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.

I never understood how better equipment that is more ergonomically centric isn't something many eSports enthusiasts invest it especially at a professional level. Looking at that hurts.

I don't understand why gaming keypads like the Razer Tartarus didn't really take off. Feels so much better to game on than stretching your pinky to hold Ctrl to crouch.

Because they're kids, and probably poor too. When I was younger I played so much CS 1.6 that I seriously considered going pro. The setup I had then would probably literally kill me now, but when I was a teenager I didn't feel it at all. I could work with anything so long as I had my trusty MX518.
