Honestly hope nobody joins that IRC. The people there are so rude.
Agreed. Last time i joined i got banned for simply having an opinion which was then converted to an "attitude" and used as ban reason. I don't even know how i got involved in something with opinions when what i came for in the first place was some technical advice. Therefore i got interested in this thread when it mentioned FAST6191 as he seems to be pretty wise, but then i saw the thread was in "General Off-Topic" and then i saw it was written by p1ngpong. Im sorry if i got it wrong, but from what i have seen so far he is one of these socalled "trolls" or similar to one at least which leads me to belive that this thread is about recruiting more people to go "lol" on IRC when someone uses a familiar knowyourmeme quote.

So sorry if i got it all wrong, i'm just going to be really disappointed if the treatment will be the same once i join again to discuss somewhat useful/serious matters.

You kind of got it wrong yes, but not completely.

p1ngpong was a former troll indeed, years ago that is. But that was a long long time ago.

Since then I have been:

-GBAtemp irc staff
-Then promoted to a moderator
-Then promoted to a global moderator (now retired as of a month ago, not demoted as some like to believe, and moved to the regular members group instead of former staff by my own request)

Currently the only official position I hold is that of a GBAtemp irc server admin, as well as being an operator in the official channel. So I am more than qualified to make this thread.

I don't know the circumstances behind your ban, but admittedly irc was troubled in the past. Things are better now, we like to keep a balance of silliness as well as more serious discussions. Complete 4chan retards are not welcome on our channel though, that much is certain. So feel free to join, people don't get banned for having an opinion, they usually get banned for how they wish to argue it, if they are belligerent about it or so on.

Brian was trolling by the way.

I confirm that every word of this is the truth.
We trust p1ngpong, and are very happy with his work toward improving GBAtemp.net .

lol.


QUOTE(Hydreigon @ Jun 16 2011, 09:35 PM) I've joined the IRC multiple times before, but it doesn't seem very lively despite the number of people online...

Which is why we are trying to promote it to get it to be more active.
 
I used to go there daily. Last time I checked, many of the people who kept the chat interesting were gone.
I would still recommend checking it out though.
