I'm going to start a countdown. 28.

@Tinkeringbell Countdown for what?

Days I have left in the current project team.

Will stopped leaving witty comments but a picture says it all

Well, that's not really well-mannered.

@Tinkeringbell I'll join your countdown for my project go-live as well.

@rene It's in workdays btw. It won't go down on weekends ;)

@Tinkeringbell that's what he is known for ...

@rene Ah. Well, you gotta have some trait that sets you apart, I guess...

@Tinkeringbell It does bring us on Jan, 1st, right?

@rene Nope. It stops at the end of week 51

As I have 52 off.

close enough ...

And (I hope) I am on the other team at the start of January

If not, I'm going to put in notice and look for another client/project.

Are you self-employed?

@Tinkeringbell yes

Oh no... way too much administrating

I work for a big company that has a load of clients and interesting projects to work on.

So if I'm not happy at one, I can always ask to be transferred to another.

Ah, yes

(It's encouraged, which is what I like about this company)

Doing so will also give my manager a bit of leverage in getting me back on the 'right' team.

As, as far as I'm aware, this client really want to keep me, but just didn't have the budget in one team, so now I'm working on the other. (big client ;) )

Inter company billing .... memories ....

Oh, it's wonderful. That reminds me I still need to write down some hour-administration in the client's tools.

I'm pretty good at always submitting the time-reports on Fridays for my company, but I always forget the ones on Monday for the client. (Stupid tool, won't let you book 'in advance', even if it's already Friday you can't book 8 hours for the whole day at 10 am)

@Tinkeringbell We once automated that, so our own timesheet always did match with that of the customer. When they found out we were told to stop doing that because they wanted mistakes in the invoices so they could postpone payment (or something like that)

o.0

Government ...

Wonderful.

At least they do want me to submit the right time-reports ;)

I'll keep the exact department a secret because it was OCenW ...

Ah.

They should've been more educated about that kinds of stuff :P

lol

@rene Will Won't stop

@rene same here. Huge payment delayed for 9 months. Being small company, it almost caused us to go bankrupt.

@ShadowWizard I think there's now rules over here that actually 'forbid' that

(It also may just be some fancy thing, all good intentions but no-one to enforce it)

Governments are never bound to their own rules.

They can simply make a new rule that adds an exception in case they want.

!!/blame

@ShadowWizard It's SmokeDetector's fault.

Out of context quote of the day:

> I want to install wine, but I'm having issues

Just drink!

Lool

Even better combined with:

> Done Building dependency tree

Now you have alcoholism ;)

Where are the quotes from? @Tink

@ShadowWizard newest meta question. I guess you'll be deleting that one soon.

@Shadow

@ShadowWizard

ping ping

morning

@publicstaticvoidmain Avoid that please!!! Such behavior already had been contributing to chase important users away from this room.

I trust ShadowWizard to use their pings concsiously.

@πάνταῥεῖ I have to say he's kinda misused his pings (he's triple pinged me) :)

@publicstaticvoidmain I mentioned I generally trust them.

@πάνταῥεῖ I'm just saying I'm not the only one that misuses my pings

@publicstaticvoidmain Well, there are differences padawan :P

Light sabers?

@πάνταῥεῖ okay, I'm still learning how to properly abuse my lightsaber :)

@publicstaticvoidmain Good luck with not cutting off your own limbs in 1st place :3 (I am just too lazy to translate that to yoda speech).

@πάνταῥεῖ Too late, I already cut my leg off

A leg you miss, though arms you still have.

Pun included!

Miss my leg I do, hmmmm

Let the lava flow, and they might give you a reconstruction :3

Ok, I have a question, hope somebody can help me here :(

@jo1storm o/

Ask

been part of scifi.stackexchange.com for over a year, since july 2017.

Nice more than a year

Now, my account there is temporary banned.

Didn't they tell you why exactly?

This account is temporarily suspended for plagiarism. The suspension period ends in 7 days.

Now, I investigated why.

A question I answered on july 23rd 2017

Was edited by moderator.

You plagiarized something?

Not really... I didn't know the proper rules

So I would post url and say

to quote: " quote here"

then add a paragraph

After 3 or 4 replies

People told me that the proper etiquette is to use [quote] tags

So I did. Religiously.

Well, not knowing the proper rules won't prevent you from the law being applied? Just like with any legal system?

Anyway, a moderator found my posts from more than a year ago. I forgot about them.

I would have edited them myself if I knew.

My question is, how do I appeal that decision?

Too late though. I'd not worry with short ban like that.

To be honest, it was never my intention to plagiarize. I would post a link, mark quotes from it, then post a paragraph of my own.

The issue is that I didn't use [quote] tags.

@πάνταῥεῖ I hereby allow @publicstaticvoidmain to ping me any time he wants. This permission does not apply to other users though. /cc @pub ;)

@jo1storm Hard to judge without the concrete example what you did there.

@Quill surely you mean night, right? ;)

@ShadowWizard You probably noted that I didn't ping you regarding that discussion yet ;)

@πάνταῥεῖ Too bad! I love pingz! :)

@Shadow Can you please resolve this rollback war?

I don't have the impression you're a lonely person who needs this kind of attention @Shadow :3

I mean, if I wanted to plagiarize, I wouldn't post a link towards article I am plagiarizing. And say I am quoting it.

@πάνταῥεῖ but I am... ;-)

@Shadow OK, here you go: Take these as a number of hugs

@ShadowWizard :3

@ShadowWizard 2 :3

@ShadowWizard 3 :3

@ShadowWizard 4 :3

And the "funniest" thing is, those are all my replies from July 2017.

@jo1storm You probably shouldn't bother about that so much.

Just sit this out and don't do it again.

When I didn't know the proper etiquette... I mean, I understand punishment. You use punishment to change someone's behavior. But if you punish someone who already is not behaving that way...

@public please stop editing this question. Leave that space alone... If you really think you are correct and the post must be edited start a new meta discussion about it and wait for more feedback. Thanks.

@SonictheAnonymousHedgehog ^

@ShadowWizard I already suspected so :P

@πάνταῥεῖ Thanks!

@πάνταῥεῖ thanks!

@πάνταῥεῖ thank you!

Well, I know my Pappenheimer's :3

I feel like a punk who was sent in front of judge for breaking windows and the judge said "I am letting you off with a warning here. Misbehave again, break another window and you're going to prison." and I was a model citizen after that.

Pap what?

Then, 10 years later, I am sent to prison for breaking a window 10 years ago.

And I am already married with children. My kids will grow up without father now.

@jo1storm Sounds unfair, but you should really tell all of this to the moderator who suspended you by replying to the private mod message you got.

@ShadowWizard Well, broader story. "Ich kenne meine Pappenheimer" is a German saying, which probably boils down to "I know the usual suspects".

Lol

Why is there an edit war about a space between Community and ♦️?

@Catija because both sides insist on their own and won't let it go.

I was part of such wars in the past.

@Shadow One of my actor colleagues used to wear this great T:

(not proud of that)

@Shadow okay, you can ping me too

@Shadow

@publicstaticvoidmain FP :-/

@publicstaticvoidmain no worry you already won "Lifetime Pings from @Shadow" award. :P

@πάνταῥεῖ he isn't a bot! I think.... ;)

@publicstaticvoidmain The second leg gone. Aware of the head at least you should be. :3

@ShadowWizard A padawan as mentioned :P

Your point missing I am, afraid.

Just mispinged, no worries :P

@ShadowWizard I just did. I didn't even see that message. I just checked, all the answers moderators edited are from june and July of 2017.

@jo1 so you replied to the mod message?

Oh lol! Same time!

@jo1storm cheers! And now we wait. :)

I hope everything will go well. It was like: remember that prank you did to your school teacher 30 years ago? Well, if you had done it today, it would have been a felony! You're a criminal! Two months prison time.

But I was a kid and it wasn't felony then, only misdemeanor.

Prison time for you!

@jo1storm Could happen if not outdated by law, yes.

Not really, no. Else you could persecute someone for drinking alcohol before Prohibition when it wasn't forbidden before and was perfectly legal. Laws can't be used retroactively. Break that rule... Well, Henry VIII executed Miss Howard by using that.

He literally created a law making it illegal to be engaged to someone else, break the engagement and not tell the king before marriage to him.Which was legal when Kathryn Howard married him..

@AdamLear Out of curiosity, why also lock the answer? There was no rollback warring there.

@ShadowWizard Won't that be "Your point missing, afraid am I." in yoda speech?

@SonictheAnonymousHedgehog Y'all were going back and forth on edits to the question without editing the answer to match, and I didn't want to risk moving the edit war to the answer after locking the question.

@AdamLear When did you set the lock to expire, or is it indefinite?

@πάνταῥεῖ It's as if I saw you wearing a red shirt yesterday and today created a rule forbidding wearing of red shirts then fined you for wearing a red shirt yesterday, when the rule didn't exist.

@SonictheAnonymousHedgehog It'll expire, but I hope I won't see another edit war starting up right after over something so inconsequential.

@jo1storm Well, the GESTAPO recorded all things even before the NAZI party took over this (my) country. Just don't wear red T-shirts with a Che-Guevara stencil printed on them. :3
