IRC can be automatically transcripted

Just have a server service handle saving the transcript

@ATaco you mean like a PPCG-v2 IRC chanel
 
Pavel
Pavel
@Downgoat Yes, but with a client embeded into our site, with markdown rendering.

IRC is great because it's a well known standard, but it's limited in it's transcript ability and inability to modify or delete older messages.

@ATaco Yeah, it's impossible to edit messages, and deleting messages can only be done by IRCOps iirc

IRC is too simplistic for modern chat
 
Pavel
Pavel
@Mego Is it really, though? Is editing messages necessary?

It's a very useful feature

It means that you don't have to post another message to correct a mistake

If we host our own IRC server that means we can hack in features. IDK if that's practical though.

It's really not

At that point, we may as well just write our own chat protocol

We can have IRC as a placeholder until that gets built, or just link to TNB

We were talking about using Discord originally, which has most of the features of SE chat (and the features it doesn't, like stars, can be added through bots)

In response to the profile spam epidemic: we definitely need a way to flag profiles

I've already blocked a few IPs that have been trying to perform CGI-related hacks :/

So how far off are we from the ability to post answers?

Pavel
@ATaco You can post them they just don't show up anywhere yet

I'll see if I can't work on that.
