!gaming is a community for gaming noobs through gaming aficionados. Unlike !games, we don’t take ourselves quite as serious. Shitposts and memes are welcome.
Our Rules:
1. Keep it civil.
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only.
2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry.
I should not need to explain this one.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month.
Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

There's more to it than that. It's not because Thor was publicly against SKG, it's because he misrepresented the entire situation to his much larger audience. The reason there's a big focus on this now instead of 9 months ago is because Ross (the creator of SKG) specifically didn't want it to become "youtuber drama". The reason it's happening now is because the SKG movement is almost over and has been struggling, and Ross put out a video explaining how Pirate Software mislead his audience and actively turned public perception against SKG right when it was building momentum.
And now it's YouTuber drama.
