Are you guys serious? Why are you picking on him? There are tons of region/country specific giveaway groups out there. Now i don't know what he said in his post, but if he has bullshit rules like "must giveaway a game 7 days after you join, and then once a month forever" then i wouldn't support that, since every leecher groups has that rule.

Yeah, he's basically saying exactly that ("40$ contribution minimum and a giveaway once a month") so there's no reason to pick on him other than enjoying 'provocation'.
But that's the internet I guess...

I'm not too big on 'nation' based giveaway groups myself since I don't like defining people solely on their geographical location and I think it may be a bit unfair towards others. In general I think we all should be nicer and more open to eachother as a friggin specie. Hug trees, poop out rainbows and all that. That being said -
On the other hand, I've seen other groups pop up with the same theme (Russian / Scandinavian for example). Noone bitched about them being racist or brought in petty political crap (correct me if I'm wrong)
Heck, some groups strictly revolve around whos 'popular'. Other groups have these 'suck up to us and we might let you join' threads. Other groups say 'don't even dare asking us how to join'. Is that elitist approach better?
TL;DR - Point is - theres tons of private groups revolving around all sorts of filters. This one is no different. Stop bitching about racism.

Nope, I'm just saying having groups in this community regarding whatever characteristic of yours is a flawed concept which can only lead to elitism, racism and communautarism. Because in the case of steamgifts being part of certain groups grant you privileges, so it's not only in good fun. It's about favorizing and sharing only with your own people.
It's just the total opposite of what I do like about the internet. It's like we are just copying what makes the actual world suck so much.
It's ok to have your own identity, but to reject people because of theirs is something which shouldn't be expected here. Internet is "should be" all about your mind, not your wealth nor your culture or blood.

Because israelies can even put black africans in concentration camps without the world complaining.. They just do it mate. Anyway they're going to be in the middle of a full scale war soon enough. They may need all the help in the free world they can get when this day comes.
I'm disgusted when I see German only "public" servers and get banned because of my French IP, I really am and it's not me only hopefully. So yeah, it chokes me too that it's ok for Israel to act like that.
But well as many here I heard much much more about Jewish sufferings through history than about my own people forced to fight about every French war since 1066, lost almost a quarter of its youth during WW1 and suffered 4 years of constant bombings and occupation during WW2..

What...?
"Because israelies can even put black africans in concentration camps without the world complaining" - what??? Care to explain this nonsense? I don't seem to see any example or something to back this bunch of racist talk up. Sorry if I sound rude, but I honestly don't understand what are you talking about.
"Disgusted when I see German only servers" - Yeah, you might not like this idea, but it's completely reasonable to create such servers.
It's only racist if you're the kind of people who try too hard to find racism, even when it's not there.
If some people are living in Germany, then it means they're people with a common factor.
Wouldn't you perfer your friends had common factors with you?
There are different hypes and fields of interest in different areas in the world, so if you want to play with people who've got common interests with you (like, lets say, a local band you like, or whatever) then the chances you'll find such people are so much higher with people in your region.
Also, they might be bad with English and rather speak German or something simple and innocent as that.
Yeah, it annoys me too when I get banned from a region-blocked server, but it's entirely understandable why are such servers being created, and it's not out of racism (atleast... most of the times :P).
"Heard much more about Jewish sufferings than about my own people's sufferings" - I don't really know what to say here. I don't know of any country that's never had a rough part in it's history. Your people might have lots of these, and so do the Jews. I'd explain further but what else is there to say? I find this part of your comment completely unecessary. But that might be just me.
P.S - Also, sorry about my English.
P.S 2 - And all that's in good spirit, it's not a fight or something. Just having a discussion here.
P.S 3 - If I said something stupid, please let me know & explain. I'm tired atm so I'm not 100% focused and I didn't actually re-read it before posting. I'll do that later.
inb4 tl;dr
