Oh my, another pepe straight from 4chan, that's a major disappointment. I prefered Fantadomat's cope to be honest, at least it was creative and original and he had the common sense not to have that ugly, pale grey outline. He also tried to use the Codex troll which is at least forum related. What a letdown. Now the buttons have even less of a visual identity too.

Time to raise the bar back up:

Sheeple:


A. Whole animation:

B. Just the walking animation.

C. Some static concepts:

It looks completely off putting because of the stark contrast between it and the normal codex emotes. It needs a complete overhaul to fit in more.

I've reworked ''It was the Alien'' and made a ''bait'' one.

Coming soon: RPG Codex renamed 4chan Annex

I mean, RPG Codex has a unique mascott, what was the need to back down on a stale, seven year old meme from another forum? Worst decline ever. We've even had decent and unique suggestions by other members for ''cope'' as well (not even counting mine). What an odd decision.

At least anyone can be at ease at posting their own versions of various buttons now, as whatever is being selected is certainly not indicative of what is creative or qualitative.

It does look out of place but not because the current buttons have any sort of cohesion. They originate from all sources and resolutions. So anything beind added can only fit with some the buttons, not all.

And why is this a premium button? Should be included in the free pack.

Should, but for some reason the new negative ratings are kept away from it.

It needs a complete overhaul to fit in more.

Or perhaps the existing buttons do...

The bait could stand out better from the background, and it doesn't need to be animated at all. Remember that even the existing buttons drag down the site's performance.

That's a sad state of mind.
And believe me, I'm familiar with sad states of mind.

Making fun of you at this point would be punching down so I won’t, it’d be like laughing at the handicapped kid. But, Christ, don’t you think it’s about high time you start setting your priorities straight and maybe turn your life around? Do you really want to be the middle aged guy who spends his free time sending pm to the rpg codex’s females in hopes of luring them to your parents’ apartment with a fucking Frankfurt, sauerkraut or whatever it is German people eat, in hopes that they’ll pity fuck you? Don’t you think you have more urgent matters to attend to than complaining about the state of buttons on 4 chan 2.0?

Like, stop trying so hard in being a cunt and maybe you won’t feel like a totally worthless loser at the end of the day, has this crossed your mind? I’m sorry this sounds harsh but you needed an urgent wake up call about 20 years ago. Now get your shit together and stop whining on how sad you are. The last thing you need is another shoulder to cry on and tit to suck on.

The problem is the outline. It’s so small that it looks off if I use one (as it ends up being 1/3 of the size). Regarding the animation, one of the buttons you like is the rage one and it’s pretty intensive animation wise but I guess you mean to only animate when it’s absolutely necessary. I just think a plain hook won’t be much to look at. I’ll give it a shot anyway.

Yeah, the concept isn't great. I wanted a pixel art looking slut, but the icons are already so small you can't make it lower fidelity and read at all.

Upside, "Begone Thot!" is a close enough substitute and gives me a reason to use it.

Surely peepostare should be added. It'd be invaluable in the cases where you want to communicate "I see your post, and I'm not sure what's wrong with you or how I should react, but I think something is probably wrong with you".

For a long while I've wanted a button that was just ‘ok.’

Please add the OK button instead of this dumb forg
