Do you think the site's layout and/or code is ripped from SteamGifts?
The "levels" are exactly the same as on Steamgifts. I bet there has been a lot of code ripped from here.
Edit: The FAQ is exactly the same as well, wut wut.

I searched for "follx" and "follx.com" it doesn't show up in the Discussion boards. What happened to it?

But look again. The free games being given away have a value of "0 P". They are being called "without requirements". This is actually something that many people here have asked for - a way to get rid of their leftovers via giveaways without earning anything for it. They have obviously reversed that decision but haven't updated the comment to reflect that yet.
The site is similar but I don't really see where they are ripping off sg (edit: OK, maybe the F.A.Q.). I don't think that those 33 giveaways (most of them for free games) are going to hurt this site any either.
Statistics:
Total users: 1303
Gifts received: 1412
Gifts total cost: $6095
Project start: 30.03.2016
They also have a long way to go before catching up to sg.

I imagine that it's the same there as it is here. They just haven't been added to their "without requirements" (bundled) list yet and are being done as giveaways for them are made. The site is only a few weeks old after all.

They have no forum! D:
To automatization the entries in giveaways is allowed to use GiftSeeker only. Other programs are prohibited.
Interesting rule XD

Oh yeah! I forgot to add that part in the post. Thanks for reminding me!

The only rule I had difficulty understanding the meaning when reading the first time, which is also not ripped from SG FAQ and guidelines.

It was free a few hours ago.
Site is allowing GA of previously free gifts such as Bell Ringer and Adorables

Does the owner/creator use SteamGifts, maybe these forums?
At least the admin of the group on Steam doesn't have a SG account right now.

Well the account looks like a purpose-made Level 0 account.

I haven't used it since the 3 days ago that I found it. But just now had the time to post a thread seeing if anyone had heard of it.
I think I'll be sticking around here as well. xD

Looks like a russian ripoff, and with free games and allowed bot use doesn'T seem to be all that trustworthy to me.

Meh dont really care about other sites.. i used Gameminer and galagiveaways for a time and even won some stuff but i just end up not going there... different is Playblink wich i havent won anything but i really like the system and the donation system makes wins pretty easy if you donate anything but well i dont use it because i dont have money .p

So, SleepyCat calls it interesting but I wonder what other staff think of this? Any other staff want to speak their mind about this weird clone?
Comment has been collapsed.
I think he was being sarcastic.
You can get hints of the sarcasm through the use of 'whole new giveaway site' when everyone else was saying it was a clone, and 'promote a subscription-based autojoiner' when in fact they didn't actually promote the autojoiner, but instead did it subtly through the rules by "To automatization the entries in giveaways is allowed to use GiftSeeker only. Other programs are prohibited.".

I bet the website creator got blacklisted here too many times.

Maybe their Public Relations Officer calls SG a scam? :P
Comment has been collapsed.
Feels like an unprofessional attempt to imitate SG with the hopes of getting somewhere fast.
Though I might be wrong, I don't quite trust it one bit there.
Doesn't help their provider and host are...shady in my opinion. Just like their set-up.

My gut tells me not to connect to it via Steam...feels like the work of hackers.
Comment has been collapsed.
Good gut feeling.
They couldn't even be bothered to implement (free) SSL for a secure https connection.
Comment has been collapsed.
To be fair, SSL was only recently implemented here.
Comment has been collapsed.
Huh? I don't quite understand how that would prevent anyone from getting an SSL certificate from any of the worldwide providers. Since it's not limited to countryborders whether you can install it on a server or not.

Good point actually.
I completely missed that in my derailed logic there.
Thanks :)

How many points (P) can I receive?
Users are limited to 500 points at any given time.Finally found a solution to all those who wish this site had more points,go to this site instead

Sup everyone,
I found this site -- http://follx.com -- about 3 days ago and was instantly intrigued. Thought it looked a little ripped off and zoomed in, even as I had my suspicions I signed in and entered a few just to test it out; didn't win yet. But now that it's been a few days I want to know what everyone thinks about this site. So I searched the Discussions board and come to my surprise there's no mention of this site yet.
They also have a Steam group that doesn't contain much info: https://steamcommunity.com/groups/follx
Did I find some new gem?
Is it real/legit?
Does the owner/creator use SteamGifts, maybe these forums?
What the fuck is going on?!
EDIT: Oh yeah! I forgot to mention. The site promotes the use of GiftSeeker which is some tool that automates robotic entries on SG and SC.
