ugh, if I bought something from humble bundle store, is it possible to get a gift link if I forgot to check the "gift" box? I now have this stupid game I was supposed to gift on my account...

Yep it is possible.

listen to the mad man
can someone explain this?
I think I got my GAF account back then... lol but didn't frequent the place

That post is from some totally different forum, and it's sad because dude is 33 and clearly depressed and creating a fantasy world where Sonic and Link are his friends and he's announcing his own birthday to get attention online.

If you haven't already used the key, you can try asking support to change the order to a gift. I did this recently with Indie Gala (buying a bundle for yourself if you already own it literally does nothing -- the system just eats your order).

I did the same thing yesterday with a copy of Hammerwatch I want to give out.

Not for me :/
that's weird :/ i guess you should do what jasec said

There's a difference between bundles (which have separate gift buttons for every key in them if you buy the bundle not specifically tagged as 'gift') and things you bought on the store, which are considered personal and thus not-regiftable if you didn't select 'gift'.
I think your only option is to contact their support and see if they can make it a gift link instead.

Edit: JaseC'd on the previous page.

Btw, I'm getting on soon if you wanna play something bro. Payday 2 maybe??

Yee I'm down. Taking like a 15-20 minute break from the last few rounds craziness. We ended up playing at 3 skull Overkill mode.

Anyone else gonna wanna join in for some Payday 2 craziness?

Yeah, fuck Bulldozers, fuck Shields and fuck Discount Sam Fisher twice! Hope somebody goes the Enforcer tree to fuck at least with the Shields :D

Oh man that Sam Fisher agent was something else. Sometimes you don't even get the chance, you just hear the goggle sounds and then BAM, DEAD

i would take a million alpacalypses, or waifunamis, or saoirsephoons (thats a saoirse typhoon btw) than the shady shit ive seen in this thread for the last few days /weeks.

but mine is a unpopular opinion so like I said, ill just lay low from the thread from now on, its all good

I'm sorry but what kind of shady shit went on in this thread?


Also, I seldom speak my mind about all these derailings, but at cost of appearing as an old grumpy buzzkiller:

I'm usually a great supporter of off topic, sheer mayhem, flaming, trolling and whatnot. And by "usually" and "great" I mean in almost twenty years of internet I've piled up my fair share of temp and perma bans from several (Italian) forums.

So I love waifus, alpacas and saoirses, and I love comparing our games counts, connection speeds and mostly our dicks lengths.

And this thread has been fine with off topic, at least since my arrival (just in time for last year summer sale) to a month ago or so. Borderline manageable, but still, fine.

Now it is not fine anymore. But not because of the off topic, no. This thread has always been a community-like one, and it was/is its greatest perk imho.
This thread has crossed the line because now we are like 5000 regulars.
5000 regulars posting alpacas and waifus and that one drink I always forget its name
yerba?
.


Now, this is clearly not the opinion of a bunch of users here. I remember someone before the sale telling like "this thread will be unmanageable, see you after the sale". Now I don't even know if those people ever came back. I honestly don't know who really posts here anymore except the dozen or so literal megagivers and Monk because he's always been above anyone else. :)


Chatting with someone here it came up that there are very few ways to safeguard this thread.
One would be opening a sort of mirror Steam OT in Community.
Another would be moving all the chat-like posting over to the actual SteamGAF chat on Steam! :D

I don't know.
I've never had anything to do with a forum this big so fuck, I cannot be confident enough in talking about solutions, but still.


Also I'm not a mod here, so I guess just do whatever you please. :D

Ah, shit, sorry. That must be a very recent change as my Apotheon order is less than two months old. Try explaining the situation to Humble/Valve -- they may agree to unlink the key from your account. Be sure to provide evidence of the purchase.
