I was wondering.. Let's say I win a game, and i wanna give it to my brother. Is that against the rules of this site? Or I don't have any options except activating it on my linked account?

You have to activate it in your account. Read the FAQ.

Yes, of course. Just not one that you've won here.

The good thing about this site is that you're not forced to use it if you don't like the rules. :D

I win the lottery and they go " if you share it, we take it away from you". Logical ^^.

They don't have anything in their rules to tell you you can or can't. This site does.

It's not a lottery, it's a person giving a game to another person who wants to play said game...

If you don't plan on activating the game on the account that won it, then there's no reason for you to join that giveaway.

Again, if you don't like the rules of this site, you're free to leave. :D

Meaning that it's more like you receive a gift and go "I don't want this, I'll sell it and buy booze".

You came to the site, wanting free games. The least you can do is follow the rules here.

That is a bonus, but you are still required to follow the rules. Everyone here must, unless they want a suspension. :P

You brother deserves better. Probably.

Do what I do, buy a game on your account, share with him. Though in my case, its PSN accounts on both my and his PS3. I'll often grab stuff intended just for him like Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and Rayman Origins.

You might want to read the FAQ.

Freebie:
"Can I enter a giveaway for a friend?

  • You should only enter to win giveaways for yourself, and if you win a game, it must be activated and redeemed to the Steam account used during registration. If a friend is interesting in joining giveaways, they'll need to register for their own account."

He gave away games and believes he is more entitled because of that.

He should look at mine. :P

Count yourself lucky. You shouldn't have been able to enter for the giveaway. :P

If you are wondering what I'm talking about, you will need to look up the Contribution Levels, and bundle games. Right now, I doubt your two giveaways are on the bundle list, but when they are, your level will drop to where it should be. Which will be less than L3.

He gave them away before they were bundled though.

So? You gave away 2 bundled games, big deal.
