!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.

See that's a great story, i worry things like that will have gone by the way side now.

I remember in halo accidentally shooting a team mate and crouching to apologise.

Weirdly in games that bought in waving etc, Day-Z etc if someone crouches i trust it if someoe waves i know they're going to shoot my in the back

Yeah. Elden Ring applies to the waves too. Bows and crouches? Respect. Waves? They're gonna be a toxic prick.

“Try jumping.”

That fucking message is either a long walk back or some good loot. God i love elden ring but i really hate the messages on the ground.

Halo Crouching was really up in the air, though.

From an enemy, it could be a sign of trust. It could also be a taunt, telling you what to expect.

From a teammate, it could be "Wait, someones ahead", or it could be "Imma kill him as he teabags you, and then Imma teabag both of you."

You just never knew.
