Reading through the thread that got him banned, Slumlord just seemed like a poor man's Hiver. No intelligence or je ne sais quoi charisma behind forced, try hard vitriol. Bring back the real deal and waste no more time thinking about a flushed turd.

Fuck me I wish I had a forum of my own or was a moderator here because I just want to tell people: Fuck no I'm not gonna remove shit you don't like, it's called free speech you communist faggots get fucking used to it. Go to some other place. I'm not going to fucking regulate anything except spam, threats, phishing and advertisements and that's that.

Hey, I have no idea what's happening again, and I'm very weak in covert behind-the-scenes intrigues as any normal autist, so can anyone expain?

throwing around racial slurs is too much

What exact slur did he use?

Last thing I'll say here is that 'freedom of speech' is designed to protect people who do things such as speak out about the government. It's not designed to protect hate/racial prejudice/edgelords. Being edgy or "anti-sjw" or regurgitating whatever your favorite alt-right youtuber says doesn't make you creative.

You see, I belive this is true from american point of view, because all their "freedoms" and understanding of it pointed exactly on government and limiting its way toopress people, but doesn't have anything with limiting the ways to opress people through Rich People (tm) and their private property in broad sense.
So you should be protected if you spoke agains government, while Rich People can twisting your arms whatever they want.
It's just replacing the tyranny of the government with the tyranny of the Rich People.
It have no rights to have word "freedom" in it. It's just masked oligarchy, and fascism in the end.
You would better to understand that this is root of your problems.

As a practical side conclusion - RPGCodex is a privat site and property, and what is freedom here is being set by Administration (tm).

its is beyond ironic when far right wingers cry about freedom of speech.

Sadly, it isn't.

My 2 cents:

As much as I agree with a lot of what slumlord was saying in that thread, throwing around racial slurs is too much. I really don't want to visit here and see that kind of language in every post (or any post really), it's super offensive and banning people like that really is necessary.

Then go to literally every other website that polices language for thought crime, nigger.

What you censorship craving faggots fail to understand is that quality posts/content come from creativity, censorship induces self-censorship which is the death of creativity. Eg: if every time I stop to write a guide/analysis I have to worry "are my words going to make some faggot butthurt and get me banned?" I simply won't even bother. And that's the same for everyone.

It's quite telling that the people who call for censorship are always the ones whose posts aren't worth reading, so they don't even have a clue on how creativity works.

When Kingdom Come Deliverance sold very well, you spazed out about how games were finally free from the tyranny of niggers and trannies. It was such a bizarre and embarrassing outburst that a developer of the own game you were praising came in and told you to settle down. Censorship is bad, but just because you can say whatever you want doesn't mean composure isn't appreciated. In my opinion, the guy that got banned needed to slow down a bit. He was raving like a lunatic in multiple threads looking like he desperately craved the admiration, or at the very least, attention, of the entire website. It was very obnoxious. But that's just my newfag take on it :)

/vr/ claimed to be "less worse" than /v/ but when they started talking about cRPGs their posts felt like it was written by Codex lurkers that don't have the balls to actually join the discussion here. I don't know what to make out of this.

Moderators have different ways of dealing with problematic users like giving warnings. Then again Infinitron has 5 of them and still hasn't been banned so maybe he knows from his own example that they don't work.
