Well since I am now classed as Wallister 2.0 and its "we" now...

Lets have my opinion on this er... "Event"

Lets start with a quote:

"give a man a fish and you feed him for a day; teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime"

Now folks, in this case this person is generous. He gives. The thought is there. He earns his money, Spends his money. Gives the games he buys from his money. Silly, I don't know you and you don't know me. My opinion of you is neutral and from this thread and what you said about me well is swaying me the other way. I was in a bad place, I just started my medication and I can now say I'm in a better place. So judge me for me, not my mental illness and what it makes me.

But this isn't about me.

What you are doing here is promoting begging. You are telling people who may be poor, young or lazy. I was all three of those before this place and still kind of am. Yet I have given and quite a lot in that matter and people like me for it.

I'm not saying that giving someone something to give is bad, I've done it in the past and have had it done to me. But man don't publish it on here because people will expect other people to give for them.

Basically, I want to show a conversation that I had a few days ago and the outcome of it... Promote this thread don't hand out the fish. For the love of god you could have done an event about giving games and the participants that gave games would be joined to a group for a giveaway you would have done...

Anyway I am ranting so I'm going to leave this album here of the conversation:

I don't generally write a big comment, only some bump here and there because I always felt that it's a waste of time. However, I've never seen so much negativity in a thread since I joined, so I had to say that even though I don't think your idea is really that great, I commend you for trying to do some good. We'll probably just end up with a bunch of new lvl 1 leechers, but if at least 1 of those use it as a ladder to get even higher, I guess you could consider this event a success. Afterall, the impact of incentives on human behavior cannot be ignored.
At the end of day, it's a lot easier to point at the flaws (like I'm doing xD) of someone else plan than to come up with your own. Anyway, good luck with your event.

In his last event of this sort, one of the "winners" went on to create another 253 giveaways since.
That's 253 more giveaways than all 800,000 level 0's on the site combined.

Maybe that will put it in perspective for some of the "negative" people on this thread. -_-

I find his behaviour very strange, again, I don't really understand why you would be so desperate to get to level 1 if you aren't intending on entering any giveaways or give anything away. Or why you would complain you haven't won anything? Unless you were looking for the obvious "here's something without entering a giveaway" freebie, never entering gives you absolutely no attention. I find the entire accounts behaviour to be very strange.

Whatever it is, I find the behaviour on the account to be strange, strange enough to have suspicions. Such as legitimately complaining that he hasn't won anything without entering for anything, then changing tact and saying it as a "joke". That said, I did say further down that I obviously have to give him the benefit of the doubt.

People don't learn how to ride a bike by reading the goddamn manual.
I simply don't get why people get offended by someone doing an event for the ones that haven't had the chance or 'courage' to contribute something in form of a giveaway besides that being no requirement one has to fulfill to "gain" the right use this site anyway and start trashing it like hell. For example, even if it's kinda far-fetched and slightly offensive xD: Running a soup kitchen and offering free food doesn't make the people relying on such services in any way or form beggars nor leeches, to me that sounds just fucking insulting and pretentious. It's just another way of pushing people over the edge and showing them how rewarding gifting things can be - and i don't mean necessarily gaining access to some GA's thousands of other already have~... I mean it's not in an amount where he changes the odds anyhow; begrudging this rather speaks volumes about the people who do so tbh :|... they might wanna consider changing to barter.vg or something like that. As Silly already said and you seconded, even if it's only one that get's convinced of the concept behind SG by letting them being a part of what this site is all about, this event is a success. Everybody else will integrate just fine with the vast amount of LVL1 users and people can create LVL2+ GAs to exclude them. I really don't get what the fuss is all about ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ and it kinda annoys me to see how 'new' users get discouraged to partake in this community.

Meh, just my 2 cents.

Pandoras box, where do you draw the line? Level 1, 2, 3? Whats the so called lowest amount thats acceptable to give away before its not ok? Farming level 10 with dev keys = evil, farming keys off another user to reach level = inspired form of charity.

Get rid of the middle man, if someone is too poor to give for level 1, directly gift to them. Making them earn level 1 before they can potentially win is worse. You don't make the people in the soup kitchen cook the food for a chance at some soup, you give them the soup.

I just want to remind you that, while you're shitting all over Silly's event thread, no one is shitting on yours. So please, just go back to your own thread and get back to your back-patting and ego-stroking, because your "generosity", lecturing, and pretentious posturing are just making you look like an angry, spoiled child here (and in several other threads).

No excuse you can come up with is a valid excuse for what you've been doing. It's immaturity, plain and simple, particularly after all your preaching, long-winded speeches, and temper tantrums over your own event threads. I'm sorry, but someone needs to say it, and it may as well be me. Feel free to pass it along to your boyfriend as well, because the two of you have done nothing but prove me right about the both of you.

That whole "teach a man to fish" speech? Do you even know what it means? It means lead by example. Try it sometime.

Oh, and I own a two-bedroom home, and have for more than 8 years (not that it's any of your business). I also own two cars and work three jobs. I left home at 17 to make my own way in the world and to escape a mentally and physically abusive environment. The last time I spoke with my mother, she was pointing a gun at me. Make a note of it please for your next rant. If there's anything else you'd like to know, just ask. Please feel free to continue with the attacks (they actually amuse me but also embarrass me with all the attention you're giving) but do make sure your information is at least somewhat accurate. :3

Since you also seem to have a hard-on for Mully, let me pass along a bit of information. Mully has purchased exactly one game for herself over the past 14 months I've known her. The rest goes to SG gifting and gifts for friends (including me), often at the expense of her own health (also none of your business and she'd kill me if I told you) and food. She buys gifts for SG rather than replace the burnt up graphics card in her own PC. Can you say the same? She's my dearest and most generous friend, and I'm proud to call her such. I wish more people were like her, because we could all learn something from her. And yes, I love my friend and wish I were more like her as well. I'm not ashamed of it, nor do I care who knows.

In all honesty, it's you who should be ashamed, and not praising, yourself.
Have a wonderful day now. :3

Shit over it. I don't care anymore. Yeah I will keep doing that. Honestly, I'm not arsed about my image on the forums. Like you said. You don't know a thing about me.

Yeah I do giveaways, thats my leading example to level 0s :)

Good for you. Glad your life is better.

I live in a 2 bedroom house with 3 people. My sister has a child on the way and she is sleeping in the living-room. My mum is a single mother and has been long term unemployed until recently. I don't know my father and probably won't ever. My step dad is an alcoholic and when I was a child I vividly remember spending christmas behind a christmas tree as the police stood an interviewed my mother surrounded by broken furniture and my crying sister in my arms and maybe other moments like that that I'd rather not talk about. I got bullied for what I wore to school. I cried myself to sleep every night and a few weeks ago I finally figured out I'm suffering from depression. I have to help my mum pay rent now and my sister gets no money for her child so we all have to raise her together. Yes, I said on SG because this is the one place I can go to and see online friends and feel like people care about me. Sure my family is supportive and my mum is so strong and brave but I found a community that liked me and it felt good to give games to people and make friends.

Not going to lie. I'm bought myself a lot of games. But last year I bought myself pretty much nothing and just gave games. I'm typing on my first and only PC that I saved up for and built myself.

So yeah, we have all had shit lives. I don't know you and you don't know me. Thats the beauty of this website. We are all different but really we all have similar problems.

Have a nice holiday, Tzaar. I hope Mullins gets her GPU soon :3

Like you said. You don't know a thing about me.

I also don't rant nonsense about you. Everything I've stated is based on observations of your actions/comments lately, which I've found to be abusive, childish, and incorrect for the most part. I'll take a pass on the patronizing diatribe and "well-wishing". We're both aware of their insincerity after your recent remarks. I'd much prefer honesty, thanks.

Of course, I fully expected a reply where you once again pat yourself on the back, make everything about you, and let everyone know how "generous" you are, all while trying to justify your actions, and you certainly didn't disappoint in that regard. You seem to be stuck on that, and it's unbecoming a lady. Had I pointed out any generosity on my own part, it would most certainly have been warranted. However, I don't find it generous at all to call myself generous when I also enter and win giveaways. If you do ever see me call myself generous, please feel free to point it out, as I would then fully expect to be humbled.

I don't make comments about your life, and didn't ask for your life's story, so don't expect me to sympathize. I don't much care for sympathy or attention, and you will very rarely see me comment anything about my personal life; I was merely correcting your misinformation about me (and Mully) to benefit your future rants. As I said, I find your recent behavior amusing, albeit a bit on the obsessive side, and most definitely hypocritical. I don't much like hypocrites, as they're next closest thing to a liar, and I despise liars. I also tend to dislike braggarts, but that's neither here nor there.

As it stands, it would appear this was just another opportunity for more posturing, justification, and back-patting on your part. So be it. I look forward to being amused by you in the future. :3

Edit: On second thought, maybe you should stick with the "friend zoning people living in their mums basement?" bit, because "friend zoning people living in their own 2 bedroom home" doesn't have quite the same ring to it. :X

I didn't once say I was generous. I do the exact same as everyone else on this site. Yeah of course I enter and win games. Like I don't know what you want me to say about that.. I mean... I'm not generous at all really... I give alright games and win AAA games. So really I'm a leech in disguise... Like yeah... Winning is nice...

Well, I didn't ask about your life story. Thought I'd give equal ground for us. I don't expect sympathy at all. likewise I won't sympathize with you. And it was a joke, I'm just doing exactly what the other two did with me. Lmao, I'm the obsessive one... Literally I've seen so many comments about both Ally and I. Before it was the odd one I'd stumble upon but now I read out of curiousity and a lot are aimed and its creepy. Literally this morning was the once and last time I would do something like that. Cause man its boring. I don't know how they do it. They are acting like two teenage girls at the back of the bus shouting abuse at people...

Cool. Because... You know it was you that replied to me... So, I guess I was just taking the opportunity to give myself a pat on the back! So thanks! My ego is fulfilled! <3

But Yirg's guide details how to farm levels without "spending" their own money, since you need to spend time doing tasks on tremorgames, or set up cards to sell on the market.

Also, answer like any of my other questions or make your profile unprivate or theres no point talkimg to this account.

Fewer than 100, going to my account page 25 of them are "Complimentary" ex. Clicker Heroes, Path of Exile. A lot of them are from free key giveaways such as Vertical Drop Heroes HD. No AAA games, the other games are from friends I've met elsewhere. I've never bought a bundle before.

theres no point talkimg to this account.

And from here

I think you are an alt out to stir trouble yes.

Cool so you're accusing me of being an alt because that's more likely than being a decent level 0 user. I would be a pretty shitty alt considering I don't enter giveaways or troll. You claim to have " no issue with [me] as a person, [my] level being 0, [my] total lack of giveaway in 3 years" yet you're putting me under the microscope to scrutinize me and my worth it seems. And then calling me an alt, which is like saying I'm not even a valid person.

Mate, you spoke to me, if you don't like my responses, stop speaking to me. If you didn't want to be scrutinized, don't put yourself up for scrutinization. You applied for this event, you then commented to me disagreeing with what I said(which is fine btw, you can disagree without descending into madness, which is my one take away here from talking to you, some people in this thread seemed unable to discuss things without resorting to swearing, name calling or flat out bringing up things that don't pertain to anything).

You have a private profile, make it unprivate, show your inventory. You're asking me to take your word on something that I want proof for, I have no reason to believe anything you say tbh. You've ducked and dodged the question, hell if I looked at your profile and agreed with you, I'd flat out give you a game.

Yirg's guide shows you how to "farm" level 1 without spending a penny, correct, that's my point. What's the difference between level 1 farming and level 10 farming? Both cost nothing, one is apparently saintly, the other is apparently the devil.

I don't get your point at all? Why are you so desperate for level 1? It's literally meaningless to you. You don't get to click better adds, you don't get extra reporting privileges, you don't make giveaways and you don't enter giveaways. Getting level 1 is literally pointless, you will contribute the same amount to this site as you would being a level 0. So for me, alongside the fact that you comment a lot, profile is private and various other things I'm not willing to discuss, yes I air on the side of believing you are an alt account. I could be wrong of course, I'm not totally infallible.

I also completely disagree with the whole tone of this event and it's summed up in what you said right then "a decent level 0 user", there's no such thing. It's a "decent user" your level doesn't matter one single bit, you can be the nicest guy on Earth and be level 0/1/2/3 or the biggest dick on Earth and be level 8/9/10. This created idea that level denotes character is stupid, if you hadn't applied for this event, then gone out of your way to tell me you were level 0 I would have never known.

Then why did you ask me to "answer like any of my other questions or make your profile unprivate". I answered but you're still not satisfied. So you've called me an alt and a liar. Well, it's public now, but I feel like you're just going to escalate asking for proof, as is the trend.

What's the difference between level 1 farming and level 10 farming?

The difference is who is asking. In this thread the person is willingly giving the game to the future giveaway creator. The level 10 case, the giveaway creator is asking others to give them games.

Why are you so desperate for level 1?

I posted "Posting because I'm level 0. I hope people don't call me a leech :<". I didn't realize that it would enter me in this giveaway, I asked Silly to unenter me but they haven't been online. But I guess you're going to think I'm lying about that too.

This created idea that level denotes character is stupid

I agree, and I guess Silly too, which is why Silly is trying to dismantle to level system by giving away games to level up with.

At a cursory glance most your games are bundle games, which leads me to believe that you've bought bundles or people have given you bundle games. Of those games, enough of them have 0 hours which means you can idle for 5-10 minutes with the instant card drops to get money to buy a cheap game to giveaway. Commando's is 44p for example a classic game, that's a good game not trash that you could giveaway. You've actually got some damn good games you have 0 hours in, which is common with most steam users, I'd recommend Dawn of War Retribution, its a fantastic game.

The level 10 users was asking for dev keys to promote their game, now I don't agree with it but I don't necessarily think there's much difference between them and this. Some devs obviously believe that its worthwhile donating to promote their game. As much as i dont agree with what they're doing, I can't see a difference between them and this.

I didn't see your request to join, if you did ask to be ommitted, good for you. I respect that decision.

Its not a personal thing, my comment applies to all level 0's, all level 10's, all users, you just happened to be the one who replied to me. Again I want to reitterate my respect for you being able to post your opinion without descending into a petty hate filled flame war. Its ok to disagree so long as its a constructive discussion.

I don't think he is deconstructing the level system, as much as I don't agree with it, we have to live within it. If he really wanted to support lower levels or poor people, I think he should directly give to them. Not give to get them out of the stigma of being level 0, that does nothing but perpetuate the problem. If anything he is promoting the idea that level 0 should be stigmatised.

I've said this before, but I think it needs restating, its his game. If he wants to make level 0's suck a dick to get a game, thats his decision to make and the level 0's decision to follow. I can't stop him doing it. It doesn't mean I can't disagree with it, just like the same people disagreed with my nomination events(of which not 1 level 0 was nominated by the level 0 heroes).

There is a lack of transparency within the motives that are being set aside by certain people, for example some people didnt like this event until I agreed with them. Now its a case of "i cant believe the hate", its cool for them to shit on any opinion I have. I tried to discuss why I didn't agree with it, and personal hate and my girlfriend got brought up. Followed by making up something I never said.

If you are not an alt, sorry, if you are low on money, sorry. It doesn't change my opinion that this event is not a good thing in my opinion. I'm open to my opinion being changed, I'm open to discussion. People don't want discussion though, they want to bait and be passive aggressive or straight up bring up old arguments instead of discussing the matter at hand.

sorry. It doesn't change my opinion that this event is not a good thing in my opinion. I'm open to my opinion being changed, I'm open to discussion.

Open to discussion like you were on your own event thread? You know, the one you closed and told all of SG to "Fuck Off", because someone else posted a discussion taking a census concerning nomination events? Not a single person on that thread posted anything even remotely negative on your thread (or even in that thread), yet you felt obliged to attack theirs.

The hypocrisy is real with you. You expect to be able to comment your discontent with something, even going to the point of being abusive and childish about it, but if someone looks at your event sideways, you go ballistic, toss a tantrum, and harass people endlessly for it.

Please continue to play the victim here, Wallister. No one forced you to come to this thread posting your negativity, especially after all your rants and speeches informing others to stay off event threads they don't like. You could have avoided it as easily as you suggest others do, as easily as I and others avoid events we don't like, but you didn't.

You're no victim. You're a bully, plain and simple, the very thing you claim to hate so much.

Yes, I get that you don't like me, and I don't care. But I most certainly don't go around posting about you or Chicken, or on your events. I simply don't care enough to bother. Ya'know, it's kinda how I ignore event threads I don't like.HINTFUCKINGHINT ;)

On the other hand, the two of you have demonstrated otherwise, on multiple occasions, over multiple people, and on multiple threads. It appears you're trying to shift blame now to cover your own asses and your overly obsessive behavior over the comments others have made, and you're attempting to include me among their number with your implications. Just my personal perspective, of course.

I'm not baiting you or harassing you in the least. I pointed out facts, and asked a simple question. I just happen to be very blunt and like to get right to the point. I didn't even point out how you attacked someone, called that person a retard, ignorant, a pathetic fuck, and a half dozen other things in their own event thread, and all while they were sleeping. ;_;

Then I pointed out your hypocrisy. You wouldn't even be on this thread if you took your own advice, Wallister. That was kinda my whole point from the get-go, and after all your preaching and speeches I thought you'd get it, but you've apparently missed it somehow. You most certainly won't see me posting on your events, so yes, I do actually take my own advice, thanks (though oddly enough, it wasn't exactly mine). :X

I could go on to point out how you discredited someone's opinion here due to their SG level, but that's another entirely different level of condescension.

Last time I checked, I don't need to ask permission from you to reply on the forums.

You don't need my permission, I was just using an argument you used, but hypocrisy, it only applies when it suits you.

You have gone around for the last few days spouting nonsense all over the forums wherever you can about me and Chicken. When we haven't even been in the thread, or only one of us has. We've ignored it on the main but your fascination with us is borderline insanity.

Just use your script and don't talk about us. Its not hard. If you don't like my event, feel free to comment on it, so long as its in an adult fashion you're welcome to it. Bashing me in a publicGA, going on to make light of Chickens mental illness is not exactly an adult discussion.

I don't even know why you replied, its off topic, i wasn't referring to you. Its another example of being unable to just approach things in an adult fashion. Maybe once I got baited into it, not now.

For the 5,000th time, stop trying to argue with me or start a flame war. The forums dont want it, I don't want it, its not going to help matters. It was months ago, move on.

I replied bluntly to chicken finally this morning after the two of you spammed hate and nonsense everywhere yesterday evening. That's been my only real criticism of her to this point.

As usual, you sidestep the issue entirely. I've asked the same question multiple times. If you're such a firm believer in spreading "positivity" and ignoring events you don't like, why did you even come to this thread in the first place?

It's either that or stop making your little "speeches" about how others should stay off the event threads they don't like, when you cannot show the same simple courtesy to others. It's utter hypocrisy. Silly didn't come to your thread. You came to his.

  • You accused Silly (in your comment to him) of breaking the rules. That's actually "calling out" and is against the rules. ;)
  • You've falsely accused me of posting all over the forums about you (and Chicken). I don't.
  • You've falsely accused me of posting in your event threads. I don't. I ignore them.
  • You've falsely accused Fubar of being someone's alt to discredit anything he stated. He's not.
  • You've told others to stay off event threads they don't like. You don't do the same.

Well I've stated that I haven't ever bought a bundle, which I guess you still don't believe whatever I say. The games that I do end up playing and receive cards I give back to my friends who gave me the games as a thank you.

I'd recommend Dawn of War Retribution, its a fantastic game.

My computer can't run it unfortunately. Even running Clicker Heroes causes it to lag sometimes, haha.

I tried to discuss why I didn't agree with it, and personal hate and my girlfriend got brought up.

If you didn't want to be scrutinized, don't put yourself up for scrutinization.

If anything he is promoting the idea that level 0 should be stigmatised.

I don't agree with that.

If you are not an alt, sorry, if you are low on money, sorry.

So it seems you still think I'm an alt of a rich person.

You're comparing body parts and actual charity to a game website based on gifting. Level 0 has nothing to do with that.

Donating a kidney doesn't somehow level you up for the right to get a heart in the future. If you want to help those that need it, directly gift to them. I don't donate blood to people who have shown a willingness to donate their own blood in the future.

If you can't give anything away physically can't, then don't give anything away. I don't see an issue here. no user is more entitled to anything more than the next. Level 0 or level 10, both deserve to get whatever they can be allowed to enter. On the flip side, everyone deserves life, comparing them is totally incomparable.

yeah...that's me just having fun, because why the hell would i need to start a petty fight over meaningless shit that doesn't affect me in any way.

Ive already stated my opinion. Its odd, i have no will to do the same...he/she doesnt need to have proof has if it was an experiment. Its giving and its done out of kindness, without expecting return from every user.
If its against the site, ill let mods deal with it...dont need to start a fight over different opinions.

Fwiw, I want no part of the flame war thats being attempted to be rekindled. I've said so many times its ok to disagree, just stop mentioning us at every turn. Its really difficult though because every thread I see its brought up out of context or for totally no reason, the most recent thing was giving away AAA discounted games to "farm" CV. It just feels like any excuse to post something is jumped upon whilst bringing up things that pertain to months ago.

Happy to hear that at least one was "helped". I have no doubt that there are better ways of helping these people achieve lvl 1, but OP's event is a away nonetheless. I know the discussion about a "free lunch" is one of the most controversial of all times, and will always be, but it seems to me that some people here are just using the thread in order to unburden themselves about other situations as well. I may be wrong, but I couldn't read it anymore because of the amount of vitriol being thrown around.

it wouldn't even matter if it was a failure. Its giving, you dont expect it to be reciprocated everytime.
it would be shameful of me to hope most of them to change their attitude.
most contributions here both give and hoard at the same time. reward system. Not exactly an unselfish act either.
Thats not say that it would turn lvl 1 pointless if it ever became a trend.
Just seems like an odd idea...but hey, their game now, they can do whatever they like with it,
even getting a false sense of contribution

Yep, I agree. I just find it odd there are so many toxic naysayers on a thread where the OP gives and gets nothing in return. To me, that's the true spirit of giving. It's also disturbing for me to find those types of comments so close to a holiday based (at least in some regards) upon giving.

My comment was more of an appeal to those same naysayers, in a language I felt they could more easily understand. :3

Guys...dont read the 3 pages. It's just loops of the same petty quarrels between different high level groups.
anyway...maybe it should not be considered charity.
that is, all forms of giving, in a perfect world, would be without the expectation of getting something in return.
although by opening this window, you are forcing others to play along by giving without restraints to character. isn't that what the level system is for afterall
