Hmm I'm not sure how it's abusing giveaways. It wasn't a price error. The developer changed it to that price and it's been that way for months. Why is it wrong to take advantage of that? Shouldn't that be considered a smart way to build up your level? If someone gets 50 or 100 copies of a game from a developer are they abusing the system because they got those games for free and it helps them level quickly?
I don't understand why it's a problem but hey it's your group and your rules. Thx for replying and have a nice weekend.

If you could improve your CV ratio sometime, we would love for you to join us! :)

Great idea, but I won't make a cut - I'm happy and willing to make lots of giveaways, but CV-wise not so much I can do with my income, but I keep being lucky and won good games :D Absolutely no hard feelings, not like I would need more chance to win games - I hope in the future, at some point, I can improve my real CV-ratio as well, not just the sent-won :)

Nice one... this is quite what I had in mind for Student and other casual gifters. I was even considering pulling through on the AA theme and have some rules / points to follow for group meetings, such as... no gifting allowed in the group! But I think that would just be too hard for all the qualifying people :)
I've looked at the Real CV Ratio (TM) for the first time, and apparently I barely qualify... any expensive win would destroy my 2:1 ratio, and I'd rather reduce than increase my spending on gifts, so I'll leave my space for somebody else.
Good luck with the group!

At least 30% of your GAs have to be public or “invite only” forum GAs
How do I check if I qualify?
Comment has been collapsed.
But it shows the number of giveaways, not the gifts sent. Plus, it can't know if the "invite only" giveaways was a forum GA or not :S
Comment has been collapsed.
Yeah that's what I wondered too-- invite-only doesn't just mean forum-based. Although I guess if somebody really wants to create 30 giveaways and secretly send them to 5 users, power to them...

Check http://www.sgtools.info/real-cv it will show you real CV and how your GA are divided; invite only, public and groups.
Comment has been collapsed.
I know-- but the point is that it has no way of knowing if invite-only means a forum-based GA. You can create an invite-only GA, give the URL to 5+ friends, and receive CV for it.

Hello! You are currently at 1,130:792 ratio (GA vs won)
We would love to have you join us if you increased your CV a bit more <33 !
Comment has been collapsed.
Sorry, should have replied to you instead of MilleW
that tool counts multiple copies GAs as 1 (still calculates CV correctly though). SG profile counts each copy as a separate GA. Quantity doesn't match but CV matches.
and GAs with less than 5 entries do not give any CV so they don't show up in CV calculator either.
Since we agreed that ratio requirement should be based on CV numbers we won't be able to invite you at the moment even though you gave away A LOT =\ we may do round two of invites a little later

Those look like fluffy dogs! I have two dogs myself but they are mutts. And rescues. That's how I get all my dogs.
Comment has been collapsed.
That's a very good thing to do. All my dogs were rescues as well except for one of my current ones. Like I said, you do not see many Bouviers around anymore and as this are big, strong dogs you also do not want to have a 50kg fighting machine in your house.
Comment has been collapsed.
LOL, you say fighting machine and it reminds me of an Ex-Girlfriends mom who used to have a belgian malinois in her house. That dog had nothing to do and just destroyed things constantly. Such a high energy dog. Really needed to have a job, not just sit around the house.

But no one here is an addict, so the name of the group is rhetorical.
Comment has been collapsed.
We are no addicted! I would be a normal member because I'm a casual gifter and do GAs once or maybe twice a month! I don't even qualify to be in the group, never mind the VP
Comment has been collapsed.
an opportunity to make table! ( and brag?!)
yours truly | level | ratio | comments | public/group/private | bans |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
numbers | 7 | $1805/$693 | 8,964 | 57/165/55 | 2(+1) |
I used to make group giveaways for public group I'm mod at..that's why ratio can be skewed..I should start again on that..
1 ban was for calling out instead of writing ticket. i wrote on khalaq's announcement thread that 1 guy was making fake giveaways(he was.)
I am still banned from steamgifts chat room for asking for hints for puzzle some 9-10 months back. which I still maintain creator of puzzle was okay with. trigger happy mod wasn't.
another ban i might get for saying Fuck in comments to some prude with pink profile pic of a helmet.don't remember name. he says he have reported me this morning. well fuck.
so now that I think abt it it's not a great application.. have tabular bump!

Bundle Addicts Anonymous (BAA)
Rachellove, KTS and I decided to create a small group for people who are as addicted to bundles, deals, gifting games, making friends, and the SG community as much as we are.
What is BAA?
This is not a ratio-based giveaway group, nor do we focus solely on giving away games. Initially, when we formed this group, we aimed to unite kind-hearted, generous SG members to share giveaways with. However, it has since grown into a friendly gathering of users who feel comfortable chatting, playing games, and sharing thoughts and opinions openly with each other.
Over time, we have adjusted our old rules to accommodate the needs of the group and to incorporate the helpful suggestions of our members.
We strive to build a tight-knit community of people who give much more than they take or receive, enjoy talking to other members, and love the SteamGifts community in general. Most importantly, we expect all members to be active within our group.
Why BAA?
This is, in essence, a smaller community within the greater SG community comprised of individuals with a variety of unique personalities and backgrounds – so all introverts and extroverts are welcome!
We take all of our members very seriously and expect them to follow all rules, including maintaining a real CV ratio and respecting all members of the group.
However, we are also a fun-loving group of people who realize that SG and friendships are more than giving away games – it’s about finding people to connect with, play games with, talk to, and forge lasting relationships with.
When joining, please consider YOUR reasons for joining this group, as we do not accept those who want to use this group as a +1 or to simply give and win games. We take a holistic approach to selecting members, taking into consideration people’s contributions to SG, their personalities and unique attributes, and whether or not they mesh well with our values.
How and When can you join BAA?
Please ensure that you meet all entry requirements listed in the section below and post all necessary information, along with an explanation as to why you would like to join. We will review your application when we begin to accept new members and spots become available.
Member limit: around 100
Entry requirements:
Level 5+
$1 won : $2 sent in Real CV value, not the quantity on your SG profile.
1000+ comments and continuously active on forum.
At least 30% of your GAs have to be public or “invite only” forum GAs (not just giveaways for private groups or all region-restricted GAs).
No multiple wins or unactivated games.
Once you join:
If you want to join us, please let us know in comments below by posting # of comments, your Real CV ratio, any relevant information as stated in the Entry Requirements section above, and why you would like to join BAA. We’ll send you an invite once spots are open again if you are accepted!
