Preface: I am Snoonet network admin [2014-04-03 04:17:40] * Your hostmask: sid11863@snoonet/admin/Techman [2014-04-03 04:17:49] * Your user mode: +o [2014-04-03 04:17:49] * - Don't mess things up; we are all watching and will laugh at you [2014-04-03 04:17:49] * You are now a NetAdmin [2014-04-03 04:17:49] * Your user mode: +oWs [2014-04-03 04:17:49] * *** ANNOUNCEMENT: Techman used SWHOIS to set Techman's extra whois to 'knows a lot about IRC and SASL' [2014-04-03 04:17:49] * Your user mode: +WsoiIw [2014-04-12 23:03:55] a poll for changes in the snoonet config [2014-04-12 23:04:15] I kind of want to add owner (. symbol), mode +q [2014-04-12 23:04:48] isn't it typically ~? [2014-04-12 23:04:52] and +a gives &? [2014-04-12 23:05:22] typically yes but clients like xchat, mIRC, irssi recognize the . symbol as owner [2014-04-12 23:05:25] (mode +q) [2014-04-12 23:05:36] for scripts etc [2014-04-12 23:05:46] ~ is +q (owner) [2014-04-12 23:05:56] we can change it [2014-04-12 23:05:58] & is +a (protect/admin) [2014-04-12 23:06:05] owner was first introduced by IRCx [2014-04-12 23:06:06] Yes but why would you go out of the norm redv [2014-04-12 23:06:12] which is the IRC extended protocol [2014-04-12 23:06:19] the norm? [2014-04-12 23:06:24] The norm is ~ for +q [2014-04-12 23:06:31] to you it is [2014-04-12 23:06:39] to people who've been on IRC A LOT longer, it's not [2014-04-12 23:06:40] No, check every IRC network that has +q [2014-04-12 23:06:49] they almost always have ~ [2014-04-12 23:06:53] that's because they changed it from ~ to . [2014-04-12 23:06:56] I don't want ~. [2014-04-12 23:07:06] from . to ~* [2014-04-12 23:07:24] i don't think so, i don't think i've ever seen . except on one really small server [2014-04-12 23:07:32] Yes [2014-04-12 23:07:36] . is not the norm [2014-04-12 23:07:44] I don't know why snoonet has to try to distance itself from the norm [2014-04-12 23:07:49] when most clients look for ~ [2014-04-12 23:08:36] I don't understand your comments sometimes [2014-04-12 23:08:37] "2 levels above op is called Owner, given the mode string designation +q, and is represented by the ASCII ~ (tilde)." [2014-04-12 23:08:43] http://xchatdata.net/Using/UserlistStatusIcons [2014-04-12 23:08:53] I don't see how, in any fucking way possible that snoonet tries to distance itself from 'the norm' [2014-04-12 23:09:22] If you choose . as owner prefix that is distancing itself from the norm [2014-04-12 23:09:45] Every single network I'm on that has owner is ~ [2014-04-12 23:10:13] ~ looks retarded [2014-04-12 23:10:36] No it doesn't [2014-04-12 23:10:42] It is a tilde [2014-04-12 23:10:51] it looks retarded. [2014-04-12 23:10:53] <~Techman> vs <.Techman> [2014-04-12 23:11:01] which makes more sense? [2014-04-12 23:11:05] i think we should use a } to symbolize our uniquity [2014-04-12 23:11:07] I'd choose the former [2014-04-12 23:11:11] it's not about 'making sense' [2014-04-12 23:11:22] can i quote you on that? :) [2014-04-12 23:11:24] If we don't make sense how do you expect communities to use us? [2014-04-12 23:11:50] Techman: please fuck off. [2014-04-12 23:12:04] I'm trying to tell you what makes sense irc wise [2014-04-12 23:12:11] not something about "IRCx" [2014-04-12 23:13:24] whether it's a ~ or a . it doesn't affect any thing, it will have nothing to do with communities using us [2014-04-12 23:13:31] and this, this is why I said we need a poll [2014-04-12 23:13:32] Yes it does [2014-04-12 23:13:43] if we have owner support we need to make it make sense [2014-04-12 23:13:52] Every IRC user I know thinks of owner as ~ [2014-04-12 23:13:57] No one except you has said it was . [2014-04-12 23:14:03] "hey forum what does . mean before a name" "i don't know, you must have a hipster server ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ " [2014-04-12 23:14:20] "hey forum what does ~ mean before a name" "owner, duh" "thanks" [2014-04-12 23:15:31] seriously though, i think a poll would be a good idea [2014-04-12 23:15:40] 7.1. OWNER (IRCX +q) [2014-04-12 23:15:40] The OWNER mode indicates that the user is an owner of a [2014-04-12 23:15:40] channel. Only a channel owner can give OWNER mode to another [2014-04-12 23:15:40] member of that channel, but any owner may remove OWNER mode [2014-04-12 23:15:40] from themselves. [2014-04-12 23:15:40] Clients in IRCX mode see owner nicknames with a '.' prefix [2014-04-12 23:15:40] and continue to see hosts with a '@' prefix (in results [2014-04-12 23:15:40] from NAMES, WHO, WHOIS and other commands which list [2014-04-12 23:15:40] nicknames). [2014-04-12 23:15:41] Note that HOST mode uses +o, which was "operator" mode in [2014-04-12 23:15:41] RFC1459. Syntax for these modes is the same as "operator" [2014-04-12 23:15:41] mode: [2014-04-12 23:15:41] MODE { + | - }q [2014-04-12 23:15:55] congratulations, you can read IRCx information [2014-04-12 23:16:03] that's never used that way in practice [2014-04-12 23:16:05] seriously though, i think a poll would be a good idea [2014-04-12 23:16:07] we are not IRCx, I know this. I just like the idea of owner being a . [2014-04-12 23:16:12] aight [2014-04-12 23:16:20] that's what a poll would be good for [2014-04-12 23:16:29] settling silly admin debates like this [2014-04-12 23:16:54] also like, maybe a suggestions box kind of thing [2014-04-12 23:17:11] there's no real forum for users to formally suggest features, so we should add a way to facilitate that [2014-04-12 23:17:33] see how we can further cater to the reddit/subreddit owner community [2014-04-12 23:18:26] what do you think? [2014-04-12 23:19:46] I think, therefore I am. [2014-04-12 23:19:56] 2brite4me [2014-04-12 23:37:00] 11:35 PM <@SaberUK> haha oh wow [2014-04-12 23:37:00] 11:35 PM <@SaberUK> IRCX? [2014-04-12 23:37:00] 11:36 PM <@SaberUK> Techman: ask them to name networks which actually implement this [2014-04-12 23:37:09] ^ InspIRCd Developer [2014-04-12 23:44:53] I don't know what that's in reference to [2014-04-12 23:45:02] implement what? [2014-04-12 23:45:47] and IRCx was on irc.msn.com , in 1998 [2014-04-12 23:46:06] why are you pasting things I talk about in this private channel? [2014-04-12 23:46:46] what do you guys think about implementing a suggestions box [2014-04-12 23:47:16] that's what I'd like, the post I have on snoonet.org asks them to post to the subreddit [2014-04-12 23:48:56] maybe do a memoserv thing too "Snoonet's still growing! If you have requests or suggestions for features, we'd love to hear them! Post in /r/snoonet with your idea!" [2014-04-12 23:49:03] where's the post? [2014-04-12 23:49:42] www.snoonet.org [2014-04-12 23:49:54] no shit lol [2014-04-12 23:49:57] i mean i don't see it [2014-04-12 23:50:11] Snoonet will be turning 2 on Apr 28! [2014-04-12 23:50:27] oh ok [2014-04-12 23:50:30] that mouse print [2014-04-12 23:52:10] you should add it to infoserv, so users see it when they connect [2014-04-12 23:52:34] i feel like there's a lot of input we miss out on because users feel like they can't communicate it over IRC and be taken seriously [2014-04-12 23:54:30] I've already suggested that [2014-04-12 23:54:47] I'm building a bot in php (cbx) that will be able to tie things from the site and the IRCd [2014-04-12 23:55:21] also keep logs of floods, etc, all useful information that can be accessed via a website [2014-04-12 23:56:00] go ahead and add it to infoserv then, i don't think anybody wouldn't be for that [2014-04-12 23:57:27] feel free [2014-04-12 23:57:43] i don't have sadmin anymore [2014-04-12 23:57:49] or oper [2014-04-12 23:59:50] * rdv kicked Techman (we'll let you know when you can rejoin this chan, if at all.)

It had nothing to do with merit. This was a punishment because I "crossed" him by asking InspIRCd developers about IRCx. If it weren't for Paradox, he would have removed me from staff entirely out of pure anger. Those are his emotional intentions; what he may say now could be different.
