[00:09:42] <Ankhanu> What phone/client are you using, mobileghost ?

[00:10:27] <mobileghost> Droid eris

[00:10:34] <Ankhanu> cool

[00:10:55] <mobileghost> Called andchat

[00:10:55] <Ankhanu> I kinda want to test a droid phone

[00:11:18] <Ankhanu> I use Colloquy on my iPhone to connect to Colloquy running at home on my Mac

[00:11:21] <Ankhanu> works nicely

[00:12:04] <Ankhanu> I can make it connect on its own, but logging in to something already connected is better for my use :)

[00:12:59] <Ankhanu> Cell phone IRC is super convenient :)

[05:27:44] <mobileghost> It sure is. Just a bitch to get them to connect sometimes. For me anyways

[05:28:31] <Ankhanu> yeah, definitely

[05:29:45] <Ankhanu> occasionally I'll get notices on my phone of activity happening here... but for whatever reason, the bouncer won't let me connect to my computer. I can connect to the ZNC server I have on my Linux system, or connect directly to IRC with the phone client, but can't connect to the Colloquy bouncer that sent the notification

[05:30:24] <Ankhanu> sometimes clears up with changing the port... sometimes doesn't... sometimes clears up by closing and reopening this client... sometimes doesn't :P

[05:53:32] <mobileghost> Lol yeah

[14:38:00] <Tobias> Oh, he's gone

[14:38:01] <Tobias> >_<

[14:38:08] <Tobias> Pity that <.<

[14:42:07] <Tobias> http://www.frihost.com/forums/vt-115028.html

[14:42:09] <Tobias> Burn o_o

[15:03:32] <Ankhanu> hehe

[15:14:40] <Rvec> I don't get what's so strange about that post?

[15:17:05] <Rvec> I meant the mail, not the post

[15:17:30] <Tobias> You don't use "Mr. Something" in a non-formal context, generally

[15:17:35] <Tobias> Or, titles

[15:17:41] <Tobias> You have "Tobias" or "Lastname"

[15:17:41] <Tobias> :p

[15:17:45] <Tobias> Not even lastname

[15:17:48] <Tobias> "Tobias Lastname"

[15:17:50] <Tobias> Otherwise it's overly formal

[15:17:58] <Tobias> Craigslist != formal

[15:19:50] <Rvec> so he wasn't very good at english?

[15:20:09] <Tobias> No, he was overformalizing :p

[15:20:22] <Tobias> Could be a variety of reasons for that

[15:20:52] <Tobias> If you wanted to be secretive about your identity, you'd probably do what they're doing

[15:21:00] <Tobias> Albeit possibly with a fake name

[15:21:48] <Rvec> Hey .. ,

[15:21:48] <Rvec> I want your printer, can you send it to me?

[15:21:48] <Rvec> regards,

[15:21:48] <Rvec> dave

[15:21:54] <Rvec> you mean like that?

[15:22:26] <Ankhanu> working retail, I have asked people their names and gotten "Mr. Name", or the worst, "Missus (man's name) (last name)"

[15:22:41] <Rvec> lol

[15:27:31] <Tobias> Normally you'd only address people such as teachers or people in significantly higher positions than you as "Mr."

[15:27:34] <Tobias> unless they were clients or something

[15:27:35] <Tobias> :p

[15:27:54] <Tobias> Or parents of your girlfriend and you were trying to make a sophisticated impression

[15:27:55] <Tobias> >_

[15:27:56] <Tobias> >_>

[15:28:37] <Ankhanu> hehe

[15:28:56] <Ankhanu> some people are formal like that with any stranger... but it's rare

[15:29:12] <Ankhanu> of course saying "this lovely item" regarding a printer is a flag

[15:29:20] <Ankhanu> particularly in concert with the formality

[15:29:29] <Tobias> true

[15:30:18] <Tobias> Maybe they're just an old, internet-barely-literate person

[15:30:19] <Tobias> :p

[15:40:16] <Rvec> more likely foreign

[15:40:35] <Rvec> probably from somewhere where it's normal to begin names with mr.

[15:41:35] <Rvec> and using the word lovely because he doesn't know any word that would better describe the printer

[15:43:37] <Tobias> I doubt that

[15:43:51] <Tobias> Foreign, possibly

[15:43:57] <Tobias> but the rest no :p

[15:50:52] <Tobias> http://en.znc.in/wiki/Savebuff#Client_scripts_and_plugins

[15:50:58] <Tobias> That where you got your script, Rvec?

[15:53:41] <Rvec> looks like the same site, but I think it was something else

[15:53:47] <Rvec> not really sure

[15:54:25] <Rvec> ah yes it was the same

[18:02:50] <Tobias> hm?

[18:28:45] <Ankhanu> perhaps

[21:51:50] <Tobias> http://www.frihost.com/forums/vp-952669.html#952669

[21:51:51] <Tobias> O_o

[21:51:58] <Tobias> I think he's mentally retarded O_o

[22:17:56] <Ankhanu> hehe
