Welcome to chat for: Vegetarianism

This is a general discussion room, but please feel free to create more subject-specific rooms (a single room with every possible discussion isn't very helpful)

For playing with chat features:

Sandbox

Where you can play with chat features (except flagging) and ch...

and remember; please read the FAQ ;p)

Hiya

Adam Lear

Hey hey. I'm not actually here as such. Was just strong-arming the chatroom into showing up in the rooms list :)

Bhargav Rao

Okay, let's all pretend that we did not see you. :P

Carpetsmoker

Hurray, I got user id 42!

gerrit

I like our favicon!

ⓥ

Carpetsmoker

19:19

Yeah, I was just looking at that

Never seen it like that

Bhargav Rao

This is the first private beta that I'm entering into

gerrit

Welcome :)

Bhargav Rao

Thanks.

I've always been active only on one site, Only after entering the TL, I started to explore other sites

So the employees will chose the protem mods randomnly?

Or is there a process for that?

Adam Lear

Towards the end of private beta, assuming no issues, there will be a post made on meta to solicit nominations for protems

You can nominate other people, not just yourself

Bhargav Rao

Ah, Gotcha. Thanks

Adam Lear

19:24

the community team will choose the mods, so it's not an election or anything, but the decisions are influenced by that thread

Bhargav Rao

That sounds quite interesting.

gerrit

Is it just me or is something going on with the frontpage stylesheet? I'm getting no stylesheet for the mainpage.

Bhargav Rao

Press Ctrl+f5

Wait, It was proper for me and after I refreshed it got screwed up

gerrit

Ctrl+F5 does not fix it for me.

Bhargav Rao

@gerrit asking on meta

gerrit

19:31

@AdamLear here is a developer if I'm not mistaken so perhaps knows more?

Adam Lear

hmm

Bhargav Rao

Oh, Adam is here. So no need for a meta

Adam Lear

my bad, fixing now

Carpetsmoker

Ah, it's not just me :-)

Bhargav Rao

Looks fixed

gerrit

19:33

Thanks

Adam Lear

When I first set up a site, we were gonna use vegetarian.SE as the domain, and then decided to switch over to vegetarianism.SE to match the title. I missed a couple settings, evidently. :)

Riker

woah we have a chat cool

@gerrit cool, it wasn't just me

Bhargav Rao

First non blue username, Nice...

Riker

lel

oh really?

gerrit

Why are the colours different?

Riker

19:46

mods and non-mods

Carpetsmoker

Blue are mods

Riker

blue name is a mod

italized name is a room owner

Bhargav Rao

Men in Blue

Riker

black is a normal user

Carpetsmoker

Never noticed before, but, SO mods are also mods on SE chats, but not the other way around

Bhargav Rao

19:47

Yes, It's because we deal with the extra heavy load of flags

Carpetsmoker

Don't think I've ever even used my "chat mod powers"

Riker

@Carpetsmoker yeah, and iirc MSE chat, normal mods can't do anything

Carpetsmoker

Other than create a single mod-only room

Riker

only admins

Bhargav Rao

I've used it a lot in the past 2 months

Riker

19:50

ironic: I'm the only non-blue-name user, but all my messages appear blue to me

(like everybody's messages appear to them)

Carpetsmoker

It seems I only hang out in the flame-free chat rooms :-)

Either that, or I have a calming effect on people

Bhargav Rao

Or you're too slow and the other mods have already dealt with it :P

Carpetsmoker

@BhargavRao Oi! Personal insults!

Riker

shots fired

Bhargav Rao

gerrit

20:00

Why are so many of us mods?

Bhargav Rao

@gerrit Because we can't kick-mute them and throw them out?

gerrit

I mean, how did we all become mods on the Vegetarianism site?

Bhargav Rao

We aren't mods on the site.

We are only mods in the chat as it's the same platform for all of SE (except SO and MSE)

Riker

but chat is universal mostly

Bhargav Rao

If you see this page, chat.stackexchange.com/rooms/info/52824/vegetarianism, We can't do any actions of a mod there.

Only veg.se mods can do it

Riker

20:07

also: nice favicon

I like it, simple but not just a plain V

Carpetsmoker

Oh look, we have our first case of plagiarism

gerrit

@Carpetsmoker Where?

Riker

A: What cheese is considered vegetarian?

Opinion based so this question might be closed. For me, if it has non-animal rennet I will buy it. If it just says "enzymes", it is not specific enough.
