!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.

NPC: hey buddy I know you just killed the world ending dragon but my shoe string broke and it would be dangerous to for me to walk to the other side of town to get a replacement string. Can you go get me the string? If you do this for me I give you an item that you have an inventory full of that you won't use because you are saving them all for a tougher fight, even after beating the secret ultra hard boss and the final boss but there might still be a need.

Me: hell yes I'll get your shoe string on the other side of the world if I had to. Don't worry about giving me any money I maxed that out hours ago and can't find anything to spend it on. Sure I'll take the item, you never know when you might land in a fight where a potion that heal 1% saves me. Sorry about not talking to you 100 hours ago your character model looked kind of plain so I didn't think you would have quest for me.

Me: I'll be back in 20 to 30 minutes.

Also me: I know it's only been 48 seconds, but I'm back with 2 shoelaces because, ya know, just in case.
