Yeah I get that they're spare codes for games they already have (or in this case origin codes when they've already used the steam ones), it just seems a bit iffy to me that someone would use these codes rather than pay a pittance to charity. Just to clarify, this is more a criticism of the people using the codes than the people giving them.
I take on board your hypothetical situation of someone not having the money to buy the bundle, and it would be fair enough if they use the codes I suppose, but given that these codes are on a public forum it would have to be a pretty big coincidence that the person who uses them is also someone who couldn't afford the 5 dollars (or as little as one dollar if they don't want to pay above the average and get the 2 bonus games). On the other hand the person who can't be bothered entering their credit card number to set up an amazon or paypal account but can be bothered setting up an origin account can fuck right off.
It just feels like the net affect of this well intentioned thread will be charities losing money.

Are you American?

No. Why?

Just trying to understand your psychological, systematic and philosophical base for why you would assume its wrong to give free numbers out to people. Your mentality seems to align itself with neo-conservatism in America. It was just a first guess. Heres another question: I am sure you would love to give your family or friends presents if you can regardless of their economic situation (ie: Birthdays, holidays, anniversaries or other special occasions), correct?

As I said earlier, my issue would be with the people using the keys rather than those who are giving them away. I'm not sure how you got neo-con from that but anyway, to answer your question (and I think I can see where this is going) yes of course I would.
