Enable free games GA without increase giver CV/LVL.

Closed

Hi, i'm Chazan!

Today i came across with a situation that if you stalk me a little, you'll get what i'm talking about.

I know you are thinking about the load on the server AND the responsibility, but there's two points that must be watched:
1 - People can scam creating a large number of free GAs;
2 - The free games gets revoked with no reason after a while.

1 - ScamFree: Only people with LVL higher than 5 can create it and it would be limited and... maybe... analyzed by an admin? hehe... sorry admin.
2 - As it's totally a will free intention and it will not count even for the giver or winner, i think it would be great that it doesn't punish if some unfortunately thing happens.

Why?
You know and i don't need to mention that there's a lot of freebies that were given only few times, doesn't even reached many people and now they can't be given because bots or 'smart' ones. Using the SteamGifts server will make that those keys reach someone that will make use of it.

Dumping it is very easy for the dropper, but it's waste of time for who is seeking for that game, you know why, and SteamGifts "bingo" hahaha... sorry again... Is a great tool to distribute it honestly!

Hey, thanks for reading, love you all! ♥

Ha been suggested dozen of times , its being worked on as we speak ...

Allowing Giveaways for Previously Free Games

I've seen this suggestion show up a few times in the discussions section, and it's one I'd like to implement. As you know, when a game is free, we typically pull it from our game list. This means if a developer briefly distributes their game for free, or if a user gives away thousands of keys on another site, the corresponding game can no longer be given away on SteamGifts. At the moment, it's unfortunate for users that miss those opportunities, since our site does not provide them with a second chance to obtain a copy of the game. We also receive quite a few tickets from users with previously free games, that simply want to find them a home. I'd like to change the way we look at those games in the future, and allow users to give them away with a highly reduced CV, or no CV. I think it'll provide users with more flexibility in terms of what they give away, and it'll provide everyone with a chance to win some great games we've unfortunately removed from our game list.
