Crispy™ So, has Jaesun gone for good?

[made]

Good for him. He should focus on making music rather than shoveling Codexers' verbal diarrhea back and forth. He's much better at it, too.

 

[Irenaeus]

I didn't even know he was a musician.

If you can't handle criticism you shouldn't be on the Codex, let alone the Internet. If the concept of being wrong bothers you I hear there are remote places in northern Alaska where no one but the wild life will bother you.

I think it's more along the lines of the inherent Codexian query "Is it worth surrounding myself with a bunch of petulant shitlords just to talk about videogames" being the starting point for any sane person. And beyond that it's just, y'know, what do you want out of the time you spend here and "results may vary" etc.

Well, if you view everyone here as a shitlord then of course you're not gonna want to stick around.

The question is why do you think everyone on the Codex is a shitlord? I certainly don't think everyone here is a shitlord and most of the ones I would consider as such either are banned, self-ejected, or are locked away from some forums. It's very easy for a few loud people to convince you that everyone from a group is the same way, true or not.

Jaesun used to play lead guitar for a black metal band before he caught the gay disease. (not AIDS)

I don't. There are enough true bros here to dilute the shit. And Underrail.

 

[Clockwork Knight]

Is that the thing though? Or did he look at both the reaction to the controversy and the reaction to his reaction to the controversy and declare this place "not worth it"? Because he'd only be partially wrong, y'know.

We'd have to ask him. I sure hope he's not one of those weird faggots that frequent a forum they hate. Those guys are beyond salvation!

 

[TwinkieGorilla]

I know you think you're being cute here, but I don't hate this place. It is, warts and all, my RPG home.

More like Overrated.

celebrate.

RIP JAESUN 1975-201?

1975?

Has anyone considered that maybe he's just off celebrating his 40th birthday somewhere?

I wasn't referring to you, was speaking hypothetically.

I can't pretend to know exactly what set him off, but who could blame him? The obnoxious shitlord volume got turned to 11 during PoE's totally awesum and important controversy.

Well, that's the thing - he felt the need to control that discussion because he didn't consider it "important", as if it was his obligation to ensure everyone is discussing "worthy" subjects, lest the sanctity of the PoE subforum be fouled. It was a problem he created for himself.

What specifically needs to be discussed exactly? How does that effect CRPG design and mechanics?

Is that the thing though? Or did he look at both the reaction to the controversy and the reaction to his reaction to the controversy and declare this place "not worth it"? Because he'd only be partially wrong, y'know.

Jaesun wanted to impose his view on "worthy discussion and post quality" by blatant censorship. Whether you agree with his opinions on "shitlords" or not isn't really relevant, is it?
He got some (very little, imo) backlash because of it. If he left because of that, he brought it on himself. Simply letting the codex be the codex, simply giving people enough rope to hang themselves, simply pounding people he disagreed with with superior arguments, simply staying true to codex traditions would have avoided any kind of drama and "controversy".
I haven't followed Roxor's review but the actual sjw-thread died off as quickly as predicted, once it was "allowed". In fact it would have died even faster without all the previous censorship-drama.
All that said, I strongly doubt that the codex is rid of Jaesun's censorship. He's probably just on vacation or something.

 

[TwinkieGorilla]

He's probably just on vacation or something.

Yeh, I already said that. And I'm not defending his moderating actions. Only saying his decision to say "shitlords gonna shitlord" and walk away if that's what he did isn't hard to understand. Besides, Jaesun doesn't really do the whole debate thing anyway. He's like a glorified lurker. A lurker with "Some Pulp" if you will.

 

[Admiral jimbob]

Jaesun once destroyed my long, informative thread about a Wizardry 6-8 single party playthrough. It was a treasure trove of knowledge in which veterans and newcomers alike shared useful Wizardry knowledge and trivia, discussing little-analysed aspects and secrets of the trilogy, and as I progressed through the games, I found my very thread coming up again and again in Google results, truly an example of the Codex at its best. All of those posts were deleted or moved into the Wizardry megathread, like tears in rain.

This is a bigger crime than the silencing of a gay baby retard discussion about problematic tombstones, and one I can never forgive.

I think it was him anyway.

EDIT: I WAS WRONG!!!

 

[Irenaeus]

I did not know of this grave crime. I don't think I'll ever forgive him again, Wyzardry VI in particular is sacred to me.

 

[Admiral jimbob]

I apologise for the above Jaesun slander. Infinitron informs me that Crooked B was actually responsible for this heinous crime.

 

[Irenaeus]

Jesus fuck

 

[The Brazilian Slaughter]

Of course it was a woman.

 

[King Crispy]

Crooked Bee, is this true?

 

[Irenaeus]

I doubt Scrooge would destroy a Wizardry thread.

 

[Western]

I apologise for the above Jaesun slander. Infinitron informs me that Crooked B was actually responsible for this heinous crime.

Probably one of those awful people that think Might and Magic is better than Wizardry.

This band would like to disagree with your assessment on the incompatibility between metal and gayness:
