I'm pretty sure I saw it in the early access section briefly.

Seems there is a start to it appearing in the Early Access part of the store, but we can't view the store page. However, it still exists, and therefore would have been automatically added.
And all those people will have their giveaways deleted for using Beta keys.

One of them have 4 wins, two of them the same game. Only one of those is on their account. And that was only the first user I checked. I'm hoping for some nice bans.

you mean the alienware arena key from "Loadout Closed Beta Key Giveaway"?
From the site:
Try this new free-to-play take on the fast-paced, multiplayer shooter. Invent and customize your own outrageous weapons to carry into furious, over-the-top shooter action that distinguishes itself from other “modern combat” titles.

iirc, the retail tag on subscriptions just comes from redemption of a key, and doesn't actually reflect where an item was purchased or what state it is in. They're still in closed Beta, looking at a possible wipe of current content before they go forward, and it will remain free to play at launch. Any price tag associated with it is for additional in-game content or pay currency.

Your copy is the same as mine according to Steam (I'm using the game filter to compare shared titles) and I only have the beta.

Is it going the way of 'Ravaged' Beta key becoming Retail ?

I hope they get banned as they are getting free contributor points.... Hope we dont get punished for obeying rules as I have loads that i could exploit with but i wont

True but I just dislike exploiters, when they get away with it I get mad haha

Dota 2 and CS:GO have been temporarily allowed to be given as beta games (they were listed as exception in the FAQ, IIRC).
I doubt that the same is true for Loadout.
Also: Metro 2033 wasn't a beta, it's a full game.
And if you remember the Ubishop promotion (which also was quickly exploited), it was allowed to give 1 (one) of the games away on SG.

Try to understand what am I saying here, all I am saying is people got the CV for the completed giveaway for the games which were crackdowned later be it from free giveaways or beta.The issue itself is not up for debate.Though mods know best and I guess they are okay with the Loadout BETA GA atleast for now.
(Why did people claimed so many beta keys for Loadout, I still dont get that...)

I'm totally with you on this one. Giving away beta keys is not allowed by default, and as long as Loadout is not declared as an exception, those giveaways should be deleted.
My point was only, that Dota 2 has been explicitly allowed at some point, unlike Loadout.

either dont activate the key and tell the gifter that you didnt use it since the betas were not allowed to give away first place or activate it and have a "serves him right for ignoring the rules" mentallity.
For the moment I would just wait and see what support will do once they are on it.

Just make a support ticket. Don't post profiles. -_-
Edit: Too late.

I logged in today and baaammm.. I see Loadout giveaways? The game is still in BETA and those keys are BETA keys which are not allowed to be given away, and anyway the game is supposed to be Free To Play.
So my question is, why is it giveaway-abale? o.O
