The Ship - Some clarification needed

As long as you redeemed the game yourself, it's okay. Regifting is when you don't redeem what you won. It's no different than if you won a game, then later bought it to give away.

Which is good since The Ship is now full of people and it's a good game.

You got a 2 Pack Gift. One for you,one in your inventory.

Because you did not activate the "original" game - you activated one of the 2 "The Ship 2 Pack" items that are spawned by the Original game.

"Original" (either bought from Steam or a key from the recent promotion )
--> spaws 2x "The Ship 2 Pack" in the inventory when activated

The Ship 2 Pack
--> spawns "The Ship Complete" in the inventory when activated

That completly beats the purpose of the contributions legit gifters make. This is why people hide themselves in the dark or make outrageous rules to get in their giveaways. This is all too stupid, developer giveaways and free promotion games should have always been considered bad in this community, people got used to it and now we have a crapload of leechers defending this cause, because to their eyes, more giveaways = more chances to win and also more points and right now they also have a good chance of giving something in return (extra copy of the ship).

Tell me, does this make any sense when you compare this sort of attitude versus the people who spend their own money to gift things? F*ck, i really hate this stuff it pisses me off and gives me more of a reason to not give anything ever again in this website. It's stuff like this that ruins everything and splits the community into groups of favorites and legit ones to the eye of a few.

If i were CG i would lock every freaking free promotion game that was given on mass by developers or by an organization.

Also, it should be against the rules doing these giveaways. In the FAQ, rules mention that any sort of beta giveaways are not permitted, yet i see devs using this website to show off their games and giving away beta games all the freaking time and they also get contribution value for these. This is also another wrong thing CG is doing, if a player makes a beta giveaway he will likely get suspended/warned and his giveaway deleted, if its a dev beta giveaway it's all like "Oh come in, we welcome you, despite you are breaking some of our rules, we still welcome you with a cup of tea and a few hand shakes".

Yes it might be strong, but nothing's too strong when i see people getting value in return for something they got for free from another place, it's basically the samething as regifting things you win.

Plus, lot's of us contributors spend money to make others happy. Then again when stuff like this happens, some of us will think twice or evil next time they will make a giveaway, and by that i mean, they will likely go from soft to hardcore gifting, more rules and traffic control in their giveaways. It's like the internets police all over the place nowadays.
