Well then perhaps the point you might have clarified is that a noisy IRC channel is the problem all along -- perhaps it&#x27;d be better to split it into 2, perhaps for &#x27;core&#x27; dev and one for &#x27;user&#x27; or something.<p>I hope you didn&#x27;t take offence to my comment, if you read it with my &#x27;idling&#x27; point of view, you can see why I was shaking my head when reading -- getting &#x2F;anything&#x2F; done on a noisy channel is completely useless -on any chat system- unless you explicitly give Voice on request...<p>I my experience, quietish IRC channels are fantastic, I&#x27;m on about 20 of them, 24&#x2F;7 (or so it appears to everyone ;-))
