In the course of human events there comes a time when we, as a culture, must come together – to unify our efforts and centralize our cause. We, the gaming community at large, stand at a great turning point in our history. We’ve experienced the decline of our identity, and felt the poisonous sting of corruption and won’t have it any longer.

We look forward and see a future that is being shaped by hands other than our own and express our unease to the powers at be, but to no avail. We’ve been painted as the great evil of our time; given names like misogynist, scum, patriarchs, rapist, and the list goes on. We’ve seen our hobby invaded by those who seek only to destroy it and to dismantle our culture.

It is time we took control of our destiny. It is time we forged our own path into the future. It is time we stood up against those who would seek to stamp us out and bid us goodnight. Together we can accomplish so much and bring about the next age for gaming – all we need to do is take that first step, come together as a unified community with a unified voice, and bear our fangs one good time.

“The Open Gaming Society stands as a home for all who would call themselves gamers. Send me your lonely, your hopeless, your introverted masses. Send me your weary, your cynical skeptics, and your tired few. Bring me your friends of all races, genders, and creeds. Bring them together in union and give them causeway to our home. Let them stand under our banner stretch their arms to the sky and grab hold of their futures. I give you strength and sound mind – stand at my back and let me be your shield. I will never waver, never falter, and never fear. I know you; I have seen your face and I know what needs to be done. Let me reach down and offer a hand to you and we’ll go together into tomorrow. Don’t lose hope my friends – it is when we reach our lowest point that we become open to the greatest change.”

Our time is not yet over. We still have much to do and new heights to reach. Let’s get there together as a “community” with one unified voice.

loving lol

Section 6. “Gamer” vs “Casual Gamer”
A “Gamer” is defined by our organization as any person that exhibits any combination of the following: vigorously
pursuing the hobby, devoting exorbitant amounts of time to playing a game or games and does so on a routine
basis (regardless of genre), developing games or game content, attending large gaming conventions and
events, playing competitively or professionally, or being sportsmanlike in both victory and defeat.

A “Casual Gamer” is defined by our organization as any person that exhibits any combination of the following:
casually pursuing the hobby, going long periods of time without playing a game or games (a week or longer)
and playing games infrequently, or expressing little to no interest in video games in general.

We hereby declare that all gamers shall be protected from discrimination and harassment and that it is the duty
of the Open Gaming Society to see this justice done. We will use whatever legal means necessary to achieve this
end.
In a court of law some portions of the doctrine may be used against gamers who have not adhered to the
doctrine or the five tenets. Gamers who have engaged in violent activity, levied death threats against individuals,
or who have been proven as harassers shall not be protected by the document and shall face full punishment
under the law of their country of residence. The doctrine may be used in the court hearings as evidence of the
gamer’s crimes.

I knew the name, that's just what I think of it as in my mind. It looks a lot easier and more scripted than monhun tbh, but maybe that's for the show and the real enemies pose a threat.
