DRAFT OP, including sections plagiarised from the gambling subforum:quote:Many video games, especially mobile games, are built around encouraging spending enormous amounts of money for slim chances at reward, whether through a loot box or gacha system. This can become a compulsion or addiction akin to gambling addiction, and this thread is host to resources for people who feel they have or are at risk of developing a problem. Feedback welcome.

Seems good to me, I don’t think it needs to be 100% perfect before going up. If there’s better gaming focused resources (beyond the tweaks you’ve already made) they can be suggested and edited in but even just the general resources there may prove helpful to anyone who finds themselves struggling.

Metis of the Hallways posted:If you feel it is necessary and would help you, admins can also remove your access to this subforum. Looks pretty great overall. Are admins the only ones that can be talked to or can Mods/IKs be contacted to move the issue up the line? It might also help to include a link or email address to these people for people who don't have PMs.

It would have to be an admin to actually press the buttons but going through a mod might make it easier to get the admin's attention

It might also help to include a link or email address to these people for people who don't have PMs. I can promise I will be around to do this now, as the new Games admin. I am very contactable. If anyone is requiring their access to things being removed temporarily I can help out. I feel very strongly about addiction and the way games can be predatory nowadays and if I can help someone by removing temptation then I absolutely will do so.

I love Games and just want it to be fun for all. Temporarily removing access to keep people happy is a really smart idea, as are help threads where people can see they can get assistance for things.

Congratulations VG. That said, please revert to just modding if admin-ing starts to drive you insane like it has done a number of others, because you're too good a mod to lose to burnout.

Thank you so much.  grieving for Gandalf posted:vg, are you just over games or can you be contacted for sitewide issues Primarily Games - (so games and all subs and trad games and all subs) but I absolutely can be contacted for sitewide issues. If it is a sitewide issue that I can help with then I absolutely will do my best. Or at least I can more easily get in contact with the people relevant and do my best to make sure things are heard and give time frames and work for you. Also I am not particular smart or knowledgeable about politics and other such stuff, so it may take me longer to understand what the problems are or historical related things are in other sections of the site. I have little experience with a ton of things outside of video games, movies and fiction books but I promise I will be available to attempt to make things right no matter how long it takes me to get to grips with things.
