Hey everyone,

I wanted to share an amazing article @JustV's written with the help of some community members too. It's a guide all about loot boxes. It's a great article for anyone looking to learn more about loot boxes and also all the support options available :)

Have a read of the article on our website and let us know your thoughts!

Maybe somethings don't get better, but we do. We get stronger. We learn to live with our situations as messy and ugly as they are. We fix what we can and we adapt to what we can't. Maybe some of us will never fully be okay, but at least we're here. We're still trying. We're doing the best we can. That's worth celebrating too ❤

    A very good read! Lots of games these days are very much "pay to play" and it baffles me

    Call of duty, sea of thieves, fortnite, Warframe, apex, to name a few. All have battlepasses and tons of cosmetics to entice you. Paying money just to use a certain weapon or look like a popular artist/game character.

    I get it I mean I bought a skin on Fortnite and that's all I use but it's so easy to get sucked in to buying things constantly especially when it's in a different currency (such as v bucks) and before you know it you've dropped a lot of money, it shocked my sister when I calculated her total and since she's cut back on the spending. I think it's one of the more popular problems across this generation, we think of gambling addictions but we don't think to check that
