!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.

Screenrant, comicbook and CBR are trash

Why? What exactly is trash on those? I don't read those sites, so asking in curiosity.

Clickbait AI written trash

For.example you'll see an article named something like "New Zelda Game Coming Next Month" and they'll show Windwaker making you think Nintendo finally pulled thair head out of their ass and ported Windwaker HD... Only to find out it's some fucking card game

Or you'll see an article named something like "It's the end of an era for a beloved Nintendo IP" and they'll put that one stupid Mario Odyssey screenshot where Mario's mouth is open that every fuckin clickbating creator uses...and you find out it's Mario Kart Tour mobile shutting down

It's probably the AI but all these sites are addicted to putting "beloved" or "end of an era" in their article titles to get you to click them
