@Rob well since you're lurking here, we can discuss stuff that doesn't fit the Tavern in here... To a limit. :)

@ShadowWizardWearingMask That would probably be best, I got kicked from chat so I checked if it was working here - no. Yet it worked everywhere else, on this server and the other two. Feeds took credit for the kick, so I banned for life the Feed user and the only other person who came forth (he's received three warnings to read his own messages and not snoop on conversation not directed to him - if you walked up to people IRL and did that ...). So they sit with Sonic. --- No more ramblings from ill health ppl.

random ping for @Nord

@Rob sorry, I didn't understand what you mean this time... :/

Heading back to the tavern.

You got chat banned? Where?

The Tavern.

Wasn't for long.

RO kick is just for one minute, yeah.

And it's not cross-room.

1:23 PM

Yup. See You there, but in 1/2 hour.

That long?? hmm... weird. Still, what I said above still apply - think it's safer to discuss things here rather than in the Tavern.

@Sha, is your question a duplicate: meta.stackexchange.com/q/347736/282094 or meta.stackexchange.com/questions/100318/… ?

There was also another similar one, I lost track of - kinda doing something else.

@Rob nope, neither of those.

It's issue with two different kinds of chat ban that stack, but reason isn't updated properly.

First chat ban is inherited from parent site suspension, and second is chat only ban as result from flags, or manual mod ban.

The second ban will update the reason in the profile banner, but after that second ban period is over, the reason will still stay, instead of getting back to the first reason.

@ShadowWizardWearingMask OK, that's why I asked privately; rather than cluttering up your well received question (and jinxing it) :)

Q: How can I configure the feed reader in my chat room?

@Rob all good, thanks! :)

I suspect most votes came from Tavern, lol

Otherwise it would have been at +3 or so.

Chat tag usually get low traffic on MSE

Random example...

How can I setup the feed reader in my chatroom to have a name, picture, and description?

10 years, 105 views.

@ShadowWizardWearingMask For example, this very smart fellow who argued and got chat banned for years, has nothing in his profile: chat.meta.stackexchange.com/users/193650/forest - your welcome to delete that after reading (but it's fairly well known).

I don't see where the reason that you say you see appears.

4:37 PM

@Rob huh, that's weird. Looks like chat profile was nuked, and only a zombie stay behind.

Let's see her main profile...

As I thought, the main profile itself is deleted, so the chat profile is just... a shell?

shadow@chat:~$

@Rob it was discussed in Tavern, here is the user that "sparked" it all: chat.stackexchange.com/users/11810/amwhy

But there would be a message there, as opposed to one remaining after the fact. BTW: They are quite high rep on security.stackexchange.com

@ZoeTheLockdownPrincess hello to you too! :D

4:41 PM

I can clearly see that message.

@Rob no, the chat profile should not exist. Ideally, when a profile is deleted on a main site, the chat profile should also be deleted. But that's just not the case.

Anything can happen to the chat profile, usually it just stay intact.

It's so buggy that the developers don't dare touch it.

But none for the other ... Guess that's a different bug. :D

technastic_tc

Hey guys! If somebody could start a bounty on my question (meta.stackexchange.com/q/353961/846219) it would be great.

@Rob the one with wrong ban reason? Yeah, totally different case. :)

Might implode or explode, they just don't know!

4:44 PM

@technastic_tc you can start one yourself, you have enough rep. :)

Amount is not relevant, 50 is as good as 500.

Also, welcome to the Den, @tech :)

I kinda like 500 better.

This isn't the official chat room of Meta, @tech - the official chat room is the Tavern.

technastic_tc

@ShadowWizardWearingMask ok fine!

Tavern on the Meta

MY GOD, IT'S FULL OF STARS AND BACKLOG! General friendly chit-...

But we do have here bunch of nice people, like @Rob and @Zoe. ;)

technastic_tc

ok thanks!

4:45 PM

@Rob nah, 500 just clutter their logs

I had cases of error logs causing 100gb disk to get full.

I some times bite though :P

Once I won a couple of hundred and the person said that they were so happy that they'd give me 500 more - only happens once in a lifetime, I guess.

@ShadowWizardWearingMask I filled that bug, 'write to disk shouldn't use up so much space that when the OS crashes it has no room to write to it's error log'.

@ZoeTheLockdownPrincess your bites are better than Bart's beatings! :D

@Rob oh wow, won this where? How?

Stats.SE

stats.stackexchange.com/users/197829/rob?tab=bounties

They are not cheap with bounties over there. $$$$ is sometimes involved.

Unlike SO, where they must not have the incentive to offer huge bounties, just to ask the questions with few upvotes.

@Rob nice

@Sha, no one looks like you:

Love da grillz too!

Nordine Lotfi

@Rob grillz = gorillaz?

Grill (jewelry)

In hip hop culture, a grill (most commonly referred to as grills or grillz), also known as fronts or golds, is a type of dental jewelry worn over the teeth. Grills are made of metal and are generally removable. They began to be worn by hip-hop artists in New York City in the early 1980s, and upgraded during the '90s in Oakland. They became even more widely popular during the mid-2000s due to the rise of Southern hip hop rap and the more mainstream pop culture status hip hop attained. == Characteristics and wearer demographics == Grills are made of several types of metal (often silver, gold or...

@Rob so if you were to eat steak with those on, it wouldn't be incorrect to say "put it on the grill"
