Wut?

He means stop fucking post keys from bundles, its both against bundle makers them selfs and Steamgifts.com

Speaking of which...

I contacted the Be Mine support yesterday, asking if there's any way to buy a gift bundle and not send it immediately to someone else. They said the bundle is tied to the e-mail, so the best I could do was create a new e-mail, buy the bundle for it, and then give the e-mail. They were okay however with the idea that I gift the Steam keys. Since that's not allowed here, I will gift them some other way, probably on my Facebook page (and later, in any case).

You're right Raiden. But on the other hand... If you have already one or more games included in the bundle (happend to me twice)... Are you going to waste those keys instead giving them away?
Either way... It's very unfair if you're offering the keys while the bundle is still on!

Speaking of...

I offer you a key to open the chest to obtain another key which unlocks a room which gives you a key to open as many crates chest door as you want. all for a bacon shitting ponies.

I think that this rule should be revised. You should be able to prove that you have a copy of the game sitting in your Steam inventory if you want to gift these games.

Actually, I got an idea.

Make an additional field for the giver to specify when creating a giveaway: Is the giveaway a Steam inventory gift (whether tradeable or nontradeable), or is it a key?

If it is a key, it does not add to the points.

Now, we won't know for sure whether it is a key or an inventory item until it actually gets gifted. The recipient should be required to report whether it was a key or an inventory item. If an inventory item was promised but a key was delivered, the incident will be investigated, and the giver may be banned.

well i dun have many friends that play indie games >_<
and those that do, have the bundles themselves
now i found a couple of keys left from bundles i brought, but not the complete bundle.
and i thought i'd give them away.
i dont see where the problem is to create giveaways for them =/

if its just a matter of not beein sure whether the giveaway creator rly owns the key, since u cant see keys in steaminventories, that would just be a lame excuse. since i've seen a lot of ppl creatin giveaways, that have their profile on private an when u watch their inventories, u seem them empty. well whatever =/

I don't see what the problem is with giving out certain keys from a bundle. I actually got some extra keys leftover after having given some to those in my list. I was gonna post them on steam gifts.com but if it's against the rules I guess I'll just give it to random people in Steam groups I belong to. Steam gifts is reminding me of a homeless person I bumped into after coming out of a restaurant. Said homeless person asked me for money so that she could buy food. I offered her an untouched wrapped sandwich and she turned it down saying it wasn't her kind of sandwich. :/

We experienced a total of 57 Gish giveaways in under 3 hours. It generates a ton of points, gives users feedback credit for games we don't allow, and we want members that win to have full access to the bundle they won. This is the ensure they are entitled to anything else added to the bundle. Like what happened when SpaceChem was added. There are a lot of factors weighing in on the decision to only allow complete bundles, so the decision was made and it has since been enforced.

Please note this wasn't an easy decision, and it wasn't a moderator only decision. The community also demanded change because of the massive amount of Humble spam. Previously, we were experiencing 100 giveaways per hour.
