[announcement] minimum karma and account age for members. see inside for info.

so we have had a rash of redditors using shell accounts to "scam" free games. this isn't something that we the mods of r/randomactsofsteam will stand for. we believe it is part of our job to enable you to do what you do best and that is give games and make new friends!.
we at RAoS do a number of things to ensure our community is only full of genuine people who love to give and game. some of the things we do to ensure the integrity of the community is to routinely check to ensure games that are gifted are being accepted and added to steam inventories as well as thank you posts being posted. we have noticed lately that [thanks] posts are not being made and games are not going to their intended places.

with that said we have added some new rules to RAoS.

1. accounts must have at least 100 combined karma.
2. accounts must be at least 30 days old.

this only applies to comments in [giveaway] and [contest] posts.

both points are open for discussion to the community and we are willing to change/modify/remove any of the above if the community feels we should do so. after all, this is a community and YOUR opinion counts!

sound off in the comments and let us know what you think. should we make it karma only, account age only, both? should it be higher or lower.
we don't have all the answers but we do have tools and we can help ensure our members don't get taken advantage of.
if you don't want to post and have feedback that you would like to share then message the mods or message u/GHETTO_CHiLD or u/DoctorSpazz directly on reddit or on steam.
we hope this doesn't ruin the community or effect anyone in a negative way but again, we feel it is becoming necessary to protect this subreddits integrity and users.

thanks for all your gifting and support! as is our motto on RAoS; Stay Calm and Keep Gifting!

thanks,

management

edit: we treat our community right so don't forget to check contest we having going for those who give ;).
