Can an admin please either unlock the gbatemp wiki page referring to the IRC, OR update it with the correct information? It's quite outdated and for some reason sysop protected.

http://wiki.gbatemp.net/wiki/index.php?title=IRC

Thanks.

I'd assume that the admins + technicians can edit the wiki (making it 4-5 people) but supervisors etc. cannot.

Why it has been made this way I don't know/remember...

Not a nice thing to say. Its just like saying "YOUS ADMINS ARE DOING A SHIT JOB"

I was being sarcastic.

And yes, that guide is not quite up to speed as you need to use irc2.

I find the wiki here (and wikis in general) very informative and necessary in terms of getting information out there to the public. So I hope an admin or technician can see this post. Thanks.

Its probably better to update their Sysop list (which ain't really hard, you just need 5 minutes or so)

Current:
  • Ace Gunman ?(Sysop)
  • Costello ?(Bureaucrat, Sysop)
  • DarkLink ?(Sysop)
  • Dirtie ?(Sysop)
  • Shaunj66 ?(Bureaucrat, Sysop)
and 2 of them left

Narin isn't one of them, so the theory of only admins and techs is wrong
Dirtie is Former Staff and DarkLink a normal member (they probably helped setting it up or something)

    i thought everybody knew cocktails are like 75% ice
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Yeah but not like this.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not like they're complaining that their Slurpee is 99% ice or something, but if the cocktail calls for "shot of vodka, shot of vermouth, shot of gin, shot of Campari, three shots of juice, squirt of lemon" and ends up being a thimbleful of booze, that's a problem.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    the funny thing is cocktails in norway are only allowed to have 1 20ml shot of booze
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    so..... yeah
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    we're used to only having a thimbleful of booze
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Booo.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    same thing if you want whisky on the rocks or something, you can't get a double
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but you could buy as many shots of whisky (or anything else) as you want and ask for a glass of ice and pour them in
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    it's dumb
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Maybe.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    There was a comparison of the number of Ibuprofen poisonings before and after they limited the maximum dosage per box or per pill (i'll look that up). No limit on the number of boxes you can still buy as many as you want, so people argued it was pointless.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    But the number of (accidental) poisonings dropped because drinking an entire package of ibuprofen pills went from "I need a new liver" to "I need a new box of Ibuprofen".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Here we have ketoprofen that used to be prescription-only because of the risk of toxic dosages, but then they halved the dose per pill and sell them in bottles of six pills apiece instead of twenty and it doesn't need a prescription any more. Yes you can buy more than one bottle but people simply don't.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Usually accidentally overdose of ibuprofen here is from people taking like cold medicine then ibuprofen for a headache and the combination is over what they need
