Why do people dislike giveaways

What ghost said, it's not the fact that there is a giveaway but that I have to login to unknown website with my discord account to enter the giveaway.

If the creator of the giveaway wanted to give to the people, they could easily made a simple giveaway without all the steps but instead they are actually "buying" twitter followers and their website traffic, pretending it's for the giveaway.
What they really want is for you to log on their website and give them your data; most likely the same way as Facebook and Google work. After they get your data they probably sell it to advertisers or even place ads on their own website. They don't give a single **** about giving free skins away, they just want your data and profit from you.
It's a shitty and shady business model which should be avoided and ignored.
Disclaimer: I don't know if this how the website actually works but in reality people who make giveaways and force you to login to their website in order to join it don't have good intentions.

The owner of the site is an admin in the community trying to bring traction to a site he made, I dont think you need to make it so personal. There’s really nothing sketch about it, if you don’t want your information to be bought and sold, you need to look into measures on your side and not try to change the entire internet.

i just think if you dont know much about it or who runs it , at first glance its very sketchy. to me at least. i just dont like taking risks and it may be a trusted member, but id rather just be safe if anything, and thats completely okay if other people trust it and want to enter, its just not for me and thats okay !

This is pretty much spot on. The whole "Follow my page, retweet, login through discord" is ridiculous.

Also... for a field tested skin? Can't even give away a F.New? Pssh. Lol

Field tested is the highest grade possible? Maybe you should check your facts before commenting. But if you don't want to a put in any effort you don't have to. Your choice and your choice alone.
