!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 remember in the eighth grade (1990) taking a keyboarding class (old typewriters) and we would be given assignments to do holiday-themed (turkeys, Santa Claus, Easter bunny, etc) ascii art as projects around the holidays. We were given paper instructions that would guide us on how to type out each line and with what characters. It was actually pretty fun.
