Could you nuke this account? Preferably ask somebody to do it network wide.

Nine questions so far and all heavily downvoted for not being suitable to our Q&A. Makes me wonder when the question ban will finally kick in. In the meantime, please hold your horses with all the "primarily opinion based", "too broad", "unclear what you're asking", or "product recommendation" questions and rather take the time to go through our Help center, especially the How to Ask page. It will save everyone here the bother of sustaining repetitive stress injury while voting to close your questions. Thanks! — TildalWave 59 secs ago

@TildalWave There are more than nine network wide

@CodesInChaos Nuking the account seems a bit severe IMHO.

@CodesInChaos Oh didn't check that ... anyway, how come they can ask so many questions?

I mean how come the system lets them

I think only SO is applying rate limiting

Well that's wrong

@TildalWave Because "the system" over here is @RoryAlsop and @AviD and they are probably drunk somewhere since it's a Saturday

12:11 PM

@TerryChia I thought they're "the establishment"

@TildalWave The "how does i make malware" questions don't get me in "second chances" mood.

Pretty much all the questions boil down to "how does become script kiddy???"

@CodesInChaos It's just a misguided user ... with some you need to educate them in how to ask questions first. Granted, that does take a lot of energy and banning / nuking might be a lot simpler.

@CodesInChaos I read them more in the sense of trying to gather bloggable contents to brag in front of friends with

@TildalWave Not a fan of illiterate blogging either.

12:51 PM

@TerryChia sorted. Questions closed and deleted, along with guidance and a brief suspension...

@CodesInChaos Oh I'm not a fan of any logging. Terribly noisy :)

@RoryAlsop cheers Rory

This is pretty funny. :P

@LucasKauffman Congrats on 2 years at EY according to LinkedIn.

2:32 PM

@LucasKauffman I didn't wait. Made pizza and had a nice lager with it. I'll have another in about 10 minutes :)

@TildalWave Another pizza or beer? :P

Beer (Mönchshof) but I do have some pizza left too for munchies later.

Oh, man! Alex Salmond has quit.

Journeyman Geek

whut?

I genuinely liked the guy.

Journeyman Geek

He was a bit of a dreamer IMO

@JourneymanGeek Have you seen his speech after the results were announced?

Journeyman Geek

nope

> I accept that verdict of the people and I call on all of Scotland to follow suit in accepting the democratic verdict of the people of Scotland.

An example to politicians around the world.

@RoryA Even though I very much have no horse in the race, I'm extremely proud of Scotland.

The whole process went very smoothly, very peacefully (for the most part), and the leaders of the "Yes" campaign were very graceful in accepting defeat.

Something that every country should look up to, and learn from.

4:11 PM

In my opinion he was a complete scumbag who had 20 years to actually prepare a future for Scotland but didn't...

And a huge vocal number of the Yes supporters I see online are being thoroughly offensive about the 'Shame of Scotland' etc

@RoryAlsop Jesus!

I had no idea

4:31 PM

To some he was the epitome of integrity. To others, the single reason not to vote SNP

And then again, look at the rioting in Glasgow, seemingly caused by unionist thugs

it's not fun currently

@RoryAlsop :(

@RоryMcCune must be happy he's living in the middle of the wilderness.

Thaaa fuck is this bullshit?!

Nazi salutes, flares, and mounted police. More images of Glasgow's George Square from The Herald's Jamie Simpson http://t.co/eHel2VJddJ

And why are so many people posting pictures of Canada, Sweden, and London riots, and then labelling them as being from Glasgow?

@Adnan to cause trouble

The actual extent is a few fist fights

not good, but nothing like the nonsense flying round social media

@RoryAlsop You just summed up the entire world in one sentence.

I have a friend who's into Star Wars. I wanna get him something for his birthday.

Any ideas?

4:38 PM

@Adnan heh - I could just look at my bass player's house. He has everything star wars.

Does your friend like miniatures, t-shirts, clothing, lego, etc

@RoryAlsop I guess miniatures and t-shirts would go very well with him

@Adnan A Jar Jar punching bag?

@TerryChia Logistically infeasible

I'm looking for something easily shippable to Finland

cool places to find star wars t shirts:

tshirtmachine.com/merchandise/star-wars

thinkgeek.com/interests/starwars/…

@RoryAlsop Sweet! UK-based

No import taxes = good

4:44 PM

yeah - thinkgeek is a bit more expensive, but I get a lot of my geekier stuff there

4:54 PM

Ended up getting this one

The men's version, of course.

5:13 PM

I like it

@RoryAlsop I love thinkgeek. Whenever I visit their site, I open 1000 tabs, ooh and aah at the products and then close my browser with a sad face

@Kisunminttu You've just summarized pretty much every man's experience with porn.

Kisunminttu

@Adnan That's a bit genderist, don't you think?
