I still think the whitelist/blacklist system is an underlying reminiscence of a dominant secular culture based on racist and fascist values where people love and praise the white and avoid and devalues the black.

Even though I love The Black List series, so if I blacklist someone, it could be a positive act somehow.

Ps: no need to pull #28 here, I just used so many words at the first sentence that I've never used before in english.

Last month my blacklist was over 100 people, but then I took a deep breath and removed all of them, except three people whom I just can't stand.
Today I see no reason to blacklist anyone (if I want to restrict giveaways - I'm using wl/group filters), because it seems a bit extreme (or, maybe childish) to me, and requires something extraordinary to happen.
Haven't found myself in others' blacklists yet =)

bump thanks for the giveaway and thanks for the hints - seems like I did everything right until now. ;) (joined SG roundabout a month ago)
I just didn't know about the giveaway for creating topic thingy. But hey - makes it worthier to read it! Too sad it seems like there are bots collecting the links on the forum.I'll be hiding mine when doing so :-)

i just notice your first GA still didn't get a feedback? have you contacted the winner? if he got it.. then make sure he mark received.. if you didn't send the gift.. send it.. if you send the gift and he don't mark received.. Create a support ticket to ask support to help u fix it..

Unless u fix it.. it will gave you a lot blacklsit in the future.

Actually I sent the gift but the winner couldn't redeem it cause he owned it and sent it back to me instead. I already created a support ticket the same day but still await a reply

... just send a support ticket for reroll.. it's a much easier ticket to respond and usually only take 10 mintues to 1 hour.

Thanks for letting me know! I'll just send a "delete giveaway" ticket instead and will gift it to a colleague instead.
Regarding the winner steam recognizes the gift as base game as well - that's why he couldn't redeem it. And those who could redeem it couldn't join the giveaway. I'll rather create a new giveaway for an additional windborne copy which can't be bought anymore and doesn't reward ans exp ;-)

it takes something really special for me to blacklist someone but a few reasons why ive blacklisted someone so far

  1. for saying 14 x thanks in 20 seconds, for your 14 running giveaways.
  2. for being a part of 960 steam groups when i made a giveaway for a few very small open groups :(
  3. for being a special kind of a$#$#at.
  4. sometimes i bl those 5-400 ratios guys too :(

and i dont think im that evil really. and now i even have xmas hat to prove it, which makes me look less evil and spooky (:

Is there any way to check if you are blacklisted by anyone?

8 years ago
Permalink

Comment has been collapsed.

well.. if you suspect someone..just try join one of his/her old giveaway.. if you blacklisted it will tell you..

If you just want to findout who blacklisted you...
There is archiBot.. but please ask archi for permission and it's technically kinda like hacking.

I don't think I am on any lists because I am normally really good about things. I have never seen anything saying I am blacklisted so I assume I am good. Well, hope so. Was just interested if there was a way. Definitely won't do anything that could be considered hacking. Not worth it because we are all guests here.

Apparently there are some like that. They are annoyed just by you doing something they deem irrelevant.

1-3 are the most confusing ones :) I do not use 2 and 3, but 1. made my BL quite large (and 4. helped with it a bit).

I don't see any point like "Break (other?) SG rules"

those SG offense are either too smaller that didn't need to blacklist. or too large that just report and bann needed.

Never blacklisted for no reason or for fun. Only 8 reasons from your list are suitable for me to blacklist someone (but I blaclisted for only 3-4 in past).
Btw have you thought that you gave more reasons for people who never or rarely blacklist someone? :-)
Oh and I think there is one more potential reason to blacklist (can't confirm it though) - if you write the real name of the person who created GA. I usually do this to show that it isn't automatically generated by bot ''thank you''. But I guess that can be creepy for someone like stalking the person.

I am not using my blacklist. I think there is too much hate on this world. Why should I do more? I am using only mi whitelist. and for those, who are not good people, I just report... and that's all. everyone can change :)

I blacklist only those who act like complete jerks, ruin events by leaking GA links, have multiple wins and thus break the rules. So basically 6, 7, 8, 15, 16, 17 can get someone to my naughty list.

When a site like indiegala gives out a large number of free keys for a game and minutes later people start making giveaways with the free key they just received I usually blacklist them.

I love your No. 13 but truly, is there more than one?

I've been blacklisted by one person for not posting anything when I entered their GA.

Oh and you forgot one point:

  • winning a giveaway can end you up on the GA-creators BL - for giving other people better odds.
