@RandomPerson last 90 days

longest time frame available

@RandomPerson yeah but... what you wrote is either ungrammatical or means something different to what I wrote

I think what I wrote is just fine

so I didn't feel like replying to that :/

sorry

I thought maybe we could chat about it when you were around

@RandomPerson I think so yes, but he won't be able to tell which ones have the most support

3:12 AM

thanks for posting the meta question though

I do think it will be worth posting more answers to Phillippe's question

I suppose that we should burn this tag: naming-conventions

@Zanna OK.

@Zanna for mods or 10K rep. users?

@Zanna It's OK!

@Zanna Sure. Go ahead.

@Zanna hmmm.. true.

@Zanna :)

@Zanna True!

@BeastOfCaerbannog If you can, post about this in meta :)

Hey mods! @jokerdino @Zanna What's your opinion about adding the featured tag in my latest meta post such that more people from our community can see the question?

4:23 PM

@RandomPerson same for all

@RandomPerson I'm not sure I need to post a question in meta. The tag is only used by 22 questions, doesn't have a usage description, and I don't think that there would be a debate about removing it.

I would just need a confirmation from a mod and I could remove it myself.

Mod -> @Zanna

[ Natty | Sentinel ] boot Try Ubuntu Without Installing Macbook 2011 8.2 By: Bannok 5.0;

well I see no value in that tag

though I don't want to discourage anyone from posting on meta

we could probably come up with a good pun about it

:58799074 the waving? That was a "hi!" wave, sorry for its ambiguity

Hahaha

4:33 PM

and hi :)

@Zanna Yeah! I deleted it just when you answered :/

@Zanna Hi :D

@Zanna do you have something in mind?

@BeastOfCaerbannog now my message will be completely baffling to future historians :D

@BeastOfCaerbannog not really... in any case I think it's probably okay to get rid of that tag without a meta post

@Zanna Hahaha!

@Zanna if you think that a meta post is more appropriate, I really have no problem in creating one. But I think it's obvious in this specific case that the tag is not useful.

yeah :)

Great! I'll do it tomorrow. If anyone needs some rep from editing (@RandomPerson), feel free to edit and I will probably review them.

@Zanna You don't have to remove them yourself (I suppose it might be tempting to you).

5:02 PM

I just skimmed through them for issues that are easier for me to deal with :/

very slowly working on the troubleshooting tag

@RandomPerson good idea

slightly worried about an argument kicking off about EOL policy :/

btw tip for anyone interested: you may have noticed that when you format a tag in chat you can click it and go to the page of posts with the tag

if you want to refer to a meta tag, you can use [meta-tag:tagname]

example: featured

oh, there aren't any featured meta posts right now... I'll tag your post @RandomPerson , somewhat warily

now my example works :)

@RandomPerson can you elaborate a bit on what you don't like about the current wording?
