Gotta admit, you seem to be right about derpsichord, though.  But Requia isn't much higher up the food chain.

Through me the way to the city of woe, Through me the way to everlasting pain, Through me the way among the lost.
Justice moved my maker on high.
Divine power made me, Wisdom supreme, and Primal love.
Before me nothing was but things eternal, and eternal I endure.
Abandon all hope, you who enter here.

There was a reason for this, of course.

Naw.  I wouldn't give the unethical fucktard the satisfaction.

There probably should be some limitations on the amount of Mods on IRC at a certain time

There are only two right now I think.  At least, MS and Eve haven't said anything.  So I assume its me and maybe Fred.

Seems reasonable.
Are there any set rules for IRC?

wait what?
so mods have to coordinate what times we can be on with each other? PFFFT :\

we are distributed across several time zones already theres not much more we can do about that

Looks like IRC mods maybe should be more selected not to ban for reasons of personal conflict.

There are actually very few rules in IRC as regards the OPS and H-OPS, now anyway.

Used to be everyone was OPped, as standard. Kicking and banning was not allowed then due to the hideous possibilities ( :lulz: ). Recently, MS made the decision to limit the amount of OPs (I can't remember why exactly). Fred and myself remained as OPs largely cause we've been in IRC for a long assed time, since the Chat Solutions days with Cyberus in fact. Eve is MS's 2nd in command or some shit, cause the Maddshark guys like her or something I dunno. And the Half-Ops were, I believe, supposed to rotate on a regular basis.

I don't ban anyone except for spamming (like actual spam, not setting off someone's name-bleep which I incidentally have turned off), or for persistent chat-fail (wade, daruko or StStephen style, over weeks or months). I'll also put in a 10-minute ban if one of the permanent lurkers (I hate those fuckers) is having connection problems but also has auto-join turned on. Sometimes I'll look at chat and the ONLY thing that has happened in the last half hour is John Blaze has left and rejoined 10 times.

I do kick people, occasionally for fatuous reasons, but only when I reckon that person will "get it". Like kicking Pixie a second time for the FacebookForHerCat thing. I try to at least make the kicking thing funny and to think about whether the kicked will see it as such.

The only other time I kick is when someone is doing it wade, daruko or StStephen style and someone requests I kick them to get chat going again.

Fuck coordinating when the OPs are on and how many, fuck making a bunch of rules for #Discord, and to fuck with banning someone from the channel for doing something that irritates you alone.
