If you're financially comfortable enough to afford it

Most aren’t. Welcome to the modern economy.

You get a star next to your name that apparently says you are financially comfortable. But not comfortable enough to give more then 17 games in 7 years.

How about you "moneybomb" the hell out of some giveaways and ease up asking everyone else to donate?

That would be an excellent if unoriginal gotcha if the OP wasn't already a patreon.

The site has ads. That's money bomb enough for me.

Sweetie, don't ask money from people, $3 can be really triggering, But thanks for the reminder, I will take it under consideration. Personally this is the second site I use the most often, that's not work related. More and more people use adblockers every day, online ads nowadays only make money on mobile.

According to https://www.steamgifts.com/stats/community/users umm... Arithmetic... It seems about 85% of Steamgifts members are "Level 0", i.e. never given away anything that wasn't free. :) I don't know the statistics for active users, so maybe those numbers reflect a lot of people who joined years ago and immediately forgot about the place?

Anyway, it looks like most people are here solely to get free stuff. I'm sure it's a nice idea, but asking people who really like free stuff to start paying $3 every month seems a bit optimistic...

You'd probably have to explain why people should support Steamgifts each month, since they visit a lot of other nice websites on the internet, too. Supporting each of them with cash would require a large trust fund... :)

The benefits of paying that $3 to Steamgifts seem a bit, well, sparse... I suspect adblock already takes care of the ads for most people, so you'd only be getting a little star (unless you turned it off) and some vague feeling of good will.

Umm... Aren't there supposed to be boobies or something? I can't find the boobie tier. Isn't that how patreon works?

Oh, never mind, found it. Steamgifts Patreon Boobie Tier!!

The most of the 85% level 0 users will not look into a patreon thread, they look, mostly, only in the Birthday/cakeday/celebration X threads (= free GA's)

I like such, gentleman of taste, music :o)

And probably in the "don't like bots?" thread... :)

Actually the boobie was not a lie, the song was just a bonus... :) Take a closer look... :)

Nice song, but more familiar with another version of it.

Why not just have a donate button for those that are just willing to pay once without getting any perks.
There are forums that have that to help pitch in server costs.

YES!!!
I mean, if I like a website a lot I don't mind to donate (not that I usually can without a creditcard or Paypal), but $3 a month is a lot and I don't get anything for it either (besides the star) so no thanks!

I rather look at the real CV, that's way more accurate.

Gifts Sent
86 ($496.82)

But yes, I get what you mean! It's a giveaway website so make giveaways! :P

Irrelevant to me, real CV can be from bundles!

Also for the past 2 years, my GA were group-based and unbundled or very liked games!

The earnings probably won't go away for server maintenance and CG cake.
Every year, it is converted to Steam wallet gifts and game gifts, and provided for events.
User - CG

So how is the server maintained?
Actually, this site is simulated in the head of CG.

There are not enough patrons to bring back to the real world.
In order to avoid such tragedy, you need to be a patron.

However, I was not human being, I could not become a patron.πŸ‘½
I am simply poor. Sorry.
