Beware of trading scammers!

A subreddit for anything related to games (but not sports). "Related" means that posts must contain gaming-related content in the link/post body, not just a "forced" connection via the title or a caption added to the content.

"Generic" image macros/memes (where the character itself is not related to gaming) like Scumbag Steve, Good Guy Greg, etc. will be removed. Something that "reminds you of a game", or "looks like something from a game" is also not an appropriate submission.

Imagine the faerie stuck in a jar, just waiting with nothing else for that moment when you are called upon to sacrifice yourself, never complaining.

[–]morpheousmarty 5 points6 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

It's a well known fact faeries are huge whores, so they probably have a great time. It's probably a lot worse for Link seeing as the bottle would probably break at the worst possible time.

And you open the jar by accident, when you only had half a heart of damage. The faerie's body and soul is consumed, so you can heal a papercut.

Hello, my name is Becky Ofori and I recently have been placed wrongly in jail. I was told by your sister that you could help! You see, I have ~2000 karma waiting to repay you IMMEDIATELY if you can upvote me at "RYN3O" just once to prove that I'm not guilty of the crimes I've committed!

If you wouldn't mind, you can also send me your password to your karma account as well, it will make the transaction easier!

FROM: Dr Muka Muka Central Bank of Nigeria Lagos, Nigeria 01-658-21-2658

TO: YOU!

Dear Sir:

I have been requested by the Nigerian National Karma Company to contact you for assistance in resolving a matter. The Nigerian National Karma Company has recently concluded a large number of karma for exploration in the sub-Sahara region. The contracts have immediately produced karma equaling US$40,000,000. The Nigerian National Karma Company is desirous of karma exploration in other parts of the world, however, because of certain regulations of the Nigerian Government, it is unable to move these funds to another region.

You assistance is requested as a non-Nigerian citizen to assist the Nigerian National Karma Company, and also the Central Bank of Nigeria, in moving these funds out of Nigeria. If the funds can be transferred to your name, in your United States account, then you can forward the funds as directed by the Nigerian National Karma Company. In exchange for your accommodating services, the Nigerian National Karma Company would agree to allow you to retain 10%, or US$4 million of this karma.

However, to be a legitimate transferee of these moneys according to Nigerian law, you must presently be a depositor of at least US$100,000 in a Nigerian bank which is regulated by the Central Bank of Nigeria.

If it will be possible for you to assist us, we would be most grateful. We suggest that you meet with us in person in Lagos, and that during your visit I introduce you to the representatives of the Nigerian National Karma Company, as well as with certain officials of the Central Bank of Nigeria.

Please call me at your earliest convenience at 18-467-4975. Time is of the essence in this matter; very quickly the Nigerian Government will realize that the Central Bank is maintaining this amount on deposit, and attempt to levy certain depository taxes on it.

Yours truly,

Prince Abu bu

True, but when you're trying to post a funny comic you might want to take a page out of /r/funny's book.

[–]ZenDragon 26 points27 points ago

So I decided to check out some of the other comics.

[–]twistedrapier 9 points10 points ago

Does it really matter? She has her own art style (so it's not like she traced his comic) and the joke is fairly obvious. Scott has also from time to time redone jokes (unintentionally) that other comics have used. It happens.

[–]ZenDragon 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

By the rest are okay I kind of meant I was dismissing that one coincidence because there's no other indication that she steals jokes. I really liked the rest of the comic archive and it seemed original. I wasn't even saying that she plagiarizes in the first places. Just making one of those little "Aha!" observations. I realize now some people beat me to it.

So is this like VGCats, but with updates?

Edit: Yes. Yes it is.

Edit 2: The first link posted here no longer shows what I intended--maybe the author changed it, I don't know. But the pouch displayed had this gamer cat character and a Pokémon ability list showing Eat, Sleep, Breathe, and Videogames--just as the VGCats comic shows.

[–]brucemanhero 12 points13 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

I live under this mentality that similar ideas, or even same ideas, can co-exist because people are not going to do the same idea the same way. For example I might write a story about a ninja, and then a week later you might write a story about a ninja. And while our stories might have some slight similarities, we're both approaching it differently.

But when plagiarism comes into play, that's something to be upset/disgusted/whatever about. Plagiarism is the real enemy in my eyes.
