I just got banned from IRC for doing an inbuilt god-IRC thing that made
"fiftkyhenry streaks across channel naked. I have run across 4 channels naked!"
appear. I mean come on, this is quite obviously a harmless, victimless joke. How on earth does it warrant a channel ban?
I have always been a big support of the MsgPlus community and Patchou, but now I am starting to have doubts. Before long there won't be anyone left in your IRC channel unless you get some less hardline admins.
Do you have a sense of humour?

#MsgPlus is a support channel. That means that we are there for support. We are not there for humour or idle chit-chat.
If you wish to use some crappy script then go ahead, but don't use it anywhere near #msgplus or you will be kicked/banned depending on the ops' current opinion of you.
If you only wish for humour/chat/whatever then you don't even need to join #msgplus. #Banana is our chat room. Join that instead.
Anyway, bans are removed after a few hours so stop your whining.

Of course the happenings in #msgplus do not in any way reflect Patchou or his software, so you being banned from #msgplus for rule breaking should not affect your view of Patchou's software. If it does then you need to re-think a few things.

Yeh ok you win, I just thought the MsgPlus community was more friendly 
It doesn't affect my view of the software.
RE: IRC by CookieRevised on 10-16-2004 at 03:27 PM
It is friendly... But since it is a very large community there have to be some rules. Breaking rules means "punishment"...
Friendlyness and allowing spam/annoying things/etc don't have anything todo with eachother though...

Yeh I misenterpreted anyway, i thought that #MsgPlus was just a general Messenger plus! room not just a support one.

As far too many do. I shall have to have words with MenthiX about that..
