Let’s Talk About Games

[email protected]

We’ve got some great gaming communities on Lemmy for sure, but with LTAG I wanted to create a space to allow for players to come together to discuss games, the community around them and the ways in which we play, interact and consume them.

If that sounds like your sort of thing then head on over. We’ve got shortbread and builders tea on tap.

I tried to start up almost exactly this over at [email protected] but it never really took off. Best of luck to you! I definitely agree Lemmy needs this kind of space.

FAQ:

Q: Why do I get a 404?

A: At least one user in an instance needs to search for a community before it gets fetched. Searching for the community will bring it into the instance and it will fetch a few of the most recent posts without comments. If a user is subscribed to a community, then all of the future posts and interactions are now in-sync.

Q: When I try to create a post, the circle just spins forever. Why is that?

A: This is a current known issue with large communities. Sometimes it does get posted, but just continues spinning, but sometimes it doesn’t get posted and continues spinning. If it doesn’t actually get posted, the best thing to do is try later. However, only some people seem to be having this problem at the moment.
