!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.

I can be somewhat of a purist myself.

I played Skyrim and found an exploit to increase speech to 100. I just had to cancel the conversation at a certain place and restart it.

I did that for hours instead of just typing a console command. "Can't have cheating!" πŸ˜… Don't bother with the fact that the end result is exactly the same, and it's still a form of cheating.

Glitches and exploiting them is one of the fun of gaming. Especially when it's a glitch that's been around for 13 years because the gsme studio is incompetent. At that point it's just a game mechanic.
