How did you use the links included in the previous thread ("Things I learned....Off-Topic subjects")?
Now, I have so many threads to procrastinate with... Interesting statistics!

I'm still pissed because people don't love beer ç_ç

I saw this thread first, don't recall ever seeing any of those threads before. It's a shame I haven't paid more attention, these results are fascinating.
"58% would like to have an option to limit giveaways only to people who have the game on their wishlist."
I'm surprised this number isn't higher! I've been hoping this would be possible for a really long time.

For those (like me) who haven't had a chance to read all the posts in the two reflink-related threads created by steffke, and then couldn't find them anymore, here they are:
https://www.steamgifts.com/discussion/Q2Ad1/just-some-ranting
https://www.steamgifts.com/discussion/IXtv7/since-everyone-is-fine-with-it
steffke, if for whatever reason you don't want me to link to these threads, let me know and I'll delete this post.
Posted here only because the OP promised controversy and didn't really deliver... :-)

It took me a second to figure everything out, but I appreciate it! Thank you! Happy Cake Day! Thank you as well for the poll info. It was interesting to learn how people have responded.

73% think it's acceptable to give away Steam keys from Humble and play the DRM-free copy.
I contacted Humble support about this, and they explicitly said this was okay.
On the other hand, they explicitly said that you can't trade Humble Gift links, unless it is for another Humble Gift.

That's very interesting. I wonder what's the rationale in allowing this? In effect it means that two different people can legally play the game when only one actually purchased the license. I doubt the developers and publishers would be fine with this.
As for trades, did they say anything about trading keys from bundles for other keys?

Yes, I was surprised about the DRM-free thing, and I've seen posts from SG support/mods/something about how wrong this is, but the fact is that Humble allows it and the belief is that the devs decide if a DRM-free copy is available...so they should be going into it with their eyes open.
You definitely can't trade keys...you can't even give them away (see their FAQ under "Can I sell or give away my keys?" You can only give away gifts...and can only trade them for other Humble gifts. I kept the email dialog I had with the support rep.
After I learned this, I removed all of the Humble games I have from my trade page...because I don't want to have to require (and enforce) Humble gifts only.

Part I is here and covers off-topic subjects. I really should have kept that thread, which is more lighthearted, for my Cake Day, but it's too late for this now. So here's Part II. Most of the polls listed here are about SteamGifts, with a few exceptions that are not totally off topic. I'll sandwich the more controversial polls between less offensive ones to make things easier to consume ;-)
Ok, enough with the pleasantries...
That wasn't so bad, was it?
A poll is also included with this thread and is related to your experience with links in Part I of the thread (the one about Off Topic subjects). Please vote truthfully :-)
Enjoy!
