Tsundere, the emails!

I agree!

Jesus O.o
I saw your giveaways, didn't enter because I don't own the base game.

Oh god. The suspension count per day would exceed the amount of retarded customers I get at my job. No bueno.

I had to do this a few times as well....

I am guilty of winning a giveaway like 8 months ago that was DLC for a game.(It didn't say DLC nor did it sound like DLC...)

But things that say DLC/look like dlc the person really shouldn't have any excuse...

From the look of it, one of the users was lucky enough to win both!

I entered giveaways for Borderlands 2 DLC (That Torgue one) without owning the game on Steam. It was kind of a complicated situation on my part - I actually did have a physical copy of the game, but I forgot to activate the key before I went home for winter break. So basically, I entered the giveaways, then got my flatmate to email the key to me the next day.

But yes, I am quite annoyed with the situation. I sent in a support ticket to make Anno 2070 DLCs only enter-able for those with the base game back in June, I think. But it still hasn't gotten fixed yet.

BTW, in the picture, you said you sent the gift to someone you asked a reroll on :P

I suggest a three day suspension for first offense, one month for second, perm for third.

I almos entered you giveaways, too.

It does not say DLC on the store page for the package, either (I admit, you can already see the "DLC" in the small preview of the content).
You have to view the individual contents to see the requirements.

Fixing the system would be better. Less re-rolling from support

nice how you end up with HOLES in the image. that could have interesting possibilities.

Wow that's a horrible result. You even wrote in your description that you would reroll if the entrants did not own the base game. >.<

I don't understand :slow:

I am suprised the system actually shows DLC giveaways for games not owned. A few times I have opened one by accident, it has told me I don't own the base game, so why show at all? Still there have been a few times it would allow me to enter if I hadn't remembered to check first.

Agreed. A waste of the gifter's time and the time of the support team.

Hang 'em high...

I always check with Steam store to make sure it's not a DLC if I'm not sure, but it helps if you say so in the description. I'm guessing you did, and they didn't care?

Quite sad... but to be honest I didn't expect anything different... I guess stupid people will be stupid. -.-
And like Raiden said, if they started suspending the many MANY people who enter for DLC without owning the base game, support probably won't get a break from having to dish out suspensions and then having to hear from the people whining about it. :/
(Secretly crosses fingers that it'll re-roll in me.)

I agree.

Many people cannot read, so checking if they have the base game on steam would be much more harder. They only want to press the green button.

So yes, I agree with OP statement.

Agreed.

I'm famous!

You sent one gift then understood it

i dont think so... Ofc you should ask the winner if he knows that was a DLC, but some people have non activated keys and such for some games (since they dont wanna play it yet and a trade offer can arise) and will activate the game if they won the DLC.
So, enter a GW for a DLC isnt a offense per se, if you dont redeem it, its a different matter

Agreed. I also think that suspension should last longer in general.
