Vapourware Has the Codex been getting better? (eeeeww)

I remember the days when we had separate subforums for old RPGs, while everything past Morrowind I think went into "new RPG" category. Also, if I am not mistaken, at some point only messages posted in those threads counted messages posted, while GD posts did not...? As a member for some time I can't say if it is indeed getting better. There were some years with shitty RPGs coming out (the usual stuff the Codex hates) and maybe that is when it felt that the activity was lower but with all the new games that have come out in recent years, I'd say the Codex is getting at least more active, if not better.

I agree 100% with buzz and the things that he mentions there give the Codex a special charm.

Love you guys :love:

Truth, stalk that man. (CUT)

Add to that some of our members are awesome module creators (Skacky, Melan, JarlFrank will probably join it soon as he is working on FM for Thief), one guy is working on moded version of Temple of Elemental Evil and we have one of best CYOA writers around there.

Cuck is a manly manly man. For pictures and evidence go through the gamergate thread.

On topic, I just followed the people posting from interplay forums and was lurking the codex since its inception.

The ads suck and are intrusive like a motherfucker if I'm not logged in.
Main page is still a piece of shit with bunch of links all around with the main content being in the middle taking 1/4 of the screen.

Content is still good for the most part, main decline being PoE review marathon and some random apologetic reviews made just so Infinitron can put em on Steam curator page.

Forums are more open, in the days if you mentioned anything that wasnt hardcore people would just shitpile on you and troll you to death. Now being bigger, there's always some faggot addicted to the same shitgame you play and most of the people show enough restrain to gtfo the thread they have no buisness being in.

I don't even know what a cuck is.
short for "cuckold" - the husband of an adulteress, often regarded as an object of derision. The term "cuck" has been used a bit more broadly by the Codex/GamerGate crowd though, in order to refer to the sort of man who would allow his wife to be an adulteress or else cause it through his weakness.

Of course, now it's being watered down even further and is being used as a general pejorative. Meh.

Never really spent any time in the SJW threads... I just assumed a Cuck was someone who preferred RTWP to TB.

Cuckbots are the loyal servants of Bitchqueen Anita, Destroyer of Fun. They plant sleeper agents in forums to slowly corrupt them from inside. If detected early the infection can still be cured, but as soon as they reach a position of power like moderator or admin, it's all ogre.

Then came a period where Codex became more vicious, and less analytical, with lots of toilet humour and shock porn.

That was me. All of it

Cuckqueans are underrated.

Though as far as I can tell (I've done no research) there is no or little cuckquean discussions/pornographics on the scale of the cuckold fetish. Man, some men are weird.

What a vile falsehood. "Cuck" is used in the context of GnomerGnate to reference the milling hordes of beta white knight orbiters desperate to outdo each other in extravagent mating displays of their commitment to male feminism and "diversity" (i.e. chubby white women they wanted to fuck). These rituals typically involve repeated public denunciations of "toxic masculinity" and the like, often accompanied by orgiastic frenzies of self-flagellation, such as Nathan Grayson's pre-GG departure article from Rock Paper SocJus, in which he profusely thanked his colleagues for teaching him to check his privilege. Yet this is invariably insufficient for the Tumblratii, who will publically excoriate their "useless cis male allies" over twatter, victims nodding respectfully and thanking their accusers for educating them even as shrieking reprimands ring in their ears. Many explorations into the Cuckolding fetish attribute it to some strain of sadomasochism, where sexual pleasure is derived from feelings of humiliation and powerlessness, for example when Zoe Quinn publically dismissed Alex Lifschitz - her rich-kid patron for the past year - as merely her "partner" and "not my boyfriend", comparing herself to George Clooney and Lifschitz to a woman, then proceeding to explain in great detail why he was now "unemployable" due to her dragging him into the radioactive diaster zone that is her life.

It's not hard to see how this quickly caught on with GD/pol posters (but I repeat myself) in which the unexplained interracial aspect of cuckoldry comes into play.

Just searched this stuff. Vintage cuckquean in particular is awesome. Thanks honky.
