Hello all, I've got a suggestion to the staff here at SteamGifts.

I'm a part of the Steam group Comment Lord Giveaways and I currently have two giveaways ongoing for this group. Our group has one simple rule: comments are king, which means that we want all our members commenting on giveaways, announcements, discussion threads, chat, etc. But as I was looking through the people who entered my giveaways and comparing them to the comments, I found a bunch of people who haven't commented. I took the list of people and checked through all of our old giveaways to see their comment record. I then took the people who had less than a 50% ratio to the mods and got them banned.

Now the issue I bring up is that even after they've been banned those people are still entered in my giveaways. I thought it would be obvious to have them be automatically withdrawn from group giveaways that they are no longer a part of. Part of the reason why I expected this was because one of our members recently got suspended from SteamGifts (for what, I have absolutely no idea), and that person was automatically removed from both of my group giveaways. I would think that it would be extremely simple to implement this as well when people are no longer a part of a group.

I know that if someone who isn't a part of a group anymore wins we can just reroll, but for the convenience of group members who follow the rules I think this should be incorporated. I'd really like to hear the thoughts of the staff here.

Thanks, submitted. But still would like a discussion about this, since SuddleD already brought up a point that I completely missed.

Sure, just thought it was best to have it reach the staff through official means.

You're just fucking linking to profile of a guy who got suspended... Put two and two together, will you?

Calm the fuck down son and learn to use some proper grammar and reading comprehension.

You obviously didn't read what I wrote and just clicked on the links. I clearly stated I didn't know why he got suspended, he most certainly did not get banned as a result of my group, and I very clearly did not say he did anything wrong that deserved a suspension. I just used him as an example for how his entry in my giveaway disappeared as he was suspended.

Again, you would have picked up on all of this had you actually read my original post. Put two and two together yourself asshat.

I assume that since you have to 'sync' your accounts, if someone is in a group, enters a giveaway and then is removed from group, they still show up as a group member unless they sync again (I think). I don't think the system is setup to remove an entry as it is to see if they are able to enter it in the fist place. So, without the ability to remove entries one by one, I don't see a fix for this unless they code it into the site.

Yeah, dunno how that slipped past me. I just assumed everyone kept their profiles on public.

Maybe because of 5 deleted giveaways of Dota 2 in a row? It's either that or because you weren't commenting in giveaways you entered, or you could just be completely trolling me.

1>I requested support to del 'em... [ I was very new to sg , I was unaware of the rules and given away 5x dota2 . all were sea keys(I was suspended for that reason too), 4 users got that working so I got 40 contribution value , but since sea keys are not allowed I felt ashamed to have such contribution value so I requested support to del 'em ]

2>you can check.. I did comment in the giveaways I entered

3>well , I didn't comment much in the group page .

Maybe because you weren't very active in the group.

I didn't even know you could look that up. Very interesting.

You mean looking up who entered and commented on your giveaways? There's really no easy quick method for that, I basically went through each of the entries by hand and searched and compared.

I used to be part of The Raffle House group and this was an issue too. Non-members would still be able to exploit and join group giveaways because they haven't synced. So good suggestion, I hope this gets implemented!

I like the idea of your group, I also think comments are the best, especially original and inspiring comments!! I have recently started commenting more on giveaways and the forum and trying to be an active member in the SG community, but I guess my entry-to-comment ratio is still too low for me to join your group. Anyways, I wish all good for your group even though I might not be allowed to join it myself :D

I like commenting on comments because it's fun to read the comments and more so with responding to the comments with another comments and thus making a train of comments for people to read and comment on. That is why I like commenting.

The system automatically syncs your account every now and then, so that will remove them from the group. Until that you'll have to reroll

But what if the account is set to private? Then the account will not sync. I've tried force syncing with a private account but that doesn't work. The profile has to be set to public for SG to be able to sync.

I comment because I like being an active part of this community; plus it takes 1 second to say thanks on a giveaway.

Also; may I be invited to your group?

But you were a mod yourself not too long ago on Comment Lord Giveaways and even made this announcement. How is enforcing rules (such as you are doing there) being abusive?

I got kicked from the group with no consensus by another mod because he did not like me. The present mod who kicked me is now trying to take over the group. He even badmouthed sbart1992's ability to lead and said he was not fit to be leader. I defended him in the ADMIN COMMENT LORD group's chat and got a shitstorm because of it. The mod is now sucking sbart's dick for power.

He also kicked me BECAUSE of my announcement after I had the greenlight to kick people who did not comment but still won giveaway by sbart1992. Your group is broken bro. Watch out for the mods, I know it sounds made up but it's true. I can't recall his name, he's the one called "Ben" on his steam profile and has a religious avatar picture.

Edit: Got his name: Ceildric, don't trust him, he's power hungry. Watch him if you wanna live in the group.
