SG Pillars - Steamgifts contributor group

SGPillars is a group made for the most generous members of the Steamgifts community, and through their contributions keeping it active and running smoothly; This includes those who donate their time (moderators / support), money (Patreon), or who give far more then they receive.

To join and remain a member:

  1. Either be;
    A. Steamgifts Moderator (any type)
    B. Steamgifts Patron (on Patreon) with 1:1 real CV ratio or better.
    C. Have a 2:1 real CV ratio or better, and level 5+ with 50+ different games given away.
  2. Be an active Steamgifts contributor; Your latest giveaway must be less then a year old.
  3. Group giveaways aren't required, but to avoid abuse members group value difference may not go below -$200.
  4. Respect the gifters; Thank gifters if you win, and play wins if the gifter asks you to play/enjoy them in giveaway description.

Those who fail to adhere to these rules may be kicked without warning at any time!

If you wish to join please post in this thread. After checking that you meet the group requirements you will be sent a friend invite, and shortly after you accept it the group invite will be sent. The friend invite is needed because Steam no longer allows group invites from users unless they are on your friends list.

Note that Steam does not always show a notification when you receive an invite!

Hi there, I would love to join if you accept developers/publishers who mostly gift their own games too.

It's fine if you primarily give away your own developed/published games. However, currently you don't meet the minimum 2:1 real CV ratio requirement (you've sent sent: $4065.47, won: $2106.17 , so have a ratio atm of 1.93:1).

Gifts Won
191 ($2,716.94)
Gifts Sent
876 ($11,514.30)
Ratio
4.59 (4.24)

You can check your real CV ratio by placing your mouse cursor over top the "Gifts sent" or "Gifts won" value in your Steamgifts profile (a popup window showing the real CV amount will appear).

Thanks, I'll keep an eye on those hidden values then. After our 100%OJ 10th anniversary event ends, I'll do more giveaways on the following weeks, maybe by then it will be enough.

Hello, I noticed I was removed from the group but I'm not sure why. I'm a member of the SG Patreon and have a 1 to 1 real CV of 2.8 won and 3.3 sent. I'm active and I always thank giveaway creators. Unless I happened to win multiple gibs from the same person then I will condense the thanks into 1 message on 1 of the giveaways so I'm not spamming on each one. Just curious if I did something wrong. I'd rather know what it was than be unaware, you know?

Hey there. Yea it looks like I made a mistake and thought you'd not thanked someone for a win from a month ago, but you'd actually won two of their giveaways at the same time and just thanked them once for both. I'm sorry, it was completely my fault for not noticing that.

Just sent you a new invite so can re-add you to the group.

It's all good, it happens. I saw your friend request and accepted. Are you able to add someone back to a group if they were kicked? I'm not very knowledgeable about Steam Groups. But I'll keep an eye out for an invite.

As an aside, taking a look through the group discussions and announcements to see if I missed anything has brought to my attention my lack of normal open to all public giveaways. Definitely something I need to work on moving forward.

Edit: Refreshed and I had a pending invite, I'm back in. Also realized I had a more negative value than I thought. Yikes. Need to do some giveaways and probably update my spreadsheet more frequently.

Yep users can be re-added if they're kicked, just have to send a new invite. There's a separate system for banning users which makes it harder to re-invite them in the future, but I don't use it.

Unfortunately you don't quite meet the 2:1 real CV ratio requirement needed to join atm. You've sent $273.61 and won $145.67 (or a ratio of 1.87:1).

You can check your real CV ratio by placing your mouse cursor over top the "Gifts sent" or "Gifts won" value in your Steamgifts profile (a popup window showing the real CV amount will appear).

Hi, I just noticed I was kicked from the group even though my RCV ratio didn't drop below 1. Would it be possible to for me to find out if I broke other rule in some past giveaway?

You dropped below the minimum 2:1 real cv ratio needed to be a member.
In real cv value you've sent $749.32 and won 409.88, or a ratio of 1.82:1 .

You can check your real CV ratio by placing your mouse cursor over top the "Gifts sent" or "Gifts won" value in your Steamgifts profile (a popup window showing the real CV amount will appear).

Well it finally happened; the group now has a rule related to in-group giveaways.
Really didn't want to add one, but there were a handful of member that were just taking too much advantage of the gifters. It's not good when gifters are telling you they're having to blacklist members because some are just entering every giveaway they make in the group...
Made an announcement on the group page, so will wait and see what (if any) feedback there is from members on such a big change.

The -200 difference rule seems like a pretty reasonable one honestly.

ratios are more than reasonable.
will require a no overpriced trash game rule as well so people can't use a "$200" 0CV game they got for pennies to game it.

hello there. I've been absent for 2 years, but now I'm back and gifting games again. I usually gift and rarely receive/join giveaways. I'd like to do some gifts for a smaller group of ppl and not the broad masses. Hereby I request to join the group. :)

Hi! I'd like to join.
Not sure if I'm relevant for C but I think I have over 2:1 (If I'm looking at the right thing) and I'm juuuuust shy of level 5 (by 0.05 points! I'll get it in a day or two when some of my giveaways are over! :D)

Yep, looks like level 5 is just a waiting game atp, and your real cv ratio is almost 5:1 atm (very nice!). Just sent you an invite :)

Hey there! From a quick look it seems you meet all the requirements except the 50 unique giveaways, as you've given away a few games multiple times to reach 51. If you give away 4 more (different/unique) games you'll have fully met the requirements to join.
