the problem i have with pseudo-subforums is that threads in those pseudo-subforums show up in the main forum too. that makes no sense.

For a moment I thought that maybe the pseudo-subforum posts don't show up in the main one if you ignore a subforum, but that isn't the case.

So yeah, those are pretty pointless.

I think Infinitron is just a bored individual. He really hasn't anything better to do with his life than browsing Codex 20h a day (not even playing vidya which is generally a way more enjoyable past-time) and at some point browsing he suddenly thinks... I should do something.
Then he merges/splits/deletes something because... you know, something had to be done. In German we have a word for this: Blinder Aktionismus (blind actionism). It doesn't help, nobody asked for it, nothing ends up improved... but at the very least you did something!
And isn't that what really counts? Randomly doing some inane crap because you might as well?

Not connected to merging, but is it normal that I can't ignore forums on "New Posts" page without Ignoring them on Forum list? I tried all the options, but I'm either ignoring forum everywhere(new posts, forum list, news feed) or not ignoring at all.

If you want to keep the merge, make the sublines stand out more. There's a good chance a lurke will miss the 'RPG Developers' or 'Tactical Gaming' etc. forums.

The format is also quite ugly, at least align the forums with the text above.

He thinks he's so above everyone else that he doesn't even fucking deign responding in all the threads where he's being accused of legitimate crimes. Fucking cunt, is what he is. I don't care about the changes too much.

Mostly bad changes but it's expected considering what normally happens here.

I get it's hard to find competent people who want to spend time administrating gaming forums and these people are volunteers but I wish they would keep their OCD under wraps.

One must wonder: is this the real DU asking the questions? Or is this a puppet by which ██████████ intends to line up all of his detractors?
Beware of the looming danger, codexers.

EDIT: After talking with the Administration, the creator of this post wishes to make amends for any wrongful accusation, as well as exhort the reader to refrain from partaking in any heedless behaviour. He was clearly upset and out of his best state of mind at the time of posting. He's now been put on a plane for the Caribbean Islands to relax and reflect upon his actions.

We are almost where we were couple of years ago, so I like the direction.

Although technically the General Gaming forums were always split to a minor degree

It's probably time for the Dex to drop the "we've got a Jew, a woman, a geriatric and a gay on staff" fig leaf and just make AdolfSatan the new editor

Some of the merging/splitting of forums and threads might have been sensible. But now it's just trolling. Which of course fits the Codex, in a way.

What the fuck we don't even have useful tags yet and you want to merge my patrician strategy games into the same forum we put stinky FPS games in?

Revert this at once or I will do something terrible

Never forget:
DarkUnderlord

What's the deal with Infinitron, why is he still a global mod after all the shit he's done? He's the cause of almost every Codex drama, e.g. blocking Darth Roxor 's PoE review, inXile leak, Bubbles meltdown, Ludo Lense resigning from reviewing on the Codex and things like taking credit for someone else's work or codex curator substandard reviews and recommendations. Are you that afraid of Mossad Crooked Bee? Can't he perform his tasks without the ban hammer?

Why is Irene leaving?
Because Infinitron is abusing his powers and banned Irenaeus from some part of the forums.
Judging by this DarkUnderlol will not only do nothing about it but he will also give Tron even more power.
