    1. @doates what did you do?

      Thursday, 17-May-12 20:11:15 UTC from StatusNet iPhone
      1. @renovatedkitchen Made @redenchilada ban me for no reason.

        Thursday, 17-May-12 20:12:49 UTC from web
        1. @doates :(. That's not too nice.

          1. @renovatedkitchen of coarse it;s not nice. He is misusing his power.

            1. @doates I'm sorry to hear :(. Have you asked him why he did? Maybe it was by accident?

              Thursday, 17-May-12 20:18:24 UTC from StatusNet iPhone
              1. @renovatedkitchen Nah, idc. You know what, we should have "Mod A Day" type of events. Where a user gets to be a mod for one day and see what happens.

                1. @doates That sounds like a terrible idea. Let's do it.

                  1. @bitshift day 1: carcino

                    1. @redenchilada Hmm?

                      Thursday, 17-May-12 20:23:27 UTC from web
                    2. @redenchilada You could have the roulette bot pick them! :)

                    3. @redenchilada Day one: Abigpony. Y'know. Since he's so much smarter and better at moderation than everyone else on staff

                      Thursday, 17-May-12 20:24:41 UTC from web
                      1. @ceruleanspark yes this is true

                        Thursday, 17-May-12 20:25:40 UTC from StatusNet Android
                        1. @redenchilada The emphasis in that sentence was on the "you"

                          Thursday, 17-May-12 20:26:05 UTC from web
                    4. @redenchilada Day 2: minti

                      Thursday, 17-May-12 20:24:50 UTC from web
                  2. @bitshift Now I am picturing @greydragon412 as a mod. Why is all of RDn screaming and the RDn page is in flames...?

                    Thursday, 17-May-12 20:23:05 UTC from web
                2. @doates hmm. Not too sure how well that would work out. But, in any case, that would be a thing to talk to an admin about. Including the thing with chilada. Although it may be he was joking with you?

                  Thursday, 17-May-12 20:28:08 UTC from StatusNet iPhone
                  1. @renovatedkitchen fact: one of the admins did the joke ban this time, not me.

                    Thursday, 17-May-12 20:29:20 UTC from StatusNet Android
                    1. @redenchilada lol. Figured it was a joke ban. Read the history. Would it actually be possible to create a bot that bans on random? (with out banning me as a joke) :P

                      Thursday, 17-May-12 20:32:54 UTC from StatusNet iPhone
                      1. @renovatedkitchen Yes. It might have to read the raw HTML from user pages, but I'm certain it's possible.

                        Thursday, 17-May-12 20:34:53 UTC from StatusNet Android
                        1. @redenchilada hmm. Kinda neat. Although I'm not too sure how much people would like it :P

                          Thursday, 17-May-12 20:39:32 UTC from StatusNet iPhone
                          1. @renovatedkitchen Like I said, it's opt-in.

                            Thursday, 17-May-12 20:40:38 UTC from StatusNet Android
                            1. @redenchilada lol. So it's like a game of Russian roulette, RDN style?

                              Thursday, 17-May-12 20:47:38 UTC from StatusNet iPhone
                              1. @renovatedkitchen As in actually talking to other fans? Then pretty much.

                                Thursday, 17-May-12 20:48:56 UTC from web
                                1. @eaglehooves oh, I was referring to the opt-in auto banner :P

                                  Thursday, 17-May-12 20:53:45 UTC from StatusNet iPhone
                                  1. @renovatedkitchen That somehow got added into way the wrong conversation...

                                    Thursday, 17-May-12 20:54:32 UTC from web
                                    1. @eaglehooves lol. It's okay. ^_^

                                      Thursday, 17-May-12 20:55:14 UTC from StatusNet iPhone
            2. @doates Look, if you're taunting and egging on a mod, you have only yourself to blame for whatever happens to you. Besides, I didn't _actually_ ban you.

              Thursday, 17-May-12 20:24:52 UTC from StatusNet Android
              1. @redenchilada I know you didn't. ^_-

                Thursday, 17-May-12 20:25:29 UTC from web
                1. @ceruleanspark !moderatorpowertrip you say?

                  Thursday, 17-May-12 20:26:45 UTC from StatusNet Android
                  1. @redenchilada Add "adminpowertrip" as an alias. Then yes.

                    Thursday, 17-May-12 20:27:28 UTC from web
                    1. @ceruleanspark I used all the aliases for the group. I'll have to remove one. (Or possibly change all references of 'mod' to 'staff')

                      Thursday, 17-May-12 20:28:37 UTC from StatusNet Android
                      1. @redenchilada I wonder if I can break the alias limit from the database

                        Thursday, 17-May-12 20:29:06 UTC from web
                        1. @ceruleanspark What's that you say? "Add twenty different aliases to !modfight to cover all possible power abuse tags"?

                          Thursday, 17-May-12 20:30:53 UTC from StatusNet Android
                          1. @redenchilada Sounds about right.

                            Thursday, 17-May-12 20:31:19 UTC from web
                          2. @redenchilada I'll just alias every other group to modfight

                            Thursday, 17-May-12 20:31:31 UTC from web
                            1. @ceruleanspark delicious

                              Thursday, 17-May-12 20:31:52 UTC from StatusNet Android
                          3. @redenchilada What happens if two different groups share an alias?

                            Thursday, 17-May-12 20:31:48 UTC from web
                            1. @ceruleanspark I don't know! Let's do it to a couple of groups and see!

                              Thursday, 17-May-12 20:32:32 UTC from StatusNet Android
                            2. @ceruleanspark Status.net, in a shining moment of well-codedness, does not permit it. I know this because I had to wait several months for someone on identi.ca to respond to me and hand over an alias they weren't even using, that was a perfect fit for one of my groups.

                              Thursday, 17-May-12 20:33:33 UTC from web
                            3. @ceruleanspark On the other hand, if you add conflicting aliases via DB editing, I guess that would fall into the realm of undefined behaviour.

                              Thursday, 17-May-12 20:34:42 UTC from web
                              1. @bitshift Probably just destroy the universe

                                Thursday, 17-May-12 20:35:27 UTC from web
                  2. @redenchilada Somehow it doesn't surprise me that that's an alias for !modfight.

                    Thursday, 17-May-12 20:27:43 UTC from web
              2. @redenchilada Yeah, for like a minute, but still. I find getting banned funny for some sick, strange reason.

                Thursday, 17-May-12 20:26:02 UTC from web
    2. @greydragon412 Something Awful used to call it the "Hell ban"
