I couldn’t figure out how to message the mods (or even individual users) on my app. A space to discuss the survey and your post would be nice.


Edit: Got mod approval to keep this up

    Yeah I understand what you’re saying, but by dumbing / watering it down you would then be stating, unironically, what the joke is making fun of. In my mind, “PC Master Race” both states that yes, “PC is best”, but also makes fun of ourselves explicitly so that we don’t take it too seriously.

      I see, indeed the humorous part should be preserved. As I’m a bit lazy, I asked ChatGPT for suggestions with “Glorious” in it, here are its answers:

      • The Glorious PC Gaming Order
      • The Glorious PC Gaming Guild
      • The Glorious PC Gaming Legion
      • The Glorious PC Gaming Society

      Glorious Gaming Guild would be G³, and kind of have the same vibe as PCMR, what do you think?

        G3 does sound pretty cool. ChatGPT is definitely better at coming up with new names than I. Since I’m an oldie now, I remember leet speak was super popular when I was a kid growing up with the internet.

        Not sure how PC L33T Gamers would be received these days with all these young ragamuffins and their tik toks.
