Thank you for the time spent moderating this sometime disorganised community. I'm glad you're staying around and hope that you will stay somewhat active in the forums. <3

The vast majority of the community cares. Please, remove your two cents. They contain rabies and this is a charity fund. We don't want your rabies.

It's great to see such a nice and good mannered young man these days! But it hurts me knowing that we can't show him our appreciation even more...

Good luck in your future endeavors. The site really has exploded in popularity over the last year or so. What process is required to take on additional support/moderator staff? Should you guys eventually need extra hands of course.

Summer Sales

loko, I think you're making the smartest move for your own sanity. After the number of bad giveaways over keys out of Humble Bundle 5 and Indie Gala 5, I shudder to think what the support forum/reported giveaways list is going to look like after the sale starts.

Thanks for everything, Loko. I've won my first gift from you and I'll be forever grateful not just for the game but because you allowed me to finally get involved with the S.gifts community as well. (Also, thanks for always answering my stupid questions about formatting). Best of luck to you!

I've seen it coming (even joked once about your retirement and not hearing about 'tickets' anymore), I just didn't expect it to happen that fast. We've all seen your tremendous effort to keep this page working and community a nice place, and anyone ever saying otherwise is just an ungrateful dick.
Thank you for all your work, just don't get any nasty idea of leaving us or stepping down from a moderator function at all, you're like a god damn lighthouse to guide us and last time I checked lighthouses didn't move around just because they wanted.
Sniff
Anyway, have fun having more time to play games or doing something even cooler (is there anything cooler?!). If you're getting Torchlight 2 we should play some co-op once ;).

People like you have been a huge help moderating the site, I definitely couldn't do this without members that really cared either. Anyone that says otherwise is just being modest. I wasn't intending to step down entirely, I'll still be around and get back into gaming full-time. Torchlight II sounds like a winner!

Thank you lokonopa! I had no idea you were the sole mod! You've done an amazing job of more than one person. Happy Gaming and good luck

Then Loko kissed Raiden and JadeFalcon, and last of all Yatter, and went aboard; and
the sails were drawn up, and the wind blew, and slowly the ship slipped away down
the long grey firth; and the light of the glass screen of Laptop that Loko bore glimmered
and was lost. And the ship went out into the High Sea and passed on into the West
until at last on a night of rain Loko smelled a sweet fragrance on the air and heard
the sound of Ichigo hailing a farewell that came over the water. And then it seemed to him that as in
his dream in the group of Steam Gifts, the grey rain-curtain turned all to silver glass
and was rolled back, and he beheld white shores and beyond them a far green
country under a swift sunrise.

Nice reference, if I'm remembering correctly, but it doesn't work. You're missing Ichigo.

I fixed it just for you jade (and ichigo). And yes you are correct in the reference, assuming your knowledge of Middle Earth is up to scratch.

Awesome, thanks. Wouldn't want to leave the ponies out of the Grey Havens.

Thanks for being a awesome Moderator and good luck on finishing all those games! Have a good time absorbing the story lines of every game you have!

Greetings community,
It's been a memorable year here at SteamGifts and I felt I've helped out a bit around here. I've made a lot of friends in the process and tried to stay active in the community while moderating. Unfortunately, the activity over the last few months has truly been exhausting for just one person, and I haven't been able to keep up. A few dedicated users in the community have been promoted to (Support) to assist with tickets, but it's only helped with organizing a backlog of tickets in the hundreds.
Fortunately, those Support members will eventually be promoted to moderators on the site and we'll have a full blown staff. We hope this helps many issues plaguing the site, such as requests taking too long or suspicious activity not being dealt with in a timely manner. The FAQ has the new staff listed and this will be updated accordingly to reflect their new positions when the system is ready. As many have noticed, support already received categories to better organize tickets.
The admin is currently working on other helpful updates that will greatly aid the new team. They'll be loaded with features that will make a more robust and efficient bunch than this dinosaur. While I will be stepping down, I won't be leaving the community or abandoning the newly appointed mods when they're just starting. I'll try to remain active and share with them my experiences after moderating SteamGifts solo for a little over nine months, but I will no longer be the primary moderator.
I volunteered to assist moderating SteamGifts when Cult was still boss during the fall of 2011, but due to personal reasons, he had to drop out of the community. I loved the community and what we do around here, so I've dedicated a lot of time and effort in keeping things in order. When I could no longer remain on top of the increasing demands of the community, I decided to step down for the same reasons. It's best for the community and will give me time to start knocking out my gaming backlog. I'll finally be able to start on those purchased during last year's Summer Sales. ;)
Best regards,
loko
