!gaming is a community for gaming noobs through gaming aficionados. Unlike !games, we don’t take ourselves quite as serious. Shitposts and memes are welcome.

Our Rules:

1. Keep it civil.

Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only.

2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry.

I should not need to explain this one.

3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.

Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.

4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month.

Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

Review bombs are stupid and pointless. Especially in this case since most players are going through bnet and not steam.

Review bombs and "boycotts" are frustrating because it seems like the average player has the willpower of a hungry toddler. "Hey, don't buy this game. They make their developers work 20 hour days." -> "Oh yeah fuck them! ...ooh, but there's a shiny angel wing skin if I preorder? Well mmmmmmm well sure it's just $90 what does it hurt"

But I don't know. I'm kind of in a mood lately where I feel like I'm surrounded by overgrown toddlers.
