I'll keep that in mind. I think I'm looking way to early when few people are there.

That's....very difficult to do. But I'll try and do that sometime. I'm trying to be more sociable in general (slowly but surly).

Personally not sure if pinging someone could help instantly. Like, do you think that you should prepare a proper topic first before doing so with particular people to make it goes smooth, or else they would feel you bother them much? Yet saying "how are you" feels kind of awkward as it would grow a random impression that you're really eager to know their real life situation, while some people just don't want to talk about them because it might be too personal.

I could care less. If I'm on and somebody pings, I'll talk. I'm just there if people wanna bug me. Now granted, if I'm busy I'll tell you to kindly assert your ass to the end of my boot <#

When I notify someone on IRC, I usually dive straight into a conversation in whatever topic I want to. Sometimes I'd say hi, but mostly I just go straight into talking about whatever topic I wish to talk about with the person.

Also, the actual term isn't pinging. Pinging is a term used for testing latency between you and the person you've decided to ping. It's more formally known as a CTCP ping command. Highlighting or notifying somebody would be a more accurate way to say that you've typed someone's name to get their attention. :D

Jesus fuck, dude, there were 5 full pages of people contributing to the very obvious purpose of this thread before you showed up to complain about how you don't understand the point of it. Now it's page 11 and half of the thread is a ridiculous argument between you and Rokon that could've been carried out via PM or avoided entirely if you just ignored the thread instead of actively disrupting it.

I'm going to start handing out infractions if things get out of control again.


I was stating an opinion.

Then he said that he would close the thread because of my 'opinion'. Of course I had to explain. What did you want me to do? Take it to the chat thread? I simply carried on a conversation of relevant topics.
