Why did it fail? You can just ban mibbit if you like on the channel :/
I've used Mibbit as my primary client for a year. I take offense at your blanket statements about the "type of users that use mibbit".
- ankhmoop 17y agoWhy did it fail? You can just ban mibbit if you like on the channel :/ We didn't want to ban an entire service! Unfortunately, it wound up being the easiest way -- hence, our attempt to avoid doing so failed. I've used Mibbit as my primary client for a year. I take offense at your blanket statements about the "type of users that use mibbit". You are an outlier. The "type of users that use mibbit" were consistently abusive, difficult to deal with, and ultimately detrimental to our communities.
- axod 17y agoI'm not an outlier, and I have quite a lot of data on the users of Mibbit. The vast majority are not abusive or detrimental to any community.
- ankhmoop 17y agoThat was not my experience, but you and I probably have differing opinions of "detrimental", and I'm not sure how you would correlate abuse or "community detriment" with your data. We tend to be patient with individuals (even semi-abusive ones) before resorting to crude methods such as banning.
