Checking some profiles I noticed people with higher comment count have more giveaways won , does it matter or is it just coincidence ?

Be active on the forums, contribute and keep an eye on private group recruit threads.

no, These people are more on the forum (not counting if that counts as comment spamming ''thanks'' on all the giveaways). Sometimes there are puzzles, hidden giveaways, stuff like this. Most of them are in giveaways groups or private giveaway groups.

People with high comment ratio are usually forum lurkers, very social etc. While it doesn't change their chance at winning exactly, being social and commonly known in community raise your chance to join GA groups or being invited to "friends-only" private GAs. And lurking forum let you find even more Private GAs (forum drops, puzzles, hidden ones etc.). So that's where the trend may come from :>

People say commenting gives you a chance to be noticed for an invite to a private group etc. But they forgot one possibility...

What if you are a big jerk? Commenting might get you put in someone's anti-mean people blacklist. :) So be careful, if you are a meanie better to keep silent... :)

There is a high chance to get into a group which have a lot of open giveaways all the time if you have good comment ratio - that's it. :)

The number of comments just shows that they get more involved in the community, thus probably enter more private giveaways and thus have higher chances of winning. Also, click here to find out more.

Yes, every time you hit 1000 comments, you get powerups, that increase your chance to win on certain giveaways by 50%.

It does not matter but it isn't a coincidence neither.
You will find that people with higher comments have a different GA Entries:Comments ratio. They have less entries because they usually have high CV or are in a GA group, raising the odds a lot. People with no comments are more likely to not give away any games except bundle stuff, resulting in lower chance to win as well as them not seeing all the puzzles and forum giveaways that have higher odds that public ones as well.

That is the explanation
