If we want this to be constructive, I've watched many of the thread enough. There are reasons why some might derep you. Whether the degree is justified, whether your redemption should be more or less, those are matters for argument.
Not let me preface this, I'm not judging who you might be now. If you have reformed, or if you learn from what I'm about to say. This is a caring community and I'm sure they will turn their opinion around. But here is a list of questionable things I recall that may have led to your current rep situation.
1) "Stalking" the free gifts and thread drops. By this I mean the following. Get a game, thank them and walk away from the threads. Nothing loses people rep faster than being known as the guy who wins a game and then for the next 8 hours this same person either wins more games, tries to win more games, thanking people for drops (which is a good thing but not when it shows that you are still stalking the thread). When you win a game, you could try downloading it and playing it for the rest of that day. A worse case was qPKillerqP who would stalk the thread win multiple games grabbing every free code he could and then make statements like "I can't help it if I type fast. Isn't this being a good ninja?" All I'm saying here is, when you win something, make yourself scarce from the thread for awhile.
2) Take 1 Give 1 basic etiquette. Is a general rule, the game you leave ought to be a game not currently on the giveaway list. It should also not be a free or virtually free game unless you are taking the same. There was a moment you tried to pull back a game less than a day after you left it and it was the second copy of the same game on the list. There was another time you left two of the same game that you admitted you got for free through Tremorgames just hours apart for two games you took. People can judge these things and if they see this a lot they see you as greedy and might honestly derep you. As above, think before you take, is it at least in the ballpark of a fair trade? Are you putting up a game that someone might want? If another copy hasn't been taken yet, chances are your second copy isn't all that desirable either.
3) Don't make promises you don't plan on keeping. A number of times you've said you'd be gone for a week or won't take games for a week and the next day you were back at it. It's hard to trust and like people who break their own word.
It's these sort of things that have gotten you a bad reputation. To clean it up, you need to reform. Don't get me wrong, I've seen some effort. You've gotten mildly better. You started a nice giveaway. In my opinion I see some hope for you. Especially the fact you are willing to ask what you might have done wrong in threads such as this. I don't hold grudges, but I tend to be blunt and say what I see and think. This may come off as a bit harsh, but I hope you take it as constructive criticism.
