- 1: No spam or advertising. This basically means no linking to your own content on blogs, YouTube, Twitch, etc.
- 2: No bigotry or gatekeeping. This should be obvious, but neither of those things will be tolerated. This goes for linked content too; if the site has some heavy "anti-woke" energy, you probably shouldn't be posting it here.
- 3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.

Reminds me of the disenchant comic:

I wonder if game designers realize that this actually fucks people like me up, if i get an item that is said to have sentimental value i'm going to put that in a chest and ignore it because i don't have the heart to sell it and have it just get atomized when the vendor's inventory refreshes.
I love Enderal for actually letting you hand over some items you get early on, you can totally just ignore them or sell them but if you're like me and have the instinct to keep sentimental items then you get to be absolutely flabberghasted when you realize the game accounts for this.
Yeah, sometimes it's weird - for example when a king gives you a sword that has been in his family for generations, you go to the merchant and it's not worth more than something you looted on a bandit.
Seen that in Witcher 3.
This is worse than salvaging
