Tavern on the Meta

Judging by the quality of his posts @Undo, I doubt what the quality of the prank call would be

Jan Dvorak

Aargh.... I really should go see that newest Disney musical just to really enjoy the references...

Hmm, Shog didn't give permission :(

Will revert back to my original image

...or to something else...

Conclusion of my experiment: Shog's profile image distracts users, even though he thinks it doesn't

@babaji, aren't you messing up the google search reasult for those users who are looking for babaji?

5:50 PM

@SmokeDetector fpu

SmokeDetector

@Undo Registered as false positive, added title to Bayesian doctype 'good', whitelisted user.

user259867

Argh, I thought bob was already whitelisted. I specifically answered & edited his question to see if whitelisting works.

It might have a problem with the hourly reset

If they google for him, your high quality math posts will show up and scare them...maths scares most people in general...

user259867

No, I think the reason is that nobody fpu'd the earlier appearance of bob on math.SE

5:54 PM

Or maybe it's just my personal prefs due to which google is showing me maths.se posts...hmm...

Got it, I will stop my soliloquy now

@babaji, on how many of your profiles are you using this name?

user259867

This one: on all of them. Don't worry, about to change to something else.

Good, else some users are going to report your profile for sure

user259867

Now that the account deletions are so easy, and creating an account gives a free pass on network-wide username change... I wonder why would anyone have the same username for two days in a row.

Mainly because we want to be recognized

Yes that^, this becomes an alternate identity and a habit. I identify with Inf and Undo identifies with his name

Oct 26 at 12:05, by Bart

Wait ... so your name is not Infinite Recursion? .... my whole life is a lie ...

^see, how devastated

6:08 PM

Hiya

Hiya

Quick question: Is usage of Shog's image distracting you ?

I see a duck

^

^

^ I reloaded, am normal again :)

6:13 PM

"normal"? And here I am thinking it wasn't possible...

Why?

Jan is borked, and Bart is away, everything else is normal, isn't it?

2

... someone borked Jan?

Oh, I didn't notice. I guess so.

This sounds like a crisis

@Undo <music> Who ya gonna call? Spam busters! </music>

6:16 PM

Yeah, he is strange nowadays, asks a lot of questions about himself...on a self-evaluation mode

He is a person, not just a spam buster anymore

@Jan, any questions...feel free to ask! Sam and Undo are here to answer :)

But we can't answer any of your "self-evaluation" questions though. ;)

They are pretty simple questions...like do you like me? Why? Should I try harder? Am I not comical when I am angry etc

You guys can answer them very easily :)

I think Jan needs a holiday.

.... not borked?

... who knows?

6:34 PM

... hmm

... notices the train

... if any of you answer him, it may help him. I can't answer, because of reasons, but any of you can tell him your opinions and complete the self-evaluation

... Ok, just as long as he doesn't send me spam emails asking me to fill out a "Jan survey".

... Spam him back with Sam, Pham and Gham surveys

... Alright lol.

6:41 PM

… Lol?!

... @Jan, are you here?

... "seen 32s ago"...

that just means the browser is open to this page

So he's still kinda-ish here.

or it means he got kidnapped and the kidnapper didn't bother to close this tab.

Which you can't blame them for. Kidnapping is a stressful occupation

6:46 PM

o/

\o

@Undo I guess you've had some experience :P

The best solution to curiosity is to ask and get answers... so poke @Jan to ask away

welcome @Pham!

Hiya

No wonder we don't see any spam on SR

even baba stays away from SR

6:49 PM

@justabrickinthewall nope

>>status

Current status: Beta.

anyway babaji discussion is also a spam

smokey is also active

Try pinging @babaji and see the magic @TGMCians

ah nah i don't want to see black magic

:)

6:54 PM

You will be surprised, try it

ping @babaji

#nomagic

#lier :p

Conclusions: Jan has been kidnapped, or is shy, or angry, or didn't read the SE be nice policy!

oh i also didn't see him here

why ?

#checkthebabajiautofillpopup

Babaji has finally put his numerical skills to good use and become a high rep user on maths.SE

no one knows why, he is missing :(

hey frank

@Frank Back welcome.

@bjb568 There's some in the lobby at my apartment. And a pile of candy. Me eat! Is yum!

@bjb568 Cranberry sprite? Yuck!

7:11 PM

@Frank It's good when mixed with lemonade.

Then again, you're a tree…

@bjb568 Yuck! I thought you were a cat!

@Frank Sorta.

Cats hate cranberry sprite and lemonade! And candy...

A very old cat, it's taste buds are hardly active...

Oh yeah, he's 94.

7:12 PM

*A very old cat wearing a bra...

Because I'm a genetically modified and electronically enhanced kitten, I go thru time at varying speeds.

7:27 PM

tell them the tavern spoiled you ;P

@justabrickinthewall Haha. I could crumble you with my root system now that you're a brick...

Nice @Frank :)

@InfiniteRecursion What? crumbling bricks is nice? Ok... That's new.

Frank was a green tree with his real before he entered the tavern, now look what we did to him :D

he got a gold badge on a 3 year old post...all golden

@InfiniteRecursion That's not evil.

7:31 PM

no @Frank, I meant your cv-pls flagging is nice

@InfiniteRecursion /me is getting old :D

Yes, it's not evil, it's tavern effect

:D

Use underscore for italics

Underscore/me is a duckUnderscore

@InfiniteRecursion Flags aren't very effective, I just want to get a Marshal badge, while still at 101 rep. :)

Like jan has one on drupal

@InfiniteRecursion Ha! Jan on drupal... I wonder why that site gets so much spam.

7:36 PM

It gets longer life span...have seen spam hang on for more than 3 hours there, that's hardly possible on other sites

@InfiniteRecursion asterisks work too.

Ok

@InfiniteRecursion I always use * (and so does Pham) ;)

@Inf we're the same color...

That's weird.

Yes @Frank :)

7:39 PM

@InfiniteRecursion Was that... your plan?

not at all

yellow.

I saw just now....after you said it

@InfiniteRecursion Good.

crazy users.

Someone deleted the post @Frank, Shog wrote on a MSO post that his profile image doesn't distract users, so I kept it for a few minutes and checked, everyone was distracted

Seth was surprised when he saw Shog's image say Yay!!

@InfiniteRecursion Haha!

To be fair, I do say "yay" a lot. Just not to Seth.

@Unihedron huh wha?

bai

@InfiniteRecursion funny.

@InfiniteRecursion yes, always say bai when bjb shows up. It's a good habit to get into. :P

:D

cats can climb trees, so be careful

@InfiniteRecursion Not him... he can't see where he's going anymore.

From being 94, and wearing sunglasses.

He's as blind as a bat.

A cat on the keyboard is more dangerous

@InfiniteRecursion ...but he won't climb me. :D

7:59 PM

He will type gibberish in chat

@InfiniteRecursion He already does.

@bjb568 If I had a static footer, I would have to create a header. If the header was static, the user would still have to scroll around to navigate.

:eek:

I don't want to go in that room because it appears I am the wrong age and in the wrong field. :P

@Frank Good for you. Hopefully you shall never have to face the horrors that lie in that room.

@Frank The guy isn't that old ;)

Okay

@Sam Whaa? 85 if he's a day!

I am innocent, I don't know why no one stars @hichris123's messages

@InfiniteRecursion I can do a count, and prove that wrong...

@InfiniteRecursion I have 6 pages of starred messages. ;P
