I do plenty of forum listed privates for events. Do you consider that a problem?

I always did public ga, but now I like the idea of invite only ga more. You can dodge bots/scripts this way while sharing your games with the users of the forum.

The last thing I want is to blacklist people here. Besides, the rules I apply to my GAs are not pointless. Check my last public one to see what I mean. :)
But yea, seeing that I am blacklisted for no apparent reason makes me revengeful too. :D

This. Ever since blackilisting became a click away everybody blacklists everybody.

I only blacklist people that intentionally break the rules or are really rude on the forum/in the comments section.
But I'm thinking about implementing the rules you use for your public giveaways in my public giveaways as well. I find the "thanks" bots really annoying.

I find it really hard to care what other people do what their blacklists. There are no rules saying that blacklisting has to be for a specific reason, a good reason, or any reason at all. But I do think that "He never wants to give me a game again" is a reasonable reason to put someone on your own "I never want to give this person a game again" list. After all, if you're not willing to share with them, why should they be willing to share with you?
And honestly, it sounds like their blacklisting may have had the desired effect on you, since you went to the trouble of posting a topic just to claim that you don't care about their crappy giveaways anyway. There's this story about a fox and some grapes that comes to mind...

I don't care what effect they desired to give me. All I do is laugh at them and their pointless attitude. :)
I didn't open this topic to whine. I wanted to make an invite-only GA and needed a topic for it since I have no time to make a good puzzle now. This came to mind.

I honestly do not care what you do, or how you maintain these colored lists we have.
I do like it if there are certain rules for entering a giveaway (within reason and within the rules).
That those giveaway rules be followed by those entering. But it is whatever, some just never do.

i dropped making public giveaways long ago, but i don't have any friends either. your point is not valid. .-.

that I see people who I blacklisted for ignoring my GA rules are blacklisting me back.
Why is it funny?
Because I wouldn't join their GAs anyway, they're all group or invite-only. This or they only make GAs for awful bundle games they wouldn't play anyway.
I also consider it so rude and selfish when you go around entering public GAs but you only make private ones. Yea, keep raising your CV by giving away to your friends so that you can leech CV-restricted public GAs.

Let me attempt to calm you down. The keyword is zoI32.
Are you one of these people? :O
EDIT: I mean the people who blacklisted me because I did that first (because they broke my GA rules). Not anyone who makes private GAs, that would be silly of me. :D
