!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.

I go into ranked modes to chill with games I enjoy. Why? I am (in games with a good ranking system) placed into games with others who play at about my skill level, which makes the game more fun - and I can usually play a full game in ranked, whereas people are more likely to quit early or just not try at all in quick play modes. Do people complain if I'm not meta? Sometimes, sure - but I just think about how they're still the same rank as me anyways and I don't sweat it too much. Its fun.
