DIG changed there payment system not that long ago and the new system wanted my address/phone number etc unless I pay with bitcoin. I thought well I'm not doing either of those two things...
Then a few weeks later they seem to have disappeared from Steam gifts. Shame several games there now I'd probably buy but no way to give those seller any money.

If you're referring to their thread, it was closed by site moderators due to being an advertisement thread (which is against site rules).

Yeah cheers, noticed the site is still very much active but I suppose it felt like the site was gaining a bit of momentum then a few changes its no longer a site I'll use anymore or even see much comment about. I'll wonder if I'll even know if they change their payment system back to something I'll use.

The fug you talking about? DIG is still up and around, they moved away from bundles to individual games--but they're still selling shitty games.

Hell.. if they stopped taking bitcoin, that just means they're LESS shady.

The thread closure was just a nearsighted mod's internal struggle differentiating the rationale behind banning self-promotion from the utility provided by a direct line of communication with a store that was particularly relevant to the site and its users. Cognitive dissonance can be a real bitch for the "BEEP-BEEP DOES NOT COMPUTE BEEP-BOOP" crowd.

The site is still there though. Nothing "happened" to it as far as I know.

Yeah just the changes and lake of way to give feedback mean I may never use the site again which is a shame as I thought it has improved lots in the last 6-12 months.

My only problems are trivial ones like the new payment system can't "topup" points under $5 anymore unless you use bitcoin. Was nice when I could throw a quick $0.50 at it for that lone key that pops up.

Also, it appears they are moving away from bundles which is a shame but that's just my personal problem. I can't get enough bundle sites (collector loser here!) so losing one is always a bummer.

Bit of a collector myself... After DIG changed their payment system I thought well maybe its time to stop... Still signed up for the annual humble monthly, still check for bundles a few times each week. But, more picky now than last year.
