[msg(tempdog|away)] Your perception of what a "troll channel" is vs. what isn't is just that, a perception. I'm pretty sure that nothing has changed, anyway, (especially on the network, itself) so I still don't know what you're going on about. 11:13AM [TempDog|away(Temp@squeaky.squoggy)] oh 11:13AM [TempDog|away(Temp@squeaky.squoggy)] well I meant that in the old days you just list the top 10 channels 11:13AM [TempDog|away(Temp@squeaky.squoggy)] now you list saladtongs and other chans with very questionable content at best 11:13AM [TempDog|away(Temp@squeaky.squoggy)] what gives? -:- TempDog|away is now known as TempDog [msg(tempdog)] "Questionable content" is a matter of perception. You might think it's "questionable", while I just think it's people; the same as any other people. They send text to the network. The network redistributes it to the other users as directed. I don't know how much more unbiased things can be. 11:15AM [TempDog(Temp@squeaky.squoggy)] uhm 11:15AM [TempDog(Temp@squeaky.squoggy)] they spam the network XD 11:15AM [TempDog(Temp@squeaky.squoggy)] is a more appropriate term [msg(TempDog)] One person's "spam" is another person's meaningful conversation. 11:16AM [TempDog(Temp@squeaky.squoggy)] so invite spam is meaningful conversation then? 11:16AM [TempDog(Temp@squeaky.squoggy)] interresting XD [msg(TempDog)] If you don't like the typical conversation that goes on in any channel listed there, you're welcomed to not join it. 11:16AM [TempDog(Temp@squeaky.squoggy)] uhm 11:16AM [TempDog(Temp@squeaky.squoggy)] I wasn't referring to that 11:16AM [TempDog(Temp@squeaky.squoggy)] people getting spammed off the network [msg(TempDog)] You're complaining about what channels are listed on the web chat page. 11:16AM [TempDog(Temp@squeaky.squoggy)] by sending about 1000 invites per second 11:17AM [TempDog(Temp@squeaky.squoggy)] no just wondering 11:17AM [TempDog(Temp@squeaky.squoggy)] not really complaining 11:17AM [TempDog(Temp@squeaky.squoggy)] I still think yer cool 11:17AM [TempDog(Temp@squeaky.squoggy)] just wondering what happened 11:17AM [TempDog(Temp@squeaky.squoggy)] maybe you hit your head or sumthing bad happened ? 11:17AM [TempDog(Temp@squeaky.squoggy)] like a concussion 11:17AM [TempDog(Temp@squeaky.squoggy)] I dunno, people can change overnight 11:17AM [TempDog(Temp@squeaky.squoggy)] usually due to some injury 11:18AM [TempDog(Temp@squeaky.squoggy)] either physical or mental 11:18AM * TempDog was just a tad worried about ya [msg(TempDog)] People aren't capable of sending 1000s of invites per second. They, themselves, would be knocked off of the serverfor excess flood, not the recipient. The worst I've seen has been maybe 2-3 per second, which is easily taken care of by using a client that has a granular ignore feature and using it to ignore all invites from anyone until it stops. I've *never* seen anyone disconnected because of any "invite spamming". 11:19AM [TempDog(Temp@squeaky.squoggy)] uhm I have logs with timestamps telling me there were at least 10 invites per second, per person 11:19AM [TempDog(Temp@squeaky.squoggy)] meaning that all persons in for example #yeah were inviting 11:19AM [TempDog(Temp@squeaky.squoggy)] at 10/second 11:20AM [TempDog(Temp@squeaky.squoggy)] so 3 is not quite on the mark [msg(TempDog)] 10/second is orders of magnitude fewer than 1000s. 11:20AM [TempDog(Temp@squeaky.squoggy)] ah but that is the thing 11:20AM [TempDog(Temp@squeaky.squoggy)] they do it to me, and the rest of the participants of all the channels they attack 11:20AM [TempDog(Temp@squeaky.squoggy)] making it easily over a 1000 total 11:21AM [TempDog(Temp@squeaky.squoggy)] but what I rather wanna know is the why 11:21AM [TempDog(Temp@squeaky.squoggy)] Why did you change the page? 11:22AM [TempDog(Temp@squeaky.squoggy)] since the event with furnet you seem to have changed a bit [msg(TempDog)] Occasionally, the admins go through the list of channels, and pick a few that they think people might find interesting, I guess. I don't know. 11:22AM * TempDog nods 11:22AM [TempDog(Temp@squeaky.squoggy)] well I can't argue with that, they are interresting 11:23AM [TempDog(Temp@squeaky.squoggy)] in a weird sort of kinda freaky way, like the addams family XD [msg(TempDog)] It's a pretty unbiased list. Anything from sex related stuff to just general chatter, to special interest group stuff, like fursuiting (#fursuit), to fun and fancy free stuff like #saladtongs. 11:23AM * TempDog nods 11:24AM [TempDog(Temp@squeaky.squoggy)] well at least you haven't done it with malicious thoughts behind it, that's a positive thing 11:25AM [TempDog(Temp@squeaky.squoggy)] I was worried ya grew tired of running a chat server and wanted to run it into the ground so no one would blame you for closing it, but I guess that's not the case then ^^ 11:25AM [TempDog(Temp@squeaky.squoggy)] or at least I hope not [msg(TempDog)] Yeah, I think that list offers a pretty good cross-section of what the network has to offer, which is why I was confused by your interpretation of it as biased and, to quote you, "stalin"-esque. 11:26AM [TempDog(Temp@squeaky.squoggy)] I really like going here and so do many of my friends 11:26AM [TempDog(Temp@squeaky.squoggy)] well it does seem kinda odd to me 11:26AM [TempDog(Temp@squeaky.squoggy)] and to others 11:26AM [TempDog(Temp@squeaky.squoggy)] I just am the only one to be asking I guess 11:27AM [TempDog(Temp@squeaky.squoggy)] others just mumble behind yer back [msg(TempDog)] I guess. Nothing has really changed on the actual IRC network. The admins still leave everyone alone to run their own channels as they see fit. It's really baffling that anyone would think anything of the sort. 11:28AM [TempDog(Temp@squeaky.squoggy)] well they ask me 11:28AM [TempDog(Temp@squeaky.squoggy)] and I decided to ask ya 11:28AM [TempDog(Temp@squeaky.squoggy)] there's no other admin I know of that would at least be fair in answering 11:28AM [TempDog(Temp@squeaky.squoggy)] because personally, I only know you (a little bit) 11:28AM [TempDog(Temp@squeaky.squoggy)] the rest I never really spoke to 11:30AM [TempDog(Temp@squeaky.squoggy)] but for the longest time I had the impression you were upset with me ... I dunno if ya are but... 11:30AM [TempDog(Temp@squeaky.squoggy)] just felt that way [msg(TempDog)] *shrugs* Not that I know of. 11:31AM * TempDog nods and stripes that thought off the list then 11:34AM [TempDog(Temp@squeaky.squoggy)] how have you been then 11:34AM [TempDog(Temp@squeaky.squoggy)] since the server crash you never spoke much anymore [msg(TempDog)] Busy trying to get the business off the ground, barely making enough to survive, going into debt, getting older, and snowboarding. 11:36AM [TempDog(Temp@squeaky.squoggy)] oh? you have a business? 11:36AM [TempDog(Temp@squeaky.squoggy)] what kinda business? 11:37AM * TempDog wonders [msg(TempDog)] It's a Smart technology company that specializes in enhancing existing products/devices by giving them remote access and control from the Internet. We house the hosting infrastructure, the electronic engineering, a modular, bolt-on hardware piece, the modular embedded software, and the modular web front-end stuff, so a company can bring us their product and we make it accessible via their web site. 11:41AM [TempDog(Temp@squeaky.squoggy)] also the topic is wrong on the AC chat site " FCS! Your daily dose of total and complete furfaggotry. If you're under 13, we'll show a "special" interest in you." is not the topic [msg(TempDog)] oh 11:42AM [TempDog(Temp@squeaky.squoggy)] {17:43:35} * Topic is 'Welcome to #FurryCoffeeShop! Come for the cookies and stay for the hugs!|Keep things *very* PG |for NSFW go to: #hell and #fluff |related channel: #paradox_furs |info: http://en.wikifur.com/wiki/Furrycoffeeshop |' 11:42AM [TempDog(Temp@squeaky.squoggy)] {17:43:35} * Set by TempDog[zZz] on Mon Dec 06 11:06:44 11:42AM [TempDog(Temp@squeaky.squoggy)] that's the topic [msg(TempDog)] I don't know that the description == the topic on any of those. 11:43AM [TempDog(Temp@squeaky.squoggy)] well 11:43AM [TempDog(Temp@squeaky.squoggy)] who made that description then ? O.o 11:43AM [TempDog(Temp@squeaky.squoggy)] because that is not true 11:43AM [TempDog(Temp@squeaky.squoggy)] we welcome all people OVER the age of Whaaa 13 (as the pawpet show stated) 11:45AM [TempDog(Temp@squeaky.squoggy)] now I personally dun like what that suggests, but seriously ... 11:45AM [TempDog(Temp@squeaky.squoggy)] so but back to the main 11:45AM [TempDog(Temp@squeaky.squoggy)] why aren't you looking for investors then? [msg(TempDog)] I just checked and it says, "FCS! Chatters from all over the globe! Come on in, enjoy, chat, have a good time." [msg(TempDog)] That's pretty much all we've been doing since the beginning. 11:46AM [TempDog(Temp@squeaky.squoggy)] yup it changed now 11:46AM [TempDog(Temp@squeaky.squoggy)] thanks ^^ 11:46AM [TempDog(Temp@squeaky.squoggy)] so what do you require in an investor 11:46AM [TempDog(Temp@squeaky.squoggy)] aka what are your goals 11:47AM [TempDog(Temp@squeaky.squoggy)] what you tell possible investors [msg(TempDog)] There's a lot of stuff... I don't handle any of the IR stuff, though. Plus, I'm busy at work at the moment and don't have time to spell it all out. 11:48AM * TempDog nods 11:48AM [TempDog(Temp@squeaky.squoggy)] well I was wondering if I could help you to some investors you know 11:57AM [TempDog(Temp@squeaky.squoggy)] buuut if yer not interrested that's ok too 05:45AM [TempDog(Temp@squeaky.squoggy)] would you be so kind as to remove this ? http://www.pridelands.org/~simba/drama/tempdog_channellistbaww.txt 05:45AM [TempDog(Temp@squeaky.squoggy)] thank you
