Sorry, I don't pay that much attention to the general feel of things on the forums. I'm just noticing a lot more people are saying this site is a scam lately. Which intrigues me, why is this site a scam?

Is it because people got "scammed" out of games they felt entitled to winning before the end of a giveaway? Did someone not gift the game you were supposed to win? Do you have actual information and data to back these claims?

Because if you do, I'd be interested in hearing them. I want to know what your losses are. Because hey, if this is a scam, there's bound to be losses. Somehow I'm failing to connect anyone losing anything over a bunch of free-to-enter-no-stakes-giveaways.

No, not whining. I've won 5 giveaways on this site myself. 2 of which were forum giveaways. Haven't done any giveaways myself, but I'm planning to do so to give back to this site soon.

For something to be a scam you must lose something. They are just stupid.

maybe they think it's a scam because we want them to contribute to get their odds higher ?
and they think they will never win anything without contributing
but some of them think they won't win even after contributing those are the problems.

Can't you people just answer him? It's just a joke for people who complain for not winning after XXX entries.

It's just a joke (mainly) told to the people who moan about not winning. There's also the jokes about only winning if you are a admin's alt account. And the (old) one about needing SG premium to win stuff.

I know that the premium one was squashed by the support staff when they started to get swamped with questions on how to get premium.

its a scam because I still haven't received my copy of dynamite jack from Ishmaeel even though he marked it as sent and received forever ago...

I go through all the trouble of making a listing for something I want, randomly selecting from among the volunteers and am expected to lose a game for my efforts? SCAM

People are stupid, that's the only real reason. It only takes one stupid person to create multiple complaints.

Some come here and think they choose a game, then SteamGifts purchases it and gives it away. Some people blame it on language barrier, but regardless you'd have to be extremely spoiled or extremely stupid to think it actually worked like that. Then those people complain when they're told they have to buy and giveaway the games and the people who won their giveaway complain that they never received the game. Now you have at least two people who are complaining that the site is a "scam" all because of one person's initial stupidity.

The reason it's more common is simply due to the fact that SteamGifts is always gaining more members and the more people here, the more chances that some of them are going to be stupid!
