Welcome to the largest gaming community on Lemmy! Discussion for all kinds of games. Video games, tabletop games, card games etc.
1. Submissions have to be related to games
Video games, tabletop, or otherwise. Posts not related to games will be deleted.
This community is focused on games, of all kinds. Any news item or discussion should be related to gaming in some way.
2. No bigotry or harassment, be civil
No bigotry, hardline stance. Try not to get too heated when entering into a discussion or debate.
We are here to talk and discuss about one of our passions, not fight or be exposed to hate. Posts or responses that are hateful will be deleted to keep the atmosphere good. If repeatedly violated, not only will the comment be deleted but a ban will be handed out as well. We judge each case individually.
3. No excessive self-promotion
Try to keep it to 10% self-promotion / 90% other stuff in your post history.
This is to prevent people from posting for the sole purpose of promoting their own website or social media account.
4. Stay on-topic; no memes, funny videos, giveaways, reposts, or low-effort posts
This community is mostly for discussion and news. Remember to search for the thing you're submitting before posting to see if it's already been posted.
We want to keep the quality of posts high. Therefore, memes, funny videos, low-effort posts and reposts are not allowed. We prohibit giveaways because we cannot be sure that the person holding the giveaway will actually do what they promise.
5. Mark Spoilers and NSFW
Make sure to mark your stuff or it may be removed.
No one wants to be spoiled. Therefore, always mark spoilers. Similarly mark NSFW, in case anyone is browsing in a public space or at work.
6. No linking to piracy
Don't share it here, there are other places to find it. Discussion of piracy is fine.
We don't want us moderators or the admins of lemmy.world to get in trouble for linking to piracy. Therefore, any link to piracy will be removed. Discussion of it is of course allowed.

The page seems to be not working at the moment but keep on signing https://eci.ec.europa.eu/045/public/#/screen/home
To be clear... If you have already signed, thank you but do not sign again.
(I know that's not what you wanted to say, I just want to make sure it's not misunderstood).
Does it not stop you from signing multiple times? The UK one tells you you've already signed it when you try again. I tried it again recently in case i was misremembering signing the second petition after the first one was misunderstood completely by the uk government.
Oddly, the EU one just has a checkbox that you need to check to confirm that you haven’t signed before. I’m guessing removal of duplicates happens only after closing, along with other data validation.
I thought this strange at first too, but I think it’s because of the disparate identification methods in different countries. If everyone had a digital ID card instant checking would be doable, but note it probably isn’t.
That's not true. It depends on the country. In certain countries it will tell you if your identification number had been used before.
Interesting! I tried from a country that has an eID so it should be trivial to weed out duplicates, yet I got that checkbox.
Maybe it's a self report feature >.<
For the UK one it's just tied to your email address to prevent duplicates, and you just input your name and physical address which will be used to confirm you're actually a citizen.
Wait, what happened with the first one?
Parliament disbanded iirc
After giving such a bad answer to it that some other part of the government stepped in and said the answer was dramatically insufficient.
I'm not surprised it got a bad answer though. The government was completely dysfunctional by that point (and had been well over a year), I wouldn't be surprised if it was just some random civil servant who was just told to weave a fig leaf at it.
