@Memor-X: If you want to suggest masturbation, be an adult and suggest masturbation. The answer as it stands is just childish. — abby hairboat ♦ 56 mins ago
just needs a good edit imo
@bjb568 This perhaps looks like a site that... uh.. shouldn't make it to public beta...
@hichris123 I've already found it useful, received good answers to both my questions.
I think it's better than workplace for sure.
01:17
The scope is all over the place, though... lifehacks.stackexchange.com/questions/156/…
true, hopefully they'll give people enough time to figure out how to narrow things down before they close it
We're now streaming the #stackexchange SQL upgrade - prepping now and we'll begin in a bit: https://plus.google.com/events/cesravqha77ldfa2supvm2rarhc
01:32
Ooo @hichris123 is around now.
@animuson ... am I needed?
I was destroying accounts earlier and you weren't around. :(
user259867
... to be destroyed?
@animuson woah.
@animuson That is a lot of red numbers
01:33
I consider @hichris123 my account destruction buddy. Whatever that is.
A lot of very big red numbers o_o
I wasn't around means "I was actually doing my homework." :P
@animuson nice!
@animuson welp. That puts some... uh... thoughts that I might be scheduled for deletion in my head.

woot! symmetrical rep on lifehackers!

01:35
Nice!
@Doorknob冰 Red Wednesday :)
"This account is scheduled for deletion..." Oh shit he's in chat! Cancel! CANCEL!!!!
Well, technically I was at work. My task for today involved reorganizing a drawer of reports. Yeah, had to stretch that 30 minute project over an 8 hour day...
I can't believe they actually mailed me a check for $6.72 for mileage reimbursement...
@animuson They were expecting you to automate it. That's why you had 8 hours.
01:39
Gotta love waiting for other people to finish their work so you can have work to do.
@animuson Well, can you claim that being in the flags queue is somehow a part of your job description, and thus should be paid for it?
I spent most of my day on SO. Hell, my coworker spends most of her day browsing Pinterest and Amazon. At least I'm doing something productive.
I feel like there's an analogy to xkcd.com/303 that can be made here.
@Doorknob冰 Our boss would just walk by, stare for a moment, say "ok..." and act like nothing out of the ordinary was happening.
@animuson I'm totally wondering what your job is, now.
01:44
(But frankly, nothing out of the ordinary is happening.)
user259867
Because of the Math elections, I made a Citizenship Score query, borrowing the term from Atwood. May be of interest to those on other sites. I tried to make it as non-opaque as possible, @Shog9.
We spent three hours playing frisbee with the lid off a candy container once.
@Behaviour interesting...
@Shog9 is leaning more today.
getting toward the end of the year. I'm tired.
01:48
must have insider info on a tilted hat
@Behaviour I like your method of relying on badges to do the heavy lifting there. Avoids a lot of the, uh, voodoo that tends to creep into these otherwise.
user259867
I originally wanted to also include Custodian and Reviewer, but counting only once, not separately by review type. Failing to code this property in SQL, I dropped these badges altogether. It would not change the results much: the folks at the top are all reviewers.
user206222
I'm not sure it would work quite as well on small sites for pro-tem moderators (or as a whole). For larger sites, I like it, though.
user259867
02:03
But perhaps, it's better without anything tied to reviews. So easy to game those.
Maybe; it takes a lot of time though.
On the one hand, if you're editing / flagging, you're gonna get some other badges
On the other, there's an awful lot of... Well, grinding... To being a mod.
user259867
We don't know if the reviews are any good. Edits can be awful too, but generally users don't do it on purpose, or it becomes rather visible.
user259867
Flags need to be marked helpful to count.
02:18
1 point for badge type - so two points for maxing out any one review queue
user259867
@Shog9 Nice, but needs a descriptive title!
I'm really bad about that

lol, hopefully, but I didn't realize I was so close till now, now I'm nervous :) 2nd place is the first loser

Hiya
Does my recent reputation activity look suspicious?
I've received a few downvotes recently on my profile.
SO?
@Bart You should advertise them on drupal
6 DVs yesterday, and 3 DVs today... hmm
09:38
@Qantas94Heavy I'm going for a blind "yes".
It's not in line with other reputation changes I see for you
If there is no mod around here (anyone .. yone .. one .. ne ..e?) then I'd go for an "other" flag @Qantas94Heavy.
And clearly explain the situation
No SO mod here...
lpapp is pokeable, so chat banned users aren't disabled.
Stop poking lpapp. The poor guy can't respond, and your beak is too sharp to poke with
....but ....I ....didn't ....poke
they left the Tavern before I arrived ...
Ah, so he misses us?
@InfiniteHappiness He joins now and then in the SO Close Voters room though...

Ah, but you that's just because you can leave the Tavern, it just never leaves you.
:D
try leaving :D
I do so every day @InfiniteHappiness. I am not here out of my own free will
Meanwhile, I'm helping out at a company where they lost a week of work because someone overwrote a folder in FTP...
if user's tag score is negative, is it because of spam/offensive flag?
10:03
no, downvotes
@Qantas94Heavy sounds as a lot of fun...
oh, I forgot the tag score update time
nvm
@Qantas94Heavy I hope you're making it clear as well that a folder in FTP should not be your single point of failure?
Because I disliked the asker. (A lazy, uneducated, imploite, with poor English... person) needs adjusted. I can't think of a better way to phrase it, but I think this needs split into 2 options. Downvoting the user is different downvoting a lazy and poorly written question. — psubsee2003 14 hours ago

It's disturbing to see lifehack users recommending nail polish remover for cleaning random stains. They have no respect for it.
nuked (low accept rate)
Actually the POB question is a dupe of stackoverflow.com/q/22739920/3622940
10:36
@Unihedro I can't really tell. It's about setting environmental variable that is executed by Java apps. Dupe of this?
@AndrewT. I think it's about their environmental variable being set, so that's not the right dupe.
@InfiniteHappiness never confuse it with Polish nail remover ... big mistake.

@Bart thanks I couldn't see anything on the meta about it
the meta doesn't seem particularly active either
I'm not sure that that's a bad thing. ;)
10:46
@Bart btw - how do you know about the issues?
Utter lack of an interesting personal life @oraclecertifiedprofessional. ;) Nah, some mentioned some issues before in chat. And SE's updates usually get mentioned somewhere. Stack Status site/Twitter. On Meta Stack Exchange. There was a hangout recently where it was mentioned. Stuff like that.
@Bart haha. Thanks. There was a question on there I needed to get to but I've just remembered that Google caches the pages so I can still get on with it
@Bart grrr.... I am very fond of nail polishes and removers. No nail polish remover jokes please!!
Eek! JanDvorak attempted a nail polish remover joke too.

@Unihedro Depends. Do you have an explanation for its ferocity? Is it a male or a female?
@Unihedro ... or more importantly, when was the last time you feed it? or took it for a "walk"?
@Unihedro replace it with a debugging rubber owl. It won't allow incorrect grammar, or beginner questions, or links. Soon you will stop debugging. Problem solved!

@InfiniteHappiness that one? leaving aside for a moment the fact that I don't even know if it was you (could be Rene or someone else), I was just pointing out that the Tavern currently is a sort of SE Police club. Nothing more, nothing less, no need to be sorry.
