When self-appointed authorities in the gaming community attempt to dictate how others should play, speak, or engage based on personal preferences or perceived norms.
"I prefer playing stealthily in this game."
"You're not a real gamer unless you play aggressively."
"I like using this controller for gaming." "Real gamers only use XYZ brand. You're not serious about gaming."
"I enjoy playing casually for fun." "Casual gamers ruin the experience for serious players. Step up or quit."
"No, it's not a mod/playstyle choice!!! Silent Assassin is cheating, and anyone with half a brain cell is going to think of you as a cheater if you run it."
"Embracing a 'Gamer Gatekeeping' attitude, some assert their words as law in the gaming world, dictating how everyone should play. Disregarding these proclaimed rules may lead to exclusion from the gaming community."

Get the Gatekeeper mug.You aren't more deserving of success than I am and you don't care that the retard is suceeding arbitrarily because his cock is fat do you?
Hym "Your commitment to pretending the gatekeeping is a response to ANYTHING OTHER THAN disparaging your religion is admirable. I may be a psychopathic narcissist but we are not as different as you like to pretend. Which is why the mental breakdown. This isn't a tantrum. I'm not a toddler. I SAID THAT ABOUT THE RETARD AND NOW YOU'RE ATTRIBUTING IT TO ME. I SAID HE WAS A TODDLER AND NOW YOU'RE ATTRIBUTING TO ME. I AM NOT THAT RETARD. And like heat, what I said does not apply in reverse. When I said I'd show him a temper tantrum I was obviously talking about the murdering of him in a fit of rage and not this thing I'm doing here. It's just pretending Jordan. Plugging your ears and chanting 'lalala can't hear you! Lalala!' Until I go away. It's ridiculous!"

It’s about going out of your way and doing unusual things to maintain the body count digits—like tolerating toxic behavior, returning to the first after dating other men—just to avoid being called a “hoe” and to not sleep with the tenth man. Things like that.
