Wouldn't whites be sent out of America as the Indians, Injuns, Native Americans, whatever you wish to call them, were originally here? Or does the white race just get to claim wherever they wish and throw whoever to wherever?

Us National Socialists are like Christians back in 60 AD, they were few and far between and were despised to the point of violence and murder. I swear if we weren't allowed free speech in this country people would gladly throw us to lions. Rockwell was a great man, do you know how many times he's been shot at and how many times mobs tried to beat him to a pulp? He didn't give up, he knew that it was a very good possibility that he might die, and he still had the courage to what's right for America. Times are now worse since Rockwell's day and they will only get worse until this country is nothing but wastes. I know you all see things getting worse and worse in our society and I beleive the only cure is National Socialism. We would gladly pay all travel expenses to deport minorities to their appropriate countries, hell they might benefit their own countries more from their experience in the US. We could then be a proud white country again with goals and deeds and especially standards of HONOR, DUTY, AND LOYALTY TO OUR BROTHERS AND SISTERS AND TO OUR NATION.
One down?

Technically shouldn't you be deporting yourself back to england and letting the Native American's form a retarded naiz state, or whatever the correct term for a fascist run hellhole is.

I thought you all knew it was me...

sportforredneck- Times have changed since the Native American days. White Europeans have already established a civilization in the US and we are dealing with the present time. We shall stay in the US and flourish here without disrupting other cultures.

Facist run hellhole? Hitler's third Reich flourished happily for six years.

Then in your proper world, where exactly do those few non-diluted Native Americans go?

Big post.

Not that you care, but you actually impressed me with that first post. For someone who calls himself King Dumbfuck you are quite more articulate and smart than most around here.

There are some problems, though. To "make this place very hostile and unwelcoming" is one of the main things that resulted on the very same issues you are mentioning. Many see the Codex as a closed, very elitist comunity: To be accepted in such is the kind of acceptance those "retards who have no business being here" crave for. And it comes in full, with the local equivalent of group hugs and all.

Flaming the retards to hell is not going to help. Right now, most people seem to think skills to flame and take flames as a man are part of the Codex. Yes, most people talking about their first Codex flame and the like are just joking - But how far does the joke have to get before becoming something more? And how real is the joke after a while? More than a few people come here for the "attitude" and group hugs instead of the topic. And coming to the Codex to Flame and get Flamed is seen almost as a rite of passage among sub-groups of other communities.

Ergo, Flaming the retards to hell does not change or solve the problem. If anything, it gives a greater incentive to get "inside" the group, as is now tighter and even more elitist. The right to Flame is a great impulse for the same groupthink you are bashing: The "alien enemy" gambit is the very same thing that today pulls most people to extreme ideologies or groups - Not the beliefs, not the topic. It also kills most original ideas: An idol becomes THE idol, as those inside do not want to become the alien to be Flamed and ridiculed. An idea becomes THE idea, the gospel, for the very same reason.

The "attitude" in the Codex is interesting. But, at least as i see it, is also the problem. Some say the lacks of threads are the problem, but it is a sympton or whatever it is called in english. I say the problem is that people join the Codex for the "attitude," the (quite stupid) ilusion of being in a closed group, and the place's reputation as a free-for-all unadjusted's hive. Add to that, and the situation grows.

"Normalize" the Codex - No flaming, no piracy, no stupid pornography threads, no "we are the RPG taliban" crap, a freedom of speech limited to the topic at hand. Scrap the group hugs. Abandon the stupid 'net celebrity spotlight. Turn away from the online comunity realm where it is now, and back to the closed-topic discussion forum. Turn it into a quiet place to discuss a certain genre of games instead of a worldview or an "attitude." Make it boring for anyone not inclined to discuss what a cRPG should be, and let the idiots exile themselves. They will.

But then i have an almost single digit post-count, so feel free to ignore me.

Really, don't pop off about shit you know little about. Saint was a liberal? I guess I missed your whole meltdown since I don't hang around as much anymore, but Nazi shit fails to be funny anymore when you start getting serious about it. You don't fail because you're not a liberal, you fail because you're an idiot. I guess you must have hit the wrong button with Calis, but you're a joke anyway, it's just that nobody else cared to bother. Aren't you a just filthy guinea destined to get shipped off too when the reckoning comes, anyway? Or is white power so desperate for recruits they'll take anyone paler than Halle Berry nowadays?

God, grow a sack. Why do people who've been around less than a month always seem to feel at most liberty to tell us what our problems are and how to fix them? I haven't been hanging around much lately, but any group hugs you've witnessed were probably from the retards slapping each other on the back long after most of the people who gave this place its "reputation" are long gone. But you already knew that being the expert and all. God, I'm getting sick of the old-timer routine, but you retards really are pushing it.

First, you are telling that to the guy who just wrote "But then i have an almost single digit post-count, so feel free to ignore me?" Smart move.

Second, this is the fucking internet. I could be your mother and you would be none the wiser.

Third, there are so many fallacies in your post i am not even going to point them.

Fourth, the old timer routine? Go back to "first" - Your intelectual qualities amaze me.

Fifth, i prefer to observe instead of participate. Then, this is the 'net. Reach your own conclusions.

Sixth, nothing of what you said actually shows in wich way is my argument wrong. Because of my post count? Because you misinterpreted some of my points? any other reason or, better yet, some reason in anything you said? Surprise me.

Seventh (??), you actually backed some of my points. Thank you.

Ergo, grow a fucking brain while i grow a sack, whatever the fuck that may be. Then begin having opinions, not before. Cogito ergo sum, right? Not the other way around.

But then i only have some twenty post so nothing i say matters xD as i said. Idiot.

Sorry to break my self imposed ban so soon, I’ll go back 100% for good after I hopefully clarify a point I left too vague earlier.

First, VD, Calis, Shagnak: I worked far too hard for far too long to get this tag to ever want to part with it. Instead of removing it, why not have a head-shed meeting where you discuss adding King to it as a boon for my many years of entertaining everyone (as a parting gift)?

Second, let me fully express what I meant by retards. I’ll make a post, regardless of what it says, and I’ll get any number of fucking retards trying to make their e-penis bigger with one-sentence snipes or retarded comments. I’ll spend my life arguing with someone, and I think I do well when I get in a pissing-match with someone. But, what has happened here is every other dickhead thinks its funny and they’re funny to take a pot shot with no substance.

It’s inevitable that on a rpg video game site you are going to get a bunch of little scrawny fucking pussy pathetic kids that need to find acceptance in some sort of community to justify going another day without finally slicing their wrist in a pathetic cry for attention. And they found that acceptance here. And they think it is comic genius to troll and throw out comic gold such as, “Roqua is stupid. Lolololl hehe.” And the other fucking idiots all give him and each other e-high-fives on IRC. That’s this site now. Regardless of the quality content from the staff, the members of this site are fucking idiots. If I want to get in arguments with little retarded kids I’d get a weekend job working with them, that way I could fuck with them if they pissed me off. Rub shampoo in their retard eyes as I assisted them in taking their retard showers. Pinch their retard knobby-arm fat as I restrain them after they throw one of their retard fits. Pee on my hands and wipe it on their retard food as I hand it to them and they slovenly shove it into their retard mouths. The little things that make dealing with retards worthwhile and enjoyable.

I get no satisfaction dealing with the retards here. None. They are too numerous and embedded too deep. I believe that’s why a lot of the old-timers stopped posting; they got sick of all the retards. They make posting here a hassle. They make this site an embarrassment. They destroy anything good this site could achieve.

Look how many people like bryce and want him back. Bryce is the embodiment of the type of moron this site needs to rid themselves of. And the retards I’m talking about above are just like him, but somehow, are even stupider and even more retarded. Maybe this site loves having idiots like bryce, and think he’s a good fit. In which case is even more reason to pack my bags and get the fuck out of here.

And I think walks with the snails would agree that all of the above is good reason for the quality posters, and good and long time members of this site to move on. Maybe they’ll lose out on a couple good rpg discussions, but they don’t have to deal with armies of raging teeny-bopper retards being retarded. Its puts everyone normal in the situation to ignore the vast and overwhelming droves of retards or to start posting less, then lurking, then just stop coming by at all.

If this site keeps going with the current trend of retard overload how long will it take before everyone normal leaves? There are a lot of quality posters here, people that can and do add to the site, but what incentive do they have of sticking around in the long term if they are just going to get attacked by a bunch of juvenile retards every two seconds and that will just get worse? The only difference I see between the average poster here and the average poster on the Bethesda or Bioware boards is the members here are allowed to swear. It’s the same type of idiot, basically the same idiots. Just as ignorant, young, stupid, and oblivious, but they are allowed to be vulgar here.

Why would anyone want to post at a site filled with bryce’s? No one sane or normal would. I am willing to try and be the catalyst for change here. Listen to walks with the snails. I disgree with him on new members in general. The next guy to join could be someone that adds a lot to the site, but he nailed it with his first post in this thread. I also agree with PsuedoInt Snob in that flaming the retards might not be the way to solve it, as they are too numerous and aren’t smart enough to leave if it happened. (I never said abandonedware was bad, and underdogs and abandonia take down games at the request of publisher or developer from what I know).

Whats the answer? I don’t know. Something drastic needs to be done soon. Very soon.

Anyhow, with my leaving that’s one less idiot to worry about or keep tabs on. I think it is going to have to come down to you guys wrecking shop to clean house, and having to moderate with a heavy hand and hostility for a while. A lot of eggs will need to be broken before things get back on track and the majority of retards go back to lurking or posting at TES and Gamespy.

Sorry again to break my self-imposed ban so soon, but I just wanted to clarify what I meant in my earlier posts. I had to rush this so sorry if it jumps around or is hard to read.

I only knew the Codex like that, since the legendary "discreditation" of Rauch's review of Gothic 3 by VD. And that's a good thing, you need tax free places and duty free shops on the internet as well.
This doesn't imply support to wannabe Nazis, racists or other similar faggots, but just that you post here on your responsibility, knowing what to expect in the posts other posters write, and accepting that.
Besides, there's the age filter, cheat on your own responsibility of facing the (more or less) "cruel" world of a (more or less) adult audience. I for one like not having to watch what I say and how rude it may seem, and am prepared to the same service in return.

Nazism has nothing to do with this. It's immaturity and incessant attention seeking. Months prior to his Nazi phase TNP was spouting endless gangsta, homeboy BS. Neo-nazi and lover of African American culture all rolled up into one? Nah, just someone who will post anything to get attention. That's the real difference between the average poster and the majority of "dumbfuck". I guess three inane comments are fine. Thirty in the same thread, not.

From a lurker's perspective - it's a shame to see the Codex lose it's free speech policy - but I do agree that this place is becomming quite lame in some aspects.

Anyway - not going to make an essay out of this. Here's what I'd do to fix (what I perceive to be) the Codex's problems:
1. Close down the general forum for a while - this seems to be where the stupidity festers and grows, and it adds nothing to the goal of the site.
2. Open up new and more specific RPG forums. Something to get intelligent discussion on the theory behind making good cRPGs going instead of having that stuff crowded out by the dull threads repeating over and over again that 'Fallout is teh rox!', 'death to Bethesda!', etc. in the general RPG forum.
3. Ban people who derail intelligent threads with bullshit.

What I imagine these would do is to get rid of the idiots (Nazis included) by giving them a limited area to post worthless things, while attracting posters interested in talking intelligently about cRPGs, what makes them good, and how to make them better in the future.

I've always viewed the Codex as having some parallels with The Forge (www.indie-rpgs.com) when their theory forum was still active. The problem is that RPG Codex doesn't have any forums which direct and encourage discussion on how to make cRPGs, and so while there are threads like that, they generally don't get the attention that they need. It would be nice (and would make it far more interesting to read) to see this place have more discussion on the mechanics of cRPGs, how to build them, etc. - and would be even better to see these ideas built into indie projects by members of this forum.

You know, there's one thing worse than stupidity. It's stupidity displayed by people who think they're smart. He said you're wrong because you moan about the cuddling and circle-jerking, which is a recent thing. Nobody gives a fuck about your postcount. In fact, can't we just remove the postcount? That would fix a lot.

Given that a crack-fueled harangue involving the threat of unusual varieties of rape and murder has been Roqua's signature post for at least as long as I've been here, I think it's somewhat ironic that he's leading the charge against inane or immature posting habits.

**Applause** And take all the dumbfucks, furries and Bethfugees with you. Ironically, I have seen some of your posts over on RPGwatch. Why you pretend to be a dumbfuck here and not there is a mystery.

If the 'codex has a problem it is that some posters relapse toward their inner child when they post on the 'codex.

Anyhow, I liked the no-ban policy. Less work for the admins, true freedom of speech etc.

I can easily avoid offensive material. Volo's posts back in the day, guess he got laid. Heheh.. just kiddin'.
Have yet to see 'tubgirl' in all its glory. Also yet to click one of Nicolai's links. Never, ever click on one of Nicolai's links. Gathered from the comments following one such post. Unfortunately the horror of goatse.cx may remain burned on my retinas forever.

The point I am trying to make is that the racism doesn't bother me. Though I can understand if those in charge don't see it that way.

For me the 'codex is a gold mine. My time is valuable, as I am sure are most other peoples'. The number of hidden gems, indies that would otherwise have remained undiscovered. Arcanum, Geneforge etc. Also, the first place I go to if I want to know if a game is worth my money. The 'codex has actually saved me money insofar as informing me of duds. Gothic3, Oblivion to name two.

The critical nature of the 'codex is in essence - why I face and wade through shockporn, gay furry-shame betrayals, nazis and dumbfucks everyday.

That would fix a lot.

I never said it was an older thing, that's an assumption you, and maybe him, made. Actually, i did not make a single indication of time or duration in my original post. If the cuddling and circle-jerking bothers me and i am a newly registered member, it is implied the things i "moan" about were not ever so. Otherwise, i would not be discussing about a recent change for the worse but the very nature of the Codex. I would then not have joined, as my ideas would have been in direct oposition to the nature of the site, instead of to the current thrend. Why would i join, then? It is called basic reasoning.

And i only mentioned Post-Count on my response because he mentioned i was going for the "Old-Timer Act." I have seen such responses before in the Codex, while lurking. Ergo, i made a joke comment about it on my original post, actually hoping no one will reach for such an stupid, baseless argument as a response if i made such comment. Then, someone comes and makes precisely that.

I have been registered for less than a month. In the time i have been registered, i have just posted every now and then. Then what? This is the 'net, and i do not need to be registered to read the threads, much less to be loged. Also, i could be an old timer, i could be an old lurker, or i could be an alt. IPs are not fingerprints. Reason says: Given those conditions, arguing about "old timers" or seniority is idiocy, regardless the actual fact of me lurking for years or minutes and of me being really Me.

Then, without taking even a second look into those considerations and posibilities, he comes kicking the door and calling names. What did you expect against such attitude? A counter argument? A debate? I call "idiot" and move along, as he is not acting as a rational being. Then you come and defend him xD next time i'll make an essay so there are no misunderstandings. Then you will be able to say i am a pretentious shit stating the obvious and acting like everyone is a retard, instead of just to come and take a side in a non-argument without considering nothing but the most obvious, superficial points.

My faith in humanity is going away at terminal speed.

Note: I am tired of name calling and all that shit. If you want to discuss the problem, ok. I never turn down a discussion, and accept my mistakes when are reasonably pointed. But if you are going to answer with some crappy emotional outburst about me growing a sack or whatever, keep it to yourself and let this post fall into obscurity. If you want to feel good: YES, YOU ARE RIGHT! I AM AN IDIOT! - Now put me into your ignore list and both happy.
