New: Delete Giveaways

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.

• First off, about 20% of our support tickets come from users asking for deletes, so this will be a huge help at reducing the workload in support.
• The site should be cleaner in general since the creator can now delete their own giveaway or beta key after realizing their mistake, instead of submitting to support and waiting on us.
• 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.
• Deleted giveaways remain on your View Created page. This way, if a moderator removes one of your giveaways, there's still a record in place so you can find out what happened.
• Giveaways that have been deleted list a reason of why they were removed, and whether the action was performed by a moderator or the giveaway creator. For example, click here.
• Points are automatically refunded to users that entered a deleted giveaway.
• When you create a giveaway, there's a notification saying, 'Based on your current feedback score, you're able to create up to x additional gifts.' Deleted giveaways count towards this limit, so if you're able to create 5 additional gifts, and you create and delete them all, you'll be locked out. This prevents users from simply creating and removing giveaways, or trolling.
