!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.

Pictured: the worst of the worst Darktide experiences. It doesn’t happen often, but it can happen.

Sorry, clutch or kick its rules.

This isnt always valid excuse tbh. Ofcourse rushing and dying is bad, but if your team put together a strategy and you failed to even be there for that that strategy and are therefore left alive by yourself then that is lame of you.

Another reason to only play with multiplayer bots(AI-Controlled Players)

I never really played competitive shooters until Marvel Rivals. I'm just trying to play a game and people are screaming up and down about nothing.

I don't even play competitive, I play quick match and I usually try to swap roles to match the team comp.

I've been playing long enough that I try to stop people yelling at our own teammates. Although, it doesn't stop the enemy team from instigating.

Marvel Rivals devs admitted that they balance for casual play. Now that they’ve added pay to win “shields” so you can’t lower rank from losing make competitive a complete joke.

Yeah, I think it was crapped on universally by almost everyone.

I think most people are saying that they really need placements matches in Rivals for competitive.

I think I'm swapping to Expedition 33 for now though.
