So, anyone wondering what the codex would look like if the rule had continued to be upheld?
What?Just read the OP. I'm very happy that the Codex is moving into a good direction. By 2010, we can hope to make it back into a sensible place.
Missing SJWs on that elephant.

Are you sure? Going by the way the rule is written, it would have removed mostly thepeopletrolls hanging in GD, not those that made the conversation on RPGs interesting (of course I didn't see how it was applied, so I could be off by a mile).

Can't have good convos of any kind if there are rules against free speech or if there is censorship. Why would anyone want to post in a forum where you have to be constantly mindful not to "piss off a mod", or that you don't "offend" someone? How could any worthwhile discussion happen in such an environment?
Stormfront's origins date back to being a bulletin board in 1990. There were always nazis on the internet.Surprised to see that internet Nazis were already a thing in 2007 pre-/pol/. Also this ruling is so hilariously tame lmao it's basically "It's ok to be racist, just don't say it out loud"
Shit we don't want on our forum is shit we don't want on our forum, irregardless of whether or not it shows on the front page.

'irregardless' is not a word.
Someone resurrect him so we can amend this!
Few words draw the ire of grammarians as swiftly as irregardless. The term has been in use in English for over a century, but whether or not it’s a “real word” or one you should use in daily conversation continues to be the subject of debate.Irregardless is a nonstandard synonym for regardless, which means “without concern as to advice, warning, or hardship,” or “heedless.” Its nonstandard status is due to the double negative construction of the prefix ir- with the suffix -less. The prefix ir- means “not,” while the suffix -less means “without,” literally translating to “not without regard.” This, of course, is the opposite of what English speakers generally intend to convey when using this term; for this reason, style guides unanimously urge against using irregardless.
Although editors purge irregardless from most published writing, the term is alive and well in spoken English and is recorded in most dictionaries. Those who use it may do so to add emphasis.
The bottom line is that irregardless is indeed a word, albeit a clunky one. That said, to avoid the wrath of your grammar-loving friends, it’s safest to avoid using irregardless altogether.
