Freso: sigyn seems to working excellently, just saw a spamwave hit #sql and a bunch of others but nothing happened here! \o/

More than anything, that just means they didn't show up here. Sigyn hasn't kicked or banned anyone, so we don't really have any measure of her effectiveness.

So, I was thinking (again :P) on some plugin for BrainzBot. Often it seems that a small/informal proposal is brought up in the IRC and people vote on it, discuss a little bit, etc before it's turned into a formal JIRA issue. Would it be a good idea to have BrainzBot handle accumulating the votes and concerns on such propsals?
Leo_Verto: are there any config options for the logging? getting ConnectionError: ('Connection aborted.', error(61, 'Connection refused')) when starting brainzbot

naiveai: Sigyn did kick one spammer from here, but obviously she can't remove them until they've started spamming, so we'll have to endure a few messages before she kicks into effect. (In the last case I noticed, I think the spammer sent 4 messages before getting k-lined.)

Leo_Verto: oddly enough it still works

Freso: is it safe to assume that people connecting to this channel will have clients that support colors?
2018-01-13 01327, 2018
naiveai
or should I just avoid its use in brainzbot plugins
2018-01-13 01303, 2018
Freso
naiveai: It isn't safe to assume anything about people's clients. :) However, sane clients that don't do colour should strip out the IRC colour/formatting codes from received messages.
2018-01-13 01323, 2018
naiveai
Freso: so I can't rely on it being there. hmmm
2018-01-13 01326, 2018
Freso
So I'd say feel free to (tastefully) use colours for BrainzBot.
2018-01-13 01345, 2018
naiveai
Freso: what I was thinking to show users who had voted yes in green and no in red
2018-01-13 01348, 2018
Freso
But use it to enhance the message, not as a message in itself.
2018-01-13 01352, 2018
Freso
Yeah, no.
2018-01-13 01355, 2018
naiveai
Freso: but with no colors it would then be impossible to detect.
2018-01-13 01359, 2018
Freso
Yep.
2018-01-13 01318, 2018
naiveai
Freso: so I could do something like:
2018-01-13 01328, 2018
Freso
You could do "👍: foo, bar, baz; 👎: eggs, spam, sausage"
2018-01-13 01337, 2018

2018-01-13 01333, 2018

Could also work.

cool
2018-01-13 01307, 2018

Keep in mind a way to note "neutral" or abstain votes.
2018-01-13 01313, 2018
naiveai
oh yes
2018-01-13 01325, 2018
naiveai
just a * will do for them I think
2018-01-13 01345, 2018

+Freso, naiveai -xyz, somebody *neutral, people
2018-01-13 01303, 2018

SeemsGood to me
2018-01-13 01352, 2018

preemptively banning people is some next level Minority Report shit
2018-01-13 01355, 2018
KassOtsimine
so yea.
2018-01-13 01352, 2018
KassOtsimine
ooh a way to auto thingy the votes
2018-01-13 01312, 2018
KassOtsimine
make sure that you program in a way to prevent people double voting :P
2018-01-13 01319, 2018
naiveai
oh yeah ofc
2018-01-13 01326, 2018
KassOtsimine
in my experience, atleast here, people double vote because they thing their vote wasn't seen, (atleastthat's why I've accidentally doen it :P) so a bot that auto collects votes will help prevent that atleast :D
2018-01-13 01329, 2018
naiveai
only problem with this syntax is now we can't have concerns
2018-01-13 01340, 2018
KassOtsimine
hmm?
2018-01-13 01343, 2018
KassOtsimine
sure we can
2018-01-13 01349, 2018
naiveai
no, what I mean is
2018-01-13 01354, 2018
KassOtsimine
have pot see pattern "yes, but"
2018-01-13 01354, 2018
naiveai
I was planning to do smth like
2018-01-13 01357, 2018
KassOtsimine
bot*
2018-01-13 01306, 2018
naiveai
!downvoe <proposal_name> <concern>
2018-01-13 01313, 2018
naiveai
s/downvoe/downvote
2018-01-13 01326, 2018
KassOtsimine
and add a * or something (I think * isn't very neutral)
2018-01-13 01342, 2018
KassOtsimine
but that's bikeshedding at this point
2018-01-13 01346, 2018
naiveai
so when we show the result of proposal_name, I need to figure out a way to show those concerns
2018-01-13 01353, 2018
naiveai
KassOtsimine: what would be a more neutral character?
2018-01-13 01357, 2018
KassOtsimine
hmmm
2018-01-13 01313, 2018
KassOtsimine
nothing? if + is for and - is agaisnt?
2018-01-13 01330, 2018
naiveai
well there has to be some indication for people with no colors
2018-01-13 01341, 2018
KassOtsimine
what
2018-01-13 01356, 2018
KassOtsimine
everyone has a colour in my client, i don't thing yo usohudl add any more colours, that will be confusing
2018-01-13 01323, 2018
Freso
KassOtsimine: Not the nick colour but the "vote colour". E.g., if I vote "yes" my "colour" is "yes".
2018-01-13 01342, 2018
KassOtsimine
well that would be "+" then
2018-01-13 01346, 2018
KassOtsimine
and agaisnt is "-"
2018-01-13 01304, 2018
naiveai
Proposal <name> by <some_dude> got these votes:
2018-01-13 01308, 2018
Freso
If there's a question going on and I want to specifically state that I looked at it but I'm neither for or against, what's my "colour" then?
2018-01-13 01315, 2018
Freso
naiveai suggested "*".
2018-01-13 01337, 2018
KassOtsimine
¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I'd say it's neutral? and no vote givrn?
2018-01-13 01354, 2018
Freso
Yes, neutral. But what symbol do you use to show that?
2018-01-13 01355, 2018
KassOtsimine
if someoen "doesnt vote" ther nick shouldn't even be in the list
2018-01-13 01300, 2018
Freso
It should.
2018-01-13 01315, 2018
Freso
Well, no, not if someone doesn't participate in the vote at all.
2018-01-13 01315, 2018
KassOtsimine
so everyone in the list 133 people?
2018-01-13 01329, 2018
KassOtsimine
yo u can eithe vote "no, yes, or neutral
2018-01-13 01335, 2018
naiveai
+hello, world -something:<concern>, someone:<concern> abstain: someone, something
2018-01-13 01342, 2018
Freso
KassOtsimine: Yes. But what symbol would you use for "neutral".
2018-01-13 01346, 2018
Freso
* ?
2018-01-13 01348, 2018
naiveai
^ not sure how to handle long concerns in above
2018-01-13 01300, 2018
naiveai
"abstain" is also a bit long. we need some char
2018-01-13 01307, 2018
KassOtsimine
since you have 3 options: nothing, + and -
2018-01-13 01324, 2018
KassOtsimine
imho, only guys
2018-01-13 01331, 2018
naiveai
KassOtsimine: I would say it's nothing, +, -, and neutral
2018-01-13 01332, 2018
KassOtsimine
imho only, guys
2018-01-13 01355, 2018
KassOtsimine
if yo udon't vote why should you be in the list of votes?
2018-01-13 01356, 2018
Freso
KassOtsimine: So instead of "+Freso, naiveai -xyz, somebody *neutral, people" using "+Freso, naiveai -xyz, somebody neutral, people" would convey that "neutral" and "people" abstained?
2018-01-13 01310, 2018
naiveai
actually that could work
2018-01-13 01316, 2018
Freso
An "abstain
2018-01-13 01325, 2018
Freso
" vote is not a none vote.
2018-01-13 01307, 2018
naiveai
maybe "#"
2018-01-13 01317, 2018
KassOtsimine
i like that for abstain actually
2018-01-13 01321, 2018
Freso
naiveai: I don't think so. Makes it hard to tell that there's something different between "somebody" and "neutral".
2018-01-13 01328, 2018
Freso
* and # both work for me.
2018-01-13 01334, 2018
Freso
As long as there's some symbol.
2018-01-13 01348, 2018
naiveai
well I'll be adding a config option for all those symbols anyway
