Q: I am looking for a JavaScript IRC client

http://sourceforge.net/projects/jisirc/ is exactly what I need, only problem is it has multiple ActiveX dependencies and that will not do. Does anyone know of any similar projects which are more portable?

hichris123

@JohannesKuhn Flagged for you.

Johannes Kuhn

who the hell upvotes such a question? "blah is what I need but it has dependencies". WTF? +8 (before I downvoted).

@hichris123 already voted to close.

hichris123

But it now gets more priority in the queue, I think.

Maybe not.

Johannes Kuhn

ohh, open since 09.

hichris123

Anyway, that was back before questions like that were not acceptable.

Johannes Kuhn

23:02

and a late answer. Sure.

Shadow Wizard

Don't see the point of messing with old questions... they were perfectly valid back then.

A: I am looking for a JavaScript IRC client

Spam alert

Johannes Kuhn

nah, just "might be useful for the op" - but it is not. Not after 5 years. Not with only a screenshot. And this is not your twitter/facebook.

Shadow Wizard

Interesting discussion ahead

Q: Is it bad etiquette to not remove a downvote on a question after the content of the question has been made better?

Is it bad etiquette to not remove a down-vote on a question after the content of the question has been made better? ~~~ ref: The following form of the question posted on SO... Automating a Drag&Drop File Upload with WATIR in Chrome on OSX ~~~~ As the person asking the question, i did not ask...

discussion down-votes etiquette

hichris123

I'm almost considering stopping replying to the OP on this:

A: What is the purpose of closing questions?

The reason why questions are closed is because there are major problems with the question, so bad that the community deems the question unfit to answer. In regard to your proposal about using a different system: Spam/Offensive/Opinion based: These types of posts are problems, spam and offensiv...

@hichris123 feel free to stop replying, if you ask me

lol

argh, edited.

Yay my mSO sock puppet got some legit rep!

Now, let's see if anyone can figure out which mSO user is my puppet (mods disqualified, because reasons)

ElfSlice

@Undo Shog9?

Wait, no, he's a mod.

animuson

I bet it's something like Redo.

ElfSlice

Yeah that would make sense

Shadow Wizard

@Undo this one look promising

but there ain't no rep

Undo

@ShadowWizard Nope

ElfSlice

23:31

meta.stackoverflow.com/users?tab=Reputation&filter=week

@Undo how recently did you acquire this rep?

Undo

@ElfSlice I'm not going to say.

And it's not like I check the account a bunch.

hichris123

Was it in 2014 @Undo?

Undo

@hichris123 The rep was earned in '14, yes.

ElfSlice

So filter by week then

Undo

@ElfSlice Weeks start on Sunday, methinks.

hichris123

23:37

Not a default username?

Undo

No comment ;P

hichris123

Start around here:

meta.stackoverflow.com/…

ElfSlice

Well it's the 7th.

Is it not just by the last 7 days?

Maybe not.

hichris123

Was it earned before Monday?

@Undo

Undo

@hichris123 Mmmm... not going to say.

The idea is you have to analyze patterns and try to match them :P

hichris123

23:39

@Undo Please? That way I can SEDE it if it is. :)

Undo

Exactly.

This is going to be fun

hichris123

No downvotes?

Undo

Hehe

hichris123

And did you have rep before this?

Undo

I'm not going to give you any more hints :P

ElfSlice

23:41

Just downvote every post from the past week and see when he complains.

Undo

(except that I'm logged in with it right now)

Shadow Wizard

@Undo is this your sock?

Undo

I have never seen that sock before. No.

jmac

Undo is actually the sock puppet. His real account is Jon Skeet.

Undo

rofl

whistles

That would be plausible if I could understand C# :P

jmac

23:45

Sock Puppet Shenaningans I say.

hichris123

@Undo Please one hint: when did you join, approximatly, was it in '14, was it after December '13?

I have a list...

Undo

@hichris123 After Dec '13

So in '14

hichris123

In '14?

Undo

Created in '14

I joined early last year, though :P

hichris123

So your sock in '14, you in early '13?

Undo

23:49

@hichris123 Yeah

I have to wonder if you'll be able to figure it out.

There is literally nothing similar between the accounts.

Q: Remove the faq popup

While the FAQ popup bar might be helpful to new users, it quickly gets annoying having to close it when browsing yet another SE site. Would it be possible to either not show it, or, only show it once globally (e.g. with an external javascript file)?

feature-request new-users

^ @animuson status-completed plz?

Or even close as not-reproducible-anymore.

Yay thanks Shog!

hichris123

@Undo No downvotes?

Undo

You already asked that.

hichris123

Answer it then.

Undo

status-no-comment

hichris123

What the heck?

Meta Stack Overflow is currently offline for maintenance

Okay, it fixed itself.

Undo

23:56

Not here

ElfSlice

@hichris123 Which part of that was confusing you?

Undo

sigh you got me all excited for an mSE split :P

hichris123

@ElfSlice It gave me like a skull and crossbones page.

ElfSlice

SO's been hacked!

hichris123

@Undo One more hinty please!

Undo

23:57

Yeah

hichris123

Is there anything on the profile description place?

About me, whatever.

Undo

@hichris123 Sure there is!

hichris123

@Undo Is that the truth?

Undo

I always write things in boxes!

@hichris123 Uhh... yeah

Shadow Wizard

@hichris123 yup
