badposting is a comm where you post badly


This is not a !the_dunk_tank@hexbear.net alternative. This is not a !memes@hexbear.net alternative. This is a place for you to post your bad posts.

Ever had a really shitty bit idea? Joke you want to take way past the point of where it was funny? Want to feel like a stand-up comedy guy who's been bombing a set for the past 30 minutes straight and at this point is just saying shit to see if people react to it? Really bad pun? A homemade cringe concoction? A cognitohazard that you have birthed into this world and have an urge to spread like chain mail?


Rules:

  1. Do not post good posts.
    • Unauthorized goodposting is to be punished in the manner of commenting the phrase "GOOD post" followed by an emoji that has not yet been used in the thread
    • Use an emoticon/kaomoji/rule-three-abiding ASCII art if the rations run out
  2. This is not a comm where you direct people to other people's bad posts. This is a comm where you post badly.
  3. This rule intentionally left blank.
  4. If you're struck for rule 3, skill issue, not allowed to complain about it.

Code of Conduct applies just as much here as it does everywhere else. Technically, CoC violations are bad posts. On the other hand: L + ratio + get ~~better~~ worse material bozo

In my travels I have noticed these gamer archetypes

The person who plays 1 game forever: you’ve done nothing wrong i just dont like you for reasons i cant explain

The Nintendo only gamer: same as above but you also smell like poo

The competitive gamer: scum

The cosy gamer: too close to the plays 1 game forever except you might play 2 games

The completionist: you have problems

Fighting game players: theyre just like competitive gamers but also covered head to toe in fecal matter and piss

Gamers: ontologically evil

PC gamers: turbo scum

Console gamers: freezer full of totinos pizza rolls

Board gamers: sexy sex sex sexy awoooga awoooga, they got that new board game smell

Mobile gamers: ….

Farmville players: gigachad

First of all, GOOD post downbear

Also, in my experience, Nintendo gamers are more like the Disney adults of gamers. And they usually have okay hygiene, if only because they want to keep their shelves of collectables presentable.

I especially hate the gamer that played with my heart.

im the pirate guy who plays games sometimes: i download the games, i install them which takes longer than it does for me to play and realize its a piece of shit and im glad i didn't waste money, and then i delete it. rinse and repeat

I feel like there's a difference between people who simply like games and maybe even play them as a hobby, and Gamers™. Gamers are the fucking worst.
