In real life the storage is limited though, on steam you've got unlimited storage for crap.

I don't really think that's a suitable analogy because stuff in an apartment or storage room takes up physical space of which there is a finite amount, whereas an entry in your library of digital games is essentially of no consequence.

there are children starving who could've played those games

Sad thing is that is actually true for some kids(who mostly lives in slums and goes to cheap internet cafe's for few hours of gaming after getting daily wages) in some South Asian countries :|

There's really not much of a point of getting rid of it either in my opinion, there's really no downfall on having a bigger library, at least with more you will have an e-peen and maybe you will eventually be on one of those days were you just want to roulette a game from your library or just play bad games, like a bad movie night.

You can still have junk and still have it in order.

Unless one has the games downloaded and installed then I don't see that it really makes a difference. And even if one did then they could just uninstall them. If it's an issue of 'I don't really want to see this stuff in my library' for whatever reason, then I have to wonder whether it would have been faster and easier to just hide them as opposed to going through the process of having them removed. I mean it's your library to do whatever you want with of course, and no offense, but it does seem a little bit OCD. In a way that's like removing the cigarette lighter in your automobile to lower its weight in order to make it more fuel efficient. It's inconsequential.

I just use categories to sort everything, "broken", "crap", "completed", "early access/WIP(work in progress)", there is always the long shot they may fix a game and make it better but more importantly your less likely to do an accidental re-buy during the sale seasons, to re-activate if you get it again in a bundle, or do an accidental re-buy if they just change the current equivalent of the box art.
also there is a badge associated with the number of games in your library.

That makes little sense. If you just want to declutter your library hiding them is essentially the same as removing them.
Edit: After reading a few other comments and seeing others have reacted similarly as I did I feel like I should say I'm sorry about my redundant comment. Sorry for cluttering up your comment section.

No I just wanted to apologize for posting a redundant comment, which I realized after reading a few of the other comments. I guess I got a bit overly curious about an, in my eyes, odd solution. The apology i sincere but I'm sorry if it came across as passive aggressive.

Except for the fact that its a free storage room with infinite space and no further restrictions.
And comes with a nice organized list so you don't have to search through it if you're looking for something specific since you can immediately go to the thing you're looking for.

sometimes I think about doing the same, did it take long?

Good to know that they actually remove them if you ask for it. Ubisoft will kick in your door and take you hostage at your own home rather than remove a single title from your library.

I tried to get them to remove some inventory items from a game I never play, it was free to play and i installed it, and about an hour later decided I didn't like it. They won't get rid of those inventory items, and they're not tradable or marketable. So I have a whole tab in my inventory that's useless and annoying.

Can you buy the game, farm all the cards and then remove it from a library just to buy it again and farm more cards ?!
Comment has been collapsed.
No, play time and achievements, and all assorted statistics permanently remain associated with the user account. This is how you can have reviews made for games you apparently don't even own.

Oddly enough, I can answer that!
I had Defence Grid 2 that I bought from a key seller (who claimed it was a Kickstarter key!) it got revoked after I had played it enough to get all but 1 card. I reacquired Defence Grid 2 and it showed I had 1 drop remaining. Then the key was revoked before I even had a chance to play it.... So I still don't have Defence Grid 2.... wait that wasn't the important part of the story! Steam remembers that you previously acquired the cards and doesn't let you get more. Mind you buying, having them remove it (not return it) and rebuying it would be a very expensive way to farm cards anyway!

Good job!
I recently got rid of a lot of crap I had lying in my room. I'm almost done with it. Some 200Kg of stuff that hasn't even been looked at for 10 years.
Now that I got used to have my room almost empty (by comparison) I'll do a second round. :D

What if one of these garbage games gets an update and suddenly becomes the best game ever made!? Does that mean you have to buy it again?
Comment has been collapsed.
Yes! Crapygamo get the SuperAwesomeDeluxeSpectacularRemasterHDDefinitiveExtreme update. You don't own the game. You have to buy it again so you can see all the lens flares they added!
Comment has been collapsed.
Exactly my point. The only thing worse than buying a crappy game, is buying a crappy game twice!
Comment has been collapsed.
What about buying it Thrice? After realizing that that patch only added lens flares and having it removed again, they release the paid Ultra Fantasticototalynotascama engine overhaul that fixes all the user complaints while adding a whole host of new ones?

it should have been 201, you forgot to remove bad rats.

guys, can you remove flatout 2?

And then when you complain, you'll receive an e-mail like this!
To purchase gifts on Steam, simply indicate your purchase is a gift during checkout. You'll be prompted to enter your friend's email address or select a Steam Friend to send your gift to. For more information about Steam gifts, please see <this guide>.
This should solve your problem with gifting a game. Please remember to close your ticket if your problem is resolved.
I speak from general experience, unfortunately:
None of the replies I ever got from support ever made a lick of contextual sense..

Farm cards, put them in "crap" category and forget them forever :)

I was thinking about the exact same thing. Gratz for bravely stepping up!

What if some of them you won from Steamgift, so that's mean now you break the rules (didn't active winning) ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

wow, you are the opposite of addict. it's like the other side of sober:
Knurd
Consider the following scale:
- Being drunk is to be intoxicated by alcohol to such an extent as to be unable to perceive the world clearly through the senses.
- Being sober is to be able to perceive the world clearly through the senses, yet humans are quite capable of giving themselves illusions and little stories to make life more bearable.
- Being knurd is to be (un)intoxicated with Klatchian Coffee to such an extent that all such comfort stories are stripped away from the mind.
This makes you see the world in a way 'nobody ever should', in all its harsh reality

Ah, I wonder if you could take that a step forward and have them just delete your account? Good way to get rid of a gaming addiction. AND SG ADDICTION WHILE WERE AT IT!
Congrats on stepping up to the plate though! What happens if later you decide to change you're mind and really want to play one of those games. Could you make another support ticket to reverse the removal? :)
Comment has been collapsed.
At this point, I'll literally add anything I don't have to my library. I know I won't play most of it, but I always keep getting more. I played around 5 hours of Steam games in the last two weeks (disregarding idling) but added 35 new games to my account. :P
Comment has been collapsed.
I have avoided activating games I don't think I will like for that same reason. Hard enough for me to sort through games I do want to play I don't need titles I know I wont play.

AHAHAHAH finally, i can gift uncrowded to you again :p

Plot Twist: He actually found it and 9999 other copies crowding his gift inventory, and the contrary message that was sending was driving him mad, so he sent it out to 1000 people.
Or was that a random person with a <developer> tag here on SG?
That seems pretty par.
