!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.

Nah, screw that if you have space. Yeah, you can run out off space, but keep things organized and throw out the oldest first. Some assholes will only honor a warranty with original packaging.

You may need to move, and original packaging usually protects better than random boxes.

You might want to gift something older, and original packaging helps.

Reselling with original packaging gets quicker responses and (sometimes) better prices, no matter how good the condition is.

If whatever it is becomes collectible/valuable, original packaging almost always increases price.

Keep that shit at least a year, if you have room at all, even if you have to open the box up and fold it flat.
