Have you noticed how most of the site drama disappeared once it left? I think most of the TZ members have accounts here still, Meb still has her account and Theo still has his account.

It's almost like removing gossip box fixed most of the site's issues. Like there were some people hanging around there baiting people into drama 24/7 or something. Weird.
One does not throw out the baby with the bath water. If toxic drama disappeared after M and T stopped posting, then the solution is to remove M and T (mostly T, tbh, M is harmless on her own), rather than limiting site features.

I can't take it anymore. To all you idiots who think this is some "weird" random post by DU, check the Chris Avellone news story on the FRONT FUCKING PAGE. It's a copypasta, you morons.

This place is full of fuck.

My apology is a legitimate apology that's been formally approved by lawyers and accepted by all parties.

Refrain from posting, so at least you will appear less retadred.

What kind of staff would call his customers "idiots"? Or "morons"?
Such a behaviour is not appropriate for a staff member at all!
Crispu, methinks it's back to staff school!

It's actually kinda cozy.

Crispy is that disgruntled old janitor that works at your high school. Mumbling silently under his breath and pushing a leaky bucket down the hall with his mop..
Occasionally he gets in a tussle with another codexer and the principle puts him on mandatory-vacation for 2 weeks.. then someone shits in a urinal and he's begrudgingly brought back in.

The most important thing to remember - he does it for free.

Crispy is more like the student from the Special Ed class that gets to help the Janitor during recess because he doesn't do well with the other children.

Some time ago, I made slanderous remarks towards members of the Turtle Zone. When I made these remarks, they reflected poorly on good and upstanding members of the Turtle Zone who had nothing to do with events at the time. I would like to take this opportunity to say that those good and upstanding members of the Turtle Zone never sexually abused anyone. I have no knowledge that they ever sexually abused any women. I have no knowledge that Rusty has ever misused corporate funds. Anything I have previously said or written to the contrary about Rusty and the good and upstanding members of the Turtle Zone was not my intent. I wanted to support women in the Shoutbox. In so doing, my words have been misinterpreted to suggest specific allegations of misconduct that were neither expressed nor intended. I am passionate about the safety, security and agency of the Codex, people who post on the Codex, people who read the Codex but don't post, squirrels, and every other member that has seen persecution in the Shoutbox. I believe Rusty shares a desire to protect and uplift those communities. I believe he deserves a full return to the Codex and support him in those endeavours which is spelt with a u because I'm not a fucking barbarian.

I appreciate the willingness of Rusty and the good and upstanding former members of the Turtle Zone to work with us in addressing these issues within the Codex, and their advocacy is to be commended and supported. There are still many very real challenges that we face, especially with the squirrels, but I am confident we can face them together. In spirit of these goals, I would ask everyone to respect the privacy of Rusty and the good and upstanding members of the Turtle Zone and use this opportunity as a means to listen to all voices on the Codex, to improve our culture and community.
you sound like a girl.

Was high school so traumatic for you nerds that you have to keep making references back to it all the time?

I actually remember walking down a hallway and seeing a hunched over fat janitor doing exactly what was in my post..
It *was* traumatizing.

Never had I seen a more broken man (at the time, that bar has since been lowered extensively).. I could not imagine this person going home after work and finding any joy in life. It motivated me to pay attention more in school.


EDIT
This isn't a joke / meme.

Immortal proceeded to flunk all his classes and is now a janitor himself.

I always hate it when people shit on janitors (or caretakers as they're known here) because they were always bros in both schools I attended. People would share sweets with them at lunch and shit. Maybe it's partly because they were frequently needed for assitance retrieving footballs from rooves etc.

It seems to be a long running thing in American movies etc. that the janitor is some sort of weirdo.

Janitors are people too, guise!
