I’ve seen this a few times, ca you explain this to me? Is it a way of talking about people that consider themselves capital G gamers without having them come in and ruin the conversation with whining or gamergate bs?

It’s just pretending Gamer is a slur, that’s it.

It’s not a slur, but I’m doing everything in my power to turn it into one

I support this movement

Gotcha, thanks!

It’s a joke about writing slurs and censoring them with an asterisk, implying Gamer is a slur

Ah gotcha, thanks. I will say, I don’t like being called a gamer because I don’t want to get lumped in with the whiny chuds so I get it

  • 1: No spam or advertising. This basically means no linking to your own content on blogs, YouTube, Twitch, etc.
  • 2: No bigotry or gatekeeping. This should be obvious, but neither of those things will be tolerated. This goes for linked content too; if the site has some heavy “anti-woke” energy, you probably shouldn’t be posting it here.
  • 3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.
