Mentioning stealing and illegal and shit like this was just stupid. Should have kept it true and low for maximum justice (thus making the butthurt all the sweeter).

Regardless, what tossers.

The Codex doesn't copy paste other people's news without attribution. Stealing has nothing to do with it.

... since the good ol' days of RPGDOT.COM ... your members even admit it freely:

The only thing RPGDot.com was good for was for VD to steal news from it.

Crap! Where will I steal news from now?

HiddenX, who never forgets something ... ;)

I like that he ignores the "I have brought it up privately in the past and was completely ignored" part and tells sea to settle the matter privately.

Who knows what happened in the past? There are two sides to every story and I strongly doubt that CP was aware of any previous communications on the issue (as Gorath has confirmed). Clearly, this minor issue would have been simply resolved by direct PMs between the parties in the present. Posting aggressively on an open thread as a first recourse is guaranteed to create unnecessary friction.

Did you even read what I wrote

Yes, you are a thief that leaves an apology note after stealing :lol:


It's a distinction that makes all the difference.

That said, I don't see why anybody has to copy-paste text from a news aggregation site like GameBanshee at all. It's not like their analysis is anything special. The only time I copy-paste text from GameBanshee is when they get exclusive information or a press release or something.

So, RPG Watch is trying to justify something bad by saying that RPG Codex also does it? And failing horribly at that? Tsc tsc... so much for the Lawful, Full-Time working son of RPGDOT... :roll:

Yeah, the stupidity and circle-jerking of RPGWatch will never cease to amaze me. Not seeing the simple fact that all the shit was about attributing the source, whatever it was in this case and going all "Lol Codex steals articles too! Because some people joked about it somewhere in the past!".

Also, the whole butthurt of the Couchpotato going "I'm doing so much for you guys! Love me, love me long time!" and the Watchers responding with a typical for them "Yes yes, you are such a precious little snowflake, do not leave us, do not be sad!" is such a comedy gold of dicksucking.

Seriously fuck off.
I am not trolling; I literally hate you and your slimy trail of passive-aggressive whining and smug, snide grinning. I hate you and I hate your whole disgusting little RPG Watch clan and I literally hope your server crashes and burns.

You're worse than DraQ; at least I'd do DraQ.

Why all the anger? Can we not all just be friends? Granted, the RPGWatch community will be the kind of friends where you tell other people they're mentally challenged simply because it's less embarrassing than the truth. But at least we'll be friends. What do you say?

I refer to Codexers with this term: "Remote relatives which are a bit gaga..."
