@JamesENL morning

We just started a new sprint and I have already finished all except one of my assigned tasks

tchrist

@Quill That would be KICK THE BRITS DAY in these parts. You should try it some time.

JamesENL

@bjb568 Khajiit has warez for you

bjb568

What's that?

JamesENL

1:45 AM

You've never played Skyrim have you

Or any of the elder scrolls games

bjb568

Nope.

JamesENL

Khajiit is a race of cat-people who act like black market item dealers

It's almost roleplaying for furries now that I think about it

Quill

@tchrist That sounds like fun, you kicked them out of your country and now it's time to kick them out of our country

2:10 AM

Nice

JamesENL

I flagged, but probably should've flagged for mod attention

user248725

@JamesENL I flagged the other post the guy tried to vandalize for mod attention

Quill

Meh, no need to get mods involved if the system can handle it

JamesENL

It's more that the guy said he's deliberately going to vandalise posts because his got closed as too broad

user248725

Read the edit. The guy's promising to "[beep] UP OTHER PEOPLES QUESTIONS"

Quill

2:11 AM

Enough edit rejections and he gets edit banned

user248725

Yeah, but that's a pretty high threshold

Quill

not with the vandalism rejection reason

user248725

...oh, right, it changes depending on the reason

Jamal

@Quill Mods can still warn him and ban him from suggesting edits.

user248725

Well my mod flag's been in for almost half an hour now so it's far too late to change anything

Quill

2:13 AM

@Jamal That's true, but still

user248725

Unrelated, could someone explain what stealth mode is?

Quill

It looks like bjb had an account merge or something and that link was broken

Stealth mode is just a figment of their imagination

bjb568

yes

JamesENL

Maybe because bjb changed his name recently

then changed it back

Quill

also because bjb is a ninja cat, so he always moves in stealth mode

user248725

2:18 AM

Because I didn't understand the first answer, I'm going to go with the last

Quill

@QPaysTaxes Looks like bjb had two accounts that got merged, and the system just failed at finding a user link (because it was still to the old one, probably)

My best advice at this point is to move on. I'm sorry we apparently merged you erroneously, but seriously? There's a profile that belongs to your friend with nearly identical email, overlap in contact emails, IPs, etc? Don't share your stuff.

user248725
