KickStarter We need more buttons

[Zombra]

Shit buttons. Also the SHIEEET button has a white border (transparency issues).

There are transparency issues all right.

 

[DarkUnderlord]

It's a false flag operation. First they encourage racism, then they'd be like "oh the codex has become too racist, let's split it into two sites".

The majority of the staff on this site are either right-wing or at least pro-free speech.

I like how pro free speech is equivalent to right wing in 2021.

 

[fork]

The buttons look bad.

 

[Oracsbox]

I was looking for my sheeeeeeiiiit button which looks splendid by the way and something I was hoping to use almost constantly but I don't have it...instead I find I have a gay purple vampire and what appears to be a haddock !

 

[Jenkem]

Can't wait to rate EVERY post with niggers in it sheeeeiiiit.

implying you won't self-eject before a year is up and move on to a new account lmao

 

[Tarkleigh]

Math seems pretty useless, fishy could be useful but seems a tad too big. Sheeeeeit is probably a bit narrow but I am sure the Codex will find a way to put it to good use.

Would love a FAT button, though. The elephant is a bit too indirect for some use-cases

 

[Peachcurl]

Ok, I added Math! According to the image properties, it's 39px wide by 28px high but if you screenshot the screen it's actually displaying a lot bigger. IDKTF why.

Maybe that's the browser zoom factor? But that also applies to the smaller ones. For instance, the "friendly" codex troll is 22x22, but gets scaled to something like 30x30.

Same here, can't see the button. This is blatant discrimination and, dare I say it, bigotry.

Where is the "you're a ghetto brotha from another motha" button?

Ethnic Studies x1

AKA, nigs are gonna nog.

DarkUnderlord this is more tasteful version.

I'd rather have this than the gay purple vampire

I seem to be lacking a notable number of buttons including slam dunk, kitty, m'lady, quality shit and the likes. How do I get those that I'm missing? Do I need to buy Skyrim again?

You need to become DU's paypig.

I'm not sure, but maybe participating in fundraisers work too?

 

[Sukhāvatī]

Yeah, any type of donation I believe.

 

[rusty_shackleford]

Fishy: good
Math: also good
Sheeeiittt: meh? It will lose its novelty in a few days and it has no real purpose. Feels very tacky and out of place.

It would be very free speech of you to give us a "gas the jews" button btw.

 

[Twiglard]

Can't the bloodsucker Kermit the Frog version stand in for the Jews?

That's what

is for

 

[Cunt Dickula!?]

Just a substitute. Won't ever get the real deal because of t-dude.

 

[SixDead]

Oh yeah, Fishy one is a perfect button for the "PUSSY Crowd" thread

 

[Haba]

For fuck's sake.

 

[Ol' Willy]

New buttons look awful and should be redrawn and rescaled

 

[Jedi Master Radek]

I don't support adding the "sheeeeeeeeeiiiit" button. Racism is better when it occurs organically, not when the staff are officially encouraging it.

It is lame. I've always admired the Codex's stance on "anything goes" moderation, but this shows a heavy bias. Like, you walk in the door and it's "Here's your white hood and your cross burning kit, you don't have to wear it if you don't want to, that's free speech!"

Consider the difference between "Codex has many racist users" and "Codex is a racist site". All those people you think are dumb for saying it's a racist site? They were just proved right.

Agree. Already too many shitposters from GD are spamming RPG discussion threads, making finding valuable posts more difficult with each passing day. Why encourage such behaviors? I signed up for RPG Codex, not GD Codex. We don't need more shitposters immigrating to Codex. We already have some users that are Bethesdatards and think Fallout 4 is good. Do you want more to come here? I came here exactly to run away from people who thinks Skyrim is a pinnacle of RPG design. And those are people this new button will bring.

So, yeah I think that button should be removed.

 

[Nano]

I'm sorry, I know the black guy button is racist, but it's just so funny that I can't resist clicking it.

Sheeeit: Feels very tacky and out of place.

More than that, it feels mean-spirited. Mean-spirited and directed at people from a certain part of the world. I actually like being exposed to all the good and bad speech on this site because in my day to day I am in a cultural bubble, and in a lot of ways the voices on this site remind me of my roots growing up in a small rural setting where people debated cultural issues constantly. That’s a healthy debate that I unfortunately don’t get often IRL any longer.

The new button is not good, and actually makes me a bit ashamed to browse the site. And the solution isn’t to add equivalents for all ethnotypes.

Mean-spirited and out of place for the codex is my verdict.

ps fish and math suck too but most buttons do so it’s just more of the same.
