03:15 < cereal_killer> bunder: you're a bit over-zealous on the forums today
03:15 < cereal_killer> are you in a bad mood?
03:15 <@bunder> ?
03:15 <@bunder> sorry if you feel that way
03:15 <@bunder> just doing my job :P
03:15 < cereal_killer> i put a thread in FF about the thread you closed
03:15 <@bunder> yes i know
03:16 < cereal_killer> now i'm back i can ask you to unlock it
03:16 <@bunder> mark_alec said no
03:16 <@bunder> sorry
03:16 * mark_alec never said no
03:17 <@mark_alec> i just said that the lock was justified
03:17 <@bunder> ok ok, fair enough
03:17 <@bunder> but i'm not doing it, the admins can supercede me if they feel
03:17 < cereal_killer> that was not a thread pyramid
03:17 <@mark_alec> it was getting there, and the content could hardly be called quality
03:18 < cereal_killer> it was getting there but it never would have
03:19 < cereal_killer> the thread's quality was fine
03:20 < cereal_killer> Groucho Marx v Charlie Chaplin v Peter Sellers was going to be discussed
03:21 <@mark_alec> in the meanttime it was about your penis
03:25 < cereal_killer> that was a quote from "top gun" *actually*
03:25 < cereal_killer> and that is what the exchange was about
03:25 <@mark_alec> i don't really care, there are enough threads in OTW for you to post in
03:25 < cereal_killer> swapping quotes from Top Gun
03:25 <@desultory> cereal_killer: a misquote, actually.
03:26 <@mark_alec> you (and others) should be glad we didn't act more seriously over the quote pyrmaids
03:26 < cereal_killer> so next time why dont you *ask* before presuming
03:26 <@mark_alec> ask?
03:26 < cereal_killer> we both know that quote pyramids can only get a cetain amount of quotes anyway
03:26 <@mark_alec> dear cokehabit, are you going to violate our rules by posting large quote pyramids. kthnxbye
03:27 < cereal_killer> yeah, ask if you don't know what is going on in a thread
03:27 < cereal_killer> as was said before, that was not a large quote pyramid
03:28 < cereal_killer> ask about th content, not the pyramid
03:28 <@bunder> it was 9 levels deep, how is that not large
03:28 < cereal_killer> 8
03:28 <@bunder> kthxpie
03:28 <@bunder> including richk449's reply
03:28 <@desultory> cereal_killer: reread the topic, then try to convince us that there was content in the pyramid.
03:29 < cereal_killer> his reply was not a quote
03:29 <@bunder> it would have been.
03:29 * bunder hides
03:29 <@bunder> admins, save me! :P
03:29 < cereal_killer> desultory: the pyramid bit was an exchange in quotes by 2 people who obviously like the same film
03:30 < cereal_killer> bunder: actually i was planning to do what i usually do, cut it down to the last 2 quotes
03:30 <@desultory> which was on topic in what way, exactly?
03:30 < cereal_killer> films are not on-topic in a thread about actors?
03:31 <@mark_alec> cereal_killer: why are you debating this on a friday morning?
03:31 <@bunder> cereal_killer: doesn't mean richk449 would have
03:32 < cereal_killer> mark_alec: because i have been having sleep problems and i haven't been to sleep
03:32 < cereal_killer> :p
03:32 < cereal_killer> 08:32am
03:32 < cereal_killer> i tried to sleep 5 hours ago
03:33 <@desultory> cereal_killer: then go do something else, continuing this will not help you in any way.
03:33 * mark_alec is listening to Opeth - Still Life - The Moor
03:34 < cereal_killer> desultory: i never usually say anything, if anything i'm usually in favour but this time a mistake was made
03:34 < cereal_killer> and i'd like to carry on the thread
03:35 < cereal_killer> sans quotes
03:35 <@desultory> cereal_killer: the best you'll get is having the pyramids split off and the rest get unlocked.
03:35 <@desultory> the topic will not be unlocked as it is.
03:36 < cereal_killer> and why not? It's being a bit childish
03:36 <@desultory> yes it was, but that's not much of a mea cupla.
03:37 <@desultory> s/cupla/culpa/
03:37 < cereal_killer> you get 8 quotes in almost any thread, there was no anger, no trolling, nothing illegal, nothing against the rules
03:37 < cereal_killer> just someone with an itchy trigger finger
03:37 <@bunder> if i had an itchy trigger finger, it would have been locked hours ago
03:37 <@bunder> i gave you guys plenty of time to clean them up
03:38 < cereal_killer> you never should have done it in the first place
03:38 <@bunder> quote pyramids are part of rule one on the guidelines, are you telling me not to do my job?
03:39 < cereal_killer> if a mod thought quotes were getting too big before there was a quiet comment saying to keep them lower
03:39 < cereal_killer> the rules say to use common sense, they don't specify an amount
03:40 < cereal_killer> there is also an amount of nested quotes that the forum will take so it will never go too far
03:40 < cereal_killer> (i mean it starts cutting them out)
03:41 <@bunder> propose a phpbb mod to tomk then
03:41 < cereal_killer> what do you mean? The mod is already there
03:41 <@bunder> again, talk to tomk about it ;)
03:42 < cereal_killer> after 15 (i think) then it deletes the top quote out
03:42 < cereal_killer> (i mean it starts cutting them out)
