Change to free games and SG.

Though this may sound like a stupid suggestion I still believe its a good idea.
Though free games are removed to not exploit the SG system I still believe that having them gone off the SG giveaway list for good is a bit too much, I think instead it should be readded long after there were free codes, so for instance Afterfall Insanity, went free early December 2014, and was removed then, I think that in December 2015 the game should be readded to the SG system.
Though its mostly unlikely it will be changed it still would be nice to have it thought about because removing a game for good for being free once is a bit much.

Do you believe that free games should be available to be given away long after its free (A year after or something)

So I am against it.

In that case, exploiters would get as many keys as possible and wait until the game gets re-added to the GA list.

Let me just save this key code for a while so I can give it away on SteamGifts next week/month/year.

You haven't been around when Dota 2 gifts were allowed.

Still, I recall at least one case of a free game being readded to the giveaway list eventually (Metro 2033), but later it was given for free again...
