Maybe it is easy to earn that points, but its definitly easier to spend all of them. So everything is just fine with this system.

I personally don't see an issue with the points system as it is right now. We've recently had an influx in new bundles and amazing sales (Amazon bundles come to mind) the past few weeks, which naturally means more giveaways being made and more points given out to all. When the bundles and sales slow down, the points will too.

Not again the same thread...
I'm starting to believe that the aliens are doing this on purpose!

Those with a lot of games, especially from recent bundles / sales probably have difficulty spending 300 points at this rate of regeneration. However, I'm pretty sure those who can't afford to buy the games / miss out on sales don't find that points are regenerating fast enough. So yeah, it's fine at the moment.

Meh, you'll come to enjoy being able to enter for games you like whenever you spot them. If the low chances at winning are what's bugging you, you could stalk sg for some 1hr giveaways, or aim for private ones found all over the place. Higher contributor values also tend to help, but don't get any crazy ideas like trying to game the system. :) Good luck.

I always find myself above 250+ maybe that is because I rarely enter public giveaways anymore...

Sounds like you've got it all figured out. Go start a giveaway site and let us know how it works out.

I would love it to be less points just to see the QQ.

Honestly, I barely use my points because I only spend it on games I want, but every now and then there is an influx of these games and I have to remove entries from draws ending later and then re-add when I have enough points. Happens once a fortnight. The current system works, so let us break it.

I don't know if this is discussed or explained somewhere, and if it is i'm sorry, please let me know.
But with this system in SteamGifts, I can have 300p in a couple of hours. This ability makes no need for this point thing at all.
So, wouldn't it be better if points are given for example 1% of the price instead of 5% ? So people would tend to spend points only for the games they really want.
