There will never be a "final solution" because then DU would have to ban himself. :smug:

Our administrator stands athwart the slippery slope, yelling "Stop!"

If we banned everyone who prolifically mentioned rape (which is something I considered along with nuking the CDS crowd), we'd lose a lot of people. Not to mention the butthurt whining would reach epic proportions.

I'm still undecided as to whether that would be a good thing or a bad thing though.

That would wipe all of the shitposters from the forum. Would this be a bad thing?

Sadly he'd miss you with the ban so I'll allow you to decide what the real answer is...

Wait, no I won't because you'd still get the answer wrong so here it is:

Only if he banned your dumb ass too.

For the people who are demanding bans over rape jokes, and "shitposter" witch hunts: Have you seen GoG or Steam forums? If you haven't read them, you should. Those forums are filled with a bunch of politically correct, status quo, passive-aggressive shitheads, who contribute nothing to intellectual discourse, nor are they pleasant to be around. Please don't make this another faggot forum where people have to mind their P's and Q's for fear of saying something naughty.

Want a quick way to make me leave?

Turn the RPG Codex into this (which also happens to sound similar to GameFAGs) and I'd ban myself.

Then again, Codexers are politically incorrect passive-aggressive shitheads who contribute nothing to intellectual discourse and are definately not pleasant to be around.

When you realize that all those who bother posting on GD (and affiliates, such as SCIENCE!) suffer of some sort of mental defect, an administrator who suffers of the same condition might just utter an metaphorical call for help by banning everyone he could possibly and pointlessly argue with.

If we banned everyone who prolifically mentioned rape (which is something I considered along with nuking the CDS crowd), we'd lose a lot of people. Not to mention the butthurt whining would reach epic proportions.

I'm still undecided as to whether that would be a good thing or a bad thing though.

Butthurt and whining of epic proportions, you say? What makes you think anything would change?

i am very angry about the loss of some dude who posted about wanting to rape 11-year-olds
Don't think your comics will make the grade over at RPGWatch.
first they came for the pedophiles, and I said nothing, because I was not a pedophile
then they came for the people who criticise video games, and I said nothing, because the apparent connection between these things confused me into silence

:rpgcodex:
I'm offended at being called "passive-aggressive".
It just wouldn't have worked the same if I added "except when they're openly hostile and enraged" after it. Maybe I should have put it like (passive-)aggressive...

Wait, Haba - are you saying it'd be bad for RPG Watch because they'd all move over there?

You're right, we should look after our friends at the Watch.
No, he means with moderation the Codex turns into the Watch.

The forum needs some moderation because otherwise it turns into /b/. The mods and admins just have to take care so they don't become too overzealous about it, resisting the temptation to nuke the "undesirables" unless they become a real problem.

Very disappoint in DU, such amateur mistakes displayed. A good purge needs to progress from top to bottom, and not the other way around.

Stalin would have banned Trash first.

Also considering there is a metaphorical (or maybe literal) rape reference in the last tacticular cancer article the rape purge would go far indeed.

What really gets to me is the sense of entitlement these people feel. "OMG!! I'm so entitled to post about XXXX. Waaahhh!!" It's pathetic.

Is a non sequitur how you handle all forms of criticism?

Dnf was a crack baby. It's not cool to pick on the disabled.
I don't know. The Codex has a Spartan aspect to it. Crack babies, like dnf, should be tossed from a cliff.... preferably hurled like a discus or an American football.

I have seen this exact sentament used to rebuff criticism of Bioware games, among other things. Just sayin'.
