What makes you do giveaways?

Because getting sth. for free is always nice and I think everyone enjoys free stuff.
Also on this site (at least I think it is like this) everyone has the same chances of winning in a giveaway - no tickets and stuff like that, just one entry per person.
And last but not least getting free stuff is great but after sometime you begin to feel kinda guilty and you start wanting to give sth. back - still working on that though. :D

To feel happy. I feel happy when I make other people happy rather than myself. :3

When I want to have a game but I don't have time to play it or need to play other games first, but I really want that game, so I give other people. I satisfy myself by doing this way.

Edit: Aand I feel like all of us are united here as the whole world. There are a lot of discrimination in the world and I move away from this a tiny bit.

I would consider there to be different reasons for it. Based on the feedback from the discussion board, it could be reasons like:

• Loving throwing money around and making one look better than others.
• Epenis enlargement, engage!
• Need to have sense of (little) power over others.
• Elitist attitude.

Or perhaps it just makes me feel good. Which, interestingly, could be attached to any of the above.

Most of the times I just happen to have games from bundles that are just lying around gathering dust. So what's a better way than making giveaways and entering others in return? It's like one hand washes three others. If I did not have spare games, I would not make giveaways. No money, no honey.

I just give all the games I get in humble bundles that I know I'm not gonna play, or already have. Too much of a pain to trade, plus the person might just rob you anyway lol It's nice getting into the higher level giveaways as a reward though, just hit level 5 this morning.

I like making people happy.

Makes me? Nothing at all... :) But it's the easiest way I know to find people who can't read... :)

It feels good

Because I can't be one of the cool kids if I don't go broke by spending all my money on gifts for strangers.

But mostly, it's because I can. I'm not rich by any mean, but I have a steady job and can afford to give the occasional game. And since I'm a greedy bastard, I usually trade my extra bundle keys so I end up having to actually buy stuff to give away here. (Yeah, greed is playing against me the whole time.) But I kinda like the CV so I prefer to give away non-bundle stuff anyway. :P

The voices, the voices make me do it. I try to tell them no but it doesn't always work...

Sharing, because bundles mostly. No reason not to. Theres also some game-pack sales (for example, 4 packs) and i only have 2really close friends who actually play what i gifted then.

In the begining i leeched in SG; But since i started here i became bundle addicted and i started winning games; Heck only coming hoping to win withotu giving back wasn't cutting it.

Also steamcards. I still don't get all the crazy with level and badge collectors. I sell almost all market itens i get, cards mostly, but some team fortress too, and those revert in GAs. Ive only been slow lately because this past year i barely had time to actually play anything. Right now my steam is running just to get some cards because im still out of time to play. Heck. But fgs this weekend i finish all my duties and christmas will really begin... i hope!

I came here looking for NotAddicted123's reply but he hasn't posted yet :D

Not sure, I like it even if I always lack money :p
One day I'll be able to giveaway better shit :D

Because reasons.

Doing good deeds is giving me this warm fuzzy feel inside. And good deed is also making somebody smile by giving him/her crappy free game to enjoy :3

I could try to explain, but these guys said it better.

Honesstly, I felt bad before I gave a game away.
Now, I do it to balance, I like to give wehn I receive.

I really just had nothing else to do with my bundle leftovers, and I don't really like trading because it involves talking to people and stuff. I have a good ratio on here and I've had people whitelist me because of it, but I kind of feel weird about that, because I've never bought a game just to give away here. All my giveaways have been games from bundles that I already had or didn't want.

Someone told me to do it. Don't remember who. I think his name starts with C.... Carl.... Charles... Constance.. Cons... Conscience! That's it!

I am evil and like to increase other people's backlog.

at first levels and cv, then I found groups... after groups I do not care much about cv and levels (if I don't level down of course).
I'm not a rich person neither (the econoshit in brazil doesn't help at all in this case... the same goes to humble fucking region locked bundle), but I do what I can to pleases who I really like on these groups. I like this place because is kinda problem free. After my fist win I really engaged on this thing... Since then I couldn't stop. :P

Because the birds told me so.

Lots of reasons, probably all covered here:

• It feels good to give people things.
• I like seeing the CV number grow, because 1) it's a measure of how much I've been able to give and 2) it feels good to win things (and CV helps with that, although not many of my wins are high-level).
• Lots of nice people to give things to (WL, Groups, etc.).
• I don't have a lot of (non-idling) game time, so I "live vicariously" through others.
• Sometimes I just want to "spread the word" on a given game.
• I am somewhat addicted to bundles, so I can give away extras.

I'm pure evil.
I love the screams of wallet in the morning

I never thought about why do i do GA.... IT's just random time.. i see a good deal i pull out my credit card.. buy it.. then gift it out...

It comes as natural as breathing or sleeping.
