  • 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?

Oh for goodness sakes hardcode, all I said was:

1. I'm getting tired of the heavy upswing in dumb racist (meaning here 'making idiotic fun of black people') content that's coloured (!) the site of late (what, am I not allowed to have this opinion?);

2. If there are threads which seem to exist purely for that type of crap, how about retardoing them, since it's the type of dumb shit that retardo land IS MEANT FOR?

I'm not the only one who's noticed this trend of late - see section8 and DamnElfGirl's posts above.

And for the last time, I AM NOT ASKING FOR POSTS TO BE REMOVED SIMPLY BECAUSE THEY MAKE FUN OF ANYONE'S RACE.

Just to clarify:

1) My religious dispute was an actual discussion with points and arguments and it was in the General Forum.

2) I don't moderate forums or edit text content of posts. Like I said somewhere above, idiots should be handled by regulars, not by admins.

3) I remove openly posted pictures that are not work-friendly because that would only result in less people participating in discussions from work. Links are a fair game, anything else isn't. I will ban any repeat offenders.

4) All dumb Oblivion threads will be moved to Retardo Land where they belong.

@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.

No sense trying to figure Mr.Fancypants out. He's a rich cracker from twinfalls, Idaho. He puts stupid racist shit in posts denouncing stupid racist stit. He has never made a coherent or consistent arguemnt. he contradicts himself every time he turns around. And he is a crazy hipocrite that reads too much into things and spins in nonsense about liberals, etc.

I believe he is what is commonly called a narcacist. The world revolves around him and he is allowed not to make sense, because the world revolves around him and his fancy fucking pants.

My only question is what sort of interdimensional rift do we create if we work in a porn studio?

Gee, I can do that one too. Hey - you're sticking up for the right of people to be racist - yet you're getting all upset if I do it - YOU R A BIG HIPPOCRIT!!11

I'm fairly new here, and quite frankly LOVE the unmoderated nature of this place.

My take on it is that if your intention is to allow total freedom of speech, you can't then go about imposing abritrary limits to it - it's either total or it ain't freedom, right?

I've noticed racist trends too, but only from certain people - which is good in a way because it allows us to get to know those folks as they really are, we don't have to see a watered-down version, we get the real person talking, yeah?

And we can either read their posts, skip them, or challenge them. This is what free speech is all about, and more power to it!

Personally I despise racism, but that's just me. What I despise more, though, is Political Correctness - you can't even tell jokes any more without someone jumping down yer throat for being 'insensitive'!

Fuck that.

As for the dubious piccies, yeah, linking would be better - but on the other foot, surely anyone who comes here does so AT THEIR OWN RISK?

Just before I go, I need to say a big THANK YOU to this place, just for being grown up. Sure there's the occasional pimply juvenile who drops in to say fuck just because he can, but generally speaking, I really appreciate the intelligence, maturity, and humour of the vast majority of the residents here :)

Says the post right after a big goofy crayon colored picture of Martin Luther King Jr.

Are you really that retarded? Can you read? Does your narcisism allow you to register and decode any information correctly or coherently?

Step carefully, Twinfalls, roqua is half black or something, which means he can run faster and jump higher than you. I heard that their weakness is swimming. If he comes to pimp your ride or whatever they call it, head for the coast!

Why aren't there more embedded NSFW images in this thread?

You're all a bunch of pussies.

Jeezus, kiddies - I know we all dream of eternal youth, but that's no excuse for behaving like 12-year-olds!!

Pathetic, the lot of you.

Thank you and goodnight - see you tomorrow... :)

As retarded as you? Clearly not.

Can you read?

Yes. You?

Does your narcisism allow you to register and decode any information correctly or coherently?

Does your stupidity allow you to maintain an argument without giving up and using irrelevant words you cannot spell?

If being consistent equals retarded, and being a hypocrite does not, then it makes sense why the world is as it is today. You are calling for a certain type of moderation that you agree with and that would make you personally happy. You do not won't moderation that would limit anything that you do.

I am saying that that is stupid. I want people to be able to do things I disagree with or that i would never do, because I believe in freedom and autonomy. You do not.

I have only made one thread here, and that was a long time ago, and was about rpgs. I have never posted an image. I want idiots to be able to use racial slurs aginst me. I want people to be able to police themselves. Peer pressure is the right way, more rules aren't in my opinion. Here is another irrelevant quote.

Aww, the big bad world is getting roqua all sad. Man up, bitch.

You are calling for a certain type of moderation that you agree with and that would make you personally happy.

Moderation that already exists here - retardo land.

You do not won't moderation that would limit anything that you do.

If I post dumb shit in threads that are entirely dumb shit, then I'd expect it to be retardoed.

I want people to be able to do things I disagree with or that i would never do, because I believe in freedom and autonomy.

So you want people to be able to post up threads full of nothing but dumb shit, without them being retardoed. I was pointing out that threads which consist of nothing but faux-'ironic' race pictures and comments - with no argument or discussion, are dumb shit.

It is you who is arguing for a change in moderation policy. I merely suggested some consistency. Why do you stop there? Why not argue for the dumb Oblivion threads currently in retardo land to be returned? Why not keep the Russian spam threads? You are a hypocrite.

I want idiots to be able to use racial slurs aginst me.

Very happy for you. I hope your dreams will be fulfilled.

Here is another irrelevant quote.

And one for you:

"Formulate your own thoughts instead of regurgitating other peoples' platitudes - or shut the fuck up" - Twinfalls, 2006
