Rules:

1: No spam or advertising. This basically means no linking to your own content on blogs, YouTube, Twitch, etc.
2: No bigotry or gatekeeping. This should be obvious, but neither of those things will be tolerated. This goes for linked content too; if the site has some heavy "anti-woke" energy, you probably shouldn't be posting it here.
3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.

They could improve this so much by saying something like "the last 2 minutes and 24 seconds of unsaved progress will be lost" instead. Just need to keep a time counter from last save, that's not too much overhead.

There are even games that already do this. I still end up second-guessing, but at least "you last saved 8 seconds ago" makes me pretty sure I got it.
