looks like its true - i still have some foil cards of this game, and there's no "Sell" button :D

many games were removed from store for, among other causes, fake reviews and fraudulent micro-transactions. since the developers get 10% from any card sold, those cards are banned from the market as well.

Well that was totally unexpected after massive giveaways.
But shouldn't there be a official statement...or something?

about DH? yes, it was well known, there was a lot of noise (and a lot of cheering also) in the forums here when it happened.

I meant the market ban - beacuse it's now the owners of leftover cards that got...ehm. :D
I am otherwise familiar of DH story and it puts shining joy in my darkest moments.... (I am not the only one, right?)

In another case there was a statement about community items expiring after a certain time. Don't really know about this particular one.

oh, that was more recent. I heard through some BR groups on facebook, but it was annouced by Steam on their group a little time ago

here, looks like tha annoucenment happened on each game's community hub, like this:

btw, I can't tell for sure because I don't remember exactly but since DH was banned from Steam, I think that all of their cards got banned as well.

So, Forsaken Uprising cards are being... forsaken? :-?

I'm guessing their mass giveaways for game keys will finally stop now.

Just checked some other DH cards, looks like some of their sets are still marketable. Here's to hoping the rest get yanked soon.

That sucks, there goes my retirement funds.
I have now like 666 unmarketable cards.
Following games also, non digital homicide:
Last Survivor
Lemurzin
ZombieRush

Looks like Base Square 49 got nuked, too, and it's not just cards that are being nuked. Backgrounds and emotes associated with affected games have also been market disabled.

I've mentioned this in another thread, but Valve are just hurting the customers by removing the cards from the Market entirely. What they should do is make it so the cards are still available for buying and selling (as well as emoticons and backgrounds), but remove the Developers from getting their cut!

They likely can't. Unless the developer signed the rights to the artwork on the trading cards over to Valve, Valve can't use the cards in a manner not authorized by the developer. Theoretically Valve could probably remove the artwork from the cards in question and be entirely in the clear, but this current level of moderation is already well beyond what we expect of Valve. :P
Besides, Valve probably doesn't want to have to explain to consumers why those trading cards are no longer generating backgrounds or emoticons, and likewise, that'd presumably handicap the appeal of their trading card sales as well. This may not be the most consumer-friendly approach, but from Valve's vantage, it's probably the most efficient.

Darn. That's a shame. :(
I just wanted to be able to craft all the Badges and get the smilies and backgrounds that I still needed. I have the 15 day trade hold, so trading is pretty much useless to me.

You can still craft boosters for the delisted games using gems, so not all hope is lost.

as long as this only affects shady game devs trying to game the system, i dont really mind it

If anybody finds any more games that have had their market rights for cards stripped, feel free to drop a note here: http://steamcommunity.com/groups/card-trading-card-trades/discussions/1/133255957994868314/
I figure having a central list of affected games could be of use.

Sharf as well ... It's a pity because it's backgrounds and emoticons were really nice.

They should still be tradeable and the keys are cheap enough where plenty of peeps have farmed it for cards/own it. Might be worth checking the SCE bot and others like it to complete the set.

S I just noticed that I got a card in my inventory that I cannot sell... anyone know what's with that? Are other DH games to follow?
TIP: If you want to get rid of your cards, exchange them via trade bots for marketable/wanted ones
Fun fact: ppl are still blacklisting me.

Are you looking for a giveaway too?
