How many winners never say thanks to the contributor?

Most my giveaways are done in a certain group and everyone in that group is thankful really so my experiences have been nothing but good :D

i don't care. really, I don't care is there thanks or isn't, never bothered me :D

Yeah, consider giving them to groups you like.

I have won just one game so far, am pretty new here, but I couldn't imagine not saying thank you. In fact, I thanked the person who gave the game I won by giving them an indigala bundle just as a thanks. To win a free game and not even say thank you to me is just insulting but I will admit I do not comment a "thank you" for every game I enter for.

I say it multiple times sometimes...I think I might be annoying O_o.

Thankfully, the first games i gave away here were to groups, but besides that, i've had only one bad experience where the winner had never activated his gift (HL2, on a public giveaway), but thankfully all the others were nothing but great experiences, some even commenting after they finished the game.

Don't give up on the community yet, you might find somewhere fitting for you.

Mm, I normally add the person to say thanks, but one of my wins the person wouldn't add me so I couldn't say thanks.

Yeah, I stopped making public giveaways because at least one third of the time I never even heard from the winner except for the game being activated and "gift received" showing up.

I rarely leave comments on giveaways I enter unless there's something interesting to say (i.e. it was a puzzle) but I ALWAYS thank people when I win and they send me a key/gift. It's only natural...

about 75% of my public giveaways don't say thanks...

I think all of my winners said thanks. I also say thanks everytime I win(except for one of the ones i won, that the guy added me, said "hello, there it is your game:RANDOM-KEY-INSERT-HERE" and i activated it. As I starting to write thanks, he removes me from friends.

50% for me.

well im sure since this is a public site, their are PLENTY of leechers (mind you im no better, ive yet to contribute however, i figure you only get "thanks" half the time due to the fact that people dont necessarily want the game -vs- just wanting to increase the size of their steam library. Personally, im not broke and i have a somewhat steady job so i dont mind purchasing games that only semi-interest me -only when their on sale. (considering they only partially interest me) However im in no rush to play all these games (as im quite busy) so i tend to enter only in contributions that id know id be willing to try but not necessarily willing to buy for myself.

speaking for myself, (not that ive gotten lucky yet mind you) im just grateful their are people actually giving away games because in most if not all cases, money is always tight and gaming is a luxury. Im sure for all the people who may not say thanks but trully end up playing the game, are grateful, even if they dont express it outward (not that im defending them neither, more so to help give some sort of closure i suppose.)

Either way, im glad you contribute, and i hope that you can find sone sort of resolve in how ya feel.
Thank you

I don't like saying thanks as a comment (looks insincere when the comments are just a wall of 'Thanks'), but if I won something, I'd damn well say thank you for that through email or Steam.

I've only made three giveaways so far, but I've had a good experience with them all. They all said thank you, and two of the winners are still on my friends list.

i won 1 game only, i say thank to the guy who made the giveaway,and he still in my friend list of steam is not so hard to do

I rarely say thank you on the giveaways because it's such a hassle to scroll down every time... I did it for the first few giveaways I entered and now for the odd one.

I always say thanks in person though (when I've won^^).

Only 1 person didn't give thanks to me. You are obviously doing it wrong. Create giveaways ONLY in groups and private for forums and chats, you will avoid 90% of the worst leechers. Oh, well, you can also obviously raise requirement for contribution points and it will wipe out even more jerks.

Thanks x 36 for every give-away you made

I've only done one giveaway to date and won one personally. In both cases, an email was sent thanking the contributor for the gift.

Hmmmm... 3?

Meh, I've done 11 giveaways the past few days, around half said thanks. I also won my first giveaway an hour ago. Little did I know the person hosting it changed the description to say they key was region locked and to withdraw our entries. Nice to know the first time I win I get nothing! Certainly won't be saying thanks there...

Thanks for skyrim!

People are unthankful greedy bastards! Fact!

Having 50% people say thanks to you? Great deal!

If you want a thank you for something, go to a grocery and buy something, the chances of getting a thanks there are way bigger. Sad but true.
