Hello SteamGifters, It's my 12-year anniversary on Steam today and tomorrow it's my 12th cake day on SteamGifts.
I created my Steam account just to activate one of the first HB Indie Bundles, but didn't use it actively up until the summer of 2014 when I found out about the Steam Summer (Flash) Sales, trading gifts and the existence of CS:GO.
Most likely same goes for SteamGifts or I started to use it little bit later, I see that my first giveaway was created in April 2015.
Even though I wasn't the most active member, I still opened the site daily and checked out if there are any interesting discussions, recommendations, new bundles (yes I use SG for checking out if there are new bundles, thank you sensualshakti).
In the past of course I opened it to enter giveaways, but after a while I realized that I don't play the random games I win, so I stopped entering them and only joined giveaways for games that I would play.
One of my favorite things here were the puzzle giveaways. I have solved many and have created a few on ItsTooHard as well.
Because of the amazing feedback that I got on my university graduation project (EasyGamePrice) thread, I decided to give back to the SG community and created ItsTooHard alternative, 2Solve.Me.
I know it's not perfect, I created it in relative short time, but it's good enough and I keep it running for the people here that keep using it.
Another favorite thing on SG for me was the trading forum, which in the past was part of SteamGifts, and nowadays as separate site, SteamTrades.
I am not active trader now, don't have the time or the energy, but in High School and University I was trading all the time.
Well besides the trading, the other favorite thing was chatting with the people when trading.
Thanks to SteamGifts/Trades I met lot of amazing people, with two of them I became close friends, and even though we are from different countries, I met them in person, had lot of fun and created great memories.
It's crazy to think that I started using SG when I was in High School (18) and now I am "high functional" 9-5 working adult (almost 28).
Thank you to all members, discussions creators, bundles threads makers, giveaways creators, to all people bringing positive energy in the comments and big thanks to CG for creating an amazing site with amazing community.
To celebrate this special day, I created a giveaway train.
If anyone wants to chat, I am always happy to meet new people, you can add me on steam. I have interests in many different areas so I am sure we can find common things to talk about.
Also I recently created twitter/X account (@MickyTheDev), I am doing giveaway there at the moment as well.
Edit:
If there is someone that I have blacklisted, I am sorry, please message me and I will remove it. If there is a option I would like to clear all of my blacklist.
Edit 2:
Thank you all for the amazing comments, you made my day/week so much better. Not to bump the thread anymore, since the giveaways ended, I won't reply to the newer comments, however want to say thank you as well, I read the comments, don't worry :)
