Official replacement for Reddit's r/GamerGhazi
Content should be articles, video essays, podcasts about topics relevant to the forum. No memes, single images or tweets/toots/... please!
Community rules:
Be respectful and civil with each other. Don't be a jerk. There is a real human being on the other side of your screen. See also the Blahaj.Zone Community Rules
No bigotry of any kind allowed. Making racist, sexist, trans-/homo-/queerphobic, otherwise demeaning and hateful comments is not ok. Disabilities and mental illnesses are not to be used as insults and should not be part of your comment unless speaking of your own or absolutely relevant.
No gatekeeping and being rude to people who don't agree with you. Leave “gamer” stereotypes out of your comment (e.g. sexless, neck bearded, teenaged, basement-dwelling, etc). Don't compare people to animals, or otherwise deny their humanity. Even if you think someone is the worst human on the planet, do not wish death or harm upon them.
No "justice porn". Posts regarding legal action and similar is allowed, but celebrating someone being harmed is not.
Contrarianism for its own sake is unnecessary and not welcome.
No planning operations, no brigading, no doxxing or similar activities allowed.
Absolutely no defense of GamerGate and other right-wing harassment campaigns, no TERFs and transphobia, racism, dismissing of war crimes and praise of fascists. This includes “JAQing off”, intentionally asking leading questions while pretending to be a neutral party. This also applies to other forms of authoritarianism and authoritarian or criminal actions by liberal or leftist governments.
NSFW threads, such as ones discussing erotic art, pornography and sex work, must be tagged as such.
Moderators can take action even if none of the rules above are broken.

MODERATORS
They're moderated by the dev and publisher and they have the ability to grant moderator status to anyone for their games.
So basically they aren't moderated at all. Also steam community forums by Valve themselves almost always without exception have shit moderation. Even if Valve did also do it, I have little confidence they would address the issue.
No company is capable of moderating all of the things a parent wants to keep from a child. That has to be a household controlled issue, and it takes a lot of work to monitor what your kid is doing. It is the same as anything connected to the internet. Some people are crazy/mean/bad influences/dangerous. No moderation will be perfect, so it is more important to understand what your kid is doing and give them guidance. Otherwise, ban them from interacting entirely.
Maybe so, but I don't think it's too much to ask that they moderate things that would be moderated on Reddit or even Facebook. Like give people permanent community bans for illegal shit, death threats, Nazism, things that would get you permanent community bans on other platforms. Not being like or worse than 4chan isn't asking a lot.
