Request for Low-level Op on IRC
I, Spirit-of-HALO, would like to request for Low-Op on #halopedia. Pertaining to Grievous's reason, I'm usually there when there is no one Opped. I would like to better the IRC channel by, at least, keeping order and helping other users. I have asked RelentlessRecusant on this term and said he would discuss with me. Thank-you for your time.

I'm sorry. I know you try your hardest and I see that, but IRC is a medium where communication is absolutely a must for moderation - some phrases that seem offensive might not be, sarcasm may, at times, be difficult to detect, and the oddities of the particular language mean that you might miss something that needed to be caught or caught something that should've been let go. Your limitations with English make me unwilling to support your candidacy. --forgottenlord 02:42, 27 June 2008 (UTC)

Although Forgottenlord may be correct, we always have a user or four that could tell whether or not operator actions are needed, and alert him. So I see no reason why not to allow him op status. Lieutenant  Vatz  "My COM Network""My Work" 01:31, 22 July 2008 (UTC)

Blemo
I am requesting for low-level again, if I already didn't have them removed, because my last operatorship was only a trial for my RfA. Since I cancelled my RfA, I'm pretty sure that my trial is up, I would like to "renew" it. I have been on the IRC for nearly a year, had three months of experience of moderating #halopedia, and I am very fluent around the channel. I am very well aware of the changes in IRC policies and I frequent the IRC every single day I find a computer. Please take this into consideration.

I'm pretty sick of having to sit and watch spammers, flamers and noobs piss people off while theres no ops on. As anybody who frequenst IRC now will tell ya, I've been pretty mature as of late, I haven't been kicked for months, I've been a good little boy.

Though today was the last straw, a invasion of noobs and spammers this afternoon, with them forcing actual halopedians who were chatting in there off, I had to ride it out as no ops or janitors were on.

I'll tentatively support this candidacy on a short leash. I'd be more comfortable if your fellow members of HaloFanon indicate that there have been a minimal number of problems on that wiki. My biggest concern is your temper which I find is rather short and I've seen you crave kicks when it was merely someone annoying you.

I am requesting to be a low-level Op on #Halopeida, I am normally on at times that there is not any Ops on, and I am a constant user on the IRC. I also believe that some of the stuff that happens while an Op is away is outrageous, or just the stuff that some Ops let go is amazing. I am also going to be Homeschooled next year so I can be on for most of the day. H3Fear Me, or else... 01:14, 22 July 2008 (UTC)

I'm on the fence on this one. On one hand: You are mature during situations with spammers. IE. Warning then attempting to contact an admin and not joining in with the spammer. And on the other hand: You have a bad history with arguments with users and OPs. I'm not going to act holier than thou, (I've had my spats with the way the OPs ran the IRC many times) but that may affect the final decision of your opping.

I'm also on the fence for this, I agree with Grievs, you are mature and serious enough to handle the responsibilities, but there have been several occasions were you have lost control to the "shenanigans" of the channel. All in all I have to say that I support your request. Lieutenant  Vatz  "My COM Network""My Work" 01:36, 22 July 2008 (UTC)

Weak Oppose I don't deny that people can change and I haven't been on IRC enough to be able to evaluate your behavior now - those are far from the reasons for my vote. My vote is because I was last active on IRC from late April through late May and I recall incidents from that time period. Two months to turn over a new leaf is not, IMO, sufficient time to be satisfied with someone being given ops. We don't tend to give ops to users who've been here less than 3 months (I know, I got it within 1 but that's beside the point), I'm not sure we should be giving it to someone who's got a history and has had less than 3 months of good behavior. In a few months, I'd have no problem with this nomination if several users and ops indicate your nose is still clean. --forgottenlord 17:07, 22 July 2008 (UTC)

That is probably a problem with your computer - an anti-virus program conflicting or bad settings for the IRC client. I'd recommend looking for an IRC support group as that's probably well beyond the experience of most of the users here --forgottenlord 20:26, 23 July 2008 (UTC)

Delta-269
I've been talking about this for a while, and I'm finally doing it. I'm requesting operator status on #halopedia. I have experience with the operator commands on the channels #gruntcorner and my personal channel, ##deltahangar. I'm on IRC most of the day on most days, I'll only not be on if I go on a trip, or if my computer explodes (unlikely).

 * I only do that because you can get kind of annoying on the channel, and, not to point any fingers, I barely kick/remove you anymore. Also, #gruntcorner has no rules for kicking or banning. I haven't kicked you in a month. So please, reconsider your vote :) <font color="Olive">SPARTAN-G156 <font color="Red">COM Channel <font color="MidnightBlue">Past Battles <font color="Black">My History 02:10, 14 September 2008 (UTC)


 * Just because GruntCorner doesn't have any formal rules about kicking doesn't mean that there isn't a limit to what is considered appropriate nor does that mean that actions within GC shouldn't be counted against you. In truth, one of the largest problems we've had is attitude from our ops and admins in the past.  A place like GruntCorner shows us what sort of attitude you bring to those kinds of powers.  CR, who owns the channel, rarely (if ever) plays with the kick button - it is very rare that you are kicked and unable to figure out why.  Hearing the word "barely" sets off plenty of alarm bells and makes me wonder just how many of those kicks are justified....and how many of them are just you either goofing off or letting a temper get to you. --forgottenlord 07:16, 14 September 2008 (UTC)


 * It's true I act immature on #gruntcorner, but when I'm on #halopedia I'm as mature as I can be all the time. And, the only times I kick are at times where I'm either very annoyed be the person, if they're flooding. Recently, in the past month, I've rarely kicked anyone as goofing off. <font color="Olive">SPARTAN-G156 <font color="Red">COM Channel <font color="MidnightBlue">Past Battles <font color="Black">My History


 * Um, fl......#gruntcorner has no rules, but yes there's a limit to what is appropriate. To be fairly honest, CR and myself kick a lot on that channel, clearly when you're not on, which is a lot now, so for you to state that CR rarely kicks is a bit unfair considering you're not there most of the time. Even Simon and Blemo occasionally do it. Just because we act like that in that channel doesn't mean we're like that in all channels. I'm sure Delta knows how and when to appropriately kick someone in #Halopedia.  Ha <font color="Red">lo <font color="Black">Du <font color="Red">de 17:36, 14 September 2008 (UTC)


 * My point is: while there might be things on GC that aren't ok on HP, it is concerning to see someone use that as a justification. No, I would never test a user on his ability to moderate on GC, but someone who acts like a dick on GC I would be fairly hesitant to support for ops on HP.  That said, I don't vote unless I see clear evidence of either a person having good moderation skills or poor member of the community - rather I raise questions about arguments and reasoning made. --forgottenlord 14:07, 16 September 2008 (UTC)

Just because people use mibbit doesn't mean that person should be kicked. It's not their fault if they have lag.

I have never kicked anyone due to them having Mibbit. That is fairly idiotic to suggest. I simply, on a channel with no rules, banned Mibbit, then unbanned it the next morning. I would have unbanned sooner, but my parents made me go to bed. You were the one unnecessarily kicking me for "flooding" which never occurred. As for the "banning me for a few days", I never ban anyone on #gruntcorner for more than a few hours, they only last longer due to me having to leave for a certain amount of time. <font color="Olive">SPARTAN-G156 <font color="Red">COM Channel <font color="MidnightBlue">Past Battles <font color="Black">My History 12:32, 14 September 2008 (UTC)


 * Ahem....I only kicked you because you were flooding. In fact, you filled the whole channel with some joke. I (and the others on the channel at the time) warned you several times before I kicked you the first time. Then, you continued and I kicked you again. And that repeated several times. The last time I kicked you was because of lag. Even though you stopped, my computer kept spouting things several minutes late (because of it being on mibbit). Therefore, I kicked you.

 * Actually I was not flooding, your IRC client, Mibbit, was lagging severely. For me, and everyone else, I had stopped saying that log five minutes before you kicking me. I had no control over your clients lag, so warnings were useless. Also, screaming "STAWP" several times is NOT a warning.

 * *Cough* Private Message, anyone? In addition, my five kicks were because you rejoined after you kept on flooding the channel. For the first time, I said Stop spamming.

What happened in the past on #gruntcorner is irrelevant to this anyway. This is a request on an official Wikia channel with rules. #gruntcorner is CR and HD's personal channel, which has NO rules.

 * If how he acts on GC is going to affect the possibility of his op status in #halopedia, then you might as well take away my ops and James' ops too, cos you've seen how both me and him act in the channel. James with his crimping/animal camouflage (XD) stuff. Then you have me going on about whatever, like calling the Easter Bunny a bastard for not giving me chocolate on Easter. Yet both of us can control ourselves in certain channels and what not and act how we should, and it seems like Delta can control himself too, we just have our moments.

Firstly: 'alot' is 'a lot'. Secondly: No, I'm just naturally not a trusting person. I'm not going to forget about that incident for a long time, and there are also my other reasons. --Darth tom (talk)

Lovemuffin
I, Lovemuffin, am requesting for the position of low-level op on the #halopedia IRC channel. The first time I requested to be an op, I was denied due to lack of experience on the IRC channel. However, over the past months, I have become a frequent member of the IRC, helping contribute a social unity and equilibrium between users. I can incorporate my experience from Halopedia, being a Rollback User and a Seasoned Veteran, into the IRC as I will cease others from committing offensive and ill-mannered behavior. I feel some users that can confirm my frequent use of the IRC are CommanderTony, Delta-269, ChurchReborn, HaloDude, Specops306, Halopediaman, Spirit-of-HALO, Stigma-231, Mlj91, Ghost Sangheili, Blemo, Subtank, and other various users. I find that even though there might be an abundance of overall users, those users are commonly not on all the time or some might be away from their computers. I hope that you can realize that I can be a valuable asset to the Halopedia Channel if I become an Op.

Thank You --  <font color="RoyalBlue">Lovemuffin  ••• <font color="DimGray"> Talk undefined <font color="Navy"> Edit Count undefined Contributions undefined 02:43, 16 September 2008 (UTC)

--=[ You didn't mention me! However, might I add that you may want to be more...active, as in replying to conversations and all. However, I do acknowledge that your presence was felt, and thus, deserving of Op. Another question: are you experienced in the ways of the Commands? That is, do you know how to ban, kick, unban, etc? <font color="#100000">Ri <font color="#600000">ck <font color="#A80000">rol <font color="#D00000">ler <font color="#404040">Gen <font color="#909090">eral <font color="#C0C0C0">ÌṂρεσάḹόґ MyVictories [[Image:Cavalier_achievement.gif|28px]] 14:23, 16 September 2008 (UTC)

- Things like this aren't exactly acceptable in #halopedia...Users may find this disturbing or offensive, so only read it if you feel it necessary.

 * Though this is disturbing, (many instances of humor are) I would have immediately ceased if someone complained that the jokes were disturbing them. No one told me to stop and/or lay off. I figured the users that were online at that moment were mature enough to handle the usage of diction in the messaging. Also, a message personally to you, Halodude, before you judge my character, is that ChurchReborn found those jokes very humorous and funny. As for the use of swear words, there have been countless times where ops and admins have used coarse language such as that. --  <font color="RoyalBlue">Lovemuffin  [[Image:Dancing_master_chief.gif|30px]] ••• <font color="DimGray"> Talk undefined <font color="Navy"> Edit Count undefined Contributions undefined 01:15, 17 September 2008 (UTC)

 * Lovemuffin, when I obtained those logs, I checked the times and CR was afk at that particular time, I checked my logs because you claim she laughed (noted from scrollback, date, time and checked against my own logs and IRC data from that day - CR was afk), and Delta did tell you to stop (Logs show that). Also, whether or not people laughed or didn't complain, doesn't mean you can do that. An op could abuse their powers and repeatedly kick someone, and everyone may find it funny. Doesn't mean it's acceptable.  Ha <font color="Red">lo <font color="Black">Du <font color="Red">de 21:38, 17 September 2008 (UTC)

 * Umm what? I didn't even laugh, much less was I even there at the moment. I found it sick and wrong as it could possibly be, disturbing and perverted. That's not even the full log, cos I was the one who gave them to James anyways a long time ago. When I did get back, someone did complain to me about what you were saying and unfortunately, I was never able to get your hostmask until maybe a month later, but by then I figured I couldn't ban you for that. And whether or not you thought they were mature enough or not, it wasn't allowed in the channel at all already as per channel rules. Yeah ops do use swear words, but not to describe putting your dick into a baby's mouth or whatever. And Delta did tell you to stop

- Entire joke category is considered to be questionably funny based upon how comfortable individuals are with the subject matter. Add on that half of those jokes were pedophilia in nature.... I don't think there's a way you can claim you didn't know that they easily could've been offensive to a good segment of the community. That's just plain common sense - a trait I'd hope any moderator to have. However, at the very baseline, we expect moderators to know the rules, uphold the rules, and LEAD BY EXAMPLE in following the rules and those jokes are technically against the rules - Inappropriate Content, subitems 4, 5, 6, and 10. --forgottenlord 03:14, 19 September 2008 (UTC)

Spirit-of-HALO for OP
I would like to run again for Op (Low status that is). Since I started Homeschooling, I have lots of time to be on there. And yes, I'm probably the only one there that can remember the rules (at some points), many people do. I "may appear" immature, but I'm just there to have fun, help, and what not. When it comes to rules, I'm "Hard". (Whew, I said it..)   Halo's Legionair    ( "Contact" ) 20:20, 18 September 2008 (UTC)

Half---I've seen you a few times in between every couple of days or so and you have no instance of immature behavior that I know of. That being said, I would like you to be a bit more active to gain my fully pledged support.

Why do you want to be an op? I only ask because you volunteered 3 months ago when you had barely started on IRC, you recently had a closed RfA over rules violations, and then you jump over here to request op access. As such, I'm wondering what your motivations are for moving into all of these high places.--forgottenlord 03:19, 19 September 2008 (UTC)

I see your concern forgottenlord, but the RFA issue is being resolved, and you cant ask for that position, someone nominated me. Now about the Op status, I've been going on that for months now, so for the IRC, its been more than 3 months. And my motivation is to insure security for Halopedia and the channel, not to be a tyrant, but to help. It is hard to understands someones attitude or actions over the internet, but I swear to you, I want to help. Regards Halo's Legionair   ( "Contact" ) 15:57, 19 September 2008 (UTC) I haven't seen him act in a way meriting of Op status, he's rarely on as much as some of the other ops, and he barely even has a grasp of IRC know how and knowledge. Most people who use CGI:IRC know very little; a massive generalisation, I know, and I'm not opposing this just because he uses CGI, but because he's not on enough, isn't operator material, and doesn't have a sufficient grasp of IRC concepts. Oh, and it's definitely unnecessary with all the other people running. Delta's by far the best candidate, even though I don't feel he's worthy of a support. --Darth tom (talk)
