Bugged value of gifts sent

Perhaps you should read the FAQs.

Hmm.

Games from bundles only add up to $30 until you start giving away non-bundle games, then you get 20%.

It's not bug. If you giveaway non-bundle games, you can jump over a wall named $30.

Sigh, will these threads never end?

I suggest you to do 2 things before opening a thread or going in to SG group chat to ask.

1. Read the FAQ.

2. Use the search button to find for previous similar threads. There are plenty around that has the same 'problem' as you.

Cheers.

The only bug is that you are cheap and only seen to care about contributor status.

I'm starting to think that any new topic that contains the number 30 should just redirect to the FAQ when the submit button is pressed...

I for one would welcome short (EG 1 to 6 hour) suspensions for people who ask questions that are answered by the FAQ.

Though I do think the FAQ link needs to be more prominent. Maybe a 50-point font link in the header of every page.

Its not a bug, It's a feature! ^^

Ya, don't give away bundled games.

When someone sees a topic like this so you get excited at the chance to bash someone, or are you trying to help someone to make the community a better place? If these topic just piss you off you don't have to read them let alone post in them.

I found a bug as well. It seems that you are gifting only for self-gain.

I don't think this is an inherent feature of gifting.

Try giving away a non-bundle game :p

LOL

The OP asked a question and the responses in majority have been pretty pathetic, so the OP gave away bundled games, somebody out there gets a gift on the goodwill of the OP that paid nothing for it. Are people really going to sit back and complain because perhaps the OP would have gotten a sense of accomplishment out of seeing their contributions rise? Regardless the OP paid something for that bundle and was kind enough to give games away to many people who I am sure don't contribute for varying reasons. Frankly it is rather ungracious.

Nobody forced you to respond to this post, everybody has to learn somewhere and the FAQ isn't actually the easiest to spot, when I first joined I got my answers from a ticket because I wasn't sure that SG had an FAQ it was only later by chance I stumbled onto it.

suspended :\

As so many said before, the FAQ and look for Sticky threads. That means they stay at the top of the chaos below it ; D I understand the issues with bundle giveaways-though look at it like this: someone will get the game who wants it instead of the person who is stuck with it. I believe that counts for something. But seriously, give away some games purchased from Steam. It helps the site and makes everyone happy. Now y'all hold hands and sing campfire songs. I know that at least some of you need warm fuzzies.

Great thread, would read again. 10/10

Obviously.

Honestly, if the "I don't get contributor value for bundle keys, so I won't give anymore" thing is an issue.... well I hope that suspension is nice and permanent.

EDIT: IN celebration of this rule, I have a bundle key I am gouing to put up and expect NO VALUE AT ALL. Because, that's like, how it works yo.

Nothing to see here, folks. Closing it up.
