Where do I give away a steam key?
Hi all.

Now and then I have a key I'd like to donate to someone. Where is the right place to do this?

Just use the Activate Product on Steam option and copy and paste the key.

Wow ... and the guy didn't even say thx ...
I'm not a moderator, admin or any significant contributor to this group... However in 2 other groups I frequent and one of them I'm a moderator within, we basically do what you did.

Go to the core general discussion area (here) and create a post with a title indicating its a key drop thread or the game name that key is being dropped in.

Some people do this frequently and make a more generic thread others can subscribe to for future GAs. When the Author has keys, they drop them or leave instruction on how they want to distribute the key(s) within that repeatedly used thread.

In the group I moderate in, it is more of a GA group, so there is a dedicated section for it and frequent gifters have their threads pinned. FGF isn't a GA group in that sense.

I don't know how FGF handles all this, but after skimming the Gen discussion area, I see a few threads here and there with key offerings. So seems like you chose the right spot. :)

Expect non thankful ninjas when you drop a key. This is why so many gifters choose to gift in different ways under more controlled methods to help insure keys get used in personal libraries vs collected and resold/traded.

Thanks for the GA, btw. :gearthumbsup:

You can drop keys anywhere (except the official threads in this forum as those are reserved for relevant content), but I will say that our Discord server has a bot that allows for dropping keys - this ensures you can see who claimed your key and hold them accountable if they don't bother to say thanks. :B1:
Thanks guys ... I do have keys I'd like to share and will follow your advice ...
