Community Guidelines – Inspire Positive Connection

Welcome to Pb Linux Gaming — a space rooted in open knowledge, tech resilience, and a deep appreciation for collaboration in Linux gaming. We’re here to demystify open-source tools, share cutting-edge tips, and create a thriving, respectful community where gamers, tinkerers, and curious coders feel at home. These guidelines help us protect the positive, learning-focused energy at the heart of our community.

Founded by Eloria Neythanna in California, Pb Linux Gaming is your stop for open-source gaming essentials, Linux customization walkthroughs, performance tweaks, and Proton compatibility tips. We aim to make technical topics approachable and exciting — while making space for every voice to be heard with care.

Respect as a Foundation

Every community functions best when people feel safe to share, build, and even make mistakes — respectfully. We ask all members to approach conversations with empathy and good intentions. Whether you’re helping troubleshoot kernel flags or reflecting on industry shifts, remember: it’s not just about being correct, it’s about being kind and clear in how you engage.

  • Respect time: Research before asking, credit sources when advising.
  • Respect tone: Speak to others as you’d speak to a peer eager to learn.
  • Respect diversity: We welcome backgrounds across the spectrum—from hardcore coders to GPU mod hobbyists.

Behaviors That Strengthen Our Community

Open-source gaming thrives on collaboration. Sharing discoveries, failures, and half-baked success stories all create valuable momentum. Posting your setup tweaks, discussing Wine layers that work across distributions, or marshalling collective knowledge on game configs? These help others grow.

Here’s what that looks like in action:

  • Offering solutions with context: what distro, kernel, toolset, and hardware?
  • Flagging bugs or quirks without attacking tools, devs, or users.
  • Linking to reference breakdowns like our expert breakdowns or your own articles — insight loves a breadcrumb trail.
  • Quoting other members with attribution and care: keep collaboration constructive.

Conduct That Will Be Removed

To safeguard the helpful and focused vibe we’ve worked hard to cultivate, here are a few things we won’t allow:

  • Personal attacks, flamebait, or harassment in any form
  • Overly off-topic tangents, spam, or commercial self-promotion without relevance
  • Deliberate sharing of false or misleading tech information
  • Exclusionary language or hate speech (including overt and coded messages)

If your post is removed, our moderators will aim to explain why — our intent is always to guide, not punish. If something makes you feel uncomfortable or unsafe, please report it or email us directly at [email protected].

Giving Credit Where It’s Due

Great communities are built on generosity — including the generosity of acknowledgment. If you’re building on someone else’s idea, quoting from a config, quoting a troubleshooting solution, or adapting methods from tutorials (whether from Pb Linux Gaming or elsewhere), please cite the source with a link or brief credit. For example:

This transparency builds trust. It also helps others dig deeper, explore original content, and avoid misinformation spirals. If you’re referencing internal guides, feel free to link them — such as using Linux Performance Tweaks or Quantum Engineering Lab as reference points.

Moderation for a Productive Space

Think of our moderators as system maintainers. They’re not here to micromanage you — just prevent BSOD-level failures. They might remove harmful or disruptive content and will reach out when needed. You can also reach them by emailing [email protected].

This moderation isn’t censorship; it’s care. We’re here to ensure every member has space to contribute without feeling threatened, harassed, or shouted down. Your voice matters, and so does your safety.

Keep Personal Info… Personal

Please avoid posting private information—your own or that of others. This includes full names, addresses, phone numbers, workspace credentials, or anything else that could compromise someone’s safety or identity. For details on our data handling practices, explore our:

Protecting your information is a key part of maintaining a respectful, transparent environment.

Celebrating Collaboration

This space grows stronger when built with others. You can become a contributor by offering insights, tools, or success stories. Got content you’d like to develop into a full tutorial, game optimization case study, or a behind-the-scenes look at config testing? We’d be thrilled to hear from you.

If you’re part of a niche Linux gaming community, a tool creator, or simply want to widen your existing collaborations, check out our guides and support under Audience Build. You don’t have to be a dev to shape the future — shared learning is our co-op mode.

Our Founder’s Philosophy

Eloria Neythanna founded Pb Linux Gaming to close the gap between complex Linux setups and fun, accessible, game-ready systems. Her focus is on demystifying the ecosystem for gamers who want control without sacrificing clarity. You can dive deeper into her philosophy and her broader motivation by visiting Bold Visionary.

Our Local Setup (Literally)

We’re based in sunny California — specifically, 4583 Jett Lane, City of Commerce, CA 90040, United States. Here, we run the systems, test the tweaks, and craft the guides that fuel this site and its community. While you may be accessing us across the web, our roots are planted firmly in local learning and global reach.

A Quick Pulse Check Before You Post:

  • Does this help another player/player-developer make better technical choices?
  • Am I being respectful, even when disagreeing?
  • Have I added context, links, or references to support my claim or solution?
  • Would I feel encouraged by this comment if it was directed at me?

If yes, go ahead and share. If not, reconsider or reframe. Our goal is to keep the ecosystem healthy and our conversations inviting.
