That seems to be something made up by the author of the article, not an actual policy.

That is true, although he isn't wrong. Here's thePAX site with teh rules: http://east.paxsite.com/safety...

The Sumo Wrestler would be disqualified for many reasons. Here is a typical sumo wrestler http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-OujS...

He would be disqualified for several reasons. His navel is exposed. His breasts are aggressively exposed, his shorts are higher than 4 inches above his knees, and he is almost naked.

I suspect a lot of people might find his size, muscle and bulk making them uncomfortable, so he'd probably get a safe room complaint total boot form teh conference But the big question - are we sexually aroused? I suppose there is a rule 34 for Sumo wrestlers, but it must be small.

Sadly, yes, its glory days are clearly behind it. If you want some examples of what you're "missing" here are some actual panels from PAX East this year (I'm going with East because it looks like the links aren't permanent and these will likely stick around the longest, but you can find similar bullshit in all of them):

Enabling Co-Op Mode: Improving Identity-Based Conversations
Press XY Presents: Trans Against Insanity: Celebrity Edition
Isometric Podcast Live! (That's LW3's podcast. You know, the woman who was "forced out of PAX due to death threats." Yet here she is, with a panel...)
All the Feels: Empathy in Indie Game Narrative
Talking FINAL FANTASY XIV: Heavensward with Naoki Yoshida (OK, this one isn't an SJW panel. I just find it amusing that, despite being one of the worst MMOs of all time, five years later, it's still kicking. Weeaboos are amazing.)
Industry Inclusivity: Games are the People Who Make Them
Press XY Presents: Transgender Characters in the Spotlight: Then, Now, Tomorrow
Censored! Do Gamedevs Have Creative Freedom? (Don't let the title fool you, this is the other panel LW3 did.)
Foreplay: Romance in Games

I could go on, but - you get the idea.

The thing that's really depressing is to think of the panels that got rejected in favor of this SJW bullshit. And that's ignoring crap like the "diversity lounge" and other bullshit that's been thrown into the show to try and please the SJWs.

Which doesn't work! Mention PAX to an SJW and they'll just start talking about dickwolves to you. I don't know why they even bother.
