Reznov64: So they'll remove suspicious votes from a game on the Dreamlist but they still won't transfer over titles from the Wishlist?

kultpcgames: Dear GOG Team,

I already mentioned this in another thread; perhaps your bosses should change the terms and conditions for GOG accounts in the future.

1. Use of the forum/Dreamlist, etc., is only permitted with a minimum spend (perhaps 10-20 bucks).

2. Offering giveaways only to buyers with a minimum spend (perhaps 50 bucks).

This solves several problems at once. Trolls in the forum will be drastically reduced, and spamming in the forum, reviews, or, as is now the case, in the Dreamlist will be rare. Key reselling of giveaway keys will be eliminated.

Now, someone will argue that fewer new accounts will be created because it could scare away customers. However, you will retain many more existing and paying customers in both your shop and the forum because they will have a better experience. It is common knowledge that retaining a customer costs only a tenth of what it costs to acquire a new one.

Just a suggestion, think about it.

Kobi_Blade: This is the dumbest thing I've heard all day. Not even Steam has such strict requirements, you only need to spend €5 to unlock a Steam account.

Not to mention, a good chunk of us received licenses directly from developers for QA, reviews, and other professional purposes.

I could go even further and mention the program where we got licenses directly from Steam, back when GOG was trying to connect the two libraries.

Yet according to you, all these people have no right to be part of the GoG community just because they didn’t spend €50 on the GOG Store? Ridiculous.

BanditKeith2: To the ones arguing for a paywall and sorta against giveaways .. I can say at the very least I and many others I talked to had found Gog through mostly talks about giveaways and became a regular paying consumer as a result

Cavalary: Uhhuh. And also imagine what hit the million claims of the recent bundle would have taken with such a rule.

BanditKeith2: I doubt it had any truly negative impact on people becoming a regular paying user of Gogs storefront as most who are that big a prude or against 'adult '' media to such a level that such a giveaway would have turned them away.. Would at all have bought games at any storefront much if at all unless it was maybe some place dealing very extremely pure media

Edit I mean seriously Steam has alot of worse''adult'' games still from what I can find

And only I can think of Epic not having adult games last I checked as even the other noticed Drm-free storefront has adult games only afew but still

Where as console wise Playstation and Nitendo even has such adult targeted games last I checked unsure about X-box though

Cavalary: I meant imagine how much fewer people would have claimed it if they'd have been required to be existing GOG customers with at least $50, or whatever, spent here...

BanditKeith2: Ah sorry for misunderstanding you.. Don't get why you asked me what you had then as I am for giveways here and not for paywalling stuff here because it brrings in new paying costumers and brings more free advertisement to Gog do to well Gog doesn't do give aways regularly unlike other storefronts so people will gladly talk about the Gog give aways and will bring Gog to others notice and likely get more to pay for games here regularly..

Anyway my missunderstanding with your question was born from basically when ''adult' games are talked about here usually thier is the more prudish bringing it up wording similar to yours thus I misunderstood your intent
