!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.

Can't wait to have nursing home LAN parties

We look forward to having your father in our facility. We're sure he'll like it here at Shady Acres.

What accommodations will he need with us here?

  • Is he mobile and can walk on his own or does he need a walker or a wheel chair?
  • What is his medication schedule?
  • What genre of games does he play? RPG, FPS, RTS?
  • Is he an angry gamer? Do we need to stock extra controllers/keyboards because he throws a fit when he gets headshot like a bitch?
  • Is he a spawn camping piece of shit?
  • Do we need to worry about him griefing or tea bagging everyone?
  • Will he buy a Defuse kit and "rush B" if he has the bomb?
  • Can you provide a list of skins he owns in various games?
  • Can he use Push-to-talk or not breath into the goddamn mic when on voice chat or discord?
  • Is he good at trash talking where his burns are witty and on-point, or does he just scree into the chat with nonsensical garbage like a fucking child?

I'm honestly not sure how that will help the situation but, at the same time, it's worth a shot.

This only worked in WoW trade chat, but I always loved saying "Holy shit, have you seen the new /camp animation?"

"Hold alt and type equipment" was a favourite of mine.
