<modemhero> Yet Another Pointless Comment
<Gerdesas> so was that.
<modemhero> I thought that's what this channel is for now :)
<Hellow> This is a useless comment?
<Gerdesas:#netrek-dev> Oh, isn't that special?
*** Gerdesas (n=jrd@unaffiliated/gerdesas) has joined channel #netrek-dev
<Gerdesas> if you have to ask....
<BasicOSX:#netrek-dev> You are special Gerdesas .. Don't let anyone tell you different
<Gerdesas:#netrek-dev> Speaking of special. your listserver failed to deliver messages to me yet again. not even a delivery attempt in my logs that I can see. specifically zach's postings about his netrek archive.
<BasicOSX:#netrek-dev> Excellent, thanks for the confirmation that my RBLs are working
<Gerdesas:#netrek-dev> on *deliveries*?
<Gerdesas:#netrek-dev> amusingly enough my MX is not listed on a single RBL of the 102 I check. just a datapoint.
<BasicOSX:#netrek-dev> No no, you are in my inflated-ego RBL, since you think you single-handedly save netrek from itself
<Gerdesas:#netrek-dev> Nice. So much for hosting public mailing lists for the good of the community
when you can't actually deliver messages.
<BasicOSX:#netrek-dev> you aren't good for the community
<Gerdesas:#netrek-dev> Coming from someone that doesn't bother to play I find that amusing. Coming from someone that is out of touch with the game and the community I find it sad.
<Gerdesas:#netrek-dev> If you seriously believe that Bill and Joe are "good" for the community you are even more out of touch than I suspected.

<BasicOSX:#netrek-dev> Bill is an ass, but he code a ton, so, he's good for the community. He's also
the only win32 client developer which my "out of touch" mind knows is the most widely used client, so without him a vast majority of the community would not have a client to play on.
<BasicOSX:#netrek-dev> I do not know Joe enough to say anything
<BasicOSX:#netrek-dev> In all honest you could drop off the planet and nothing in netrek would change, that cannot be said of Bill
<BasicOSX:#netrek-dev> Your contribution is inter-structure, which is duplicated other places, admin
of someone else's hardware and server, and a whole lot of ego
<Gerdesas:#netrek-dev> Your pastebin'd refereces are followups to the thread, not the original posts. My original statement stands.
<BasicOSX:#netrek-dev> You are welcome to start your own mailing list services, or google group, or what have you.
