!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.

Are we sure we want this? Here is an indie game dev I trust going through why this petition is a bad idea.

EDIT: OP has shown me that Code Monkey has a counterargument to Thor's argument. I don't find it super convincing personally, but I highly recommend people watch both and make up your own minds.

and here is a different indie game dev giving his perspective on why Thor is wrong: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I_XhfY5qSbg

Thanks, I'll add that link to my comment too. I think it's important for people considering signing this to have all available information. Those arguments did not convince me, but I think it's only fair to make it clear there are counterarguments.
