  • Welcome to rpgcodex.net, a site dedicated to discussing computer based role-playing games in a free and open fashion. We're less strict than other forums, but please refer to the rules.

    "This message is awaiting moderator approval": All new users must pass through our moderation queue before they will be able to post normally. Until your account has "passed" your posts will only be visible to yourself (and moderators) until they are approved. Give us a week to get around to approving / deleting / ignoring your mundane opinion on crap before hassling us about it. Once you have passed the moderation period (think of it as a test), you will be able to post normally, just like all the other retards.

Can we leave the NSFW shit in links where they belong?

Seriously.

It's not witty. It's not funny. It's not ironic. You aren't comedy genuises by repeatedly posting the same gross shit again and again.

It's supposed to be the RPGCodex not the 'Lothesome Shit'Codex. I wish the moderators would do something about it, but they don't seem inclined too, so... :shrug: :roll:

It should be handled the same way other idiots are being handled, not by admins, but by regular member who don't want to put up with any bullshit, in any form. If every time someone posts yet another dumb fucking joke/picture, don't hesitate to tell him how motherfucking retarded the dumbshit is. I don't think it will take many posts to get the message through.

I'll remove any openly posted offensive picture. To trick someone with a fake link is an art, to post an open picture will only result in less people partcipating in discussions from work. Let's not be offensive, just because we can, kids.

The picture above has been removed, btw. DU, if you disagree, let's discuss it via PM or the Staff Forum.

<irrelevant quotes blah>

Well thanks Roqua for demonstrating your insecurity about this topic.

I am not advocating removal of posts/threads just because there is 'racist' content. What I said was:

I'd suggest retardoing some of the threads which seem to exist purely for a vulgar racist outpour for some of the more 'life-challenged' members.....

In other words, a thread which is basically dumb racist shit is retarded (just like a thread about oh, I don't know - butt-scratching - is retarded), and that's what retardo land is for.

Case in point (and I'm glad it finally went there):

If we're worried about the reputation of this site then maybe we shouldn't go over to the TES forums to pick fights with teenagers and post links back to the Codex. And maybe we shouldn't post in these threads that are so offensive to us, which only bumps and prolongs them.

I love the jackassery that goes on here. It adds flavor when the RPG news is slow coming in. However, posting images of offensive shit has be cut back on as i'm one of the browses at work guys.

Roqua - well quoted!
RPG Codex is about only place where people can say what they want and I hope it stays that way.
Personally, all the shit/racist/whatever talk and pictures don't bother me, if I don't like something, I just skip over it.

No. there is no connection between a wish to what someone want to see and whether "they can take it". you can say some coll sarcastic things sometimes, but this stuff is just silly and contains no humour whatsoever at this point.

What is the difference between dumb racist shitand good racist shit? Or is that a moral or ethical line? Every quote was relevant. And how can I be insecure on the subject. I'm basically fighting for the rights of people to make fun of me.

Why don't you fight for posts containing dumb anti-Christian shit sent to retadroland? Why is your ethics or morality or sense of dumb shit better than other peoples? Why just the racist shit? Why not the sexist, anti-fag, or nationalistic shit sent to retardoland? Are you raceaphobic? Scared to confront racism because you in fact are a racist yourself? Is Mr. Fancypants offended? Need a big negroid cock in your cracker ass, bitch?

Stop crying bitches, wipe the sand out of your ginies and man the fuck up.

By FUCK you're a dumb cunt, Roqua.

And you ask this question because? It has no relevance or even meaning, so...

Every quote was relevant.
How impressive that you've quote Noam Chomksy. I hadn't figured you for an anarcho-syndicalist. And it's so relevant - that's right, Roqua, this isn't about stupid people clogging up boards with dumb pictures, it's about institutionalised propaganda under the capitalist system!! You anarchist free-speech warrior, you!

And how can I be insecure on the subject.
Easily, since you're stupid and black, and the subjects are nigger pictures and stupidity. Two counts of insecurity right there for you.

I'm basically fighting for the rights of people to make fun of me.

Well, you're defending the right of stupid people to post up idiotic shit, so you are acting in self-interest.

Why don't you fight for posts containing dumb anti-Christian shit sent to retadroland?

If a thread is basically comprised of 'LoL herez my piktur of Christian Bibel-fuckers LOL lol LOL', then I'd expect it'd be retardoed. We just haven't had any of those. The threads about religion have pretty much all contained discussion and heated debate.

Are you raceaphobic?
Yeah, college track meets have me terrified and cowering.

Scared to confront racism because you in fact are a racist yourself?

(slaps forehead) That must be it! Now, what was I going to say... oh that's right - Yee hah, go and bale more hay, junglebunny, or I'll have you tied up and let kingcomrade play with your smooth, moisturised ass (he's just rearin' to go).

Need a big negroid cock in your cracker ass, bitch?

Someone you know got one? Your dull, fat, hairy, slap-happy mommy perhaps?

Seriously, the nsfw crap is getting way out of hand. Mostly goatse and tubgirl pics were put behind links. But recently nearly every thread has some crap manga porn or other nsfw pics out in the open. (see for instance the "oblivion will be the worst thing ever" thread) Stuff like this can get people in serious trouble at work or school. Please, do something about it.

There is the difference between puttin a redguard pic on an NWO album cover and linking the Nord to Scandinavian culture (I mean that "van Hellström" thing)?

What are you saying? You mean the redguard thing is or isn't racist/appropriate?

Just because you have a right to say something, does it mean anything ought to be said?

I started posting to the Codex because there were good conversations here, and I found the brash atmosphere amusing. But for fuck's sake, guys, a lot of the recent stuff lacks the suave sophistication of a Pooperscooper post.

It's not funny. It's not clever. It does not make you a big man or a defender of our vaunted right to free speech. It makes you an idiot, and the Codex is not for idiots. The Codex is for intelligent asshats.

Give me my intelligent asshats back, and retardo-land the stupid shit. While I love the unmoderated nature of this forum and by no means think we need to play nice, some people just need kindy-garden teachers.

I'm getting tired of the stupid racist shit as well. I realise it's harder to justify censorship of that stuff, but the sheer amount of 'Ha ha nigger picture watermelon lol' cannot be doing the reputation of this site any good. It's mainly two members, one of whom has contributed pretty much nothing here but idiotic gigantic lego and tranny pics - and now stupid racist shit as well.

I'd suggest retardoing some of the threads which seem to exist purely for a vulgar racist outpour for some of the more 'life-challenged' members.....

Well, first of all, the only time I've seen someone type "nigger" in any of these threads is the person complaining about the thread. I've yet to see light sterotypical satire contain the word "nigger" in the post, unless I've missed something. For instance, the TES4 character "Jamal" was never indicated as a "nigger", but did have light sterotypical content. Chris Rock uses more racial slurr words and sterotypes than anyone on this forum, in the name of comedy. How does anyone even know that the posters of the sterotypical comedy aren't black themselves? Why doesn't anyone complain about the blonde haired, muscled Nord with blonde women acting subservient and throwing themselves at his feet?

Section 8 is right ... America has too many complexes. America is so "politically correct" that you can't even sneeze without some liberal moron fucker taking you to court for saying "Go Bless You" after that sneeze, because you are in a public library.

These satires here aren't exactly the KKK. I agree it wouldn't be nice to show people depicted as slaves or burned in ovens in the satirical imagery. What is going on is nothing that a Hollywood comedian wouldn't be getting paid good money to do on stage.

Oh, but I agree not to embed pictures that are Not Safe For Work. I had to quickly close down the page a few times while browsing during lunch.

Oh for fuck's sakes - I am not an American. The whole fucking internet has become so 'politically correct' that you can't even sneeze about dumb racist shit being dumb racist shit without people whining and bleating about all these 'Liberals' coming and dragging them away to court and stopping their beloved free speech and whatnot. I cannot give a fuck about stupid Americans and their desperate insecurity about these 'Liberals' ruling over them like tyrants (who won the last election in that country again?). Fuck off - if I want to say stupid racist shit is stupid racist shit, I fucking well will.

As to your other point, Hardcode:

Well, gee whiz, you caught me out. For fuck's sakes, again. It's not the use of the word 'nigger', and you really should be able to infer the pretty clear use of that word to sum up the type of 'humour' that's been ramped up by a few posters in the spate of pretend-'ironic' dumbfuckery we've had lately. Read section8's comment, if you didn't the first time.

And you did miss something. Read through the thread again, you'll find the word 'nigger' alright:

http://rpgcodex.com/phpBB/viewtopic.php ... r&start=25

Even though THIS IS NOT THE POINT.

Why doesn't anyone complain about the blonde haired, muscled Nord with blonde women acting subservient and throwing themselves at his feet?

Because there hasn't been a cumulative pretend-ironic nord 'racism' current running through many threads that's become tiresome and just plain STOOPID lately.

I don't care about political correctness, I'm just tired of dumb shit especially in the General RP-fucking-G forum.

@Twinfalls: So in other words, instead of you skipping over those posts, like the VD vs. ExMonk religious posts that I skip over, you need to publicly cry about it? I don't get it. It doesn't bother you in moderation, I presume you are saying, but once it reaches YOUR point of too much, it's time to take action? I'm just trying to figure this out.
