i joined the codex 17 (holy fuck) years ago because it was the last bastion of free speech, chasing only truth and objectivity, the only place in the world where oblivion was seen as the total turd it is. it mirrored myself. people were mature enough to shout "fuck off" or "kill yourself" at each other and to not take it too seriously, mods included. people from outside pointed the finger "the codex is hell because it has no moderation!!1!", actually the codex was heaven because it didn't need it, as they meant it to be applied.
the moment one of those pillars cedes, the whole codex falls down.

tinfoil hattery time: somebody is trying to sanitize the codex in order to attract a larger user base or to sell it altogether.
Listen son, I've been on the Codex for 47 years, back before you were even in diapers and were just a sprog swimming around in your father's nutsack. We built this place out of cardboard and styrofoam because that was all we could get our hands on at the time and asbestos had just been banned. And let me tell you, son, the Codex has always needed moderation.

From the homeless drunks that used to wander in thinking they could piss on the floor, to the trolls who'd argue with Saint_P before he'd smash their head in with a hammer because he got tired of their shit. And nobody was mature. It was a house full of idiots posting shit about compoota games while rubbing their genitals to the latest Bras 'n Things catalogue.

It wasn't heaven. It was hell. And we liked it for that.

There would be plenty of buyers for codex IF there were a purge campaign in place and rebuilding of userbase around the more advertisement friendly demographic.

This place is tainted beyond all recognition in the eyes of anyone who knows of it. We're the evil den of nazis.

Look at NeoGaf. Everyone wanted to buy that, but as soon as allegations against the site admin came out the rep was instantly tainted.

You don't recover from that shit in current_year.

Rusty asked the administration to buy the Codex before, but was ignored as, I suppose, it was not considered a serious offer, or there was no interest.

Why would I be lying next to DarkUnderlord?
I believe that is what they call "slash fiction", sir.

slash fiction​


noun Slang.
a type or piece of fan fiction involving usually same-sex romantic relationships between fictional characters or famous people, whether or not the romances actually exist:Sherlock Holmes/Dr. Watson slash fiction.

The internet still was absolutely fine 17 years ago, so calling the Codex the last bastion of free speech in 2006 is going a little bit over the top.

He did indeed register in 2010 (https://rpgcodex.net/forums/threads/what-was-your-very-first-codex-post.52522/#post-1424121) just lurked here since he beginning as we all did.

So yes, he joined 13 years ago not 17, aka, basic math fail

Strange how there are posts from 2004, maybe there is a time machine in use somewhere.

Or possibly there was a site before this one, and people had to reregister? (maybe I'm asking questions I already know the answer too also)

Lurking before you register is a thing also, but whatevers.

Point out where he specified this site and not the codex, and I'll agree that I moved the goal posts.

ur just being pedantic because I "owned" you.

I don't need to because he said he posted the first time in 2010, hence you were wrong

The Codex is as old as time itself. I've read posts from 2002. Like a cockroach, it will withstand everything thrown on its way. Don't go to SEA though. You'll be turned into a cookie.
