Thank you.. as i said, i have a lot of keys that i am scared to GA in other groups or public because i don't know if the keys still valid or not :(
And i couldn't find any similar groups like that where i can make GA!
Anmd those keys are mostly leftovers that i forgot about it.
Yesterday i was checking those sites (HB, Fanatical, IndieGala) and found that i have a lot of unredeemed keys. As they're old bundles i don't know if they're still valid.

Thanks for the group. I'll take a look if I have any suspicious keys.

Joined. I found a trove of unredeemed Fanatical keys recently and starting making GAs but 4 out of 5 were not good anymore.
Made me feel so bad, I just stopped making GAs and activated the next 3 from the same bundles for myself... and they all worked.
It's just too unpredictable.

use whitelist, set higher levels if it's huge. and ask for colaboration (so you'll also get ready-to-go comments like "i agree to delete this!"), if anything wrong just ask Support for deletion.
doing wider, more "public" gibs can led you feel some unfairness... and make you stop gibbing away!

I hate to disappoint my blueies but that's the way I'll go most likely. There are a few groups now that deal with that kind of issues but a lot of the users I've checked in those groups seem to be only after big numbers on their Steam page. Oh well.

This is a great idea like "Delete giveaway if key doesn't work..." or the Lootboy groups.
I think it's needed that you clearly specify that members of this group must allow the deletion of the giveaway, or be expelled from it. Mods can't delete a finished giveaway without the express permission of the winner(s). I'm not sure if this is true by the nature of these groups, hopefully a mod can be reached and clear that for everyone (and put the answer in the description as well, please!)
Also, someone (you, an admin/assistant in the group?) should keep a list of SG members expelled from the group, as it's known that after a while, they try to enter again, trying to be unnoticed.

I got about a hundred old keys, some from 2014. I'm still getting used to this site and giveaways but I wouldn't mind giving away a bunch of these keys.
I do wonder, is it common for bundle keys to not work anymore? I have my biggest doubts about the validity of some "editions" (/sub/xyz URL on Steam) or games that had some sort of re-release during the years but most, if not all, of these games are still on Steam. Can a publisher really let keys expire?

I've noticed for some old keys that are not activated in a proper mainframe (like 1 yr, some more some less) the publishers deactivate the keys themselves. And since there is no notice, you can't say if the key is still valid or no.
As you can see in my GA's i've noted the bundle the keys are redeemed from.
Even if the key is not valid, support told me that they're obliged for 60 days to keep the support for it.
I've recently gave the key for Brothers-The tale of 2 sons, and even there's new remastered version out, the key was OK.

Joined the group since I often have keys that I'm uncertain if they still work or not, I've already been using the lootboy and "delete GA if key doesn't work" groups for this but it helps having another one to add to it to increase the reach.
Thanks for the service.

This might be one of the oldest keys I have. Really looking forward to finding out if it still works :)

Old Bundle Keys Group
If you have an old bundle key in a backlog and you don't know what to do with it and you don't know if the key after so many years is OK, please share it. As the group name says, no one can say if the key is still valid or no.
If the key isn't valid, user cannot ask for the refund and the creator of the giveaway can delete the giveaway.
Please post the keys from the oldie bundles up to 2023, as the recent one's have still valid keys. But you can still post any of the keys you have..no rule about it.
You can join for free here:
https://steamcommunity.com/groups/bundleoldies
There's also a few giveaway active by me.
As i have more than 1,000 unused keys in the bundles library, some even from 2017 that i've forget about it, i will be posting inside the group on a weekly basis at least 10 of them.
So, come join, come ya'all :)
