Hey there. Not sure why that guy got so angry at him being on your Blacklist.

While I get bummed out being on it, I tend to just ask them politely why I was there and thank them for letting me know. I even had someone on my Whitelist put me on their Blacklist (due to not making enough public giveaways lately, which I can totally understand why he'd feel that way)!

He totally went about it the wrong way if he ever hoped to be taken off it. And I'm sure he got a lot more because of that exchange. Not from me, however, as I dislike the Blacklist and don't use it. I like using the Whitelist feature, however, and consider yourself added to it! :)

Thanks, did the same for you. To be honest, I was considering letting him off after a bit: I do a check with every winner to either blacklist, whitelist or leave them alone. Some ratios just aren't cool. But after seeing him blow up, I decided otherwise. I can understand why you wouldn't use the blacklist, I just started cause people with bad ratios kept winning mine and I wanted some people with good ratios to win :P
On another note, that was the first time someone blew up because I blacklisted them :/ Was kinda weird

I agree. In the grand scheme of things, being on a person's blacklist is not very high up there as far as worries are concerned. I tend to be thankful for the whitelists that I am on (and my ratio for that is far better than my giveaway ratio! LOL! 520 to 28). I figure most of them are due to my ratio.

I used to do a lot more public giveaways, and then Valve in their infinite "wisdom" did away with the ability to keep games in the Inventory. My only option is Steam Wallet funds, as I don't have PayPal or credit cards. I do make a couple of nice giveaways twice a year if I can. I am hoping to make a couple of nice whitelist giveaways during the Summer Sale.

Hopefully I can find a way to get some keys in the future so I can start making public giveaways again!

Thank you for adding me to your whitelist. I appreciate it very much!:) Have a great day!:)

There is a point where ratios don't matter too much when you've given away a ton :) I also consider the amount given (3000 won to 800 given that aren't like dev games or some free stuff is fine) But I usually use it with a low ratio and also a low amount period :P Have a nice day too

That is a very good point. :)

Did anything new get added to that "conversation"? I can't recall what giveaway it was in. LOL!

Oh! Did you win any games in the train? Alas, I did not win anything, but it was still fun!
