Session Ident: #hrwiki
[21:15:25] * Now talking in #hrwiki
[21:15:25] * Topic is 'Welcome to the Homestar Runner Wiki IRC channel. Visit us on the web at http://www.hrwiki.org.'
[21:15:25] * Set by JoeyDay on Tue May 17 19:45:28
[21:15:25] -AbdiLaRue- Welcome To #hrwiki Tom39! To see what bot modes are on, please type 12!status on12.
[21:26:51] <Tom39> !status on
[21:46:34] * JoeyDay has joined #hrwiki
[21:48:00] <JoeyDay> Tom?
[21:48:07] <JoeyDay> !op Tom39
[21:48:08] * AbdiLaRue sets mode: +o Tom39
[21:48:12] <JoeyDay> !op JoeyDay
[21:48:13] * AbdiLaRue sets mode: +o JoeyDay
[21:50:59] <Tom39> Joey.
[21:51:02] <Tom39> Seriously
[21:51:06] <Tom39> We don't need a bot.
[21:51:14] <Tom39> I'm just posting in the forum about it now.
[21:51:19] <Tom39> No one is ever here.
[21:54:44] <Tom39> What do you need the bot to do?
[21:58:02] <JoeyDay> We always had the mode set to "moderated" (+m) before.
[21:58:09] <Tom39> Yeah.
[21:58:14] <Tom39> You don't need a bot to do that.
[21:58:14] <JoeyDay> So, when a new user would enter the room they wouldn't have voice.
[21:58:24] <JoeyDay> Well, you need a bot to give voice to folks.
[21:58:28] <JoeyDay> Or do you?
[21:58:30] <Tom39> No, we never did +m
[21:58:34] <Tom39> We had +nt
[21:58:39] <JoeyDay> Oh.
[21:58:45] <Tom39> No external messages and ops set topic.
[21:58:46] * JoeyDay sets mode: +t
[21:59:06] <JoeyDay> Can we still take away voice?
[21:59:13] <Tom39> We don't need voice.
[21:59:33] <Tom39> Why would we need ot take it away?
[21:59:55] <Tom39> s/ot/to
[21:59:59] <JoeyDay> If someone was swearing or something. I dunno.
[22:00:05] <Tom39> We kick them.
[22:00:08] <Tom39> Ban them.
[22:00:18] <JoeyDay> Ha! Was that a regular expression, Tom?
[22:00:21] <Tom39> But it doesn't matter, since no one is ever here.
[22:00:22] * TestUser has joined #hrwiki
[22:00:25] <Tom39> That's IRC lingo man.
[22:00:27] <JoeyDay> "s/ot/to"
[22:00:37] <TestUser> So, here I am.
[22:00:39] <Tom39> Fix spelling of "ot" and change it to "to".
[22:00:54] * JoeyDay sets mode: -v TestUser
[22:01:00] <TestUser> Is my voice gone?
[22:01:03] <JoeyDay> Nope.
[22:01:05] <Tom39> You never had a voice.
[22:01:12] <JoeyDay> Hm...
[22:01:19] <Tom39> You don't need a voice.
[22:01:26] <JoeyDay> I seem to remember we had the bot set up to give people voice when they walked in.
[22:01:32] <Tom39> We did.
[22:01:35] <Tom39> Last summer.
[22:01:38] <JoeyDay> I guess we really don't need it.
[22:01:41] <Tom39> For no reason.
[22:01:44] <Tom39> That's right.
[22:01:56] <Tom39> Don't worry, no one comes here.
[22:02:05] <JoeyDay> I still want to keep the bot though, so we can keep oper privileges.
[22:02:37] <Tom39> If you want.
[22:02:42] <JoeyDay> Well, I'd like to see this place get going again. I don't know if we can advertise it better on the wiki or something, but I think we could get it popular again.
[22:03:02] <Tom39> We link to it from over 6000 pages on the Wiki.
[22:03:06] <TestUser> Well, that's it. You guys blow. I'm leaving.
[22:03:22] * TestUser was kicked by Tom39 (Blow this)
[22:03:30] <JoeyDay> LOL!
[22:03:56] <Tom39> I'm usually in #wordpress on freenode anyway.
[22:04:05] <JoeyDay> What IRC client do you use, Tom?
[22:04:19] <JoeyDay> #wordpress is on freenode, too?
[22:04:24] <JoeyDay> What else is here?
[22:04:26] <Tom39> Everyone is on freenode.
[22:04:35] <Tom39> #mediawiki, #wikipedia
[22:04:54] <Tom39> Every IRC channel that I can remember going to is here.
[22:05:09] <Tom39> For support for different software, and the like.
[22:05:43] <JoeyDay> Is it called "freenode" for a reason? Does it have something to do with open source software?
[22:06:17] <Tom39> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freenode
[22:06:25] <Tom39> Yup.
[22:07:37] <JoeyDay> Oh. Well, is this a good place for us to be?
[22:08:11] <Tom39> Sure.
[22:08:56] * Tom39 is now known as Tom39_
[22:09:59] * Tom39_ is now known as Tom39
[22:13:27] <Tom39> I guess I'll register us.
[22:16:06] <Tom39> Oh oh oh oh oh!
[22:16:08] <Tom39> Okay.
[22:16:15] <Tom39> http://freenode.net/channel_guidelines.shtml
[22:16:19] <Tom39> I registered us.
[22:18:11] <Tom39> brb
[22:18:11] <JoeyDay> Is that why it kept popping up with some message about NickServ?
[22:18:19] <Tom39> No, that's you.
[22:18:19] <JoeyDay> do they have NickServ on this server?
[22:18:23] <JoeyDay> Oh...
[22:18:31] <JoeyDay> I've never noticed that when I log into #mediawiki.
[22:18:32] <Tom39> Every one should register with the nickserv.
