This site was special because anybody could say anything they wanted but I see this site taking on more of a filtering and censorship role

[RolePlayer]

What's with the new posters having to go through approval period? Is this site a wannabe Reddit or Facebook now? It's stupid to censor posters and lock the gate and not allow the free flow of ideas

there's a lot of newbies out there who won't post now because they don't want to bother going through the mandatory probationary period and we all miss out on good new content as a result.

If people spam with new accounts you just ban them or we use the community tools to ignore them I don't see what the big fucking deal is

Just the fact that I need to publish this opinion is already a loss.

 

[King Crispy]

New posts get approved sometimes within minutes. If there's no one online to approve them at most it takes until the next day.

Gigantic nothingburger.

 

[Melcar]

There is like -1 mod in charge. And like op is a massive faggot. It's for your freedom and security.

 

[Jvegi]

I had to go through that in 2012. Hardly a recent development.

Also, I wasn't crying about it like a little bitch back then.

 

[normie]

so, what's your alt?

And then they make a new account and spam and we ban that one too.

At least this way, we know they're alts at the door. And if they try spamming, it doesn't go anywhere.

The HQ also uses this feature. You really don't want to see the flood of spam that would happen if this were turned off. The internet isn't what it was in the 90s/00s.

would you say that the codex is going down the toilet?

 

[The_Sloth_Sleeps]

If I am not mistaken, and I am very often mistaken, I had to wait an entire year before I was allowed to post when I joined. It was worth the wait.

A year to post in Codex's toilet section, normal gaming parts you can post from the moment you start

Yeah like I think it was a year before you have full privileges. At least I think it was Codex, my memory isn't so great these days.

Oh you are like allowed to post in some parts or something, is that correct? I actually still do not have full access to all the threads for some reason.

Weird, you should have. Did you get banned from some sections for posting something particularly edgy?

 

[Bester]

While I was on probation period in 2014, I used to post in a thread that was very quick. So by the time my post got approved, it appeared 10 pages behind and nobody saw it. It felt ridiculous, like talking to myself. I agree, let people post. Disallow new threads if you want before approval.

No never. Some threads have this:

 

[Grauken]

That's likely in retardo land, where threads too dumb even for the codex go to die. Nobody can reply to those, except maybe admins

That's indeed a retardo sticky.

Edit: Liberal is upset for some strange reason.

 

[King Crispy]

It looks like Liberal is shit rating everyone here he doesn't like. Super passive-aggressive.
