Valve banned 100% discount

That Dev is lying to cover his rear he made a promise he had no intent to keep and so now that he was called out this is the bogus story he created to get out of it.

I would like your words to be true.
Because then it will be sad, although game developers can always give out their keys here on AWA

I read that and, was not actually sure, what has happened?

Dev write:
"Originally, I've promised that once I've set this game to paid, I'd give people a 100% discount for a chance for people to own it. I've contacted Steam on changing the game from free to paid as well as to also to set a 100% discount to allow people to own the game for free as soon as possible, but I've learned that they don't allow discounts at 100% on paid games, so I've messed up here."

As far I understand, DEV gave the game free, then he wanted to put a price-tag to it, eg.10$? And then he wanted to put it to market with 100% discount??
I really hope, I did not understan that correctly! :)

IMHO: Thtats just stupid!! :)
