      Free to Play games have been posted as deals for years.

        I don't check steam for these things, but I do check cheapies everyday. So I find it helpful.

        And? I don't agree with them being deals either. They're not. They're trials periods to convince you to buy the game.

        If it was posted as "40% off No Rest for The Wicked $35.97 (2 day free trial period, was $59.95)" then that would be a more relevant title. But you are posting about a trial period, not an actual deal/sale.

        Also, it seems quite illogical that a moderator decline a report against their own post, I assume that's what's happened here. Another moderator should review it.

          It's not a conspiracy, mods won't remove a deal reposted here from Ozbargain that has 83 upvotes and no downvotes on Ozbargain just because one person here takes issue with it, unless it's breaking the posting guidelines then they probably would.

        Because the title is misleading. "was $59.99"
        "Free weekend" is a better title.

            @Flippant: I'd suggest you take your own advice. It's a misleading title for sure.

              @Lifeline: So because I read it and understood immediately what it was I should take my own advice and go and do more reading so I can understand it? Yeah that makes sense….. You must've done debating at school.

              Your downvotes make me all tingly. Feed me feed me.

                People are telling you it's inaccurate, but because you want to dig your heels in to the position you took, you're willing to argue in bad faith. Accurate titles have always been a staple on this site and other people's posts are constantly edited by mods to be more accurate.

                Your downvotes make me all tingly. Feed me feed me.

                Imagine getting upset about how people vote in one post and then insinuating that how people vote is meaningless in the next

        Because it's not free to play. It's a 2 day trial period.

        If it was posted as "40% off No Rest for The Wicked $35.97 (2 day free trial period, was $59.95)" then that would be a more relevant title. But this is a trial period, not an actual deal/sale.

        Also "people that use this site" are generally looking for posts about items that are available and relevant to them regarding deals. Trial periods that still require purchases being posted as "free", along with things like supermarket deals for a single store in the country are not relevant to most users. These are things that have been raised in the past but nothing has been done, and it'll only continue to annoy people as time goes on - It's asinine that such deals are posted here, and not given their own forum thread, or that they haven't implemented region/location tagging and filtering considering how trivially easy that would be.

            @Flippant: lol this is not the only account I've had here, and contributed in other ways. Heaven forbid people don't spend hours online all day trawling for deals - trying to make this about a single user instead of the topic is pretty immature.

            So, no, this is not "omg you didn't understand the post!!!" the entire point is that the title is neither accurate (fact), nor do I personally believe this is a deal (somewhat just an opinion).

            You've never bothered upvoting one of Neil's numerous free game deals

            damn, it's almost like the deal doesn't apply to me or I disagree with it being a deal or something. But sure, you're right, as per the voting guidelines maybe I shouldn't have downvoted this. But oh no, someone got a downvote and that person has never upvoted them! how will they live? please grow up.

            • @chunder: End of the day I immediately knew what the title meant the moment I saw it, and you obviously didn't. If I was you, instead of downvoting it I would've left a comment saying that I thought the title needs changing because I found it a bit misleading or something along those lines, then if nothing happened I would've reported it and said the same thing and hoped a mod changed it for me, and if they didn't, who cares, it explains exactly what the "deal" is in the first line beneath the title for those who might be a bit confused as to what exactly is going on. Just be thankful this isn't Ozbargain where people post upcoming Gamepass and PS+ games, Borderlands golden key codes and big movies when they come to streaming services (all to very positive receptions from the Ozbargain community might I add), you'd hate it over there. I guess it takes all kinds to make the world go round, sometimes I forget that we're not all the same. All the best, enjoy the rest of your day.

    I've been jamming this all weekend with a mate and it's been really good. Also 40% off until the 27th ($35.97).
