Hey, I think it would be cool if you could give someone goozex points as a gift. I have some extra points that I do not need, and I would like to give them to a friend of mine. So my suggestion here is having an option to give the gift of goozex points.
Anyone else like this idea?
no
Good intentions, but this would be a huge headache for Goozex. Idiots everywhere would be making fake accounts, transferring everything to a new account, and grabbing a bunch of games from honest traders for free.
yeah, i guess, but you cant have more than 1 account at the same address anyways so they couldnt keep doing it over and over. oh well, it was just a thought.
Unfortunately, that exploit already exists (ip checking/address checking controls can be circumvented). Unfortunately, while your suggestion is well intended, it would make that kind of exploit easier for the perpetrator and harder to detect by the G-Team and its users.
Also, it enables circumventing the 1 trade credit fee by direct trading.
I doubt we'll see point gifting anytime soon. Feel free to do a forum search if you would like more information.

I thought it was good... But not Directly sharing your points with others. Buying a gift card eliminates any fraud that others may try.

Your idea is not dumb, but yes it is still impossible to take some of your left-over points that are just sitting around and hand them over to a friend.
You can however buy points and give them to your friend through buying a Goozex Gift Card!
