(03/04/26) Update:
The recalculation of the stats has been globally applied.
To maintain a fair and balanced ecosystem, a global recalculation of all user statistics and contribution values will be initiated. This will take place in the following days.
- Most users should notice slight increase or decrease in their levels based on games that they have given.
- Current giveaways wouldn't be affected much, as the anti-abuse system we have right now is applying price changes for active giveaways.
- Each user will be able to track any change to their price history on https://steamdrops.net/history
Example of price reduction detection
Reasoning for Recalculation
In the early stages of the steam drops, the system lacked automated pricing detection across the 30+ key shops and key resellers. This allowed certain users to exploit the contribution factor by utilizing low-priced or "shovelware" titles to artificially inflate their levels. To ensure that users who contribute legitimate, high-value games are not overshadowed by these exploits, all historical contributions will be retroactively assessed using the current value calculations with diminishing cuts included in it.
Impact on User Levels
Every user's total contribution value will be recalculated based on the true market value of the games they have provided. Consequently, users whose levels were inflated by low-value games will see a reduction in their total contribution value and a corresponding level adjustment.
Going forward
The users who still manage to abuse the levels with some undetected shovelware games will have their stats manually reviewed. The stats will be recalculated after shovelware games have been price-reducted.
Level Requirement Adjustments
To offset the global reduction in inflated contribution values and decrease the overall difficulty of progression moving forward, the required gift values for leveling up have been permanently reduced. The new thresholds will be applied during the recalculation process:
Percentage Changes (Lower Tiers 1-5)
- Level 1: No change ($10.00)
- Level 2: -16.67% ($30.00 → $25.00)
- Level 3: -50.00% ($100.00 → $50.00)
- Level 4: -40.00% ($250.00 → $150.00)
- Level 5: -40.00% ($500.00 → $300.00)
