1000 is the limit for both white and blacklist.

I wonder if anyone has actually tried to max out either... Seems like a pretty high ceiling.

Oh, I constantly see people talking about how they would like a bigger blacklist limit, so they obviously have. XD

I guess if I could positively identify bots, I would blacklist those accounts, but since I can't, I rarely use it... I have only put on there a few people who either didn't activate the keys within a week from me or I go to their steam page and the wall is filled with requests by SG gifters asking for them to please activate their winnings.

If there was a way to positively identify bots they would be banned anyway (since botting is against the rules already) so the blacklist remains for situations in which people take personal offense to something or other that is beyond the scope of the rules.

I use my blacklist for rule-breakers and people who abuse group privileges. 5 and counting lol. They don't always get banned permanently. One of them got banned later though. Then there is one person who royally pissed me off... but I only blacklisted them because they blacklisted me first. XD.

So there are many reasons people use it other than just being the type that are constantly offended. ;) We might not always agree with their reasoning though. Heh!

Ah, fair enough. By the way, the blacklists were changed lately so they are bidirectional; in case you want to save spots, you could always remove those where you only intended to reciprocate because they hit you first 😋

Haha! I know. But I probably won't even use 20 spots let alone 1000. I was kinda annoyed at the time as was like "Oh yeah? Back at ya." hahaha!

You know, when I added some GAs to the last community train a couple of people unblacklisted me so they could enter. That's the downside, it still allows them to remove you whenever you make a giveaway for something they want. lol. The cooldown should be like a month. XD

The cooldown time is depending on how long you had someone blacklisted. The longer they had you blacklisted the longer it will be brfore they can enter your GAs.

Oh, I didn't realise that. I thought it was 24 hours or something like that. =)

If I remember correctly it caps at 4 weeks, so if you just make sure to make your events last less than that, the people who blacklisted you will not be able to circumvent it unless they did so recently 😄

I used to have a maxed out blacklist, but I am nowhere close to that anymore.
