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.

The idea that limiting consumption can control production is a capitalist lie that makes us believe that voting with our dollar is the only valid expression of dissent. But also piracy is good and based 🤷
Honestly I think its value comes from the act of humiliating evil game execs. It’s not much, but it’s fun propaganda and the whole point is that it’s free propaganda. “Normally I’d buy this on release, but Bobby Kotick‘s of piece of shit, so I’ll be pirating it instead”
