joeking27 Posted November 1, 2005 Report Share Posted November 1, 2005 After a few quite amusing things in IRC, I wonder if there could be a database of sorts, where we can add amusing or embarrassing quotes from the chatroom? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ghost_Rider Posted November 1, 2005 Report Share Posted November 1, 2005 Why not just start an off-topic thread? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
joeking27 Posted November 1, 2005 Author Report Share Posted November 1, 2005 It would get spammed to death by idiots going roffle and lol, besides, IRC types are much more subtle than that. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sledge Posted November 1, 2005 Report Share Posted November 1, 2005 Also, no offence to those who do use IRC, but I don't. Nor do a lot of people. Would a thread really serve that much purpose? For that matter, how long before it gets bombarded with a lot of spam from everyone else anyway? Does Arnie actually host IRC, or is it someone else? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Hissing_Sid Posted November 1, 2005 Report Share Posted November 1, 2005 Surely a thread (in off-topic) where anybody that interested could post snippets would suffice? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sledge Posted November 1, 2005 Report Share Posted November 1, 2005 Dunno, everytime someone starts a thread based on an MSN convo, they get flamed ("ZOMFG!!! This is only interesting to the people who were in the convo!!!"). Can't see why this should be any different. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

joeking27 Posted November 2, 2005 Author Report Share Posted November 2, 2005 Exactly why it shouldn't be a thread it the forums, as essentially it would be inflicting it on the rest of you. Something a less in the centre of attention would be much better. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Can't see why this should be any different. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> It'd be different because IRC is publically available, as opposed to a private MSN convo Exactly why it shouldn't be a thread it the forums, as essentially it would be inflicting it on the rest of you.

Gene Posted November 2, 2005 Report Share Posted November 2, 2005 Drew, we've already discussed this over PM's, I don't think it's necessary to extend it beyond that. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Arnie Posted November 2, 2005 Report Share Posted November 2, 2005 Quotes would mean logging the irc system or having a setup that allowed user submissions of quotes. I don't think it'd achieve much that's constructive really. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Samm Posted November 2, 2005 Report Share Posted November 2, 2005 (edited) Isn't there some software out there that logs this kind of stuff onto one handly HTML page? You know they do stuff like: Cazboab is a very aggressive person, he has been mean to 174 people this week Cazboab kicks Samm in the shins. Edit: Aha! Such as this: http://www.afsmg.co.uk/stats/ Found via Jow... Edited November 2, 2005 by Samm Quote Link to post Share on other sites
