. Which was not the case. You claimed to be speaking on behalf of me and the whole SG community and the other user did not. So it was not hypocritical when I commented only on you claiming to know what the whole SG community thought.

You did appear to write about other users superiority when you said "the superiority that stems out of your kind or reasoning is not only disturbing but..." and that is what I was referencing.

I was not "High CV level" when I started objecting to people who were rude, so your assumption about it being due to my high level is incorrect. When SG switched over to the new system, I was your current level, and I blacklisted rude people.

I was also commenting about your way of expressing yourself, not on Mullinix. I can see what you mean, but I do find your way of expressing yourself to be far more insulting, treating "high CV people" like a big homogeneous group, and making blanket statements about people, and it looks like you are trying to create an air of antagonism between "low level" and "high level" people.

let's also explain it here

to avoid certain public

  • people winning, not activating those games and trading or giving them away again
  • people who doesn't mark gifts as received, so i have to "hunt" them in the forums and steam to remind them to do so
  • ungrateful users that don't even say "thank you" in the ga thread, or drop a comment on steam
  • unwelcomed behavior from some people in the forums, rude people and trolls

I'm really not sure what point you are trying to make.

I did not realise that I was 'defending my kind' in commenting on this. I did not even realise that Mullinx was 'my kind'. I have neither said that I condone or condemn comments by Mullinx - I have simply refuted your own bizarre allegations.

So you had a gift that you bought that you were trying to make a giveaway with and then after you had to close that you also had Syberia keys that you were selling in your trade thread?

you seem to take everything for granted in steamgifts. people give away games because they want to, and they have the right to pick who can have a chance at it.

think of it anyway you want. high-level elitists, people with delusions of grandeur, discriminating behavior, etc.
or maybe, just maybe.... i might be tired of regifters who can't read the rules, fake accounts that win gifts and disappear to resell them, ungrateful people that don't even bother to say thanks, homophobic/racist comments in the forum, toxic behavior, trolls, beggars.

if there wasn't a way to filter out all those individuals, i wouldn't even think of giving away stuff here.

In the end SG users can and will blacklist you for just about any reason they can conjure up.

don't forget the part that says there are ungrateful, trolling, hostile, rude users that love to regift and steal unactivated wins from this site to trade elsewhere.

You forget the rest of your post:

the more you give, the more demanding you get.
also, some have been around for a long time and/or experienced a lot of ungrateful users, it's understandable they started to use custom rules to avoid certain public.

ah, and back to the start.

let me explain exactly what i meant, so you don't start assuming stuff:

the more you give, the more demanding you get.

i started in this site from the bottom like any other user. after giving away more than 100 games, i started to experience issues. some examples:

  • people winning, not activating those games and trading or giving them away again
  • people who doesn't mark gifts as received, so i have to "hunt" them in the forums and steam to remind them to do so
  • ungrateful users that don't even say "thank you" in the ga thread, or drop a comment on steam
  • unwelcomed behavior from some people in the forums, rude people and trolls

also, some have been around for a long time and/or experienced a lot of ungrateful users, it's understandable they started to use custom rules to avoid certain public.

this expands what i said above.

so, in short, instead of letting everyone join my GAs which would give me a headache instead of satisfaction, i can blacklist unwanted users who doesn't deserve my kindness/games/time.

is that so hard to understand and accept?

Should people not be able to choose who they give games to?

I normally blacklist people I encounter behaving in a rude or hostile manner in discussions, I wouldn't want these users to win one of my giveaways.

"...and in the end SG users can and will blacklist you for just about any reason they can conjure up."

This is exactly what I'm talking about. I mean, don't get me wrong, I think it's a neat and useful feature, I just think it gets abused way too much. Okay, nobody can really judge who deserves it and who doesnt, but some of the reasons people get blacklisted are just plain absurd.

Can't we just make blacklists bi-directional? So people will know on whos blackilst they are and in the same time they will think twice before overusing this function?
yeah i'm talking about this too much, probably on few more blacklists because of that xD

You mean this isn't the case already? Jeez, you gotta do is click on every username in Users and any of those that have giveaways and if it says you are blacklisted, well then... there you go.

That's how I got my blacklist up to max!

My blacklist is not at max and most of this was sarcastic.

I think is 2000, not sure really
it may be that or 1000 either way I think there's people that have reached the limit too

There were people that were dissatisfied with the 1000 entries limit because their blacklist for SGv1 already had more entries than that.

They have limit of 1000 entries each.

I have no idea, but I think a LV2 requirement should be enough.

I've had a level 5 regifter winner. Maybe not as rampant as in the lower levels, but apparently rule-breaking exists on every level.

the only thing you do with lv requirement GAs is filtering out more % of rule-breakers, since less people will be able to win and (MOST) legit users are in higher levels.
there's always the drawback of leaving outside some good people that can't climb up to the next level or users that just joined SG...

Yes, this is my problem with low level giveaways. Sometimes I make a giveaway with no restriction - and it ends up rerolled 3 times with regifters, then at the end a level 1 wins it who gave away 2 game while won 60, for example. I think if next time I'll want to do something like that, I'll look out for one of the dedicated groups.

In which case it means if everyone would blacklist each one, everyone on sg would be blaclisted, right?

Actually, this feature has already been implemented since the beginning of SGv2, but not many users know about it. Follow these steps:

  1. Open the "Users" tab on the lower right corner of the page.
  2. Open the first user profile you see.
  3. If the user has any previous public, group, or whitelist giveaways, try to open the giveaway page.
  4. If you are blacklisted, there will be a specific warning that you cannot enter the giveaway because you are blacklisted
  5. If you are blacklisted, go back to the user page and blacklist them in return.
  6. Go back to the "Users" page and open the second user profile you see.
  7. Repeat until you run out of users on the first page; then go to the second page of "Users" and go to the next page.
  8. Stop when your blacklist-filling need is satisfied, or your blacklist is full.

Ah, too bad you can't just eliminate the level zeros from that list, it would shorten the list by 90%+

Number of entries was removed from profiles with the big site update presumably because of the minor amount of grief it caused amongst the community occasionally. If you really want to make blacklists totally publicly available, good luck. There's no way something that would cause that much strife would be implemented.

I'd rather not know who blacklisted me, plus you find out eventually who has... It would just cause fights, even with people finding out it causes grief :(
