Hi all!
From now on, memes are forbidden on c/Games.
A few days ago, we asked you what you like: memes or no memes. From this, the vast majority voted for a ban on posting memes. The most common argument was to guard the quality of the posts. This will therefore be enforced from now on. Are memes being posted? Please report them to the mods.
The memes currently posted on the community will remain.
From today, we are also introducing an additional rule: It is forbidden to hold give-aways. We as a mod team cannot verify if the give-away is real or if it is a scam. To ensure everyone's safety, we have decided not to allow these posts either. If there is a need for this, we recommend creating a separate community for this.
We would like to thank everyone for the many votes and well-founded arguments in the discussion topic.
Cheers!
I voted for no memes, and I'm really glad we got that, but one thing I want to mention is that it'd be good to have a /c/gamingmemes or something to redirect people to, rather than just a closed "no memes here". There's definitely an appetite for that content, and it seems gentler if there's another community they can be directed to.
(I thought about creating it myself but I've never really liked gaming meme pages, so I don't think I'd be good at hosting one ๐ )
