What if we split the Codex into two sites: RPG Codex + Political Codex?

Ban all women too.

All three of them?

Maybe more if we include.. ehh.. "augmented" women on the list.

I think he was already counting those. I don't see how "three" is attainable otherwise.

Scrooge, Padzi, Mibbles. Actual active females.
Lilura - that's a 50/50 chance if you ask me.
There's some others, but I don't remember the names.
Oh, and there's maxie. He's currently discovering his female side in the showers of shoutbox prison.

Scrooge, Padzi, Mibbles. Actual active females.

Scrooge is a username changer, so she can't be considered a human being and doesn't count.

Mibbles is actually a cat pretending to post through his owner, so she doesn't count either.

Padzi said mean things about rusty's mom, therefore she lost her female privileges and doesn't count.

Better luck next time.

Does Crooked Bee still exist or did she fly vertically into space?

Recent global geopolitical events along with our generally more lazy approach to "free speech" (or at least more free speech than other places give you), have resulted in a steady rise of political discussion here on the RPG Codex. To the extent that some have recently expressed concern that the RPG aspect is being lost in the politics.

Statistics show that since 1 Jan 2020, there have been 786,320 new posts made on the Codex. This represents 11% of the total 7,077,829 posts made in the entire 19 year history of the Codex.

Of those 786,320 posts:

262,124 (33%) in the various RPG forums (including News & Content, and Developer / Hosted sub-forums)
222,040 (28%) in Off-Topic Forums (excluding Politics)
184,209 (23%) in Politics, God & The Wealth of Nations and its two sub-forums
116,610 (15%) in the General Gaming forums
1,337 (0%) in Administration which oddly, happened entirely by chance

Of note, as a single forum, Politics out performs every other individual forum, including GD. If you include the two sub-forums, it out-performs GD by almost 50,000 posts. This is despite the requirement that to even see the forum, you must have been a member for at least 12 months.

We've also been invaded by Poles. Although this is a side issue and in no way relevant to the conversation topic here.

A suggestion has been made that to ensure our RPG focus, we split the politics off into its own site. With political news. Focussed on politics. Entirely separate from the RPG Codex. With its own forum, domain name, and user registration required. Run under similar rules, but probably with a few extra in order to stop it from turning into StormFront Lite.

Political discussion then simply wouldn't exist on the RPG Codex. The forums would be focussed on gaming only. In fact there may not even be a General Discussion, with all of that pushed over to an entirely separate site (or a limited GD with anyone wanting to engage in politics being directed over).

Hmmm decentralisation never leads to anything good. Also the political shit is mainly because there no games to talk about. We haven't had a good rpg in like 2 years now. Last year dungeon of naheulbeuk was pretty good but not AAA for some posers,still good discussion. I believe that with more games coming out we will see a bit of drift toward the rpg forum. I came here for the rpgs as it is me hobby,but now shitpost mainly in the politics because there is no games to talk about. Everything is in EA or kickstarter. I am not opposed to the split,but i doubt that it will be good for either forum,it is splitting the userbase that way, Also sadly i believe that politics have become an inevitable part of rpgs,shoving our heads in to the sand won't change it. People will still talk politics in the rpg forum,as they are part of it. It makes sense to do it if you are afraid of some real world consequence.

 

[fantadomat]

Just ban everyone

Or at least everyone who joined past 2014

Interesting how in me 4 years here i haven't seen you contribute anything of value to any rpg discussion....just saying grl.

 

[Clockwork Knight]

People who come here with suggestions on how to improve the codex by turning it into one of the generic sites they don't visit are an interesting bunch. Like people who think a perfect mix of spices should leave the food tasting like nothing.

Crypto-currency? Seriously, what the fuck is wrong with this world. You can't host a gaming themed website without harassment and potential prison sentences anymore if it has a dissenting political section? What the fuck has happened to respecting free speech.

Reported for fascist dogwhistle.

This mirrors daily life, and the way everything has become political.

You could split the site. But the real world would keep on intruding, and you’ll be right back where you started.

Splitting the site would also probably kill it.

[Can't handle the bacon]

I think this is a fantastic idea and should be implemented ASAP.

 

[Stella Brando]

Do it.

 

[Haba]

Do it.

What if we split Stella Brando into two posters, Stalin Brando and Tranny Brando.

Which part of the codex will have health passports which will be checked by moderators? I no longer feel safe without some form of government having its finger up my rectum, and I'll move to that forum.

Both of them. Get your semi-annual booster shot, bigot.

So, it's two fingers then. I feel safer already.

Listen, chud: You need to trust the science. Just lube up and take your monthly fisting, and we can finally end this.

Mostly.

Eventually.

Maybe.

Would I be killing grandma if I refused? Ok, anything for science and the grandmas it protects.
