What happened to Kalin

[Russia is over. The end.]

The health and husbandry of a forum ecosystem never entered into the subjective calculations that these two mathematicians were computing.

Meanwhile DU who was supposed to be the adult in the room turned out to be a clueless dumbfuck. This shit is depressing.

 

[Fedora Master]

Kalin wanted to display that the Jew has no power here.

He of all people should have known better.

 

[Corvinus]

So what have we learned from the Kalin / Maxie saga so far?


01.) That the average Codexer is treated with utter disdain by the site's "leaders".

02.) That said "leaders" try to pass themselves off as the adults in the room and yet fail miserably at every turn.

03.) That there is a clique of honourless sycophants willing to lap the "leader's" anuses raw.

04.) That the Codex is an outlet of paid presskits being passed off as "news".

05.) If you mention this fact often and loudly enough you will be encouraged to leave - through being bullied rather than banned outright.

06.) The latter part of point 5 is in place so that it can be said that the Codexer left of their own volition.

07.) You can also be messed with in a similar manner (bullied off the site) if your presence offends said "leaders", even if you just made a substantial donation.

08.) You might be doxxed by everyone's favourite paid shill. Even if this leads to serious real-life consequences for you (and it has for some) it's fine. If the average Codexer hints at doing something similar in turn, even if it's simply reposting his (publicly available) name, he'll be cast out in a heartbeat.

09.) If you donate to the site your information appears to be shared freely and arbitrarily with people who shouldn't have access (I'm thinking especially about the one in point 8, who wears dishonesty like a cloak).

10). Finally, said "leaders" appears to be completely out of touch with many of the long-term visitors of this forum, with each new decision being more clumsy and stupid than the last. It would seem that the act of running an ant farm is the attraction rather than RPGs.

 

[good fucking shit happen]

 

[Nutria]

03.) That there is a clique of honourless sycophants willing to lap the "leader's" anuses raw.

At this point I'd suck just about anybody's asshole if they don't work for Reddit.

Scruffy do you disagree with any of that? Ratings do not count as arguments or refutations. If you can't use words you should go back to the caves.

 

[Demo.Graph]

Demo.Graph approaches human interaction as if there is an objective logic to it.

I expect a guy with a 10 year old account to bet it somewhat intelligently.
I expect moderators to moderate, not be butthurt trigger-happy monkeys.
Everything else is a break time shitposting.

 

[Atlantico]

Humans interact, not to achieve mutually beneficial and logical outcomes, but to exercise power over each other.

The Chaotic Evil group has spoken. Anyone else from the alignment bros?

This isn't Reddit?

Idk I'm just here for the beer and peanuts

Mistaking the messenger for his message.

I'm basically TN, because to use a different alignment chart that is one shade less hokey, I'm INTP. I simply perceive and describe the reality of human existence without assigning a value.

The admins, on the other hand, might be LE and CE respectively.

 

[Atlantico]

I'm basically TN, because to use a different alignment chart that is one shade less hokey more autistic, I'm INTP.

All characters consider themselves TN. Nobody thinks they're "evil" or "good".

So whatever you are, you don't recognize it yourself. Everyone thinks they have the balanced, rational take on things. Especially the Chaotic Evil ones

 

[HeroMarine]

I'm INTP

 

[Can't handle the bacon]

Muh science!!!

 

[Bibbimbop]

True, except for one obvious fact: plenty of people think they're good. In fact, those are the ones you watch carefully.

But if I'm not TN, then why did I pet a stray cat yesterday after kicking a puppy? Explain that one, Mr Galaxybrain Gygax.

I'm INTP

Fun Fact: INTPs are under 5% of the population, but over 95% of the population that cares about Meier-Briggs classifications.

Muh science!!!

Don't fear it. Just follow the science.

Spoiler

The science says ur gay

 

[Can't handle the bacon]

Science is god!! Obey, bigots.

 

[Atlantico]

Very true, good point. I do suspect that to be a sort of a natural neurosis, i.e. that many people want to label themselves in their own minds as "good" to stroke their ego, or to make up for something horrible they did in the past.

Those who outwardly proclaim to others, that they are "good" are of course scary and should be watched carefully.

But if I'm not TN, then why did I pet a stray cat yesterday after kicking a puppy? Explain that one, Mr Galaxybrain Gygax.

True, that's a very

action, but have you considered you may be C

or L

?

 

[Storyfag]

True, that's a very

action

To the contrary, such lack of consequence clearly indicates one of the C alignments. Or aversion to doggos, probably due to extended contact with Maxie

Sounds chaotic stupid, or stupid evil to me.

I know this is kind of a pathetic (and underwhelming, maybe even disappointing) reply, but since I'm desperate and still without buttons: lol

After 20 years, history has run its course and as with all institutions founded by men, always, the codex has been corrupted by those in charge of its well-being. Inevitably, the time of diaspora has come, codexers establishing their own colonies elsewhere.

So is talking about videogames allowed on this forum or will I get banned just like Kalin?

I think it's by now firmly established that the powers that be can and will fuck with you as much as they want for any reason.
