Secondly unlike our other platforms where we have moderator teams per platform traditionally on irc going back 15+ years we have per channel moderation. So while I was appointed a moderator on #opensuse I never had my client setup to join #opensuse-chat, i'd join at times to discuss issues with people but as far as i'm aware since the updated CoC was added no one was actively moderating #opensuse-chat, in fact one thing we seemed to miss was that in the migration from freenode to libera.chat the people who used to have moderator permissions there did not have this restored. I did join #opensuse-chat again once complaints were raised about it specifically I don't know when that was but certainly the initial discussion didn't mention that channel specifically.
Simon, I am afraid I cannot agree with the recollection of events as you describe them above. During the migration to LiberaChat, the folk migrating the various #opensuse channels gave Op rights (+o) directly to people who requested it. In the case of #opensuse-chat, I granted the following person operator privileges when they requested it on May 27 12:52:12 2021 Simotek This is your IRC Nick, is it not? I don't think this is a Jia Tan situation I did not grant +o flags to anyone else on #opensuse-chat I ONLY granted +o flags when people explicitly asked me for them, as I had no record of who moderated our Freenode channels It just isn't true that #opensuse-chat didn't have a moderator..it did. It was you. Since we moved to Libera. During that time, in #opensuse-chat there has been at least: - 120 instances of the word 'fart', 1 instance of the word 'wank', 3 instances of 'bitch', and over 30 instances of various forms of 'puta/puto and pendejos' - mostly by the recently demoted (but still present in all our channels) operator of #opensuse - 32 instances of the word 'fuck' - mostly by previously mentioned demoted op and the person you suggested should become an IRC Op on April 12 2024 in your discussions in that channel - 2 instances of the word 'cunt' - by the person you suggested should become an IRC Op on April 12 2024 These are just the numbers I can get from parsing my local chat buffer, which has also been misbehaving meanwhile, so I'm sure there are many cases I missed.
