As we know from 12-Feb to 2-March 2015 a event known as "Year Beast Brawl" was going on steam. Many of us got very good items including duplicates and as our inventory space is fixed (If you don't want to buy armory ex pander) we can give our duplicates to somebody (If you are tiered of trying trade and get scammed). I think we should have a DOTA 2 item giveaways too on this site.

I personally have 700+ Items now. Is there is a way?

It would be great if you justify your answer. Thank you!

*Lets make this little bit easier. Justify your answer by leaving comment below and add me**. The person whose comment will be justifying will receive a personal DOTA 2 gift (May be any thing u don't have) from me.

**You should be DOTA 2 player

NO. First of all, because it is not fair for people who don't play that game.
There are many other resons, but I see no need to list them all.

Watch here http://blog.dota2.com/. Dota 2 got 11,073,654 unique players last month. Even 1 concurrent 1M participating players were there. So whats the point in saying "who don't play". If the data is wrong?

Let's not forget that was during the Year Beast event and you if you know Dota 2 players you know they love their free items!
Also if you want to do a giveaway there is no need to make a new site for it just make a Google Form page and use that, say on the forum what items you giveaway and what requirements are needed for them to be able to enter!

No. Because its seems unfair for steam player that not play dota2.
And I think SG is for steam community. but not for dota2 community

The problem with it would be that items don't currently have a set value, and so they couldn't add to contributor value or have a set amount of points to enter. Also they aren't activated to an account, so people could trade or sell the items rather than using them and it would be impossible to check.

I would say that it is best to host item giveaways as a special forum thread or within a Steam group, Steamgifts should be primarily for Steam game giveaways.

No. Bad idea.

You just said yourself you have over 700+ DOTA2 items. Compare that to how many games you have in your inventory, what do you think the majority of the site will now be taken over with. Now multiply your 700+ with all the other SG contributors, we're probably in the hundred thousands of DOTA2/CS:GO items. Not to mention all the extra support and infrastructure that those giveaways will create.

Now imagine someone like me who doesn't play or care about DOTA2 or CS:GO items, I come on the site and see nothing but DOTA2/CS:GO items. I filter them out and see a mass decline in game giveaways. All the group recruitment and Let's Play is centred around CS:GO and DOTA2.

The better idea would just to be create a swap thread. It has been mentioned but this isn't a DOTA2/CS:GO community, it's a steam one. It opens Pandora's box, I mean should we then open it up to TF2 items as well? Ok that seems reasonable. Then what about card trading? Background trading? Emoji trading?

If you have some duplicate set I can have some
No. How can we assign points to them when we enter?? besides you can just make a thread for easier process of giving away game items.

So last i think answer is no. Rather then we should open swap thread or new website.
