Hello. If you are new to our community it might be hard to fit it at the beginning but if you follow a few rules you will be liked in our community.

1. Post in proper forums. If it's Bioware game, Skyrim or Diablo then it belongs to cRPG discussion.
2. Be funny. Funny pics and a large amount of one lines are accepted especially if you try to put any kind of joke in them. Be sure to post a lot of emoticons to be understood because it's hard to show emotions over the internet.
3. If you are called Drog's alt, Liberal or Andhaira that means you're doing quite good so far. It is kind of a meme of ours to call some new members like that. It comes from the olde times when our forum had a few great and intelligent individuals with with who posted really interesting and/or funny posts. If you remind us of them you might be called their alt but no one thinks you actually are an alt.
4. Report. If someone is really mean to you then you should report him to our moderation which works hard to keep our community friendly and at bay.
5. If you would like to share your opinion about certain game you don't have to look for a topic about that game, you may create a new thread. It is quite common for everyone to make a fresh topic to make sure everyone will read it, otherwise it could be lost in the comments of another one.
6. If you don't like someone then put him on an ignore list, this way you will make this place a bit more friendly. It is popular between codexers to ignore each others, it shows their wit of filtering unnecessary spam.
7. General discussion is the place to start your adventure with the codex, you will find a lot of interesting topics in there and you will meet many interesting people who will help you in a kindest possible way.
8. If you have any technical problem, like you don't know how to insert a sound card into a PC or how to reinstall Windows, you don't need to make a new topics, instead send a PM to our professional IT specialist, Crispy.
9. If you have any problem with certain user or with moderation in general be sure to notify DarkUnderlord about it. He sometimes doesn't read messages so you should send him a few messages so he would notice you.
10. If somehow for any reason you feel like you do not fit in there, that doesn't mean you have to give up RPG forums. There's another place called http://rpgwatch.com/ which warmly welcomes everyone.

Thank you for registering and I hope you will have a good time on our forum.

10 steps on how not to be liked by Syril:

1. Do not post in proper forums. If it's Mass Effect or Dragon age then it belongs to cRpg discussion.
2. Don't be funny. Post some retarded shit and I guarantee you will be hated by everyone.
3. If you are called Syril's alt, dumbfuck or a retard that means you're doing quite good so far on being hated. It is kind of a meme of ours to call some new members like that. It comes from the olde times when our forum had the usual degenerates and retards. Remember - the names change but the story always remains the same. No matter how many alts you make, if you are retarded the chances are that your next alt will be discovered pretty quickly.
4. Don't report. Being a snitch is for fags and loosers (and women)
5. If you would like to share your opinion about certain game - don't, we don't care, fuck off.
6. If you don't like someone then deal with it like a man with honor. Putting on ignore list is for fags and loosers (and women).This way you will not make this place more friendly but you can read all the retarded shit which you hate and you can rage even more and spread the hate.
7. General discussion is the place to start your retarded shit and being instantly labeled as Dumbfuck!. You will find a lot of retarded topics by retards for degenerates (and retards [and aspies, don't forget the aspies]) and you will meet many angry self-hating people with mental disorders and sexual frustrations who will hate you with pure passion.
8. If you have any technical problem, like you don't know how..... Konjad seriously? wtf
9. If you have any problem with certain user or with moderation in general send a lot of jewgold to DarkUnderlod and he will do your bidding.
10. If somehow for any reason you feel like you do not fit in there( because there is a big chance that you actualy don't, who am i kidding, YOU DON'T !), that doesn't mean you have to give up rpg forums :)chuckles:). There's another place called watchitz which warmly welcomes everyone is probably the best place for an idiot like you.

Commentary:
5. Or we would pay attentions to it and bash it to the mud. Be prepared to defend your opinions. You are entittled to the ability to defend your opinions, not the opinions themselves.
6. Your ignore list sometimes can be used as ammunition against you. Though the butthurts it generate can be great, the devastating effect of our occasionally correct reading of your list may be greater. So use that feature with foreknowledge.

Your ignore list.

Hmm. GD is where all the Codex girls usually hang out and also where all nude pictures from said members are. I's a pretty awesome forum.

I suggest removing #7 from the list, lest someone pulls an Elliot.

Guys, I have a quick two-step guide (with an optional third step) that is comprehensive and easy to learn.

Step 1: Don't be a jew
Step 2: Don't be a faggot

The bonus step is, don't be a nigger. But that is optional.

wtf, i thought codexers were all jews, or faggots, and niggers anyway

What if you're a "Black Hebrew Israelite"?
