Chat is a text only community for casual conversation, please keep shitposting to the absolute minimum. This is intended to be a separate space from c/chapotraphouse or the daily megathread. Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.

As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.

Thank you and happy chatting!

I think the one that peeves me a little is "D&D" for "RPG". Please play a different RPG

oh that won't necessarily fix anything. my friends also refer to our call of cthulhu and paranoia games as "playing dnd" - it really has started to mean any rpg in the same way that "photoshop" just means any photo editing
