Delete, vandalism, I'd say: see Special:Contributions/RPG_bleeder. Later legitimized in https://en.wiktionary.org/w/index.php?title=bleeder&diff=next&oldid=50800983 --Azertus (talk) 13:45, 27 May 2021 (UTC)Reply
Forget durably archived, I can't even find anything online where you'd expect it. Just delete it. DAVilla 02:39, 15 June 2021 (UTC)Reply

There may be something to this ... we have a definition listed at bleed, under the noun section, describing a sense related to RPG's. It would be odd for there to be a noun sense of bleed but not a related verb sense, so perhaps this could be expanded. That said I wouldnt say it needs to be listed also at bleeder since it would be covered by the figurative sense of definition 1 (someone who bleeds easily). Soap 15:18, 12 February 2023 (UTC)Reply

Oddly it seems to just be a noun. I was able to find plenty of people writing at great length about the phenomenon of bleed, specifically with respect to people identifying with their role-playing characters, without ever once using it as a verb. So I guess we're pretty much where we need to be with this particular definition. Soap 18:20, 12 February 2023 (UTC)Reply
