HWY WOULD YOO DO THIS?!?!?!

I like them. If you've donated that much money you're in the small handful of people that are really what's driven this site to see as much success as it has.

Sure they probably don't "need" to win giveaways as much as some, but if you're giving that much money you deserve a small perk.
And considering they've made dozens of people happy, having a couple extra chances to win isn't a big deal.

"If you would prefer to limit this giveaway to users that have contributed a certain value in gifts to our community, please enter the amount above. Please note, the maximum amount you can enter above is twice the amount of your gifts contributed. Maximum allowed for your account, $1,157.32."

Fuck you, I do what I want :D

Also, OP, if you actually said thank you more than 3.96% of the time when you enter giveaways I might actually care about what you think. Contribute something to the community that's more substantial than this whining. In fact, it's SteamGifts users like this that are the reason why I only make contributor giveaways anymore. I've no interest in giving away games to people who'll never give back to the community.

No free gum for you then.

Shhhhh... Calm down, Zoni's gonna make it all better...

I'll tell ya hwat

Think of the contributor gifts as another version of group gifts. Instead of "you and I are in the same cool club, would you like some pie" it's more like "you and I have both spent too much time and money here, would you like some quiche?"

This thread has no right to exist.

What I hate more is trying to enter a contributor giveaway that requires $10.00 and you've only contributed $9.99 . So close yet so far. They should start selling games for an even $10 instead of having .99 cents at the end of it. then I wouldn't have some $1.91 left over on a prepaid card that I don't know what to do with.

Dude, I have no job, I'm paying off debt out of my own pocket, and yet I managed to give away Portal 2.

How? Easy. Cut out a box of pringles/cigs/someuseless thing every shopping trip and within 5-6 shopping trips, you'll have 20 bucks.

I'm honestly surprised the thread hasn't been closed yet.

It's not hard to give back. Gifting games just feels good. Give it a shot sometime, you might enjoy it.

Thread has more comments than you made. Say "thanks" in a while.

Most of them are barely even $10 lol. What an exaggeration Xp Even if there were a lot, the people who enter then deserve that privilege.

1.Don't buy overpriced, bad games like mw3.

2.Get a job.

3.Stop complaining like you're commited to win.

You are like a homeless person that recieves a penny and says "Well sir, i think that's very unfair, you give me a penny but you give more for your wife!"

hahaha, hwy a story mark

Hwy not?

Keep your mouth shut kid.

Leechers gonna leech

because of higher chance to win for contributors. and even if i make 0.01 contributor u cant enter lol :) don't complain

It's their games and their choice.

HWY HWY HWY! OH LORD HWY HWOULD YOU DO THIS TO US?

Sorry about this, it just seemed really odd to me. My reason for not giving away is was kind of wrong. I don't giveaway because I'm poor I don't giveaway (and buy on Steam) games because for me it's pretty hard to get my money onto Steam, as 16 year old teenager. Maybe someone can explain it to me, just so I'm aware at how should I do it. At this age I can't really get a job, so money is a problem though still. And now I apologize to everyone and I thank everyone in one go for giving away games, especially MoneyHypeMike who is extremely generous and everyone should join his Steam group. Last but not least I want to apologize if there are any grammar mistakes, because I live in Hungary my native language is not English.
