I made a post on tumblr to this effect before the policy reclarification that a few number had responded, saying that before the policy change many wanted to leave, myself included. It included many other posts where people said "yah I avoided RPC for these and such reasons"
I have not seen a similar sentiment since the policy reclarification but I could be wrong.
I know people who have left the RPC permanently because of the general air of hostility which is permitted to linger, and not because of .gif use. Among these people and including myself, the 'anti-image-and-no-text -post' rule is seen as a treatment for the symptoms and not the disease.
Edit: I'm still waiting for osric's meme post to be warned in the roast thread > :3
