I have more than 600 games means I must buy those beggars a game?

This guy hasn't heard of Steamgifts though.

Just do what I do, never accept random invites. If you've got a trade thread up somewhere, make a note to ask people to reply to the thread first, then you'll know if its a beggar or a legit trader.

Well, that doesn't help either. I use SteamTrades quite a lot and explicitly state to not add me on Steam, with big bold letters but people are to lazy to notice. I also get some random friend request from people who randomly found an offer/comment in someone's thread and just want to trade, without even knowing what I have to offer.

Well I would still prefer not to deal with those kind of people, so I dont see the problem. Works well for me anyway.

I have an idea possibly. Why not make a spreadsheet and a post that will be updated with people who add us (anyone that has it happen to them) and beg

Its one of the groups that is for the unlucky ones. I can find a link so you can get in contact with them http://steamcommunity.com/groups/WU5

They have a link on the forums somewhere but it usually gets buried with all the activity

Actually, you can report beggard on this site. They will get banned on steamgifts (if they are already a user, othwrwise they cannot join) and possibly also steamtrades. As far as I understood.

Yes he wanted garry because he was a 12 year old kid, most of them play this game. They don't have a credit card and their parents cant afford a $10 game... Very sad indeed

pls he said he was 14.

Also, many parents don't want their children spending money on games. I'm not 18 yet so I don't have my own card to buy stuff online and so I literally have to go through friends and pay them for it.

That was funny, I used to be a beggar, then I started getting games by Giveaways and Trades, so now I can pay everyone that had given me a game.

when random people add me they usually offer to trade something i don't want for something in my inventory. it's happening more now with the trading card beta. i don't know how they find me but at least they're not asking for me to buy them stuff.

Well, talking about random people harassing you, reminds me that once an antisemitic Russian added me and told me weird things I couldn't even understand

It's something they all have in common: the inability to speak English.

Kids who add me are usually claiming they are from the same town as me - as if that would be a good reason to buy them a game, lol.

Ok, i know that begging for free games is bad, but we simply can close the chat window and block him right, why do we have to waste our time and scold him.
My point is, there is a slight chance that he may be 14 and dont know how stuff works, do we have to be that harsh?
will you do the same for the beggars on the road (or only on internet because we have internet muscles :))

if he was under 10 fair enough but my brother is 14 and he's perfectly capable of understanding how steam etc works. He'd never beg someone for a game. Let's not give this guy too much sympathy :P

People on the street being Homeless is different to a kid wanting a game. A Homeless man you can see if poor and need our money to survive whether you choose to give it is up to you but with a person on the internet they do not need it to survive. If they are bored go do some chores or failing that get one of his own mates to buy it for him.

Difference is you will die without food. But you won't die without games.

People beg for food or money to survive. Beggars beg for games out of greed and a lazy attitude towards life or even worse, a sense of self entitlement.

I am not supporting what he did, i am just saying go easy on them just as we do in real life beggars, anyway some of the beggars in my country have their own houses and income sources, but they still prefer begging opposed to work..

I've met this kind too. He kept asking me to add and add to trade for this lousy game.

Another kind is the sort that forces you to the trade window and keep telling to "TRADE", "TRADE NOW".

Jesus fuck, Valve should ban their accounts. The only kind of beggars that invite me are people begging to get in groups I am in but I remove them at 'Can u help me plz????' stage.

Once I left all the shitty public groups like Traders Guild there's barely anyone asking me for games. My advice would be to leave all the public groups you don't benefit in any kind being there.
