I reported one user for faking giveaway two weeks ago. He won private giveaway of 2K Collection. Twice.
No sign of these games in his public steam profile. He has contributed $1,309.66, but only $35 in visible giveaways.
And in that two weeks he won, because of his faked contributor status:
Half-Life 2
Supreme Commander Gold Edition
Fallout 3: Game of the Year Edition
Nuclear Dawn
Super Meat Boy
Defense Grid: The Awakening
So, dear cg, I think that there is serious problem with support and this site under your glorious leadership.

thanks for the update.
i think it would be nice, to give the giveaway creator a reroll button (or something like that).
Reasons could be:

That could easily be abused and will likely not happen. Same reason as "Only giveaways which are open or coming soon can be deleted by the giveaway creator. This ensures they do not delete a giveaway after it ends simply because they don't agree with the winner."

I think that an option to re-roll if both parties agree, would help in certain cases.

The winner of the giveaway should ask for a reroll to the gifter, but then we'd have a bunch of "I clicked re-roll by mistake (my cat did actually) and now I've lost my gift"

If two people would both click by accident the re-roll button, then it is their mistake. No system is fool proof and cases like that would be very rare. One could lessen the chances even more by demanding a verification. So it would require two different persons clicking by accident re-roll button and confirming it too by accident.
Based on the experiences I have had on this site, I would guess that we would have our first case within a week.

Considering there are already a bunch of people who click on received because they think it's how they're gonna get their gift, they'Re likely to click on re-roll to send the gift again. Idiocy and/or lack of proper understanding of the english language can lead to such problems.

this will help all those newer people who don't read rules, at least.
thanks CG

I hope you´re still working on creating fully supported Mod accounts, cg. Because the site is going down at highspeed without proper administration. There´s rulebreaking, contrib faking etc etc everywhere. And I really start to think about leaving this site.

Another update was just rolled out, allowing users to delete their own giveaways.
If you view one of your giveaways, you'll see a Delete Giveaway button where the typical Report Giveaway button is located. If you click it, you'll be forwarded to a page where you can select a reason for the deletion from a dropdown menu (See below for the list). After selecting a reason, the giveaway will be instantly removed. I know there are going to be a lot of questions, so I'll try to summarize some of the mains points.
