Humble Bundle & Gifting

[Party Poison]

Reading what went down in Adol's shop on TBT marketplace, I'm wondering what everyone's opinion is on gifting (not selling for $$$, TBT, game items, etc) extra codes they have and don't want. :S

I know the company is extremely bent on not gifting the codes, yet they offer gifting options now through their website upon checkout, but it feels like such a waste to let these codes just die in the abyss.

I was thinking of giving mine away, but I'm afraid people would essentially shoot me with their preaching for trying, haha. I don't want anything at all in return for them, but if someone else can enjoy something that's just wasting away. . . :c I don't know. Like I gave my family and friends some keys, but it seems that when it comes to online communities it's a double standard.

Wait, why is there controversy around giving away extra Steam codes?

Idk, maybe people start offering real money or something? ^^^

You'd think they'd use Reddit for that. Still...I wish I had a Civilization humble bundle. *whistles*

I love humble bundle myself, and I've given extra codes away to people because I had a code for a game I already owned.

edit: Speaking of giving away codes... anyone want a free copy of VVVVVV? I've got an extra code from the recent humble bundle here.
