Hi everyone.
Few hours ago my level decreased from 5.65 to 4.80. I understand the mechanics of getting games No value status but that is some big portion was taken from my level. Can i do something about it or should i just forget it because there is not much i can do?

If you gift stuffl like The Cruel kings and it was full cv at first and then it drops to 0 cv, you will drop majorly.
95% sure it worked as intended and there is just nothing you can do about it.

Yeah, i know that games i gave away were not great at all but that stuff hits like a truck when you least expect it. I was just going to get level 6 in a next month or so and SG just does this to me
That shit is just depressing

There are many games abused, not just by gifters but also devs asking ridiculous prices and (finally) it's taken care off, even i myself while mostly just gave bundled games dropped about 0.15 but on level 9 it's still much, sadly it happens.
You have to ask yourself did you really paid a bunch of money for these type of games or where they cheap.

Now imagine how depressing it is when people reach higher levels by exclusively gifting cheap junk, as you did.

Well there are worse that actually gift and level gifting games that were free, i am sure, a lot of people often use reseller sites to get something a bit cheaper once a while.

I joined this site explicitly to give away keys I had left over from bundles so they wouldn't just be wasted. Gaining levels is a bonus.

Expect it won't be the last time.

Sometimes certain games like from Daedalic Entertainment the bundle price drops briefly and then ones cv also drops temporarily.
Can't really see much games from your profile as a reason to such cv drop, many have been bundled normally.

I got to lvl 5 before i started giving away cheap games. I dont remember doing it before that. The actual reason behind this - im from Russia. I cant buy bundles now so the only way to give away something is to do it just for my region or buy cheap crap. If it was just few tens of a level i wouldn't mind it but i actually got dropped to a 4.80 which is really strange

10 copies of it, that's $200 CV right there. That alone is almost enough to get you to level 5.
