@doates what did you do?
-
@renovatedkitchen Made @redenchilada ban me for no reason.
-
@doates :(. That's not too nice.
-
@renovatedkitchen of coarse it;s not nice. He is misusing his power.
-
@doates I'm sorry to hear :(. Have you asked him why he did? Maybe it was by accident?
-
@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.
-
@bitshift day 1: carcino
-
@bitshift Now I am picturing @greydragon412 as a mod. Why is all of RDn screaming and the RDn page is in flames...?
RDN's Lucifer likes this. -
@redenchilada You could have the roulette bot pick them! :)
-
@redenchilada Day one: Abigpony. Y'know. Since he's so much smarter and better at moderation than everyone else on staff
-
@redenchilada Day 2: minti
-
@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.
-
@redenchilada I know you didn't. ^_-
-
@ceruleanspark yes this is true
-
@redenchilada Yeah, for like a minute, but still. I find getting banned funny for some sick, strange reason.
-
@redenchilada The emphasis in that sentence was on the "you"
-
@ceruleanspark !moderatorpowertrip you say?
-
@redenchilada Add "adminpowertrip" as an alias. Then yes.
-
@redenchilada Somehow it doesn't surprise me that that's an alias for !modfight.
-
@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?
-
@ceruleanspark I used all the aliases for the group. I'll have to remove one. (Or possibly change all references of 'mod' to 'staff')
-
@redenchilada I wonder if I can break the alias limit from the database
-
@renovatedkitchen fact: one of the admins did the joke ban this time, not me.
-
@ceruleanspark What's that you say? "Add twenty different aliases to !modfight to cover all possible power abuse tags"?
-
@redenchilada Sounds about right.
-
@redenchilada I'll just alias every other group to modfight
-
@redenchilada What happens if two different groups share an alias?
-
@greydragon412 Something Awful used to call it the "Hell ban"
-
@ceruleanspark I don't know! Let's do it to a couple of groups and see!
-
@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
-
@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.
-
@ceruleanspark On the other hand, if you add conflicting aliases via DB editing, I guess that would fall into the realm of undefined behaviour.
-
@renovatedkitchen Yes. It might have to read the raw HTML from user pages, but I'm certain it's possible.
-
@bitshift Probably just destroy the universe
-
@redenchilada hmm. Kinda neat. Although I'm not too sure how much people would like it :P
-
@renovatedkitchen Like I said, it's opt-in.
-
@redenchilada lol. So it's like a game of Russian roulette, RDN style?
-
@renovatedkitchen As in actually talking to other fans? Then pretty much.
-
@eaglehooves oh, I was referring to the opt-in auto banner :P
-
@renovatedkitchen That somehow got added into way the wrong conversation...
-
@eaglehooves lol. It's okay. ^_^
