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.


Posting Rules

  • Posts must be directly gaming-related. Thus, "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; similarly, reaction GIFs are also not appropriate as submissions.

  • Following Reddiquette is encouraged

  • No "general" URL shorteners (bitly, tinyurl, etc). Single-site URL shorteners (such as youtu.be or fav.me) are allowed.

  • No game or product giveaway of any kind

  • NSFW submissions and comments must be labeled

  • Spoilers can be posted using the following formatting:
    [X Kills Y](/spoiler)
    Result: X Kills Y.

  • To mark a spoiler as relevant to a specific game/topic, use the alternate formatting:
    [Player 1 wins](/spoiler "Pong")
    Result:
    Player 1 wins

  • Report posts containing spoilers not using the above method

  • Don't post users' personal information.

Submission Rules

Is your post not showing up? Do not delete it. Wait 5 minutes to give AutoModerator a chance to look at it; it approves most submissions automatically. If it hasn't shown up after more than 5 minutes, simply message the moderators and ask us to let it through.

This seems like common sense though, I bet numerous people who never played WoW would do the same thing

Agreed, but the concept has to be learned somewhere. In his case it was a video game. For others maybe a book, movie, or a role model.

Also he is 12. I probably would have cried and ran away if I were 12 and in this situation.

He's 17 now. This article came out in 2007.

What. I saw that boy yesterday in some other post. But yesterday his name was Adam, he was 12 years old, bi, did weed, and loved the Jonas brothers.

The point of re-posts is for the people that haven't seen it yet. You should maybe hit the hide button next time.

That depends on how you define 'taunt' within the game. A proper taunt (Taunt, Dark Command, etc.) will give you threat equal to the highest threat ally. However abilities like Distracting shot merely steal aggro for a few seconds. Of course I'm just being pedantic =p
