For a start people have a few days to provide feedback. Secondly, its a beta key which is frowned upon. They are not allowed to be given away as its not the full game so i would not be suprised if you get negative feedback.

Moreover regifting may be not against rules but it is very borderline.

Why are they "bullcrap" if people can actually use them?

I have seen the AGFPRO bundle going twice today by the same person, fanatical iirc sold it for about $4 or something before, guess they held onto it for a while to put up the giveaway for decent points for XP. They have put up the DLC that came with the bundle back then too, but the thing is if someone bought the normal bundle 2 years ago, but doesn't have the DLC being put up, then surely those giveaways would be beneficial to them? Why are they against TOS?

I would like to see staff tackle the fake users and regifting of keys more than focus on DLC giveaways, and maybe update the system so people who have a game they are entering for cannot do so. Had someone win Borderlands 2 from me when they already had it. Wasn't much I could do. Which is kinda crap, since they could resell the key or make/use a different account to give it away for XP.

This happened way back when IG started the giveaway system, one user was winning a lot because back then you could accumulate massive amount of points from your giveaways, so he was able to mass enter things, win stuff he already won and had anyways and then made a giveaway again, he would obviously keep things he didn't have. But still IG needs to tackle these people more instead of shrugging shoulders about it.

High end DLC's are removed because people abuse the system. I can give away a high end DLC and if you don't have the base game and you win it .. you can't say it is bad .. thus "fake users" will do a bunch of them to level up and odds are they will get one negative out of ever 100 people that win it. Realistically if you don't have the base you shouldn't enter but it doesn't work that way .. IF the dlc gives less than 10 points or if The Base game is free they usually are left up.

According to this reddit forum discussing the free key, it also gives you Order of Battle: Rising Sun DLC as well.

It is the site that generate preview, you enter game url and then its automatic. So either it is a true key, the steam ID may have changed or this user is abusing the system.

Heaven & Hell was given for free:
