@the_gamer_tavern I really need to stop using "toss a coin to your admin" because I will hum it all day after writing it. Talk about an earworm from The Witcher TV show!

Help us name our new corvette in No Man's Sky!

@the_gamer_tavern

Hey everyone!
It is time to get a name for the official corvette of The Gamer's Tavern and we need your creativity.

Help us get a funny/punny name by suggesting one, commenting another.

Offensive and/or non inclusive names won't be considered of course, but we don't mind adult humorous names, in fact our Sea of Thieves' ships are called "Alotta Ocean", "Piece of ship" and "The Mast-a-Don"

GO!

@the_gamer_tavern

What we found being stable, being running and developed in different flavors since the '88 (hoooooly cow, feels like yesterday...) is IRC.

We dabbed with our own hosted server at irc.gamerstavern.online (port 6697) and I must say that, as simple as it could be, it is still a better system than Matrix.

In addition to that, to help our less-tech-savvy users, we also decided to host TheLounge, a neat client that help simplifying the usage of IRC and allows users to jump in chat with our community (both on IRC and Discord, being the two of them bridged with a self hosted tool), without the need of registering an user.

Feels too good to be true?
Jump in chat.gamerstavern.online and see for yourself ;)

We're discontinuing the hosting of Matrix

@the_gamer_tavern

Hey everyone. After some thoughts, and then again more thoughts, we decided to discontinue the hosting of our Matrix server at space.gamerstavern.online, and we will shut down the server at the start of December, to allow users who decided to register on our server to register with another server.

While we know that Discord won't be the place where our beloved community will hang out forever due to the enshittification route the company took, we also know that as it is, Matrix isn't an up-to-the-task alternative.

Throughout our self hosting journey we learnt that Matrix has:

  • an often over-complex moderation system and sometimes not up to the task;
  • a far too capillary permission system based on user ownership more than roles or groups;
  • a dev. group that tried to grow too much too fast, hence requiring the founding of a Foundation that took over;
  • deprecation of newly added functionalities (see the slidinc sync protocol) with them not being RCs but signaled as production-ready
  • general lack of basic functionalities;

Overall, what we're looking at, even in the group we're in outside TGT is that it's slowly turning into a ghost town, prone to spam (remember the big episode of a few months ago?)

As always, me and the staff are open to discuss this with anyone who would like to know more.

@EighthLayer @the_gamer_tavern
Dishonoured: British edition!

The game is quite good, forcing myself to do stealth is sometimes too frustrating but I'm getting the hang of it (and am terrible at applying the theory to the practice 😂)

[–] innkeeper@gamerstavern.online 1 points 9 months ago

@rowdyrockets oh no you're completely wrong, I'm extremely bad at stealth 😂

@DopeGhoti @the_gamer_tavern what's that on Jake's forehead? A crossbow dart? Hm, must have been the wind

proceeds to get slaughtered like Jake

STEALTH!

@therivercrow @the_gamer_tavern

Yes, emphasis on rookie.
Not that I do that every single time 👀

[–] innkeeper@gamerstavern.online 2 points 9 months ago (1 children)

@RebekahWSD I've seen me losing interest in the RPG at the end or halfway more than a few times due to accumulated fatigue (game too long, too hard, too whatever), so might this should be your reason too?

Or could it be that the game is so good you don't want to say goodbye to the characters?
