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!

    Pictures are allowed as long as it starts a useful discussion. This is because a picture can be helpful in supporting the question or statement.

    And beyond that. For moderators on Lemmy, there’s pretty little that can be done. We can delete comments and posts, ban someone and lock a post to the community page. That is all there is to it.

      Are we pretending that this sort of garbage is going to start a useful discussion? It’s 100% circlejerk material.

        I think that would qualify as a meme though ;).

        As stated in the post. Memes posted before the new rules will remain.
