I mean, I keep hiding them 1 by 1... if we could just have the option to do so, it would be very appreciated ^^ !

I'm interested in this also. I'm more for hiding 5p or lower titles, I dont think I've found one yet that interested me. And Im not here to collect games.
I use ESGST, not sure it can do that while doing a normal browse hiding my 4000+ hidden titles.

Drop down menu to the right of "Account" in the top right, "My Stats" should be in there if you scroll down I believe.

I believe you can download a script that will show who users are that block you but I don't bother with that kinda stuff so couldn't give you names or anything!

Yeah, I don't use scripts either, but there's no point advising someone (OP) something if it's not built into the site by default

Yeah there is, many people on here use it and other scripts, as do I. I'm sure you could do a quick search of the forums and find one for the blacklist thing.

Oh, yeah.
But it does at least allow you to see if you are blacklisted and by how many people.

I won 9 games out of 32 with 5 points or below.
From this 9 i liked 6 games, 1 was ok, 1 was not good because of a horrid translation and 1 turned out to be really awefull.

I would say there are good games in the lower price range as well.

Personally i have a fable for small and short games that may influence my opinion.
Of course haven hidden almost anything garbage like all ready helps to not get drownded by them, that may influence my opinion even further.

Could be... I grew up before Atari. Did it and done it in some ways. I'd rather not play (or win) something that I dont enjoy. Not saying theres gems out there, but the constant shovelware is an avalanche.

=2, rather, unless the OP wants to expand upon their listed restrictions.

The filters pretty much handle any core considerations you might wish for, so once you get things set the way you want and bookmark your search(es), the fact that an advanced search interface doesn't exist ends up being nonconsequential. Though it's certainly a pity that you still [as far as I'm aware] can't blend the sort-by-new and filter-to-wishlist searches.

oh ya he did say any above 1, another person said 5.
there really should be advanced search options seeing how this question is asked some what often and we the contributors have to research how to filter search results. not to sound to entitled(Internets new favorite word) but every other website has adv search options why cant this one have them too.
lol i cant bookmark 10 different search address's for SG, i gotta save room in that folder for all the porn websites featuring lesbian midget Asian schoolgirls wrestling in strawberry's n cream.

i've just been filtering for wishlist for years. the cons is i'm probably missing on games cause there are some i used to learn about and be interested in when they'd show up here in sg

I've found a few good games that were ~$1 and I've seen some games that were priced over $5 that had horrible reviews. So I'd much rather have the option to filter games based on their Steam review rating. A bad game will always be bad, regardless of the price.

With sg itself you can not filter for steam review but for metascore:

If I have that much money I could hire someone to hide all the games for me, while I‘m swimming in my money bin

They should include such an option if SteamGifts detects that you own Fortix. It was a tradition of sorts from years ago on SteamGifts that you cannot buy that game for yourself, you have to win it. And it cost 1$. And it's a nice game.

I simply browse by wishlist only. IMHO that's the best way to avoid $1 crap or in fact anything that you're not interested in.

and don't mind the BL thing, that's just how it is. I was away from SG for like a year and got BLd in that time :D At least BLs are bidirectional now. and I just WLd you :)

I usually start with my wishlist and then browse if I have time to kill. it's sometimes fun to learn what crazy garbage is out there.

You don't have to hide them 1 by 1. If you have ESGST installed, enable the script "Multi Manager" and also "Endless scroll".
Then, change the end of this url to the max points you wanna hide (For example 4, it will show all giveaways between 1 and 4P): https://www.steamgifts.com/giveaways/search?q=&point_max=4
And scroll to the bottom of the page, or the max your browser can load
After that, click on the gear that will appear, go to the "Games" section and enable it. There, select "All" and click on hide. It will hide all the games that are being given away that are worth a max of 4 points.
Do that and you will have hid permanently a lot of low-cost giveaways. Repeat it once a week if you wish and good luck!
