3:00 PM
@Ender I take a better look and you are right on the point that does not have you answer there. But keep 4 close votes is kind hard. so close and reopen is the best solution =)
 
And here come the passive-aggressive stars.
 
@GnomeSlice You want to argue, pull your weight.
 
@michel i see
 
@OrigamiRobot told you to re-read. You missed the change. That's your problem, not his.
 
Can we please stop starring that condescending message. Thanks.
 
3:01 PM
@Ender done xD
 
@fbueckert Re-read what?
He didn't specify.
 
FAE
@GnomeSlice I'll drop the passive-aggressive part and say flat out that that statement has been more true than not, historically, and if you want people to stop making the implication (which is not an untrue implication), then you should work to change your behavior.
 
Done.
 
FAE
(and I didn't star that, for the record)
 
3:02 PM
@FAE I do not expect you to 'keep me in line'.
Which I take offensively.
Not that my flag appears to have done any good.
I wonder why.
 
<Gets fed up and shoots the drama in the FACE>
:D
 
@Ender I reworded it to prevent future confusion.
 
Good thinking
 
@winterswift that may have been why, it was on mobile so no adblock
 
@GnomeSlice Wait, what? You flagged me? Nothing I said was offensive, just stating a well known fact.
 
3:03 PM
@badp @GraceNote can you clear those stars?
@fbueckert That you think you should be able to tell everyone that you think I expect everyone in here to 'keep me in line' is putting words in my mouth, and I take offense to it.
 
@Origami The scope of the question wasn't meant to be just about Engis though.
 
FAE
@GnomeSlice I believe what @fbueckert meant was not keeping you in line in regards to controlling your behavior, but keeping you in line in regards to trying to explain every aspect of the conversation that you're not understanding.
 
@FAE Either way.
 
@winterswift The scope of the question isn't just about engis now.
 
@FAE Yeah, that was what I meant. Should have clarified that. Sorry.
 
3:05 PM
@GnomeSlice We have also gone to great lengths to prevent your 6-month chat ban, which is something you've not really done yourself.
 
@Fluttershy What? You'd best be joking about that last part.
 
FAE
@GnomeSlice In the latter case, he's saying that it becomes tiring to try to hold the weight of both sides of an argument, which is a true statement.

lol jk I'm dumping you so I can afford the unlimited data plan
 
@fredley Who was doing this, me?
 
FAE
3:06 PM
@BenBrocka hahaha
 
@GnomeSlice I'm not joking at all. How many offensive flags did you get the other night? Because you couldn't filter what you were saying? We asked you to remove things, and you didn't.
 
FAE
@BenBrocka You know those candy conversation hearts? I saw some on vacation that said "Text me" and "Tweet me". I was like, "Holy crap, I feel old".
 
@Fluttershy I've been filtering what I'm saying. I didn't realize people would flag words often used derogatorily without any context or direction.
 
@GnomeSlice The biggest point is, how can you ask people to flag you less when you flag things like that. You know that's not how flags are supposed to work.
 
@Origami I suppose you're right, it does preserve the initial question. Though Hand-E-Food's comment combined with my answer made it worth more, in the sense that it also answers "Do crewmembers gain experience from extinguishing fires?"
 
3:08 PM
That's like getting angry at someone for talking about the word 'Jew'.
 
@FAE lol
 
@OrigamiRobot Because I can't do it as well as you guys.
 
FAE
@BenBrocka Sec, lemme upload the pic off my phone.
 
@Fluttershy Bahahahahahaha
 
3:09 PM
@GnomeSlice people obviously flag you just because you're you
 
TypeError at /account/settings/ - send_mail() got multiple values for keyword argument 'fail_silently'
Lol
 
@GnomeSlice So you want us to hold you to a different standard?
 
@badp That's not what was flagged.
 
@GnomeSlice That's the point, it wasn't flagged
 
3:09 PM
@GnomeSlice I would have flagged that
 
@OrigamiRobot I don't know. Maybe. Why are we talking about me, I thought we were talking about social media.
 
@Origami Though, on the other hand, it could be deduced from the older question (the one which it got closed for duping) that experience is not gained from it. Just a thought about making it easier to find in the future, though.
 
@badp Interesting. Maybe because he deserved it.
 
@kalina So would I
 
Not that that's ever helped before. Or made it appropriate.
 
3:10 PM
@fredley I wonder if we can flag it this far back
 
Why do you guys hate me so much.
 
@GnomeSlice I am this close to put an end to this discussion with "see you in six months" here and now.
 
@kalina Eh, we can just wait for some new piece of obscenity
 
@badp ...Yes, that's not abuse.
 
@winterswift There is nothing wrong with repeating information from other questions. Answers don't make dupes. You can even link to that other answer if you want.
 
3:10 PM
You can't just ban me because you feel like it, I'm not cursing at anyone, or insulting anyone.
 
@GnomeSlice But you do all the time
 
1 min ago, by badp
@GnomeSlice http://chat.stackexchange.com/messages/7635510/history
 
@GnomeSlice depends if he's using the "value of an individual statement" method of banning or the "cumulative contribution to chat" method of banning
 
1 min ago, by GnomeSlice
@badp Interesting. Maybe because he deserved it.
 
because you do have a habit of digging a bigger and bigger hole for yourself once you get going
I wouldn't want to be gnomeslice-less for six months though
you provide me with my daily intake of drama many days per week
 
3:12 PM
@badp Yes, that was 10 days ago.
 
user image
5
 
@fredley dig up, stupid
 
Gravatars shopped on stuff is always appropriate.
 
@BenBrocka If you go down far enough it becomes up
 
3:13 PM
@GnomeSlice Yes, and we graced you that time too.
 
Based on that picture I assume Gnomeslice is digging himself into trouble?
2
 
It being 10 days ago doesn't make it any less relevant.
 
@Wipqozn Well, he's currently here, so yes
 
@badp I don't want to argue with you about this. He was being a jerk, and nobody flagged it.
 
@GnomeSlice You act like a fool because you think it's what people want when really it just annoys everyone. You say you're not really like this? Act like it.
 
3:15 PM
@badp I don't want to argue with you about it... He was being a jerk, and nobody flagged it.
 
@GnomeSlice It is not jerkish to ask you to read the backlog
Sorry
 
@GnomeSlice Again, you know that's not how flags work.
 
@badp Who? Tiddy?
@OrigamiRobot What, that's exactly how flags work. Nobody flagged it because they didn't flag it.
 
@GnomeSlice If someone is doing something you don't like, ignore them.
 
@GnomeSlice Did you know you can highlight messages to trace back the chain of replies? It helps!
 
3:16 PM
@badp You linked me to three different messages.
 
You'll see I was replinyg to "He was being a jerk", which is you referencing Origami
 
Wait, no, it's just one.
@badp ...No, it was me referencing tiddy. In the message you keep linking me to. chat.stackexchange.com/messages/7635510/history
Try to keep up.
3
 
@GnomeSlice Starred for irony
4
 
@GnomeSlice This is you being a jerk. Should I flag this?
 
@kalina @fredley I edited it.
 
3:18 PM
@GnomeSlice doesn't matter
 
@OrigamiRobot I don't know. Probably. Do you find it offensive?
 
2 mins ago, by OrigamiRobot
@GnomeSlice Again, you know that's not how flags work.
 
I am a little surprised I wasn't banned this morning
 
@GnomeSlice No one flagged you and no one flagged timmy. I don't know if timmy was being graced but you sure have been.
 
@kalina ...what did you do?
 
3:19 PM
@OrigamiRobot Uh.
@badp I'm relatively certain I flagged tiddy.
 
:7766017 Justifyably, IMO
 
@GraceNote I reacted badly to a comment made
 
Why are we arguing about this?
 
probably took it a little too far in retrospect
 
@kalina I'm also very disappointed in you for this morning btw. "I'll accept the ban you'll give me for what I'm about to write so I get to write anything I want" is a terrible argument
 
3:20 PM
@kalina Graceful editing.
 
Oh... I can't see deleted messages anymore since I'm not a room owner...
 
@badp hence "went all GnomeSlice"
 
@kalina For the record, I'm that kind of super-cool that can read deleted messages even if I didn't catch it in the transcript. Although I did see it anyway.
 
Back to social media: gnomeslice.wordpress.com
 
@GraceNote I didn't delete it because I was hiding it, I deleted it because my sentences were out of order and then reposted the same thing again a few lines later
 
@StackExchange Dammit! Why am I never made a room owner!?
 
Aaaw, everyone's a room owner but me :(
 
@fbueckert @Wipqozn has been a room owner here for as long as I have been present on arqade
 
@fbueckert You're the marshall already
 
@fredley And me. And @fbueckert. And @OrigamiRobot. Lots of people.
 
3:22 PM
@badp Marshall
 
I wouldn't do that for anybody else
 
@badp Sheriff? I thought I shot that guy
 
Just give me a second, contemplating @GnomeSlice as room owner
2
 
@kalina Actually, I haven't. @badp removed at one point for... something. I can't remember why. @badp adds and removes me from room ownership as a joke. It's fairly amusing.
 
@BenBrocka But not the dep-u-ty.
 
3:22 PM
@fredley Why do you have to turn my comment into a joke at my expense.
 
@badp If I'm the marshal, that means I need to have some sort of authority.
 
@GnomeSlice I am not a room owner.
 
Oh look, hate stars.
 
@GnomeSlice Because it's funny!
 
@Wipqozn well I added you ssssh don't tell the badp
 
3:23 PM
@OrigamiRobot Re-read what I was replying to. =]
@fredley It's not.
You guys all think I'm retarded and immature and I'm not.
More hate stars.
 
@GnomeSlice Stop acting that way then
 
@fbueckert Congratulations!
2
:P
 
@badp lol
 
@GnomeSlice If you want to behave seriously, behave like a serious person.
 
@fredley I try.
 
3:24 PM
@kalina I'm perfectly happy to live in a world where I get to just remove @Wipqozn's ownership because others re-add him.
 
@badp Now I feel even more left out D':
 
I'm not as smart as you guys and I say a lot of dumb things.
 
@badp ok cool
 
@GnomeSlice Stop telling me what to read or I'll flag you.
 
@GnomeSlice Then say less things
 
3:24 PM
@OrigamiRobot ...Excuse me?
 
@fredley At least you're not a repless little peon like me.
 
@winterswift who are you, exactly?
 
@winterswift You gained almost 500 rep in 2 days.
 
See, I can't remove @Wipqozn's access if he isn't readded from last time
 
@winterswift Yeah, who let you in?
 
3:25 PM
@kalina A repless peon, going by the earlier statement.
 
@badp true story
 
@GnomeSlice @kalina has a challenger
 
@GraceNote logical
 
@badp Exactly! And where's the fun in not removing my ownership for kicks?
 
Suddenly, I've been cornered.
 
3:25 PM
This is what I'm talking about, you guys don't give a crap about anything I say, you just star it because it's 'funny'.
 
@fredley meh I cba with rep capping this year, I tried too hard last year
 
Actually, it's quite clear, @winterswift if @kalina's sockpuppet
 
Heck, that's just boring. Life should be filled with whimsy!
 
@Wipqozn Uh, owners can do kicks? I'd love to remove your ownership for kicks.
 
@winterswift It's okay, we don't bite.
 
3:26 PM
that hat thing over christmas killed my will to post hundreds of meaningless questions and answers
 
@badp MOD ABUSE
 
In reality, I came over to gaming.SE, said, "Gee, this looks alright," answered a few things about FTL, and...yeah.
 
@badp 1. IF serious, no, we can't perform kicks, but we can move messages. 2. If joking, you kids.
 
@winterswift Hooray!

Q: How does The Bee work on multi-projectile weapons?

Ben BrockaI know The Bee was nerfed to limit it's (insane) effectiveness when used with multi-projectile weapons. I've heard conflicting reports on how this is implemented though; I've heard that damage is always spread evenly across all "pellets" from a single shot, rather than applied once per pellet (as...

Q: Problem with Razer DeathAdder 2013

Tuan Anh TranSometimes, the cursor moves itself to the edges of the screen. I have to lift the mouse and put it down and then it works again. I have tried cleaning the sensor at the bottom; the only problem left is the mouse mat( unnamed; cheapo one and rather small). Could the mat causes this kind of proble...

 
3:26 PM
@winterswift We have to keep the insanity somewhere
or it'll spill all over the site
 
@winterswift well we are the friendliest stackexchange site
 
@winterswift FTL is a pretty fantastic game.
 
sometimes it bursts into meta, but it's okay.
 
everybody here is slightly crazy
 
@Wipqozn awwww
 
3:27 PM
@badp I was wondering where you kept the messy parts.
 
@winterswift meta
 
@winterswift You're swimming in them. Have fun
 
all of the truly messy stuff is buried deep in chat
 
@Wipqozn kicking is pretty useless except to annoy people anyway, it's not a kickban and doesn't stop one from coming right back into the room
 
Good thing I have lots of free time.
 
3:29 PM
@BenBrocka Yeah, it is pretty disappointing. Plus you can't kick mods. :(
 
Really?
well boo
 
Yep, no kickwars.
balpha thought of everything!
 
user15026
Hurraaaaaaay I am saved from @badp and his kicking tyranny
 
Hey there's an "invite this user" button. That should be on the main site profile...
 
Well, you can still just fly over to their house and kick them.
 
3:30 PM
@AshleyNunn I probably can still refresh your page
 
user15026
@gracenote that is a lot of work though.
 
@AshleyNunn Most people ride vehicles rather than flapping their arms fast enough to create lift. I bet it's a lot less work that way.
 
@winterswift Holy cow, you have almost 500 in 2 days!
How did you do that??
 
@GnomeSlice for the record, I don't hate you at all
 
@GraceNote Vehicles tend to not work very well when oceans are involved in the trip.
Unless you mean flying vehicles.
 
3:31 PM
@badp She said 'fly'.
She/he, sorry.
 
@PicnicButton As I was telling everyone else, I came and answered a few questions about FTL, and apparently I'm good at it.
 
@badp Planes are vehicles.
As are jets, helicopters, and trebuchets.
 
@GraceNote I guess they technically are.
 
@winterswift That's more rep than I've earned in 44 days...
 
user15026
@gracenote think I could trebuchet to @badp and kick him?
 
3:32 PM
I've made a huge mistake...anyone got a level 50 Sand Hawk in Borderlands 2?
 
@GraceNote Trebuchets are just as much of a vehicle as cannons are
 
@PicnicButton he got an association bonus in there as well
 
@BenBrocka If you gave one to me then yes
 
@kalina Still...
 
@badp Have you played Secret of Mana?
 
3:33 PM
@PicnicButton I blame you for being inactive, it's your fault
alternative, blame @badp
 
@badp lol. It's a DLC gun. And I threw it away, but it's apparently great with The Bee for boss farming
Wonder if my Mechro can still get it...
 
@AshleyNunn I trust your library instincts to know how to construct an appropriately built one to accomplish this task. For better or for worse.
 
@BenBrocka You can still dupe DLC guns, right?
 
user15026
@gracenote that is a dangerous amount of trust. Hey, unrelated, anyone wanna be my trebuchet test subject?
 
I'd be surprised if none of the guns you duped me were from a DLC
 
3:34 PM
@badp Yes, but I'd need to find someone with the gun (or who hasn't completed the mission) but has the DLC
 
@kalina I'm not active, but I'm not inactive. =[
 
Also, I could have sworn this was correct:

A: How to find your character's total DPS in torchlight 2?

Picnic ButtonIf you press J to bring up the Arcane Statistics panel, you can see all kinds of useful, and detailed information about your character. It contains information on things like your resistances, your hit chance, your calculated damage per hit (not sure about actual 'DPS'), attack speed, your regen...

 
@AshleyNunn Siege weaponry is something that should always be encouraged. I have no problems in placing trust with its construction. I am a piece of artillery, after all.
 
I'm pretty sure none of them were. The DLC 1 guns weren't that great. And the Torgue ones are only okay (not that I have many)
 
user15026
3:35 PM
@gracenote that is fair enough. :)
 
FAE
 
@FAE huh
 
I do find it a little amusing that I got 145 rep simply by clarifying an ingame tooltip for @ender.
 
@PicnicButton who says it isn't?
 
"Poke me" surprisingly absent
 
FAE
3:36 PM
@BenBrocka They were in Cracker Barrel.
 
user15026
@FAE oh how conversation hearts have changed.....
 
FAE
@AshleyNunn I felt so old... :(
 
@winterswift this happens when people don't read tooltips
 
@AshleyNunn I bet they still taste like colored chaulk
 
also it's an FTL question and pretty much everybody on here played FTL
 
3:36 PM
@kalina According to him, he had but didn't understand it. I'm not sure how it's difficult to understand, but...sure.
 
@kalina I done haven't!
 
user15026
@BenBrocka more than likely. Worst candy ever.
 
@winterswift you got 145 rep for it, no need to complain
@GraceNote you should
 
@kalina The asker, didn't he?
 
You need to make a successful pitch.
 
3:37 PM
@badp Great. You gave me useless permissions.
 
It doesn't contain my total DPS. For damage related numbers it just shows all other variables I could see by hovering over weapons, so basically it's not contain any extra information. It's just everything in one place. — Gajoo Jan 8 at 21:22
 
@fbueckert The day I go raving mad crazy and make this room moderators-only you'll still have access!
THAT DAY MIGHT BE CLOSER THAN YOU THINK!
 
@PicnicButton screenshots with big red circles do wonders for "you're wrong" moments
 
@badp If you go crazy, you'll probably revoke the access regardless.
 
Whats this about me understanding something @winter?
 
3:38 PM
@kalina That might take a while.
 
@ender Just the tooltip about autofire.
 
@fbueckert That would be the sane thing to do if I really did want to make the room mods-only
 
@fbueckert @badp I am unsure what you mean by the future tense usage of "when I go"
you're already crazy
this is a place for crazy people
3
 
but am I crazy enough for that mad feat?
 
@badp no you just lack courage currently
 
user15026
3:39 PM
@kalina that explains why I fit in so well
 
@kalina Entropy. Leaving is a forgone conclusion. The only decision to make is when, and how many bridges to burn on your way out.
 
@kalina additional madness will fix that
 
Jan 10 at 13:09, by OrigamiRobot
@kalina Everyone is strange on The Bridge
 
incidentally, it's 23 days until I'm no longer a teenager
I hope you got cake
 
@fbueckert You're not allowed to burn this Bridge. It's cozy here.
 
3:41 PM
I didn't get cake when I was no longer a teenager
 
madness? THIS IS SERVERFAU-wait, no it's not. THIS IS ARQADE.
 
@badp you were born 30
 
Seriously you guys make us at ServerFault sound sane.
 
@kalina My cake is independent of your age.
 
@GraceNote Sidenote: Atelier Ayesha.
 
3:42 PM
@OrigamiRobot take a wild guess at what my age will be if I cease to be a teenager in 23 days
 
@kalina Most people here stop getting called teenagers after 16
 
@fbueckert Quite
 
@YiJiang'sEvilClone yes but pretty much everybody here is >20
 
Where do you people hang out aside from here?
 
@kalina I'm 20. =]
 
3:42 PM
@kalina ahem
 
@GraceNote There's a European release date, but I can't seem to find a North American one.
 
all these old people like @fbueckert and @OrigamiRobot
 
@kalina What does that have to do with anything?
 
@fbueckert Might not exist yet.
 
@YiJiang'sEvilClone "pretty much everybody"
 
3:43 PM
@kalina I'm also not >20.
 
There were a lot more sub-20s in the past, in here. I don't know how much the number has changed since then, though.
 
Turned up at a meetup for HTML5 developers. I was the youngest there.
 
FAE
@GraceNote I miss Kevin Y!
 
@GraceNote obviously they got scared away
 
@kalina I was going to say something, but then my lofty age reminded me that not all battles need to be fought.
 
3:44 PM
@fbueckert how does it feel being >30?
 
@kalina Wow, you really DO think I'm old.
I'm <30.
 
@fbueckert I know you are, but if you tell somebody in their 20s that they're over 30 they always have that immediate 'WTF' reaction
 
@kalina They do?
 
he just did it
you're a robot, you have no feelings
 
@fbueckert many could learn from this statement.
 
3:46 PM
@kalina So @fbueckert doing something constitutes everyone and always? Data accepted.
Everyone always dances.
 
@OrigamiRobot yes they do, humans love dancing
 
@OrigamiRobot And wears suits, and drinks wine.
 
@fbueckert *looks at self* Oh no, I'm not everyone! What should I do?
 
@YiJiang'sEvilClone Revel in your uniqueness.
 
Everyone was always going to say something, but then their lofty age reminded them that not all battles need to be fought.
 
3:47 PM
Because we will be coming for you shortly.
 
@fbueckert But if I'm not everyone, then obviously I'm noone!
I don't exist!
 
@YiJiang'sEvilClone There there. You will be everyone shortly.
 
Everyone will always be coming for @YiJiang'sEvilClone shortly.
 
Shh. Just let it happen.
 
eugh, I had a minor brain malfunction where I nearly submitted a question intended for movies&tv to arqade
 
3:50 PM
@Ender Are you sure Engi is the plural of Engi?
 
'Engi'?
 
is currently experiencing an emergency existential crisis. Please try again later.
2
 
I'm reasonably sure, in the way someone who has no proof is.
It just sounds proper, if that makes sense.
Engis?
Encheese?
Na, Engi.
We are Engi.
They are Engi.
Then all the Engi went away.
 
I like to play as Engie, but not in MvM
 
They are Engi according to FTL's text, IIRC.
 
3:54 PM
:P
 
@badp Wrong game, I think.
 
@Ender I'm not arguing one way or another, but you should make it consistent.
 
I hadn't seen the second instance of Engis
 
Well, I'm off for the night.
 
we are the engi, existence as you know it is over. we will add your biological and technological distinctiveness to our own. we have ship wide med bays. resistance is futile.
 
3:56 PM
Back in several hours, I'm guessing.

Q: Mikael's Crucible stopping effects

Jonny BDoes Mikael's crucible stop suppresses as well, when used? It wasn't in the description of the item, but almost every other cc is.

 
@YiJiang'sEvilClone In case of non-existence, eat some pancakes. They will help you cope.
 
boarding is also futile with that ship wide medbay
 
This needs a few more close votes. We've determined it's not specific to a game.
 
@fbueckert I don't wanna.
 
3:58 PM
@kalina Marshal says close! Don't make me put you in the stockade!
 
@fbueckert I am 50 helpful flags away from matching your marshal status
 
@fbueckert But it only happens when he plays games.
 
Today's life lesson: NEVER surrender your crew, to slavers.
 
What a name.
And what a history asking quality questions.
 
3:59 PM
somebody likes minecraft for sure
that should be grounds for having your account deleted
 
@kalina uh?
 
@StrixVaria I'll take him over JimThio ANY day.
 
Also, The Dream of the Blood Moon looks very interesting.
