Regarding Indie Royale & Humble Indie Bundle Keys

Well, it is still okay if you are giving out the whole bundle as a gift.

It also clearly states in SG rules, that you are not allowed to give out individual keys from the bundles.

But thanks.

They're giving mixed signals now :/ Either the bundle guys care or they don't >_<

Really, I think we should respect the fact that they're doing this for us. They're offering tons of games to us for next to nothing, and in the case of Humble Bundles (not sure about IndieRoyales) about a third or more is going to charity. Really, they're doing us a great service, and people need to stop abusing that.

Simple: you should only give these games if you did not play them, nor plans to play them. If you do want to play and give, buy it twice :) If you are a cheap bastard, buy it twice paying half the value that you were planning (I know that Indie Royale does not work like that).

Wouldn't this be fairly obvious in the first place?

In the e-mail he probably means keys to your personal key page (e. g. http://www.indieroyale.com/bundle/key/XXXXXXXXXXXX), thus using the word "sharing". If you share the URL of your key page, everybody can download the DRM-free games. But you can't share a Steam key, since it's useless once it's activated. The Indie Royale guys are not against giving a Steam key of a game to a friend. See this tweet.

I think that both the Indie Royale guys and the Humble Bundle guys are not against giving away extra keys, since "extra" means that you either already have the game or you are not going to play it (in both cases only one person plays the bought game).
