08:04:53 <Kichigone|Class> Can I help you mystery?
08:05:01 <mystery> no thnks
08:05:05 <Kichigone|Class> Keep in mind, I *am* in class and will probably answer more slowly than usual.
08:05:15 <mystery> hey can i pm u?
08:05:40 <Kichigone|Class> No.
08:05:51 <mystery> ok i will ask u here
08:05:54 <mystery> ok?
08:05:57 <Kichigone|Class> That's the purpose of the channel.
08:06:26 <mystery> ok
08:06:40 <mystery> but i will ask u something for another channel
08:06:48 <Kichigone|Class> I probably can't help you then.
08:06:52 <Kichigone|Class> But go ahead.
08:06:56 <Kichigone|Class> Maybe you'll get lucky.
08:06:56 <mystery> ok
08:07:53 <mystery> well i created a new chan for help and i need ppl to help. and cuz u are an irc operator can joi that channel also?
08:07:57 <mystery> *join
08:08:04 <Kichigone|Class> Why do we need another help channel?
08:08:13 <Kichigone|Class> We already have two.
08:08:13 <mystery> ...
08:08:19 <Kichigone|Class> And they already function well.
08:08:21 <mystery> can u or not?
08:08:26 <Kichigone|Class> I can, but I won't.
08:08:32 <Kichigone|Class> I already work in two help channels.
08:08:32 <mystery> why?
08:08:35 <Kichigone|Class> We don't need a THIRD.
08:08:55 <mystery> anyway
08:09:03 <Kichigone|Class> I get enough stupid questions between the two already.
08:09:23 <mystery> ok
08:09:30 <Kichigone|Class> Why are you starting another help channel?
08:09:34 <Kichigone|Class> We tried three for a while.
08:09:41 <Kichigone|Class> The third one kind of fizzled out.
08:10:02 <mystery> mind won't...
08:10:06 <mystery> LoL
08:10:09 <Kichigone|Class> ...Sure.
08:10:15 <mystery> but i'm not joking!!!
08:10:18 <Kichigone|Class> Why are you making another help channel, though?
08:10:25 <mystery> yea
08:10:32 <mystery> i made it alrweady
08:10:44 <Kichigone|Class> ...
08:10:45 <Kichigone|Class> *already
08:10:51 <mystery> sorry
08:10:52 <Kichigone|Class> But WHY?
08:10:54 <Kichigone|Class> That's my question.
08:11:45 <mystery> i mean sorry that i wrote alrweady!!!
08:12:05 <Kichigone|Class> Please spell the words right.
08:12:20 <Kichigone|Class> And I meant: "Why are you creating ANOTHER help channel?"
08:12:47 <mystery> this is my new laptop and i am still learning it
08:12:58 <Kichigone|Class> ....
08:13:04 <Kichigone|Class> That still doesn't answer my question.
08:13:21 <mystery> i just want to create it!!!
08:13:26 <Kichigone|Class> Though it does explain the typos (been there)
08:13:31 <Kichigone|Class> But why?
08:13:40 <Kichigone|Class> It doesn't help the network to have such fractured services.
08:13:46 <Kichigone|Class> Why can't you just help people here?
08:14:04 <mystery> doesn't matter!!!
08:14:10 <Kichigone|Class> It does.
08:14:12 <mystery> i created it already know
08:14:16 <Kichigone|Class> *now
08:14:32 <Kichigone|Class> It does matter, because it's only going to confuse users.
08:14:35 * [mystery] (java-m42al@SCnet-C6A17DD1.cytanet.com.cy): http://www.surrealchat.net/chat/SurrealChat
08:14:35 * [mystery] is using modes +irx
08:14:35 * [mystery] is connecting from *@***.cytanet.com.cy ##.###.###.##
08:14:35 * [mystery] is a registered nick
08:14:35 * [mystery] #erry +#promotion #diaruga ~#football_rox ~#hilary_rox ~#ask #help
08:14:35 * [mystery] yuzuki.surrealchat.net :SCnet - Halca Leaf - Netherlands
08:14:35 * [mystery] End of WHOIS list.
08:14:39 <mystery> I told you it's my new laptop
08:14:50 <Kichigone|Class> Yes, but k is no where near n
08:15:47 <mystery> anyway there is a new channel who can help ppl
08:15:51 <mystery> nothing else!!!
08:16:12 <Kichigone|Class> But we already have two channels that do that.
08:16:18 <Kichigone|Class> One is official, one is not
08:16:23 <Kichigone|Class> They already cover all the bases.
08:16:39 <mystery> ok but i told you nothing gets hurt!!!
08:16:43 <mystery> *noone
08:16:47 <mystery> *no one
08:17:01 <Kichigone|Class> By attempting to compete with two fully developed help channels, stocked with staff, that are well known, you're assured to fail.
08:17:11 <Kichigone|Class> If you *really* want to help, just hang around here.
08:17:58 * mystery wonders y Kichigine cares for the channel that i created!!!
08:18:20 <Kichigone|Class> I'm just trying to help keep you from wasting your time.
08:18:37 <Kichigone|Class> I promise you, #ask will go the way of the #helpdesk
08:18:59 <mystery> what is #helpdesk?
08:19:05 <Kichigone|Class> That's my point.
08:19:08 <Kichigone|Class> It's long gone.
08:19:15 * *** Notice -- Received KILL message for mew!java-78g3w@SCnet-4C460CD6.hsd1.md.comcast.net from NickServ Path: hanashi!nascent!services!NickServ (Unauthorized nick use with KILL protection enabled.)
08:19:21 <Kichigone|Class> #helpdesk was supposed to be a users-helping-users thing.
08:19:37 <Kichigone|Class> It allowed idling, off-topic conversation, etc.
08:20:15 <Kichigone|Class> It never really took off.
08:20:23 <Kichigone|Class> Everyone just idled and ignored the channel.
08:20:29 <Kichigone|Class> No one ever really joined.
08:20:45 <mystery> Thank you for all your information but u won't make me change my mind
08:20:48 <Kichigone|Class> Fine.
08:21:07 <mystery> okz
08:21:14 <Kichigone|Class> >.<
08:21:17 * Kichigone|Class hates Javaese
08:21:31 <Kichigone|Class> So, here's a question.
08:21:39 <Kichigone|Class> How do you drop a nick?

08:22:24 <Kichigone|Class> At all.
08:22:34 <mystery> u wanted to ask me something???
08:22:49 <Kichigone|Class> How does one connect to the network using SSL?
08:22:55 * mystery doesn't speak Javaese
08:23:22 <Kichigone|Class> Yes, you do.
08:23:37 <mystery> well you think so!!!
08:23:49 <Kichigone|Class> It's a fact.
08:24:02 <mystery> so you wanted to ask something?
08:24:04 <Kichigone|Class> I did.

08:24:56 <Kichigone|Class> It's what the people you'll be helping will expect.

08:26:12 <mystery> hello which planet you come from??? no one knows everything!!! that's why i need ppl to give them status in there so they can answer things that someone else can't!!!
08:26:27 <Kichigone|Class> I come from Earth.
08:26:33 <Kichigone|Class> I used to own one of the servers.
08:26:33 <mystery> anyway
08:26:44 <mystery> ok
08:26:47 <Kichigone|Class> When you run a help channel, it's expected you'll know some of the SIMPLE answers.
08:26:53 <Kichigone|Class> That was an easy question.
08:26:56 <mystery> i know
08:26:58 <mystery> many
08:27:10 <mystery> ...
08:27:25 <Kichigone|Class> You don't just start a channel, not knowing anything, and rely on your staff for the expertise.
08:27:38 <Kichigone|Class> Hell, StyX started this one and helps out regularly.
08:27:41 <mystery> *really
08:27:49 <mystery> see!!!
08:27:51 <Kichigone|Class> All of the Staff are expected to know simple answers.
08:28:02 <Kichigone|Class> StyX started this channel, StyX knows things.
08:28:21 <mystery> but i very rearly see him around
08:28:34 <mystery> you told it too!!!

08:44:59 <Kichigone|Class> ?
08:46:19 <Kichigone|Class> Do you know mIRC?
08:46:28 <Diarug[a]> back >>

08:46:42 <Diaruga> ty
08:46:44 <Kichigone|Class> mystery, do you know mIRC?
08:46:49 <mystery> not really
08:46:54 <Kichigone|Class> What about XChat?
08:47:12 <mystery> not a thing!!!
08:47:20 <Kichigone|Class> irssi?
08:47:21 <Dali> irssi is scriptable.
08:47:26 * Kichigone|Class smacks Dali
08:47:35 <Kichigone|Class> mystery, irssi?
08:47:37 <mystery> but i got someone who knows for mirc lot!!!
08:47:45 <Kichigone|Class> What about Colloquy?
08:47:50 <mystery> will u stop it!???
08:48:04 <Kichigone|Class> You don't even know the basic IRC clients for your platform.
08:48:15 <Kichigone|Class> (Granted, Colloquy was kind of an odd-ball OS X client)
08:48:15 <mystery> i don't f******g care for your questions!!!
08:48:20 <Kichigone|Class> You better.
08:48:27 <Kichigone|Class> You're going to get questions about those clients in your chan.
08:48:49 <mystery> i will ignore u
08:48:50 <mystery> !!!
08:48:55 <Kichigone|Class> That's real bright.
08:49:03 <Kichigone|Class> Ignore the person who is showing you what you're getting into.
08:49:43 <Kichigone|Class> Oh, FYI: You can't access the server via SSL in Java. You CAN access the server using SSL through X-Chat using /sslserver irc.surrealchat.net 7001
08:49:56 <Kichigone|Class> Not sure how to do it in mIRC, but I know you require an add-on.
08:50:33 <Kichigone|Class> Colloquy has a similar system, and I think irssi uses a -ssl option.
08:50:43 <mystery> will u stop
08:50:44 <mystery> !!!
08:50:45 <Kichigone|Class> Why.
08:50:53 <Kichigone|Class> You're in our channel.
08:51:04 <Kichigone|Class> These are things you should know.
