Gaming Forums Safari: Pokemon Snap but with Posting!

Eye of Widesauron: Mar 29, 2014

When looking for gaming advice no longer do you have to rely on lovely guides that ask you to "check out playonline.com" every 5 seconds to see if you can find Steiner's magic codpiece or whatever. We have several gaming forums to choose from such as the steam forums, various subreddits, gamefaqs, even this site itself! There are also probably weird ones for poo poo like stormfront gaming or whatever.

To keep it in the spirit of gaming I'd like to make this like a game we can all play. Remember pokemon snap? Where you took pictures of funny looking beasts doing funny things? This is like that but the funny looking beasts are gamers and the funny things they're doing are posts on stuff like the official steam forums.

Screencaps are good; any dumbass can copy and paste poo poo. Also keep any personal information out of it. That poo poo's creepy and weird and no one cares if some degenerate likes a page on facebook or whatever. If you do post something give us some context; just a picture of a steam forums thread calling someone a "dirty mulatto who did 9/11 and hosed his mom" doesn't tell us anything. If you have any witty commentary about whatever's posted cool.

Don't post anything retarded that will get you banned or probated. There's an autoban option for that if you just really have to do that.

I guess I can be professor Oak or whatever and I can rate your pics and be confused about your gender or something.

This came from a private board I go to. Its about that hotbutton game Hatred. It complains about SJWs, North Koreans, and liberals all in one concise post

We could just screencap that as a bad meta joke then keep going until we have a hall of mirrors effect.

Let's kick this off then with a relatively harmless one from the Steam forums:

Context? This was a thread OP. Yeah.

To be fair, that whole thread is probably ripe for this sort of thing.

I can't determine that poster's gender since as a pokemon professor I am unable to do so without input from the player but I giggled at that post so therefore this definitely counts towards the completion of your Forums Safari Game.

Yeah, there's an off topic forum, in both the old forum and the new hub's separate forums. I don't know why they both operate concurrently.

Nope! The SA Starbound thread. If you want to contribute to this thread and don't know where to look, that whole thread will work just fine.

I have over 100 hours in Payday 2 and often enjoy using the saw on bulldozers. I have not played with that new expansion pack though but if she steps on my boy Hoxton's balls we're gonna have some problems.

To cut stalking off before it starts? It's not really "personal information" but I'd rather leave it out anyway.
