These are the end times
There was no hope of survival
This is how you died
Project Zomboid, so pretty fucked!

Be nice. Assume others have good intent (within reason).

Moderator Guidelines
Moderator Guidelines
- Don’t be mean to users. Be gentle or neutral.
- Most moderator actions which have a modlog message should include your username.
- When in doubt about whether or not a user is problematic, send them a DM.
- Don’t waste time debating/arguing with problematic users.
- Assume the best, but don’t tolerate sealioning/just asking questions/concern trolling.
- Ask another mod to take over cases you struggle with, if you get tired, or when things get personal.
- Ask the other mods for advice when things get complicated.
- Share everything you do in the mod matrix, both so several mods aren't unknowingly handling the same issues, but also so you can receive feedback on what you intend to do.
- Don't rush mod actions. If a case doesn't need to be handled right away, consider taking a short break before getting to it. This is to say, cool down and make room for feedback.
- Don’t perform too much moderation in the comments, except if you want a verdict to be public or to ask people to dial a convo down/stop. Single comment warnings are okay.
- Send users concise DMs about verdicts about them, such as bans etc, except in cases where it is clear we don’t want them at all, such as obvious transphobes. No need to notify someone they haven’t been banned of course.
- Explain to a user why their behavior is problematic and how it is distressing others rather than engage with whatever they are saying. Ask them to avoid this in the future and send them packing if they do not comply.
- First warn users, then temp ban them, then finally perma ban them when they break the rules or act inappropriately. Skip steps if necessary.
- Use neutral statements like “this statement can be considered transphobic” rather than “you are being transphobic”.
- No large decisions or actions without community input (polls or meta posts f.ex.).
- Large internal decisions (such as ousting a mod) might require a vote, needing more than 50% of the votes to pass. Also consider asking the community for feedback.
- Remember you are a voluntary moderator. You don’t get paid. Take a break when you need one. Perhaps ask another moderator to step in if necessary.

Stardew valley is basically what I want out of my life, so I might not leave
Same game and same thought. You mean I get to be a multimillionaire farmer girl who's dating every single eligible bachelor(ette) in the valley simultaneously? I'd give my million dollar prize back if it means I get to stay.
Minecraft. Honestly, send me into the wilderness where I can build a little log cabin by a lake, make furniture, and live off the land. And the only people around are some zombies who don't try to talk to you. Keep your million.

I think I would enjoy an entire year in The Stanley Parable tbh
It's BUCKET TIME!!
I'm well travelled, own several starships, and am mostly fluent in gek. Of course I have to fend off daily attacks by pirates and sentinels.
Damn it's been a couple of years since I last played NMS... Should probably try to hop back in to see what kind of updates there's been. Probably a ton

As a Forza addict, I think I'll be just fine.
Until you inevitably crash at high speed and die gruesomely
I don't even need to drive. I could just hang out in Tokyo for a year.
Until someone inevitably crashes into you at high speed and you both die gruesomely 😉

My last game was StarCraft so I'd be dead via ling rush within the first three minutes.
Edit: StarCraft 2
Depends on how Night City treats me. Not sure I wanna chromed for a year's stay.
It tends to treat everyone except a few corpos pretty damn awfully, in fact..

Project zomboid on easy settings (low amount of zombies, zombies are dumb, high amount of loot and easy skill gain). I'd take it. Even regular settings would be a dream in comparison to dealing with state violence, so I'd be pretty happy.

It’s rimworld.
I don’t want to be a cannibal.
That's fine, but know one day the straw that will break you will be you will be your lack of a dinner table.
You can scavenge berries, but the only available hats are... Let's call them "locally sourced."
Overwatch. It looks fun from the outside, but I'm forced to participate in short matches where I repeatedly die, come back and kill cute yet soulless people all day long, for a year.
I started eating people on day 3. There is a hole were my humanity used to be. A hole that can only be filed by trembling, bloody, screaming flesh. The hamster was first. He was easy. Then, month after month, I got through the rest of the roster, each one with a different bottle of wine from the Paris deathmatch map. Now my appetite, form and spirit have grown beyond what is humanly conceivable. When the map loads and they see me, they all run and shriek as my many mouths start tearing through their ever fresh, juicy bodies. As if they too were starting to remember their unending, inescapable demise.
One day it will end, but in the meantime I need to feel their bones break and heartbeats fade on my tongues. Such delicious marrow. Such delicious broth.

As long as Ghandi doesn’t nuke me I’m good
Outer Wilds.
In 22 minutes I and everyone else am dead.
07 make it count friend
Civilization. I can't escape it.

Warframe for me. I don't think I would have very good chances of making through a whole year.
Hang out on a relay and hope it doesn't get blown up I suppose. Or be Valkyr.
Pretty good, tbh. I've been playing Palworld and I think I'd do okay, even if I got dropped into a permadeath server. Yeah you gotta grind, but you don't really have to do much of anything, the pals do basically everything for you.

I’m ok with it. Gotta catch em all
Game I've been playing the last couple of days is high-ish-magic medieval-style fantasy, which isn't the worst world to live in. Question is whether the protagonists have been through the area yet, otherwise there's nonzero risk of dying from supernatural creature attack or evil cults, on top of goblins and orcs which probably aren't any worse than historic "barbarian" attacks but deadly all the same.

So I get a million dollars and I'm stuck in a house banging 6 women for a year. I think my wife would wonder where I disappeared to for a year but the million would probably smooth things over.

If it means to completion, then Paper Mario would be pretty cozy. If just last game played, SuperTux would be nice too. Yay! :3
I like that people assume they'll be the main character and not just a random NPC.
For instance in GTA you might just have your current life while some gangsters buy burgers.

Seems that would be Anomalous Coffee Machine. I guess that would depend on which character’s place I have to take
Baldur's Gate 3...
Yeah, I'd take that bet.
It was Ultrakill. Here's the intro text of this game for context:
> Mankind is dead.
> Blood is fuel.
> Hell is full.
I don't think I'm surviving an hour there, lol.
I'm a chess piece.
Let's play a really slow game here...
Stardew Valley? I mean... Sure.
You mean I can like, be in VrChat? Like my character, and my friends, and all these amazing places to go to? Dude sign me up, that's my escape from reality.

Persona 5, so deeply pessimistic, cynical japan
I would find it very... Satisfactory.
Kerbal Space Program. I'll probably die but at least I'll (likely) get to see space and go out in a blaze of glory
You'll sit in a capsule for all that time in interplanetary space or abandoned on the surface of some celestial body. Pray that there's no life support mods installed. In any case, you'll go mad
