Is there a way to see all the chat rooms that I've created? Doing All Rooms > created didn't do that

@Feeds let's talk about our favorite oneboxes
A onebox should feel like, well, a onebox
 
What we need is “a blazingly fast, Web-based onebox reimagined from the ground up to work like a modern onebox.”
 
@JourneymanGeek Should it also be able to hold polls?
 
Only if it has a blue tick? :D
 
And if we can ban the CEO ofcourse
 
7:03 AM
So, ChatGPT won. It can spread its automated non intelligent crap in all sites except SO.
No surprise, SE never really cared for the sites, only for SO.
 
eh
@ShadowWizardChasingStars there's 3 issues
 
no eh, sadly. That's how it is.
 
1) its not always obvious
 
No policy means anyone is free to post ChatGPT crap and if it's deleted cry out loud "Hey, but it's not banned!" and be correct about it.
 
2) there's not really any consensus on what to do
3) SE's semi holidays right now?
@ShadowWizardChasingStars well - I'm all for suspending everyone who does till the cows come home.
but then what?
 
7:05 AM
@JourneymanGeek how is it related? The "Ban ChatGPT network wide" is officially declined.
 
and the community team can't exactly help all 100+ sites directly, even if we don't have the same level of issues SO seems to have
 
With official response saying "We don't care for the rest of the network, only SO".
 
ah
Actually no
> While we evaluate, we hope that folks on network sites feel comfortable establishing per-site policies responsive to their communities’ needs.
 
@JourneymanGeek it's not the CM team, it's the management that don't want to have clear policy against that crap, god knows why.
 
@ShadowWizardChasingStars the policy seems to be "y'all decide, and we'll provide help if its needed"
 
7:07 AM
Probably scared those who love chatGPT will go away and they'll lose precious views?
 
and I've been talking to/listening in to other mods
ehhhhh
The people who speak 'for' it are not the problem
 
@JourneymanGeek umm, no? They decided to not have any policy.
 
Well no - the policy is that sites work it out
and As someone who's a mod on a very large site, meta and a small one...
its totally not the same ._.
 
@JourneymanGeek like I said, they let the sites be hit by a running bus.
If the bus is big enough they might come later and serve first aid, but that's about it. lol
 
Well - we're still the first line of handling these things
 
7:10 AM
Instead of a simple policy banning this crap to begin with.
 
points at the very heavy book
@ShadowWizardChasingStars Well - there's vaguely a policy in place.
So - the question is really what's proportionate?
I think SO's doing a week.
I'm basically "Lets throw a very heavy book at them" and doing a year on meta
Should we spam or nonsense delete accounts?
Practically - I think the 'its not ok' ness is agreed on
just that SE's not setting a guideline to 'how' to handle it for now
 
I don't understand what you mean, but anyway the steam is out. :D
Time to...
 
stream?
@ShadowWizardChasingStars basically a policy is "this is what we want you to do" - and the policy isn't no policy its "y'all do what you feel its right"
 
@g3rv4 oh, I see. So it's really lucky you are diagnosed! :)
 
@JourneymanGeek twitch?
 
7:17 AM
@JourneymanGeek ping back
 
@ShadowWizardChasingStars ping back
 
@JourneymanGeek and thousands of people think in all honesty it's totally right to post AI generated answers, that's the whole &##%# point. lol
 
@ShadowWizardChasingStars I don't think its thousands
 
So "do what you feel right" is so useless that it makes me laugh.
 
maybe a few dozen particularly annoying ones
 
7:19 AM
@JourneymanGeek oh, I'm sure it's even more, used the low limit.
 
@ShadowWizardChasingStars Well - it does mean I'm free to hand out annual tickets to suspensionville
 
@JourneymanGeek sounds like a fun train to ride
 
Its more of a long drop into a dark hole.
 
@cocomac the "created" in the all rooms page is just for sorting the list.
 
@ShadowWizardChasingStars meta.stackexchange.com/questions/384922/… it feels like there's a lot of folks working out what feels right for them
 
7:22 AM
meh, without clear policy, it's all in vain.
 
@ShadowWizardChasingStars mods can wield the ban hammer all they want
 
Like policemen enforcing non existing laws.
 
@ShadowWizardChasingStars most fail attribution, so you can nuke them for plagiarism
 
@ShadowWizardChasingStars Actually
I am the law.
 
@cocomac the cloest thing you can get is in your chat profile, under "Owner of these rooms". This will also show rooms you didn't create where you were assigned as RO, but there's no better way afaik.
@Luuklag no attribution is possible when AI making a salad from millions of different sources.
 
7:26 AM
@ShadowWizardChasingStars But we don't know that
and as such its unattributed
 
@JourneymanGeek it's just a judge
With funny hat
He should join winter bash.
 
8:11 AM
@JourneymanGeek hi the law
 
Arn't you a little young for dad jokes?
 
@JourneymanGeek Minimum age here is 13, everyone is old enough for dad jokes.
 
 
1 hour later…
9:31 AM
@Tinkeringbell well it's technically possible to be a dad at 13.
 
9:43 AM
cursed plush of the day.
@SonictheAnonymousHedgehog ^
 
10:18 AM
@SPArcheon not sure he's a plush person, think he prefers the real thing. :D
 
@ShadowWizardChasingStars I suspect you didn't realize, right?
 
@SPArcheon It's so fluffy I'm gonna die >:D
@JourneymanGeek ... yes ':)
 
@starball That's not fluffy
You are going to die tho
Eventually
 
@JourneymanGeek true, fluffy has three heads, not one.
@SPArcheon I don't know what I didn't realize, so guess you're correct.
@SPA also, this is 10 years old, you celebrate its anniversary? ;)
 
10:35 AM
@ShadowWizardChasingStars this what?
 
@SPArcheon plush
 
just something I found randomly after finding this one.
 
Random indeed. ;)
 
10:52 AM
@SPArcheon madoka?
 
@starball obviously.
 
not to me xD
 
btw, that is a single plush, not two.
 
and by that I mean that they can not be taken apart.
they are sewed together.
 
10:54 AM
@SPArcheon loool
I have not watched that anime though (just skimmed the wikipedia a few years ago) so if that's a reference to something, I don't get it.
 
@ShadowWizardChasingStars Congrats. A single post to get on TWO different enemy lists. Mine and Memor-x
 
@ShadowWizardChasingStars LMAO
 
oh noooooo. the sad, gory children anime DDDDDD:
it scarred me
I'll listen tomorrow. I gotta go to bed now. I've heard really good things about the music, but I've mostly forgotten it due to the mental scarring (I can't do gory / scary / intense things)
 
11:03 AM
@starball emotional trauma - the anime.
 
@starball you're too delicate. ;)
@SPArcheon thanks! I guess? :D
 
@ShadowWizardChasingStars go ahead, be my guest. Don't say you weren't warned afterward.
I think you can see the similarities
 
11:48 AM
@ShadowWizardChasingStars That's exactly what I said.
/meant
 
@SPArcheon too small, can't see what it is.
@Tinkeringbell yup, repeating a parrot can be funny. :D
 
12:09 PM
New record? Smokey messages not moved to Chimney for four days. :D
 
106 messages moved to Chimney
hm
My move script seems borked?
 
12:34 PM
@JourneymanGeek what's the error? They probably changed the chat JS and CSS for winter bash, so broke something essential for the script.
 
Its just not working lol
Its ok - I'll find a PC without it and do it manually
no wait
IT IS WIERDER
 
@JourneymanGeek yeah, it worked, but we had to reload to see it.
 
yup
So I am seeing it work on one page, and not work on the other
 
Maybe that's by design, when there are so many moved messages.
 
Well no
cause its one message
UNLESS
but I am now very confused
 
12:36 PM
No, you moved 106 messages, not one.
25 mins ago, by Journeyman Geek
106 messages moved to Chimney
 
anyway, cleared now
 
Can also screenshot if you prefer?
 
Oh
I am looking at one browser instance on a remote PC that's correct
and one on this PC that's wrong
MADNESS
 
12:55 PM
@JourneymanGeek even after reload? I didn't see you moved messages too, until reloading by chance.
(to see hats)
 
Yeah, it was ok after reloading
but also I needed to know I wasn't going mad.
Well madder
 
@JourneymanGeek too late
 
@SPArcheon hmm, we have a Carrol here.
 
@ShadowWizardChasingStars I am partial to Alice and this is a known fact.
 
1:04 PM
Alice is one of the most used names, they even put her in chains.
At least she has Bob to come for the rescue.
 
1:21 PM
idiocy of the day.
Some years ago, Microsoft was sued for antitrust rules violation because they bundled a browser in the OS.
Today, if you search for "chrome" on their search engine you get a notice that tells you that "you don't have to download a different browser", and almost implies it is not safe to do it.
And apparently, this is totally legal.
 
@SPArcheon correct.
What's much more annoying is that Google doing the same with android, having Chrome only by default, and nobody even thinking to sue them.
Why? Because it's not Microsoft.
I'm not M$ fan, far from it, but that's just not fair and annoying in general.
eating cupcake
 
2:15 PM
@ShadowWizardChasingStars Maybe it's because Chrome is at least bearable for most people
 
2:41 PM
@Spevacus sure, but still, not fair. :D
 
:D
 
2:55 PM
Someone made me realize...

A: What are the fantasy secret hats you'd wish to get?

SPArcheonSomebody HAD to do this. IT'S OVER NINE THOUSANDDDDD! (Vegeta hairs + Scouter Hat) View the profile page of at least 10 different users whose reputation exceed 9k points. and also: Super Sayajin You are Jon Skeet NOTE: The "scouter hat" idea (minus the Vegeta's hairs) was used in the 2015 Win...

do I get something for foreseeing both variants years before they were used? :P
Need some close votes for historical reasons. Be quick, maybe it will get you an hat.

Q: The Rescue of The Winter Unicorn Of The Bash

SPArcheonOne year had passed since their last meeting and the yellow pony was waiting near the pool for the unicorn to appear again. Long they waited, playing with the snow on-off switch. Winter, Summer, Hot, Cold, Ice, Water... Seconds become minutes and minutes became hours. But the unicorn didn't come ...

 
3:47 PM
@Rob I think you got the year wrong...
 
Greetings from France!
 
Sonic the World-Travelling Hedgehog
 
4:14 PM
@Spevacus Hopefully they went there on a cruise ship like Dora did...
1 more vote missing...
 
 
4 hours later…
8:35 PM
@ShadowWizardChasingStars I guess so :P
@SPArcheon D: I never made that connection. Also, I just remembered that I don't know the anime's music because I only watched a few episodes of the 2nd season and then went to read the whole manga- that's what scarred me.
 
 
2 hours later…
10:09 PM
okay embarassing TIL: recently I learned that "song" is not interchangeable with "music". From now on I'll be doing "music-exchange" instead of "song-exchange".
