So then, how can we help increase odds of winning for the average joe?

How? You make hundreds of giveaways monthly specifically for the average joe. Definitely will increase their odds.

I like how people think that if private and group giveaways didn't exist, those giveaways would just automatically become public giveaways, when the fact of the matter is that most of them just wouldn't ever exist in the first place. Brilliant.

Of course they would not become public, like you said they would not exist :P. He was asking how he can help the average joe, a guy who does not have multiple gift groups, massive CV, etc behind him.. "an average SG user" i took it.. then i looked at his profile.. well it was obvious to me how he can help... Hence the post.

So a proper answer wouldn't have been "stop making private and group giveaways", but make more public giveaways...

Maybe have group giveaways for 100+ entries ,no less .I think some people are screwing the system

Nope, those cases almost never involve more than two or three entries.

How exactly is that screwing the system? You're asking to ruin communities so you can somehow, have better odds of winning. Some of these groups are about more than just free games.

I'm sure he's just another jealous, misguided soul who believes this. No worries. It helps a lot when you come to the realization that most of the people around here who say and do kind of assholey things say and do them mostly because they don't even understand 90-95% or more of how the site works.

LIES! XD

But no, serious, you profile say you winned aroudn 20 giveaways, and some are great AA games.

It's not that hard to win, I'm here around a month and I've get 2 games (Well one in the 500 copies giveaway but still cool) and by all I know I never spend a cent for that, I did created a few giveaway of myself but just for the fun of participate, so I can say for myself the odds aren't that bad for all I see.

Because they invade other countries (media only shows one side of the story, many innocents are killed), even when the terrorist threat is gone, for the control of resource and have a corrupted government/military. Also, they waste billions and billions of tax payers money toward this, rather than healthcare and education. They would rather spend it on control and spying even on their own people...

But, but, it's the big internet punching bag! Everybody knows you can just spew random hate at America and everyone will jump on your bandwagon for free karma/upvotes/e-peen/whatever! You can't really expect people to think for themselves and make rational conclusions and develop realistic ideas about complex issues like good governance and international politics instead of just turning off their brains and falling back on generalities and popular appeal!

I'm not saying there isn't the possibility of a nice transaction. I've had the same. But there are a large number of unsavory characters there, plus the constant adding of you from strangers to try and scam.

There is also an awful lot of negative dialogue, unreasonable expectations, and generally immature and hateful/greedy behavior.

It's fine. Not much different than Wall Street. Essentially throw a bunch of maladjusted sociopaths in a room and see what happens. :)

But yes. There's nothing to say that if you have the patience that you won't eventually find a gem in the septic tank.

Not much reason to hate. Great site, but one thing, I don't like the chat too much. People are usually very rude and when you make a little mistake, bang. Banned forever. You'll say "It's your own fault for being banned!" yeah, yeah... Yet, I still think a small warning would be great... Otherwise, Steam Gifts FOR THE WIN!!!

"A little mistake." You made a big mistake, don't even try to pretend otherwise. Your warning should have been to use your bloody brain and think about what you were about to do for a second.

No need to sound rude... I said "You'll say "It's your own fault for being banned!" yeah, yeah..." Yeah. I know I made a big mistake and that it's my own fault, and that is the reason I added the "Yeah, yeah." I'm absolutely not complaining.

When people only gift via private groups and list's etc, to only raise cv and chances to win.
Then they have several hundred or thousand CV just from private giveaways, while the same time claiming they gave the random SG user/community so much.

Appreciate the giveaways for your group(s) but that bragging does not roll over to average user.

also really dislike people who make fun of users who aren't very good at English.
