The Community Spotlight 2022.03.26

2 years 1 month ago

Hello and welcome to the latest edition of the Giant Bomb Community Spotlight. I, @zombiepie, am once again honored to be your host as we look back at the best community-created works from the previous week! You wouldn't think it, but the community was incredibly active even though the gaming universe seems to be afflicted with some sort of post-Elden Ring stupor.

Rorie has a handful of updates for those of you concerned about the technical side of things. First, he updated the Giant Fire Bomb Chat! Give it a read if you want an update about technical issues with the Giant Bomb chat. Speaking of which, have you still had issues with being logged out repeatedly on the site? If recent fixes to the issue have not improved things for you, here's a link to the bug reporting thread where you can let out a yelp!

I have been promoting the upcoming Giant Bomb Community Endurance Run for two weeks, but now I'd like to take this time to issue a bit of a personal appeal. For those of you that do not know, I (ZombiePie) will be participating in the GBCER and need help reaching my fundraising goal. Even if you can only spare a small donation in the single digits, every bit helps. Right now, I'd like to be able to reach $500 raised before the end of the weekend. If you can't donate, please consider spreading the word.

Thank you so much to those in the @giantbomb community that have already donated to my charity drive! Remember, I am trying to raise $2,500 for @PencilsOfPromis as part of the Giant Bomb Community Endurance Run! Any amount helps!

Sooooo I guess I can tell y'all: I'm now officially a dad! My wife was an absolute champion goddess bringing our son Angus into the world, and everything's going well now we're all home (trashed sleep patterns notwithstanding). pic.twitter.com/vN3lIu4RYD

Jess's No Screen Grab Plea (By: @kone)

You might recall Jess making a plea for community and staff to not pull a certain silly face she made during the 3/25/2022 UPF. Well, Kone decided to completely ignore that request and even used it to make a hilarious video at her expense.

Jeff Bakalar, 90s Bully (By: @kone)

In case you missed it, Jeff Bakalar posted an image on their Twitter of himself as a teen in the 90s. Kone saw fit to use that image to depict Jerf as the most "iconic" bully from the decade.

After watching the first Run for the Hills series and seeing the teasers for the next one, Zesty_Time got to sketching Jan as a certain Silent Hill 2 protagonist and Jess as his co-captain on sticky notes!
