First they say that I have to wait a year to brofist, now they say that they are gone. I sure fucking hope they'll won't delete GD and shoutbox until March 2015.

Besides, before I had to be careful about posting shit to get tat sweet 1:1 achievement. Since they don't mean shit now, and the only way to show your status is number of posts. Shitposting is the best way to gain street creed.

Exactly! I've been teetering on the brink of that achievement for a few months now so ALL my posts were full of quality, knowledge and wit. But that burden has been lifted from my mind and now I can post with about as much thought and care as I fart while home alone.

Dat sweet, sweet unintended consequences of our rulers' actions. :smug:

I would honestly like Brofists to be gone permanently. The Codex used to stand in defiance of all modern social media conventions before moving to XenForo, and introducing the likes of custom avatars or brofists has caused nothing but further decline. This isn't fucking Facebook or Reddit, and thank god for that.

Not that I care either way (I think I brofisted one post total, and that was to show support to soneone who wasn't a codexer in the first place), but brofists on the codex have always been dumb. If people are worried about contentless +1/agree posts flooding the codex, that's more of an indication of general poster quality. There are quite a few forums/communities on the net where "+1 posts" never became a problem ...

I've never seen a public forum where people don't chime in to repeat the same thing 800 times, which is essentially +1. Brofists solve that problem, to an extent, by allowing posters to endorse whoever best sums up their own opinion -- until the thread reaches 999 pages, that is, and you do start getting endless repeats because reading the whole thing is crazy. Anyway, if you don't want +1, but also don't want fisting, you make the userbase smaller and start culling the herd based on the ratio of increasing post-count.

How in the Codex will members with superiority complex able to nag at you and make sure the maximum amount of views for that if brofists exist?
So check your non-superior privilege :rpgcodex:

I honestly don't get why some people in this thread hate the brofist feature that much, I mean does it hurt anybody?! And look into other forums without a like feature, reaction gifs and witty one liners are found there too. In my mind this is like those old people from the muppet show complaining about everything

You old grumps :P

RPG Wokedex Strap Yourselves In
Exactly. If someone wrote a stupid post one person could write that the person in stupid and other would just brofist him. Now everyone who disagrees have to go in and tell that person why they think he's wrong. Makes threads clusterfucks.

We need to start thinking of the true victims of this change.

Won't anybody think of poor anus_pounder? What will he do with his life now that he can no longer fist? What about all the anuses lives he touched with his fists? It is truly a sad, sad day.
anus_pounder is now the Emmanuel Goldstein of RPG Codex. It's mandatory for all Codex Outer Party members to gather in the shoutbox once a day for the two minutes hate against anus_pounder's divisive brofisting. Also, a doubleplusgood newsflash has this moment arrived from the frontlines. Codex forces have won a glorious victory against RPG Watch. I am authorized to say that the action we are now reporting may well bring the forum war within measurable distance of its end.
