!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.

Who gives a fucking shit about this nonsense? I just want games I paid for to work after the developer stops supporting them.

Maybe you don't, because you're a moron.

I don't think you should be calling other people "moron" if you don't understand the phrase "devil's advocate".

First off, I only called them a moron on a condition, and I stand by my assessment.

Second, playing devil's advocate is meant to enhance discussion. What they're doing is muddying the discourse and playing into the hands of copyright-holders. It's very close to the "just asking question" bullshit that's so prevalent recently.
