Happy cake day, Amano!
Ich wünsch dir was. Hab die alten (guten) Tage hier leider nie kennengelernt. Du hast am Ende die Bot-Nutzer vergessen, denen man hinterherlaufen muss, damit sie sich zumindest einmal manuell in der Woche einloggen und ihre Gewinne einlösen.
Viel Glück, sodass zumindest Yakuza in guten Händen endet!

Happy cakeday!
I guess this site "helped" to explode a lot of steam library. This site is the biggest advertising for bundle sites.
I like the way you talk about the SG people of nowadays ^^
At least you have bigger chances of getting a "thanks" in private GA.

Most of my giveaways have been public ones and I feel as thought I've never really had any big problems. Sorry if that's been an experience for you, though. I do my best to make sure that those I give to and receive from have a good experience, so hopefully that's me doing my small part to make the experience of this site better.

Happy Cake Day Amano!
I haven't been around for so long but I got to experience a variety of very "special" users first hand. It led me to stop doing giveaways below level 5 and I actually hate that. Another user posted in a similar thread that all of us were new here once and if I imagine I was a Level 0-user today and was greeted with a flood of 1P-shovelware-giveaways on the frontpage I would probably turn and run. So I stopped doing that and dump these keys in the orphan thread. But when we all stop doing public giveaways it will be the inevitable death of SG.

happyssimo cakeday, Allemano.
sometimes people, here as IRL, don't shows their face appreciating... but you can see it, very clear, when there's a complaint, a rant.
i really hope you'll find your way to let us still enjoy your presence here.
thanks for all the fish!

Edit: I am not in a bad mood, I am really not :D I even bought Yakuza 0 as a giveaway to celebrate my half decade :)
So, today is my 5th cakeday. I registered on this site on August 15th, 2013. 5 years ago. Time flies.
At first, i was totally overwhelmed and it did take some time to figure out how this site works. I had way less money then, didn't know about bundles and it took really long to climb the ranks. Leveling up felt like an achievment.
Oh boy, how did that all change!
Now I am earning a decent wage, am an expert deal and bundle hunter, my library exploded and collecting games has become a habit. A kinda meta-game in itself.
Leveling up means nothing anymore because there are hardly any games left for me to enter.
My experience with SG in those years? Well.. Meh. The site changed. Shovelware or however you want to call it floods the site. It's logical, because in this SG is a mirror of the current state of PC gaming in general and Steam in particular.
Quality of SG users has also declined. There are still a lot of jewels around but it is harder to find them in the puddle of mudd. There, I said it. And this saddens me. Anyone still around who still remembers the OddLama and his giving sprees?
Well, here is an obligatory giveaway which is very likely to end up in the hands of a leecher with many not activated games who only does region locked giveaways, can't say Thank you and will insult me when I don't send the key within minutes after his win and who will resell the key and claim I never send it.
Public giveaways nowadays. Only for masochistic people.
Edit:
SG community never ceases to amaze me, not even on my cakeday ;) (Pictured comment was posted on my Steam profile mere minutes after this thread went live. Must be an alt account)
Edit:
I wanted to give feedback if the winner was of the category I cynically described, but I can't give this feedback without calling him out, sooo...
Edit:
Unfortunately I had to delete the giveaway :( I bought the key from Voidu and the store page didn't mention a region lock because I bought the key with a european IP-address. But if you visit the page from outside of the EU, you get a warning regarding region lock. Which I could not see. Duh. So my key is EU only and I only found out about this after the original and the re-rolled winner both could not activate the key :(
Edit:
Here is a new giveaway for all your troubles with the old one, this time it should really be a ROW version.
