When did commie become a complete dumbfuck?

I'm not like you to gush and fawn every time some two bit developer decides to post a comment on the Codex.

What next? You'll give Dogma7 his own forum, sing his praises and leap to his defense as soon as he shows up touting his latest stolen asset turd?

BitComposer must really be stuffing you with Doritos bro....

Has anybody brought up the irony of HG getting slightly bent out of shape (and bending to complaints) about the fairly innocuous juvenile forum humor of the "Tits or GTFO" achievement while simultaneously announcing Jarl Frank of all people as his community manager and partial writing help?

:lol:

So much shit, so few fans.

It's the same thing as the Auschwitz board, bot at least that time it was local residents who were against it instead of butthurt newfags. The Auschwitz joke was dumb, but changing it just because it might god forbid offend someone goes against the spirit of this place.

Get out of my head!

I knew it! Always had a theory that you and felipepepe were alts of each other.
I don't think I can substitute my broken Spanish for a fluency in Portuguese.


(Seriously, why?)

I dunno. I think I noticed you on roughly the same time, you're both nice guys (a rarity 'round these parts) and you both have similar amounts of brofists. In my head, the lines between where evdk began and felipepepe ended started to blur.

Forgive me.

This "alliance" isn't going to last very long. Codex is Chaotic. I'd be interested to know whether the association causes any noticeable changes in local registrations though

Sil: based on your (justified) criticism, there have been made changes – this alert will not be displayed to new members anymore
Care to comment on this? Are we negotiating with terrorists now?
Yes. If you'd like to hold the Codex to ransom and have terms you'd like us to consider, please contact our terrorist negotiation department care of Crooked Bee.

Guys why think so hard.
Just ban the protesting newfags from CC forums and move them to Prosper threads.
Bro Hobgoblin will understand I think, and Fair Codexia will be a peaceful imperium once again.

Yeah, the welcome message for new female members could need an, ehmmm, update?

What do you suggest?

I have no idea, but currently there is a big discussion about anti-feminism in the game industry. I am also aware of the fact that our future customers are probably 98% male (1% female, 1% roquey) , but I would really embrace any new female gamer in our community.

By big discussion about anti-feminism do you mean that one broad who bilked some white-knighting idiots out of $100,000 to produce a twenty minute youtube video that offered insight shallower than undergraduate level work?

Looks like they won't stop until the chainmail bikini is extinct - had become more of a joke than a stereotype anyway.

And it's hardly surprising that women were depicted as unrealistic fantasy objects in games aimed at a predominantly male audience. I assume after this battle is won RPS will move onto ensuring that men are more 'realistically portrayed' in soap operas / romantic fiction / fifty-shades-of-shite etc aimed at a predominantly female audience? Or perhaps they will just lighten up and stop taking themselves so seriously.

Yeah, is the modern "enemy"... people can't antagonize URSS anymore, so let's crusade against patriarchy to give us a purpose in life or something...

With trends as they are, we'll end up having small/mid-sized studios doing what indies were doing up 'til now, and indies turning to sexist chainmail bikini fantasy ARPGs instead. A market demand is always met in some degree, and I'm not about to give up on chainmail bikinis.

What if the so called "new user" was just another BlackCat/Roguey account, that simply registered with the goal of destroying the codex? o_O
