!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.

Is the hat a metaphor for something?

Or the steam clown emoji all the terrible posts on the forms get?

Maybe for game companies who sell on steam and then the game launches into another launcher?

Consider valve's lasting legacy and primary method of monetizing their games. (It was always about the hats)

I remember not long after hats came out, they did this thing where if you didn't use a hack or tool to get hats they give you a Halo hat.

I got the Halo hat about two days after using a tool, it unlocked all hats within a minute.
