Dullsters
Inspired by the Dull Men’s Club.
1. Relevant commentary on your own dull life. Posts should be about your own dull, lived experience. This is our most important rule. Direct questions, random thoughts, comment baiting, advice seeking, many uses of “discuss” rarely comply with this rule.
2. Original, Fresh, Meaningful Content.
3. Avoid repetitive topics.
4. This isn't an advice forum
Use a search engine, a tradesperson, Reddit, friends, a specialist Facebook group, apps, Wikipedia, an AI chat, a reverse image search etc. to answer simple questions or identify objects. Also see rule 1, “comment baiting”.
There are a number of content specific communities with subject matter experts who can help you.
Some other communities to consider before posting:
5. Keep it dull. If it puts us to sleep, it’s on the right track. Examples of likely not dull: jokes, gross stuff (including toes), politics, religion, royalty, illness or injury, killing things for fun, or promotional content. Feel free to post these elsewhere.
6. No hate speech, sexism, or bullying No sexism, hate speech, degrading or excessively foul language, or other harmful language. No othering or dehumanizing of anyone or negativity towards any gender identity.
7. Proofread before posting. Use good grammar and punctuation. Avoid useless phrases. Some examples: - starting a post with “So” - starting a post with pointless phrases, like “I hope this is allowed” or “this is my first post” Only share good quality, cropped images. Do not share screenshots of images; share the original image.

I love my Valheim server. I can spin it up and pop in for a round of farming and planting, maybe build a new lil storage place when my boxes are filling up. Maybe go mine a lil for some ores I need. Cook food, mead, make some portions to stock my supply box. Play ten minutes or a half hour and set myself up for a journey when I have time for one.
Or I can grab portal mats, choose an icon from a quest in an area I’ve never come close to exploring, and go on a two hour quest to put teleporters on every continent on the way and eventually find out if Killfuck Gronkblaster is a souped up golem with an army of star golems… or a boar. (I could look in my menu to read about K. Gronk, but ruin the surprise?)
Hey, a giant tower! Can’t seem to just walk in… better go grab some stacks of wood and make ladders and platforms to scale the outside and OH GOD WHAT IS THIS PLACE
