so,i won Men of War: Assault Squad - DLC Pack,i synced my SG profile,but still,the SG addon doesnt filter out the DCL,so it 'sees' like i dont have the DLC.
Then,since its not filtered out,its picked off by script clicks.
Why isnt it registered?
How to fix it?

Filter never filters out DLC's. It's annoying.

So,what do you suggest.
I got a simple coordinate mouse click emulator,mostly i leave it when im away and it click on first giveaways that meet given criteria.
Now,there's a shitload of assault squad DLCs,so it's been picking them often.

Do i ask for a giveaway cancelation,so it doesnt give it to me again?If so,how?
Or do i just pass it to other guy via another giveaway/or steam?

I know a safe bet would be to drop the emulator thingy,but i dont want to :)

Soo, you're saying you're cheating? And you want our help so that you can continue cheating?

actually,i read it earlier here that scripts are allowed.
Unless they arent?in that case i missunderstood.

And another part of that would be that i'm not even using some script to check for win chance,time,points,etc,etc,i just have an mouse emulator that clicks the title,then clicks the 'enter' button.
It sorts the entries based on sg+ filter that i set up.
I don't even see it as an advantage,i've got the points,i'm spending them.Or i could stack them and spend them all at once.Same thing.

Sometimes I think "I should make more public giveaways". Then I read the forums...

cc.
So,usage of SG+ is ok,but a tad advanced mechanic above it is automatically a cheating...
A bit hypocritic?
There are a lot of users who don't know about SG+,and they dont use it.
Does the user who uses SG+ looks like a cheater to them,since he can apply advanced filter,set minimal win percentage,donation and stuff?Sure he does.
And then a SG+ user is gonna say "dude,u got the SG+ script available here,its not cheating"
Well,emulators are also available.Or other script,provided there is a base knowledge to create them.
plus,automating the process is not forbidden.
It would be a cheating if someone could add to himself a 300 points out of thin air.Or if someone could fix the PRNG so he wins the giveaway.

I think he refers to the matter that you use an automatic system to enter all giveaways for stuff that you don't already have, rather than just enter the ones that you really want.

Exactly this. At least when it's a human entering the giveaway I can think that the other person is saying "Hey, this would be fun to play! I'll enter, hope I win!".

Not just a bot checking: Exists on Account? No. Points Available? Yes. Enter Giveaway. Bleep Bloop.

You do whatever you want to do, I'm not telling you to stop nor was I in my first post.

It's just the thought that public giveaways are becoming so impersonal and thankless that people are going to just setup bots to enter for them now?

Yeh I think I'll stick to my groups...

SG+ makes using the site easier and more enjoyable. Your dodgy script allows you to avoid using the site, avoid contributing, but still take from it. That resembles a parasitic organism, the leech. That's about as low as you can go.

I'm surprised to even see you in the forum................................................oh wait, you want more from us now.

Yeh, it was bad enough thinking that most leech accounts couldn't be bothered to ever comment on the forums/thank for giveaways/contribute; I figured they at least have to manually enter for their giveaways.

Now that I know the leeches are just botting the site I think I'm done with Public Giveaways entirely.

I know exactly what you mean, it's gotten so ridiculous since the early days. I gave up with public giveaways a long time ago.

Well,even when i was doing it myself,i still avoided to say thanks and stuff.
Looked like spam that no one reads to me.

And as far as leach goes,i contributed too,and i'll do it again,once i'm in position to do so.

The reason that you don't write thanks is because you think no one reads it?

You and me are very different people. That mindset pollutes this community.

Thanks for your great contributions to the site!

It doesn't recognize that you have them. Everyone who already has the DLCs can still enter the giveaways...just put them in ignore list manually, if you use SG+

This works.
I read the part "SteamGifts Filter must be disabled to use SteamGifts Plus Library Filtering." so i thought it reffers to the manuall filter.

Many thanks!

Acutally, it still works if Steamgifts filter is on and it's much faster since the games you have are filtered-out server-side. It cuts down on bandwidth costs for cg too.
