<JoshYaBoiV2> Hello?
20:14 <rattles> hi
20:14 got a question for staff?
20:14
<JoshYaBoiV2> How are you
20:15 Well I mean I just made this account. My last account can still be accessed but I cant open a new sandbox because my email type has been blocked for spam
20:15 I came to ask if there was a way I could retrieve my old drafts
20:15 <rattles> i mean you could always just copy-paste all the text
20:16 but im not sure about getting back into an old account
20:16
<JoshYaBoiV2> I can still log into my old account
20:16 <barredowl> or go into "+ Options" and clicking "Page Source" to get the exact coding
20:16
<JoshYaBoiV2> But I cant access sandbox anymore
20:16 <barredowl> what is your wikidot username?
20:17
<JoshYaBoiV2> It was JoshYaBoi
20:17 <barredowl> hmm
20:18 are you getting any specific messages when trying to access the sandbox?
20:19 ⇐ rattles quit (selt.tar|979233diu#selt.tar|979233diu) Quit: cya later
20:19
<JoshYaBoiV2> It just says that I cant access the sandbox because theyve blocked my email type
20:19 like gmail or outlook for example
20:19 Because of spam bots
20:19
<OCuin> Have you tried accessing it while logged out?
20:20
<JoshYaBoiV2> No
20:20 I can try access it on this account actually
20:21 I found it
20:21 The sacred texts
20:21
<OCuin> Like barredowl said, if you can get in, you can copy your draft w/ wikidot code by accessing the page source
20:21 Glad to hear it
20:22
<JoshYaBoiV2> I wrote this when I was like 12
20:22 <barredowl> hmm
20:22 ⇐ •Conwell quit (~ten.tsacmoc.ap.1dsh.BB04254B-CRInys|tibbiM#ten.tsacmoc.ap.1dsh.BB04254B-CRInys|tibbiM) Quit: https://mibbit.com Online IRC Client
20:22 <barredowl> well glad you got to sort it out
20:23 ↔ synGuest939 popped in
20:24
<JoshYaBoiV2> So My account has not been verified yet
20:24 Once It is verified I will be able to freely write and publish SCPs?
20:24
<OCuin> Your wikidot application? It takes a few days
20:24 Yes
20:24 <barredowl> verified? you mean accepted for membership?
20:24
<JoshYaBoiV2> yea
20:24 Fancy language
20:24 <barredowl> ok
20:24
<JoshYaBoiV2> alright
20:25 I appreciate the help
20:25 Where can I have an idea criticized?
20:25 Id liek an opinion
20:25 like*
20:25

20:25
<JoshYaBoiV2> Alright

20:28 <barredowl> there won't have to be much waiting tbh
20:28
<JoshYaBoiV2> Alright. Thanks again for the help.
20:28 Cya
20:28 ⇐ •Dexanote and JoshYaBoiV2 quit
20:30
<OCuin> So I'm not sure if this is the best place to put this, but if that kid was telling the truth about writing the draft at 12, they're underage
20:30 Their sandbox was created and last edited in 2018

Their sandbox: http://scp-sandbox-3.wikidot.com/joshyaboi If they were telling the truth when they said "<JoshYaBoiV2> I wrote this when I was like 12" then they are likely underage.

Chat ban enacted for 4 years, since they will not be eligible to join the chat until after we are 18+.

EDIT: corrected spelling/formatting.

2020-05-21 19:42:11 JoshYaBoi: Well I send an application
2020-05-21 19:42:16 JoshYaBoi: And the wait time is 3 days isnt it?
2020-05-21 19:42:28 DrTARS: Around 3 days yup
2020-05-21 19:42:34 JoshYaBoi: Alright
2020-05-21 19:42:43 JoshYaBoi: Its been a bit more than 3 days I was just wondering
2020-05-21 19:43:21 DrTARS: They are manually approved by admins so they may have just not gotten to yours yet
2020-05-21 19:43:34 JoshYaBoi: I understand, Im just eager to start writing
2020-05-21 19:43:34 Tuomey: Hello, Reseacher Do you have a question for staff?
2020-05-21 19:43:52 Tuomey: JoshYaBoi: you can use the sandbox and chatrooms before your application is approved
2020-05-21 19:44:00 JoshYaBoi: Is there a place where I can discuss ideas?
2020-05-21 19:44:24 JoshYaBoi: Yea I just wanted some thoughts on my ideas
2020-05-21 19:44:33 JoshYaBoi: Which chat do I hae to locate?
2020-05-21 19:44:52 Tuomey: pardon me, it appears you have been banned from chat for behaviour indistinguishable from underage
2020-05-21 19:45:05 JoshYaBoi: ?
2020-05-21 19:45:26 Tuomey: http://05command.wikidot.com/forum/t-13334791
2020-05-21 19:46:26 JoshYaBoi: ..
2020-05-21 19:46:26 JoshYaBoi: …
2020-05-21 19:46:54 JoshYaBoi: Its 15+ isnt it
2020-05-21 19:46:58 JoshYaBoi: Im 15+ now
2020-05-21 19:48:04 AbsentmindedNihilist: JoshYaBoi: well, here's thething
2020-05-21 19:48:22 AbsentmindedNihilist: JoshYaBoi: it's not about being physically under the age. it's about acting the age we expect of our users.
2020-05-21 19:48:54 AbsentmindedNihilist: and so you'll need to explain to us why you should be unbanned with that in mind.
2020-05-21 19:49:57 JoshYaBoi: I stopped writing on that account because my work was not up to standard
2020-05-21 19:50:12 JoshYaBoi: I decided to come back now as I am more mature and capable of writing more exciting things
2020-05-21 19:50:29 JoshYaBoi: I was also immature
2020-05-21 19:50:30 JoshYaBoi: excitable
2020-05-21 19:50:39 JoshYaBoi: and quite frankly, stupid.
2020-05-21 19:53:54 AbsentmindedNihilist: JoshYaBoi: all right. we're also looking not just for writing content, but for behavior.
2020-05-21 19:54:12 AbsentmindedNihilist: you're sure you'll be able to hold yourself to that standard?
2020-05-21 19:54:31 JoshYaBoi: Of course.
2020-05-21 19:54:43 JoshYaBoi: I always act in a sensible manner.
2020-05-21 19:56:07 AbsentmindedNihilist: okay.
2020-05-21 19:56:09 AbsentmindedNihilist: ban lifted.
2020-05-21 19:56:43 Mars: So, contest question
2020-05-21 19:57:06 MalyceGraves: JoshYaBoi: hang on a moment while we actually remove the ban
2020-05-21 19:57:24 AbsentmindedNihilist: MalyceGraves: sorry thanks was about to come post that
2020-05-21 19:57:34 Mars: Actually nvm I answered my own question.

Appeal successful, ban retracted.

Noting that their first activity after getting back onto the site was to post a full draft (not a sandbox link) in the Draft Critique Forum.

http://www.scp-wiki.net/forum/t-13380108/my-first-scp

I posted a copypasta response directing the user to the appropriate forum threads.
