Privacy
I believe there are issues with your implementation. I've posted those here. Kindly, Jon@talk:~$ 19:23, 8 August 2011 (UTC)
- It's unfortunate that you chose to go directly to ANI rather than bringing your specific concerns to me directly. I am now watching the discussion. Ale_Jrbtalk 21:01, 8 August 2011 (UTC)
- Not too unfortunate... I needed a wide spread of opinion on this one. I've removed the thread by private request. I will tell you that it was only after I started adapted the script for use on another WMF wiki, that I discovered the bug. I would suggest please to remove that, and allow the sysops here to do what they volunteered to do. If there is an abuser, they can block. Giving up our IP to useracct correlation is too much oif a price to ask. Respectfully submitted, Jon@talk:~$ 22:58, 8 August 2011 (UTC)
- I meant that your obvious desire to get some form of enforcement demand from ANI means it is now impossible to enter into a reasonable dialogue with you on the subject - whether you feel that is unfortunate is, of course, a matter of opinion. If you have discovered a bug, which I don't think you have, please feel free to report it here or on the igloo talk page. Finally, as a sysop here, I feel I am well acquainted with their abilities - and interfering to prevent abuse of my private server is not one of their abilities. Ale_Jrbtalk 10:23, 9 August 2011 (UTC)
- I won't make it impossible to enter a dialogue if you won't. Perhaps we can put the ANI post behind us? Is there a way to code this so that it does not use a private server... I know the WMF hosts a RC server, if that is what is being utilised. Very kindly, Jon@talk:~$ 15:06, 9 August 2011 (UTC)
