If you're asking for an option to automatically send keys when the GA ends, I am all for it.

Exactly, a checkbox option. Some of us want to check winner's legitimacy, some don't. I often do, but not always.
Comment has been collapsed.
Sure. As long as old rule infractions, like non activations and multiple wins lead to automatic re-rolls.
Comment has been collapsed.
why people talking about multiple wins? thats not possible! after winning you cant enter the same game ga again!
real question: why is that still a thing after 5 years of impossibility?!?
Comment has been collapsed.
Old multiple wins from before. Some with multiple wins made an effort to get them rectified (convincing one of the giveaways' creators to delete the giveaway). Some never tried anything to set their accounts straight.
Comment has been collapsed.
But that means you are limited to 5040 accounts ....

Oh. I see a problem, thought suggestion is to send gifts faster, but it is about automatically reedem them to account? Thought winning on level 0 is way too rare to actually become time consuming.

They are talking about sending, but looking at their created history ...

everyone in real life i tell about SG is not interested in winning games (they buy what they wanna play)
once i had someone who forgot his humble membership for over a year and had many good keys - he registered and created GAs - i met him a week later and told him: you have to send the keys too. he was surprised and already blacklisted by ppl. he clicked send and never came back to sg.

This is the same energy when on a level 2 giveaway a level 3 (now freshly level 4) user told me:
Running giveaways with higher levels encourages users to do giveaways to increase their level. Please prioritize who contributes to the growth of the site and community."
They have 41-209 for their stat over 9 years, with 3 giveaways in the past almost 4 years, all locked to the SA region.
Which would be okay I guess, people do whatever.
But the audacity, asking for higher (I guess level 3, their level) requrements on my giveaways, while preaching about the contributors was a flashbang-level of audacity.

Edit: If you want to be done with the Internet for today, have a look at OPs comment section on his Steam profile.

holy hell o_o wtf is that tho? some heavy drug use, mental illness..? I guess we will never know.

Great find :)
1200+ comments written on his own profile? That's damn impressive!

They're also in 8 groups where they're the only member. There's more random nonsense comments in the 9 groups they're in.

Welp, time to play Moonlighter and forget the things I've read tonight.

WTF? I'm so confused, it's like trying to parse the ramblings of a madman. I think this guy might be legit insane, like the kind of mental illness that requires that someone keeps an eye on them so they don't randomly off themselves.

Thanks! I am done with the Internet for today.
Also, OP is currently banned on SG for a month.

Only has 5 unactivated wins and 2 multiple wins, lol.

I've never seen a profile comment section used as a personal blog before.

i am not black list you for being a "bot" but because you failed to giveaway your games

What you're describing is a candy vending machine. That's not what this site is.
Comment has been collapsed.
That's exactly what this site is....
Some people work for the vending machine company, but even they tend to pluck a piece of candy from the supply from time to time.
Comment has been collapsed.
Except the people putting candy in the machine are not a company. They're individuals who have spent money for things that they are now giving away to strangers. So yeah no, not at all a vending machine.
Comment has been collapsed.
You get points to spend on the vending machines. You get more points if you contribute. The points are kind of like a currency.
Comment has been collapsed.
Except you don't get more points if you contribute.
You get access to a few more vending machines (and if you check out the number of giveaways over level 3 these days, it's not exactly a bounty). And still those vending machines are filled by people.
So really no it's not.
Comment has been collapsed.
Most wins come from group giveaways, that's where things really shine here, especially the puzzle giveaways.
Comment has been collapsed.
I don't know about most because I'm pretty sure 90% of gibs are public but you're right, the odds are better in group giveaways, provided you are participating in the group. Still doesn't make a vending machine though.
Comment has been collapsed.
And still those vending machines are filled, mostly, by
peopleautojoiners, multiaccounters and other cheaters.
I needed to correct your sentence ;)
Ps.: The most autojoiner reports from our group members are still, after more then a year, unhandled.

Bots and autojoiners don't fill the machines much in my experience. They get the candy but they don't put much back.
Comment has been collapsed.
You are correct and i am much too sleepy.
Wanted to change the filled to emptied too.
Comment has been collapsed.
Heh I know how you feel, brother. Been on quite a few forums with an empty tank after a bad night. Fingers start typing on their own.

Hi guys! I have seen his profile has been suspended. But why, exactly? I know that it has a very bad rate, considering what has done in 9 years on SG, but it isn't the only profile with this score here. Has it been suspended because he insulted someone or what? And why right now after 7 years of inactivity? Just curious :P
Comment has been collapsed.
I guess it's because https://www.sgtools.info/nonactivated/BOGDANISTHEBENECILD and https://www.sgtools.info/multiple/BOGDANISTHEBENECILD hadn't been handled yet.
Comment has been collapsed.
Yep, you are right. Probably this is the reason, actually. I didn't remember sgtools had this function. Thanks for showing me this :)
Comment has been collapsed.
You're welcome :)
Yes, you should always check your winner(s). Always. And if you see a rule violation, please send a ticket to support. Thank you.
Comment has been collapsed.
Someone pointed 5 inactivated wins, maybe that was reason. With inactive level 0 it takes some time to check as you mostly cross them if they win your giveaway and just a peak of gifters check winners if they are claiming wins on that account.
Comment has been collapsed.
I agree. I confess I have never checked wether the winner had already won the same game before. I think, from now on, I will do it. Thanks for pointing it out :)

This general apathy of SG users allows cg to postpone any decisive action against the worst offenders indefinitely and bad actors to thrive.
Comment has been collapsed.
I understand. Every time that I make a giveaway or look at the discussions page, I learn new things about SG.
Comment has been collapsed.
He's also autocommenting on every GA now with the message I copied here, which, in itself, apparently isn't enough proof of autojoiners for mods (according to some distorted views, this must be making the site look like it's lively or something, idk man). But maybe they caught that too.
Comment has been collapsed.
Let's say that the mods are spoiled for choice to suspend it :)
Comment has been collapsed.
Nah, dont waste your school days playing video games lottery or potentially finding ways to exploit that. Do the lottery part when you can afford to. Maybe this suspension is a blessing in disguise!?

With 0 giveaways created in 9 years, a system to automatically trade doesn't seem to benefit you much
Comment has been collapsed.
I know this may be an old and answered topic but there is nowhere I can go except here to voice my issue. I love this platform and have been a member for almost a decade although I've taken a break for a few years. I have surely won my fair share of games here and they have cheered me up when I felt down... I want this application to be more available to people who do not have a lot of time to join giveaways. In my experience it was very difficult to sometimes contact gift receivers or manage the gift and trade as well as timing of it. I hope that it is not a lot at all to ask you to build in a method to automatically trade and hold items to winners instead of having to do it manually.
