Yeah I planned to rewrite them at one point. I just don't feel like doing so because then I have the french ones to rewrite as well and wait for someone to translate them in dutch. X.x

I planned to merge Rule 1/2 and put some emphasis on topic advertising or other netiquette stuff such as being patient when asking questions, since ppl might be busy doing other things while someone asks.

I think the problem right now is that the rules are pretty large.

Ralph, if you would like to help rewrite the rules so they are more clear, be my guest. :)

The thing is, how can we say something is wrong if there isn't something against it.
For those scholars of the American Constitution, I feel a "Necessary and Proper" clause is in order. ;)

I could maybe rewrite the rules in english and get someone else like Juju to rewrite them in french.

LOL, maybe.  Although, fun fact.  The Declaration of Independence is 1337 words long.

Hmm, this might help, make things more clear. Maybe have netbot pm people who join the channel and point them to the rules as well?
@DJ: you do do a good job, albeit you make mistakes, but that's only human, we all make mistakes. I make tons myself, but it's what we do with our mistakes that counts. In my opinion you do very well with learning from them, I mean you actively try to, and I know lots of people who don't, they just repeat the same mistakes over and over again.

Yeah that's what I suggested for 2 years about Netbot, to no avail. D:

Ah :( Maybe we could all pester Netham about it? :P
Someone could also make a new bot, or change another one if Netham doesn't have the time to do that.

Yeah, maybe the first four or five times the username/nick/IP joins the channel it could IRC PM the person the rules or a link to them saying "IMPORTANT: READ RULES FIRST" or something.
That could be asking too much tho :P

Also I agree with the first post.  This is kind of getting out of hand sometimes, IMHO

btw the nick 'momrocker' alone sounds kind of nsfw...just an opinion

Yeah I've been considering asking Netham45 so someone else have access to the bot and can modify it or something. A replacement bot might be more hassle, though, since Netbot45 logs the channel. I guess maybe Netbot could be used as a backup bot like Jarvis to do some rudimentary opping while logging OmnomIRC, and the new bot would do the bulk of channel moderating management.

Sounds like writing bots is fun :P
Hope something turns out (bot-creation-wise) after recent events, b/c it seems like it's getting somewhat more urgent than before.

Yeah, much like networks who have ChanServ, it sends notices on join, these notices usually contain links to rules and things like that.

I feel really sad when reading this article.
But I have been rude once on omnom irc too(With SirCmpwn), so I don't have so much to say.
But I did apologize, unlike momrocker...
My idea is this: Put the post-amount-limit to go on omnomirc from 20 to 1000 or so.
This will ofcourse make that I can't chat, but I still got the forum :)
But people can join from irc clients, etc... so I don't know what to do about that.

What momrocker did was awful IMHO, and I feel like I'm trying to help to make #Omnimaga a better place, I've been super active lately and always checking if something is going wrong.

But then again, it's very bad having people spamming/trolling #omnimaga all the time.

has OmnomIRC already been shut down, or is it just netham's server messed up?

netham45.org doesn't work anymore...
