I took an improv class years ago and one of the core tenets of improv is that you should always do things that support someone else's improv rather than detract from it, even if you don't understand it or see where it's going. In turn then they will support you.

I think good humor is similar...it works better when it's supportive and the receiver feels "in" the joke and can participate in it.

Posting as if you don't like video games in a thread about video games goes against this. It makes the reader feel "out" rather than "in".

Hopefully that makes sense I'm not a comedy expert
