What makes you blacklist people?

The only people who've blacklisted me did so when I expressed that I didn't like or trust Epic games, and wished people wouldn't support them as they are bad for us as gamers. The reaction was largely "but mah free gamez!1!``!!" and several blacklists. So, while I'm not sure why I'd blacklist someone, the general answer to the original question, in my experience is that people blacklist if you have an opinion they disagree with.

Because they had pie, and refused to share it with me. You never deny a man pie.

i used to do it when i saw people making giveaways of free games

I dont blacklist unless they just dont actiavte their wins and dont even respond to me writing them after more than a week

nothing

Only thing I can think of is direspectful behavior on the forums.

Somebody blacklisted you? Don't care about this. It's because he/she don't like a truth.

I don't blacklist people in general,even though since I started been active again here I got quite a few blacklists myself which I don't mind. But I find petty to blacklist someone just because you don't like his avatar,different oppnion, ratio or having thousands of games in your library...

The most interesting people here are people who keep blacklisting people just for a simple comment about something they do not agree with :)

People get blacklisted for pretty much everything you can imagine. If you are part of SG Support, that in itself is enough to earn a blacklisting. On a personal level, I do not mind if others blacklist me. Blacklisting is a function of our site, and our users should feel free to use it as they wish. I do find it a humorous, however, that some of the people who have me on their blacklist will take me off it long enough to enter my giveaways. And then after the giveaways are over, they add me back, again. D

To return to your question, I almost never use my blacklist. A user has to be uncommonly toxic and/or harmful to our SG community---with no sign of remorse---for me to add him or her to my blacklist. To give you some context, most of the people on my blacklist are permabanned from the site.

I never blacklisted anyone as far as I can remember, never seen a reason to do so.

I'm also one of those who question the mentality of BL someone for not holding giveaways, it's quite absurd imo since those "requirements" would make this a site for tradeaways and not giveaways.

If I give something (be it on SG, Reddit, Discord or elsewhere) I never expect anything in return since it's a gift.

Edit: also, BL is completely broken since people who BL you can still enter your GAs, very strange indeed.

I have only one on my blacklist : a guy who won one of my GAs, and never activated it after one week despite being "online" all the time, never answering to my messages. So re-rolled, and blacklisted that bot.

I know i have been blacklisted by someone on a GA train, because i had made a little mess (that i helped resolve though). The other 10 i have no idea.

I know some people told me from the orphan keys topic that they were blacklisted after winning a key while somone else tried to get it 2 seconds later.

People can be so fragile in their heads sometimes...

Nothing.
Other people do it for all manner of reasons. I'm sure people have given you many reasons: saying thankyou, not saying thankyou, not giving away enough, giving away the wrong thing, winning one of their giveaways, etc. As long as you are visible, you will be blacklisted. You will probably be blacklisted just for posting this question. By the same token, some people also seem to whitelist for all manner of reasons. Try not to lose sleep over it because it is not possible to participate on this site not be blacklisted.

I tend to only blacklist people who are excessively rude, or thier opinions are being forced on others or are extremely [insertprefixhere]phobic / [insertprefixhere]ist.
I also on very rare ocassion blacklist those who have won more than they have given, but it has to be a huuuge amount, even then sometimes I don't (maybe depends on if they say thanks or not.)

I have experienced people blacklisting me for the following:

• Only making GAs for 1p - 10p games.
• Only making GAs for NSFW games.
  The mindset of that I've found is "Why should I hide the game when I can just hide the person?" as they think it will be faster, but ey, if I giveaway Cyberpunk it's their bad lol.

Difference in opinions aren't bad when they're not detrimental to a certain group of people. Those who I have blacklisted have/had opinions of that manner.

Addition: I saw something that Khalaq said that was also fitting that I forgot about, "with no sign of remorse", that and also devoid of either compassion or comprimise.
