Hey TMMIMITW,
you can not join. About a month ago your account came to my attention in connection with several other suspicious accounts. Because of that, I will not accept you to any groups I am admin of.
This might be a false positive, but I will not take the risk.

what suspicious activities?
i never joined any other steam group and never traded games before so there is no chance of me scamming anyone.
the only online presence related to gaming for me is on the Fanatical discord server and i am known there if you wanna ask the mods about me.
can i speak to you privately on discord or steam? because the only other group i applied to here a month ago said something similar to me and i need to know what's going on, if it's not bothersome of course, it's just weird to me.
Comment has been collapsed.
Sorry that it is weird to you.
I have not mentioned scamming in any way.
I found a suspicious account on Steamgifts, followed up on it and found your account that way. Your account as well as the others set off red flags for me. If I flag someone that way, the accounts often, not always, become rule breakers on SG later on. I am not saying you will do that, but I am not willing to take that risk in UL7.

You got someone speaking for you. Send you a friend request on Steam to invite you manually.

Hey
My total of Wins in general have reached 8. I will now be exiting the steam group. I have exited all group GAs , I had entered for.
I had done 2 GAs in the group. Hope it will count for my ratio until whenever Im financially sound and decide to join the group again as a gifter.
Thanks for the chance, glad to have won at least 2 GAs :)
Comment has been collapsed.
Hey,
thanks for thinking ahead and doing all these steps :D
Those 2 GAs should count when/if you come back. Always keep in mind that RL comes first.

it doesnt let me cuz i requested to join right when my account was made before I know the rules

Hey funnyduck99,
you were told to read the rules, before you requested to join on Steam. You ignored that.
You are not welcome in UL7, because of that and you trying to get into other groups, irgnoring their rules & requirements, as well as not following basic SG rules.
For starters, you can activate all your wins.
Comment has been collapsed.
ok and for the record I wasnt ignoring I just made a mistake. And I did activate all wins and no need to be so hostile I just made a mistake thats all.
Comment has been collapsed.
Seems you did not activate all your wins: https://www.sgtools.info/nonactivated/funnyduck99

i did i deleted it from my account cuz it was garbage and I wanted to clean my account of all asset flips and shovelware
Comment has been collapsed.
In this case it was a promotional giveaway so it might not reflect on you as badly as it normally would but generally speaking many people here would say that's disrespectful to the giveaway creator who paid good money for that game only for you to not play it and then delete it because it clutters up your virtual library.
They'd also point out that nobody forced you to enter that giveaway in the first place and that it's your responsibility to check out the games you wanna enter first.
and I wanted to clean my account of all asset flips and shovelware
Yeah... you can't do that.
In case you ever permanently quit using SteamGifts you can delete all the games you want from your account but as long you're using this site everything you win has to stay there.
Edit: But on an unrelated sidenot it's refreshing to see you're having fun with Factorio. You're honoring that direct gift as it should be, young Padawan 😅
Comment has been collapsed.
oh ok i checked rules and never saw that I couldnt delete games sorry. And good point I barely join giveaways anymore unless its a game I really want. Sorry it wasn't my intent to win giveaways not to play, Moviequest ended up not really even being a game and there was just nothing to do on it for me and I do feel bad about it. Other games I been given I will try my best to complete, I have some games I been given that I havent gotten to yet but will play as soon as I beat games I am currently playing.
Comment has been collapsed.
Yeah... most people will more or less understand because when we were new here almost everybody won a few games they weren't particularly interested in just because the rush of winning something is quite enjoyable.
You can restore that missing game via the Steam Support section. Just scroll to the game in question an click It's not there and it's pretty much self explanatory from there.
Yeah, some parts of the FaQ are quite badly phrased while other are intentionally vague to avoid troublemakers finding loopholes.
For example I personally find the term Guidelines confusing since those are also mandatory rules and not suggestions.
Comment has been collapsed.
ok thanks I will do that. Yeah when I had just joined steamgifts I joined as many giveaways as I could and also attempted joining this steam group right away cuz oppenh4imer ad sent me the link with no context so I tried joining before I new any rules. Oh well I guess I wont be allowed in for that but my day will go on.
Comment has been collapsed.
Just keep using the site, learn the ins and outs, get to know people on the forums and engage with topics like about games you find interesting.
Many people get bored of SG sooner or later when they realize it's quite hard to win the latest Cyberpunk 2077 or God of War Ragnarök every month but those who stay usually do so for the community aspect.
And maybe if you're still here in 6 months you can manage to set up a PayPal account and buy some bundles yourself and share the leftovers you're not interested in if you feel like it.
But if you're for example too young or live in a country where PayPal doesn't operate there's loads of other ways to contribute to the community like for example that guy / gal who recently took over mainaining the Epic thread.
People here love it when people give back or engage with the Community so I'm sure you'll be fine... and then they might reconsider.
Comment has been collapsed.
yeah I want to give back someday but right now I am in college and really dont have the money but I want to once I do

A non activation on your account will disqualify you from most groups.

Hello there, I want to thank all gifters for the opportunity to win some GA. But it appear that some of them try to enter those GA even if they have won 1k GA.
If a moderator could administrate a bit. For example in this GA https://www.steamgifts.com/giveaway/YC0yJ/cyberpunk-2077/entries you could check some of them are gifters or leecher.
Thank you
Comment has been collapsed.
And now... to completely destroy your faith in humanity use the DoYouEvenPlayBro script to check how many of their 1000+ wins have been played.
It's so crazy it would be funny if it wasn't so sad 😅
Comment has been collapsed.
Yeah... we all have backlogs. When you buy a game yourself or it's a gifts from family or (real life) friends you're free to play it at your own leisure and it's nobodies business since you paid for it yourself.
But when you win a giveaway (for a semi decent game) you enter an obligation to honor that game and not have it collect dust in your library for a decade or farm it for trading cards never to look at it again.
A game like Cyberpunk 2077 or God of War Ragnarök is valuable now but in lets say 7 years it loses the vast majority of it's value and you'll be able to pick it up for a fiver.
So if you for example don't have a PC capable of running it and also can't afford one in the foreseeable future - or you know you'll be busy most of the next 2 years writing your master thesis - maybe that shiny, new God of War Ragnarök giveaway just isn't for you and it's a real POS move to enter regardless.
Comment has been collapsed.
woah you are correct, there are some with more than 3k GAs won!!
Comment has been collapsed.
Hey Zakaoai,
there are "gifters" in Unlucky7, users who won more than 7 games, but also constributed to the group.
In UL7, every giveaway creator can choose if their giveaway is "only for the unlucky" or "open to all". As the Cyberpunk creator wrote "All can join", gifters are entering the giveaway.
I would strongly prefer if giveaways that are just for UL7 are forced "unluckies only", but it is up to each giveaway creator.
I have already kicked some "giftes", who have not gifted for a long while, due to that giveaway and probably will kick some more in the next days.
Comment has been collapsed.
Addition:
If you take a look at my gifting history, you will see several giveaway with 0-4 entries. For the last 4-ish years, these should be all UL7 giveaways that were "unluckies only". As they were not for the most thought after games, only a couple of entries. As one only gain CV for group giveaways if there are 5 or more entries, many create giveaways for several gorups at once. Moderation of those is rather difficult, so I prefer these to be "open to all" in UL7.

Hello, it seems I have missunderstood the edit of 23rd April 2020. The way I understood how it was phrased was that join requests should no longer be posted here after this date (I'm no native English speaker btw, to my defence). That got me confused, as I've read the rules, which explicitly say to post here. So I requested to join on Steam but got denied and that's how I realized my missunderstanding. I'm sorry for that. Might I join?

Gifters, please read the October 2023 information: https://www.steamgifts.com/go/comment/XBsHs5q
A group for people that have won 7 or less games on steamgifts.
The idea is to help boost morale and help make things a bit more fair and friendly for everyone.
How to apply:
"game details"Steam account to public (games, playtime, groups, friends) - linkRules of application normal membership:
(1a) Your steamgifts account needs to be at least 2 months old. (It has to say 2 months or more on your profile.)
screenshot on how to check join date
OR
(1b) In case your account is less than 2 months old -
you need to have 7 or more completed giveaways on steamgifts (You gave away 7 or more gifts of reduced or full value)
You need have won no more than 7 gifts on steamgifts (0-7 wins is ok, 8 or more will disqualify you).
You need to have your previous wins on steamgifts activated in YOUR account (steamgifts rule).
You are not a documented scammer (e.g steamrep)
It is your first time around on Steamgifts and you have not deleted your account in the past. There might be exception to this, talk to me (in a comment here). New rule April 2023.
Remember to sync your Steamgifts after being invited.
Once you've won 8 gifts or more -
You need to leave the group and remember to sync your Steamgifts. If you want to stay as a gifter, see below, request your promotion on Steam after your 8th win or ahead of time.
Gifter membership
Gifters create giveaways for group members.
Gifters can only enter 'open to gifters' giveaways and only IF they have a +7 gift difference in group. screenshot check yours here No description => not open to gifters!
Be at least level 3 on steamgifts
Have at least a give/sent ratio of 1:1 in numbers ignoring "no value games sent
4.1 If you have many recent giveaways of asset flip or similar games that are overpriced and just not yet set to zero value, you will probably be denied from being a gifter. If your only giveaways for UL7 are "overpriced trash" every couple of months, please change the quality of your giveaways or leave the group. Updated rule Jan 2024.
Make at least one GA per week in case your in-group gift difference is under +7 until you reach that mark
5.1 Create at least one group (exclusive or share) group giveaway every 6 months. If you create a lot of giveaways in general, but only exactly one UL7 giveaway each 6 months, please post a link in the giveaway thread on Steam, easier to find your last giveaway.
Must keep an in-group VALUE difference bigger than 0
Mention you want to be a gifter when you post below.
After you are in the group, check the threads & announcements (even the old ones) on Steam.
Read: https://www.steamgifts.com/go/comment/XBsHs5q
Group giveaway guide - when you create a giveaway and someone wins DON'T deliver gift until:
(unless it was open to gifters / multi group giveaway and the winner was from another group/whitelist)
If you request a new winner, because the winner is no longer in the group, ask for a screenshot first, so you have proof when he/she left the group.
When its time for you to leave the group:
FAQs
How do I sync my profile?
Like this
How do I check my steamgifts join date?
Like this
Can I enter to win a gift for my friend / family / brother / cousin / dog / pet gerbil?
Gifts have to be activated in your account. This is a steamgifts rule.
If your friends want to join, have them apply here.
You don't have to enter all group giveaways - Remember you only have up to 8 gifts so choose wisely!
Its actually much preferred if you only enter giveaways for games you actually want.
Can non gifters create giveaways for the group?
Regular members can also create group giveaways for each other. Actually this is encouraged.
Can I join the group as both gifter as normal member?
You can join the group as both, or become a gifter once you have won the gift quota.
I have more than 8 wins but not all wins are from the group, do I still have to leave?
Yes, the win count refers to your steamgifts account, it is not group specific.
I have to leave the group but still have ongoing group giveaways I am part of, can I still win those?
No, if you have to leave please exit all ongoing group giveaways you are a part of.
We get very angry when we have to perform dozens of re-rolls on people that left / were kicked from group days ago and still "win" group giveaways.
I am a gifter but have less than 8 wins on steamgifts, can I enter group giveaways for normal members?
yes, once you reach 8 or more wins you become a full 'gifter'. Until then you can enter all 'normal' group giveaways.
For gifters: Only enter group GAs, if the GA is "open to gifters" and your gift difference is >= +7. Please refrain from using UL7 GAs to store points.
