Title: Wargamers social media
Post by: tallyho on November 15, 2019, 02:48:21 PM: Just wondering if any of you are aware that there is a dedicated social media site for wargamers called https://feedmegames.com?

Im on there, so it must be good!

Im feeling rather lonely on the historical front, there are tons of rpg folks chatting and sharing there but not many really sad gits lol.

You mean there's an online service where you can register to get into discussion with other like-minded gamers?

That's just what we needed!

Wait a moment...

;)

Yeah, this, I'm afraid. :?

I'm definitely not above the notion of wargamers social media, but the outbursts of this ones creator has left me cold on that front.

Followed this on Twitter, and decided to give it a pass ;)

Happy with visiting LAF for wargame info, cool minis and all

What'd the owner do/say to ruin the project already?

I'm not sure if repeating the twitter drama will bring much good tbh.
