So, i never had a Desura account, after buying my first bundle from IndieRoyale - my desura key says it's already activated, i check the profle and BOOOM! - it's mine, registred via my facebook profile. Bought a second bundle and the same. it activates automatically on that account. So the question is - how can i buy the bundle so that my key wouldnt be activated ? would buying as a gift help or will just create another desura account for that e-mail adress ?

A gift would help, until someone activates it. They do it that way, automatically activating them when a user has an account. They own Desura, after all. A friend even has a pre made Desura account by them since he never made one himself.

that's my case too. i never created it myself. so if for example i would buy it as a gift for the same e-mail that i'm registered with IndieRoyale will it help ? or should i use another e-mail address ?

For some games, the Desura key and the Steam key are the same. Did you register the games on Steam?
I don't think that creating a 2nd account on the same e-mailaddess is possible.
It might be best to login with your e-mail on IndieRoyale and break the connection of IndieRoyale with Facebook.

Tick the box that says "is this a gift?" while buying it.

that's the only reasonable method i've thought myself, though i'm afraid it will create another desura account for that e-mail address too...
