Welcome to Game Podunk (GP), an exceptional online community dedicated to the gaming industry and to the people who play, read, and write about video games. Our mission is to inform and endorse the positive views around the culture of video games while working with our members to generate rich original content for meaningful discussions.
At Game Podunk, we offer a place for gamers to build a positive social identity, and to combat the many negative stereotypes broadcasted by the media and even some gaming sites today. In short, we respect gamers and want to set an example of how civil, fun, and intelligent a gaming site can be. This is why unlike other sites, you’ll find little or no acts of trolling, flaming, spamming, and immature comments from our members. We hope that’s good news to you, and that you’ll be interested to stay around and take part in what we’re doing here.
GP also takes pride in offering our readers quality content to carry on worthwhile discussions. We’ve been awarding our top contributors with exclusive deals, free game contests, and even cash through our shop, featured blogs, and ongoing prize vaults. If you’re an aspiring writer or an avid blogger on video games, GP is a great place to build your portfolio with a supportive community that takes interest in your work.
We love to hear what gamers have to say and to maintain the best conversations, Game Podunk expects everyone to respect each other’s differences and opinions. Moderators will not tolerate anyone firing personal attacks or insults on another user. If you don’t agree, learn to disagree and present your argument in an intelligent and respectful manner. We don’t mind a little heated debate just as long as you’re being smart and mature about it.
GP is seriously committed to being community-centric and relies heavily on our members to help us grow. We hope you’ll take part in what we have to offer by registering for free and introducing yourself in the forums. For any questions or assistance, please contact our moderators or refer to the help thread.
The above is the original mission statement for Game Podunk as posted by our last site admin, Nashkirb.
We're actually in the process of revising a new one as I type this, but it won't stray far from what Nash has established already.
