Hello PCMR community!

On July 13th, we asked the community for your opinion if you would like to change the name of this community.

Results of the Survey :

  • Yes - 28.1%
  • No - 71.9% (winner)

Of the 1,201 responses received, we as a community have democratically decided that we should not change the name from PC Master Race. I am grateful to our community for your input, as this was a difficult topic to navigate together.

If you would like to review the history of this, please check out this post here: https://lemmy.world/post/1430610

We’ll pin this post for some time and then consider adding a bullet into the sidebar for this Community to help stave off further discussions around this topic as the community has already decided collectively.

Kind regards,

The Moderator Team

EDIT 30-Aug-2023:

Due to some of the recent targeted attacks against Lemmy.world, I noticed that the image I shared with this post was purged from their servers.

Here’s a new screenshot of the results for posterity: https://i.postimg.cc/jqNg5gWx/pcmrsurvey.png

    Yeah, go ahead and keep the nazi verbiage. That’s helping the image.

    I don’t think most people get that it was originally denigration of the elitist attitudes some PC players had and Yahtzee was making fun of them. And yet they use his imagery still. Y’all are bafflingly obtuse…or perhaps like the comparison? Can’t tell which is worse.

      Umm, that’s entirely the point. We aren’t celebrating fucking Nazis, we are making fun of them. Literally playing along with the joke Yahtzee made. The sub is literally playing along with the joke. I think you may be the one being obtuse

      If the image was so bad what the fuck were you doing here in the first place?

      Kindergarten is down the street, don’t let the door smack you on the ass on the way out.

      The only people who should feel offended are actual Nazis.
