Looking for people your own age to game with? Over 30 Clan has been around since 2010 and has grown to over 1,500 members, and for the last 6+ years it’s been my home base. Any given night you’ll find folks jumping into everything from Battlefield 6 and Arc Raiders to Overwatch 2 and more.

It’s an active, friendly, pressure-free group with weekly events, game nights, and even a dedicated sim racing crew that’s just wrapping up another iRacing season. If that sounds like your vibe, you can apply through their website and hop in.

I’m just one of many members there, but it honestly took ages to find a community this active and drama‑free. It’s become a real bright spot in my life, and I hope you’ll get as much out of it as I do.

Huge shoutout to the mods here for letting me share this. Had a great response when posting in patientgamers, and hoping some of you will find your new gaming home outside of Lemmy here too. Have a good one!

    I hate this. Not because it exists, but because it reminds me how old I am, lol.

    I used to know people that would all join up for Quake II, CounterStrike 1.5/1.6, and Diablo II LAN events, but it’s getting harder and more expensive to travel these days. Playing online just isn’t the same for me, so I won’t be joining, but I do hope that the community continues to thrive and remain as drama-free as it can.

      I’ve tried many communities before this that were either toxic, pressured you for lack of attendance or were just pretty much dead. I’ve had the opportunity to be a member for over 6 years and it’s been amazing. Hope you find it to be the same!

      It’s a great place. The sim racing league that I’m a part of is even run by a super knowledgeable guy who even uses his own time to coach other sim enthusiasts. One member started in this sim league and now races in real life even. Look forward to seeing you there!

    I read the part on the website and I like the setup. I am correct in thinking this is a US based community?

      Not entirely. It started in the US but we’ve been fortunate enough to have members join from all around the world!
