Losing CV all the time

It's been discussed to death.

as the value of the games u gifted in the steam shop drops so does your CV - nothing u can do u about it really cuz whole system is build on this

I am truly sorry for your loss.

Don't worry, that happens when you get older, luckily they have pills for that. Make sure you consult your doctor.

And here comes the "maybe we should delete the CV" comments. To be honest, since more and more games are being bundled, it will become obsolete by itself, imo.

Oh no, your ePenis is shrinking? D:

Thanks for donating your CV for science. Next time try searching for it.

You know what's pathetic? Your whining.

Yeah this is stupid. That's why i almost don't do giveaways anymore.

What is CV ?

I'm confused, also fairly new here.

why do you even care?
if you are giving away games for a contribution value, you are doing it for a wrong reason ;)

AC III -10, Fable III -30 -> -40 $ only. Not that this is important, though.

What is pathetic is people whining about CV.

This site is calle SteamGIFTS because people give GIFTS so others can enjoy them. This isn't freaking SteamwhohasthehighestCV .

It is a big deal, because lots of people here make contributor giveaways and if someone loses CV how can he/she enter those giveaways ? Most good/non-bundle games are in high-contributor giveaways.

What is kind of pathetic is that you don't realize that the CV system is set up that way intentionally to reward continued giving, as opposed to one time "investments".

Did the other CV thread even close yet?

Do not giveaway new games - only oldies - that's the main SG rule lol

As you may have noticed by now, giving things solely for the CV is an endless treadmill. No matter how many 90% off non-bundle things you give away, you'll never reach the finish line. And the traders or Russian guys will always get better deals anyway. :)

If you're trying to scrape together enough CV for a chance at some big giveaway, why not just buy the game directly? Better odds that way too. :)

There was me thinking people did game giveaways for the fuzzy feeling. :P

The system requires you to continue to be a contributor if you wish to continue receiving the benefits that come with being a contributor. Working as intended and I agree with it 100%.

i already had 2 1000$ Milestones, the 3rd one is almost there.

more chanche to celebrate, i like that system :D
