So this dude from my Friend list randomly chats me up about my game collection and suddenly gifts me a few games from my wishlist.
I'm like "alright what's your SG name again, least I can do is put you on my whitelist", and he has no idea what I am talking about.
So i say "Well I don't really remember when we met, I just figured it has to be Steamgifts", but no, he never heard about the site.
We spent some time trying to figure out where we know each other from (I'm still pretty sure we added each other after having a very very close 1v1 match in Brawlhalla, but he doesn't seem to remember that at all), and we're still not sure yet.
But he is now a SG user and surely will soon become addicted a casual gifter.

So if you read this: Welcome to the site dude, hope you have a lot of fun :)

I remember discussing SteamGifts with my online friends on Skype (especially the $100 Steam account value requirement), but I don't really consider it "recruitment".
Also, I highly recommend playing Hexcells for anyone who hasn't heard of it yet. It's like a cross between minesweeper and Sudoku.

Burn the casual leeches :D But seriously, he gifted me stuff even without getting CV, so pretty sure he won't be too tempted by the Dark side :D

Then you are right of course :D Though leeches don't really bother me as long as they don't break any rules. That's what the Level System is here for, and I like to think almost all of us started as casual leeches ;)

Unfortunately a leech can be any level on SG for example it can be a level 0 or a level 8 or 9.

For the bulk of my giveaways I use SGTools with amongst other a simple ratio requirement.

And of course I use my blacklist so the worst of the worse SG leeches are weeded out. :3

Yeah, that's pretty lucky, right? :D
And no, I don't think so (unless he just changed it). Right now his profile background is from the game Insurgency.

i do not think i ever have recruited anyone to this site. and personally i was recruited by google xD

nice though, and welcome new random user ^^

We spent some time trying to figure out where we know each other from

this is where i wish they had notes along with the tags. i try to tag people under certain categories to try and help me remb why/where the add came from (examples: "random" "trades" "RLF" "Met In Game") so tagging helps some. but i wish there were a notes are i could type "user was a random add from nowhere" or "user was added from gift sent" =)

That would be a cool feature, although I'm pretty sure I'd be to lazy to use it most of the time :D
But there's so much room for improvements on steam that I think this would be one of the last things they'd add...
Still waiting for the day when I can filter my library by tags instead of only having tags on the store. I mean come on, this can't be sooo hard to implement, right volvo? :P

oh yea, super low priority, and really not all that effective now that i alrdy have 320 users without notes. just something i wish was there since the begging really. and yes OMG, they desperately could use several more sorting options in the client, and that would still be very effective. xD
