PSA: Steamgifts beta key giveaways from developers...

There could be clearer warnings on steam itself, but they probably can't be bothered with it.

thx ;)

Steam gifts should implement a rules for developer and distributor that all games being given away should stayed in a user account and not beta keys. where it will expired afterward.

Well Support should know that, but maybe not everyone remembers.

Bump. Thanks for letting us know.

Are you the James bond who gives free gifts in shape of sexy grills to everyone?

Thanx for the PSA.
I have something for you to read as Reward

Why don't SG just remove these old beta key giveaways from profiles?

ETA: As I understand it, dev giveaways are/were often in large quantities so they shouldn't be too hard to track down.

Well said

Thanks for the thread!

People should just stop calling out in general. It's against the rules and there's a reason for it. Also, the whole thing about stalking other people's profiles and blacklisting for every single little offense they can find is ridiculous in the first place.
If you have a freaking problem with someone, report and move on. That's all there is to it. The admins are the only ones with enough power to obtain proof and make final decisions. I've seen so many people start their own little witch hunts when people SEEM to break rules. Well guess what? It's your job to detect suspicious activity and report it, but it's not your job to judge. We have support for that.

I thought I read somewhere that it is against the rules to create giveaways with beta keys.

We can add special tags to giveaways on SGv2 (in case of Alpha, Beta, etc), so I marked the Tryst giveaway and a handful of other developer giveaways with a beta tag so they're more clear.

well...if the game was listed as normal game and was given beta key that wouldn't have been nice, but this one have a huge ass BETA mentioned in title
l.e:nevermind cg posted before that it was added recently

I did not know that beta games could get removed from the account! Good to know.

Lol I remember being suspended for like a week? maybe a few days I forget. It was a couple of years ago, but some silly person did the same to me, suspended me because of a guns of icarus online beta. (#=
