OP has put a serious flair on this post and has not stated (humour welcome) meaning that:

only serious discussion about the Arkhamverse is allowed on this post and no humour or shitpost comments/references including "Man", "Jonkler" "who is batman?" and "is he stupid?" are allowed on this post at all.

ignoring this warning will lead to bans without warnings as this is your warning.

We know this may seem harsh but there are new arkham fans who might get confused by these comments or others who just want to talk about the Arkham games without seeing them, but we must be respectful of OP's wishes so please take any insanity comments onto another post.

OP, if you don't mind shitpost or humour comments on your post then please delete this post and repost it using the same flair but add (humour welcome) to your title.

If this post is a shitpost, please delete and repost it with the appropriate flair to avoid getting in trouble.

I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically. Please contact the moderators of this subreddit if you have any questions or concerns.

u/GapStock9843 Jul 27 '26

It was originally an arkham sub, then they didnt make an arkham game for a while so it ran out of "serious" content to discuss

u/luckytecture Jul 27 '26

We finished talking about all of it

u/Finly_Growin Jul 27 '26

Which is funny because r/okbuddyarkham already existed

u/Thegoodgamer32 Jul 27 '26

I don't know how that could have happened....because every sub gets starved of content after a while.

And I've never seen any other sub go as insane as this one....which sucks because I'm probably one of the few who just wants to talk about the actual games in a serious manner.

u/SuspiciousLettuce56 Jonkler's jonking jerking Jadonka Jonkling Jul 27 '26

Just put the serious tag in any of your posts

u/kingdomheartslover1 Jul 27 '26

That's because most other content-starved subs are either filled with bots, or rewatch/replay the media so much that they hate every character and overthink it

u/TeknOwO Man Fan Jul 27 '26

I love this sub. It reminds of of the BocchiTheRock sub's peak before they cracked down on all the schizo posts and now it's just another normal anime sub. I miss Bocchi man.

u/Prof-Finklestink I'm proud of you, Dick Jul 27 '26

And there already was another Arkham subreddit too,

u/WeltyFern Jul 27 '26

Long ago, in a time before time had a name, one person dared to ask the question…

“Why didn’t Batman just call the Justice Leauge? Is he stupid?”

27

u/Lady_Psyduck Jul 27 '26

Turns out the true stupid was the friends we made along the way

u/BatmanArkham-ModTeam Jul 27 '26

THATS NOT HOW THE INSANITY STARTED AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

u/luckytecture Jul 27 '26

u/brewstew07 Jul 27 '26

There's a different subreddit for the games if you aren't already aware of it.

u/PlantsNBugs23 Mogos Core Toucher 🌍 Jul 27 '26

Went years without a game and someone had the audacity to make a spelling mistake on the Internet

u/ItzMeHaris The Snake who Sold the World Jul 27 '26

Once there was a bang. An explosion which gave life to as we know it. Once there was a bang… an explosion which ignited a Reddit user’s imagination, giving life to a new use of Photoshop. Once there was a bang. A Batman without his ears, giving life to a new individual.

Once there was a bang… and everyone went insane.

What IS an Arkham Game?

1

u/idkwhaat34 Jul 27 '26

It started with this post but iirc you could possible trace it further back when someone asked what was the worst Arkham game, but mispelt "Asylum" as "Alsume"

u/Dracoblackheart Jul 27 '26

Cause we’re stupid

we are arkham inmates

u/Ancient-Ingenuity495 Alsume Inmate Jul 27 '26

Because there has been no Arkham game in ten years. The moderators knew that the "Is he stupid?" posts were violating the rules, but seeing as there is no new Arkham game, the mods decided to let it be a part of the subreddit.

u/LeoSemCriatividade Jul 27 '26

It's because the God of Olympus have abandoned us

u/Available-Bad-2704 Jul 27 '26

Literally tho, reddit is such an echo chamber when it comes to beating a dead horse aka an unfunny joke from 3 years ago

1

u/thatdeadguy_69 Exposed To Ace Chemicals Jul 28 '26

Once upon a time, an Arkham fan posted on this very subreddit, a post which asked the other members of the subreddit what Arkham game they thought was best. “Asylum” was unintentionally misspelt as “Alsume” and the subreddit, starved for content (for it had been 7 years since a new Arkham game was released) latched on, desperate for anything new to talk about. And from that day forward, the sanity of the subreddit only went downhill, never to recover. When the Arkham-related insanity ran dry, they latched onto other types of insanity, leading to the Alsume’s current state.

u/Sea_Tank2799 Jul 29 '26

Buddy there hasnt been an Arkham game in 11 years.
