@WheatWizard /cheer :)

Here's a link to the Teacher's Lounge with a bit more info in the chatter if you want to take a look. chat.stackexchange.com/transcript/message/67842970#67842970

Hey all - checking to see if you'd be interested in having chat.stackexchange.com/rooms/240/the-nineteenth-byte featured as a recommended room for beginners/new users on the Stack Exchange chat landing page in the future (no changes to requirements to participate)

I'm always curious, what time zones are folks in? Central here (UTC -6)

It really is. ;)

@Lundin Same! Well, second language and that was a billion years ago it seems like (late 80s). :)

@Lundin Had to go look it up, but I recognize that tune. Very cool. And I double checked, the Savatage song (very different tone, LOL) is actually called Hall of the Mountain King. Got confused because the chorus says "In the hall..." Thanks for the added info :)

Random side note - anytime someone mentions trolls, I always think of that song, In the Halls of the Mountain King by Savatage. I don't think the word "troll" ever gets said it in, but I still think of that song, regardless haha

@TwineeeTheZeldaWizard As I mentioned in a chat message yesterday, "I'd tell ya, but then I'd have to... I kid! For real though, I won't give away all the details (that just helps those that want to abuse the system), but the short version is no image links should auto-render from chat users with under 20 rep and made changes to our backend staff notification system. Other stuff too, but that's the stuff I can share at the moment." ;)

@TwineeeTheZeldaWizard Minimum reputation for this room and the Stack Overflow Lobby is still 1. Dropping it even down to 2 would have only allowed an additional 5% of site members access.

Hahahaha. Alright, I'm running away for the day folks. Have a great night (or day, depending on timezone). And play nice so we can leave the room open this time, haha. See ya all tomorrow! :)

Your profile image is the exact look my cat gives me every morning, waiting for his food hahaha

Heya @Ginger

@TwineeeTheZeldaWizard Just to be sure I answer the right question, what's the "limit of 2" you're referring to?

@HenryWHHackv3.0 Never say never! The reality is that's a decision that will be made in later phases of the experiment. Good request though :)

@HenryWHHackv3.0 I'd tell ya, but then I'd have to... I kid! For real though, I won't give away all the details (that just helps those that want to abuse the system), but the short version is no image links should auto-render from chat users with under 20 rep and made changes to our backend staff notification system. Other stuff too, but that's the stuff I can share at the moment.

Welcome to those that have trickled in before then. Nice to see ya :)

We are indeed live again! I'll update the MSE post in a few minutes.

Hi folks. The rooms will be temporarily frozen while we work on some additional background safeguards. I'll update the MSE post and this room when they're unfrozen. Thanks!

Thanks for the freeze, @Mast

Hopping off for a bit, but I'll be back later. Have fun folks and see ya soon :)

@TwineeeTheZeldaWizard The bot route is certainly possible. If that's the case though, I think we'd end the experiment ;)

@HenryWHHackv3.0 Because I was slow, LOL. :)

We're live! :)

I popped in here when I received the ticket. As noted within the ticket, this matter has been passed on to our Trust & Safety team for review.
