Suggestions - Remove games you won as long as you giveaway the same game

Open

I know we are supposed to keep all games that we won in the Steam library, to make sure no one use multiple accounts to join the same giveaway. That's fair I got no complaint. But there could be an exception for it.

I remember when I first joined I don't really care about the Quality but Quantity. And now as I was looking at my Steam library I got so annoyed, like there are trash in the house and I still need to keep it forever. Afterall I don't want my account got suspended.

I wish there is a option for people like me, can remove their games from the library as long as they create a new giveaway of the same game they won.

You can hide the game on steam and never see it again, if you don't actively search for it.

I think we've all been there but the solution you propose might create a problem with people giving away games they won to gain CV, thus removing the issue of needing to have their wins activated.

Oh no, I am not talking about canceling the old giveaways. And the people who create the original giveaways definitely should keep their CV, they are not in the picture here.
The point is the winner could pay back to the community in order to remove their winning history (then they can do whatever they want)

What Fluffster means is that people would exploit this. They'd just keep the same key they won and give it away again on here. You might not be able to prove that they hadn't activated and deleted.

You can contact the creator and ask them to delete the giveway. You'd probably want to work something out, like give them a key for the same game or one of similar value. Then post a comment in the GA saying you agree to delete it, and have them create a support ticket to remove.

Just mark the games as hidden in your library, that would work a lot easier lol.
