Kotaku in actio1/6/2024 KotakuInAction is built around a core focus on reasonable, friendly discussion of the issues related to gaming culture, and those involved in it. It is a community that allows the exchange of information, supports the ongoing discussion of media ethics, and protects the right of the individual to embrace their personal interests in entertainment and fandom. It is a community that organizes to hold the media accountable to the concept of artistic freedom by standing up for the artist, the developer, the writer, the filmmaker, and all who enjoy the freedom to create, explore, and expand. KotakuInAction is a community that condemns willful censorship, exclusion, harassment, and abuse. We believe much of the current media is complicit in the proliferation of an ideology that squashes individuality, divides along political lines, and is stifling to the freedom of creativity that is the foundation of human expression. We have observed numerous incidents involving conflicts of interest and agenda-pushing within media which we feel are damaging to the credibility of the medium and harm the community at large. We believe that the current standards of ethics in the media have alienated the artists, developers, and creators who perpetuate the things we love, enjoy, and enthusiastically build communities around. ![]() KotakuInAction is a platform for open discussion of the issues where gaming, nerd culture, the Internet, and media collide. ![]() Also, we need to do something about the character limit that's forcing me to put half of this into a sticky, so.SEE STICKY! Please bear with us as things are still very much under construction. For the moment we're allowing some shitposting and general partying, but at least now we'll have something to point to when someone goes too far past the line and needs a smack. As you can clearly tell, THIS IS NOT DONE, we haven't even gotten started on figuring out how much of rule 3 we're gonna that the admins are off our backs. So here's our mission statement, a basic description of what this place is for, and our half-finished rules still full of less-broken-than-I-thought-it-would-be reddit CSS and placeholder text. So we're getting quite a few new and lapsed users, and more than one person has asked us just exactly what KIA is. I'll try to keep everyone updated on the progress of things, though some parts will be mostly self-evident as they happen (like the return of the banner/sidebar). Please be patient with us as we get things in gear. Automod is not completely operational here, but will be in the very near future to make that all a bit easier to deal with. We will try to get a more complete listing of the newly modified rules up soon, as well as get them listed/linked on the Sidebar and such. Rules are generally going to be the same here as they were on /r/kotakuinaction, but we are thinning them out a bit as some rules no longer need to apply here due to different sitewide rules/TOS from above lifting some restrictions we had to deal with. ![]() We actively encourage anyone who wants to coexist on both sites to do so, and have no issue with folks who have finally had enough of reddit's bullshit that decide to make the move here completely now. ![]() Our CSS is a work-in-progress due to some major differences from how reddit was set up, so that will be coming, it will just look a bit barebones until then.įor the time being we still consider /r/kotakuinaction to be our primary site, but will be building this up as a proper backup over time. This site is fully functional, just a bit limited on some things as we get all the backend worked out. Well, looks like we are launching a bit earlier than originally planned.
