User was shown to antagonize the culture of some Irish users despite being corrected and asked not to. User was kicked once after failing to follow an op order to drop the conversation. They then proceeded to continue the discussion by directly messaging the other users involved. They were notified in 17 to not act in this manner. User re-entered 19, whereupon during the discussion of the Irish language the user continued to disregard any corrections and proceeded to behave obtusely. Kicked and banned for 24 hours as a result.
[20:14:53] <Kaiserwulf> There are VERY few people who really speak that variety of gaelic anymore. It's pretty much dead to modern society, but you can find it in villages in Ireland still.
[20:15:10] <Kaiserwulf> Now and then you might meet a linguist who knows, though
[20:15:33] <Kaiserwulf> "plug time" is a phrase that evokes frightening memories

[20:20:38] <CuteGirl> It’s on the national curriculum
[20:20:52] <CuteGirl> Maybe like, don’t speak to whole cultures you know nothing about as a rule lmfao
[20:21:11] <CuteGirl> Top: do you want help?
[20:21:23] <Kaiserwulf> CuteGirl Calm down, please; I was repeating whom I previously believed was a reliable source.
[20:21:32] <CuteGirl> Xeno_Baby: joke works better for Scots Gaelic
[20:22:11] <Kaiserwulf> First I'm going to look up the Irish curriculum, and then if I see you're right, I'm gonna ask Aunt Eileen what the hell is up with that.
[20:22:15] <CuteGirl> Kaiserwulf: I am calm, don’t tell me to be calm :)
[20:22:16] <BlackWing> Xeno_Baby, I think it works better if you lose the "r" all together

[20:22:47] <Dr_Kens> Cyvstvi: Pizza or bagels
[20:22:51] <Cyvstvi> If that helps elucidate anything.

[20:23:41] <CelesteKara> Mars: I have another post pretty much ready
[20:23:43] <CelesteKara> So
[20:23:43] <Cyvstvi> They eat lobster up there, don't they?

[20:23:57] <CelesteKara> Mars: Also an idea for a different tale
[20:23:58] <CuteGirl> Kaiserwulf: you told everyone a language I’m fluent in is a dead language and no one knows it outside specific villages, when every child in the country learns it
[20:24:06] <Kaiserwulf> If none of us could repeat what we had heard from someone else, shit, I don't think we talk about anything
[20:24:12] <Cyvstvi> I mean, the lobster will end up eating them instead, but hey-ho.
[20:24:14] <Dr_Kens> Cyvstvi: Speaking as someone who grew up around there, no. It's not associated with NYC
[20:24:22] <CelesteKara> Mars: There is 0 universe where you hit +1k before me :P

[20:24:26] <MalyceGraves> Kaiserwulf: CuteGirl Ok, this isn't going to end up going anywhere good.
[20:24:28] <MalyceGraves> Enough
[20:24:30] <Cyvstvi> Like the general region.
[20:24:31] <CuteGirl> You’ve also not actually believed me, your literal answer was “wow my aunt can’t be wrong. Better google it”
[20:24:32] <Dr_Kens> Cyvstvi: No, still not

2021-03-23 20:27:05 MalyceGraves: Kaiserwulf: You aren't banned, you may return to 19
2021-03-23 20:27:18 MalyceGraves: But when an operator says enough is enough, drop the topic
2021-03-23 20:28:51 Dr_Kens: Kaiserwulf: Please do not continue to contact users after you were explicitly told not to
2021-03-23 20:28:56 Kaiserwulf: Pardon, I didn't even look up while I was typing
2021-03-23 20:29:04 Dr_Kens: That is not an excuse.
2021-03-23 20:29:40 Dr_Kens: Do not do either action again.
2021-03-23 20:29:46 Kaiserwulf: I'm not concerned whether it sounds like an acceptable excuse; I just didn't want you to think I deliberately didn't care.
2021-03-23 20:30:01 Kaiserwulf: I'm responsible; I don't argue that
2021-03-23 20:30:50 Dr_Kens: You continued to message them directly after being kicked from 19
2021-03-23 20:31:03 Dr_Kens: That is not the correct course of action.
2021-03-23 20:31:41 Dr_Kens: You can either cease the continued discussion with them or face a 24 hour ban.
2021-03-23 20:31:51 Dr_Kens: You may remain in 19, that is not closed off
2021-03-23 20:32:00 Dr_Kens: You are free to rejoin at any time.
2021-03-23 20:32:08 Dr_Kens: Understood?
2021-03-23 20:32:35 Kaiserwulf: Yes; I hadn't rejoined because I was typing to CuteGirl when I saw this channel lighting up.
2021-03-23 20:32:55 Dr_Kens: Ok, thank you.
2021-03-23 20:34:26 Kaiserwulf: I would otherwise consider it ideal to attempt a defuse a misunderstanding rather than let it fester, but if she's told you that she's harassed, I understand; if someone won't listen, that's going to have to be fine.
2021-03-23 20:34:50 Dr_Kens: In what universe is continuing to pursue someone who has cleared dropped the topic a good idea?
2021-03-23 20:35:00 Dr_Kens: That is escalating an issue.
2021-03-23 20:35:18 Dr_Kens: In any case, drop it and move on.
2021-03-23 20:35:33 Dr_Kens: Nothing good will come of continuing to attempt to rationalize your actions.
2021-03-23 20:41:29 Kaiserwulf: OK, so what *do* you normally do here when trying to clear the air on a disagreement? Is there some kind of mediation or something?
2021-03-23 20:42:43 Kaiserwulf: The culture here does appear to be not what I am used to, so I'm seeking the protocol
2021-03-23 20:44:34 Kaiserwulf: Like, if I rejoin the channel, is there some kind of grudge I need toe around now?
2021-03-23 20:45:02 Dr_Kens: No, disagreements are generally dropped. Especially in this case where there was an op order.
2021-03-23 20:45:17 Kaiserwulf: Pardon, a what?
2021-03-23 20:45:25 Kaiserwulf: "operations order"?
2021-03-23 20:45:26 Dr_Kens: "op order"?
2021-03-23 20:45:29 Dr_Kens: No, operator.
2021-03-23 20:45:44 Dr_Kens: All channels have chat staff. Half-operators, operators, and admins.
2021-03-23 20:46:00 Dr_Kens: We are there to moderate the channel.

2021-03-23 20:46:32 Dr_Kens: Thank you Dora!
2021-03-23 20:46:49 Dr_Kens: Kaiserwulf: Please read through that guide and familiarize yourself with the rules, function, and general ettiquette.
2021-03-23 20:46:57 Kaiserwulf: Yeah I did see that; the operator nomenclature is unfamiliar, is all
2021-03-23 20:49:03 Dr_Kens: So no, you will not face any retribution upon returning to 19.
2021-03-23 20:51:29 Kaiserwulf: I'm less concerned with systematic reprisal than an air of resentment; that was the fastest I've ever seen anyone start to get emotional from me repeating benign — albeit incorrect — knowledge.
2021-03-23 20:51:57 Dr_Kens: You're continuing to bring it up.
2021-03-23 20:52:04 Dr_Kens: Myself and Mal have already said to drop the topic and move on.
2021-03-23 20:52:20 Kaiserwulf: Oh you mean regarding the discussion with yourselves
2021-03-23 20:52:26 MalyceGraves: The topic in general
2021-03-23 20:54:00 MalyceGraves: You make great strides to comport yourself in an eloquent and verbose manner, but you seem particularly insistent on refusing to move past certain difficulties. Debating the particulars of our rules, no matter how politely, can eventually end up sounding like a bad faith argument barked from the mouth of a sealion. I recognize your attempts to pacify a situation that you may or may not have inadvertently created, but it has moved long past that
2021-03-23 20:54:00 MalyceGraves: at this point
2021-03-23 20:56:17 Kaiserwulf: "moved long past that" — you're saying the situation got worse?
2021-03-23 20:56:31 Dr_Kens: No, Kaiserwulf, we've all dropped it.
2021-03-23 20:56:35 Dr_Kens: Everyone involved has dropped it.
2021-03-23 20:56:43 Dr_Kens: At this point you are the only one still bringing it up.
2021-03-23 20:57:47 Kaiserwulf: I just got a long post from graves about it; I think I'm missing some of his/her meaning, but if that's intended to be the last word, I will learn to accept that.
2021-03-23 20:59:38 Dr_Kens: Then that's it. Just drop it, all mention of the topic, and move on. There is no need to seek additional clarification or discussion on any part of the topic. Any further mention of it will result in a 24 hour ban for continuing to ignore operator requests.
2021-03-23 20:59:50 Dr_Kens: I'm not going to say that again.

[21:36:15] <WarFang> and for anyone curious, here's a tl;dr from a more dark retelling of the grey lady myth: i'd heard (by word of mouth; oral tradition is kinda strong in my family) that the then-lady of the gracehill manor killed her children and then herself, and they were buried in a field in unmarked graves

[21:47:51] <CuteGirl> And therefore tried to erase all Irish heritage and stuff
[21:47:53] <WarFang> northern irish people's mentalities is all about distancing ourselves from the irish because we're superior; this is a mentality i absolutely dont describe to and work to unlearn
[21:48:21] <WarFang> some cultural elements survived and is maintained in northern irish culture; but a lot of it has been forcibly removed
[21:48:32] <WarFang> we're both and neither
[21:48:34] <CuteGirl> Irish culture is fighting against the systematic erasure of your culture over a few hundred years
[21:49:11] <CuteGirl> Northern Irish culture is “????” With some orange men for zest
[21:49:20] <Tropinano> recently i read a folk story about witches entering a ladies home and just spinning wool for fun
[21:49:28] <Kaiserwulf> The Brits apparently got pretty damn close too. I just finished a study I started reading earlier by this evening on the state of preservation of Irish heritage and language.
[21:49:29] <Tropinano> northern irish culture is derry girls
[21:49:47] <WarFang> i find a simple irony in the fact that northern irish people (and the brits) worked so hard to extinguish irish culture but a handful of it persists, from our language to our folklore to oral tradition and to superstitions
[21:49:54] <WarFang> ullans loans words from gaeilge
[21:49:59] <WarFang> not many, but some
[21:50:02] <WarFang> and irish-english
[21:50:36] <Kaiserwulf> Yeah I've long been aware English spoken in Ireland has many words in use from gaeilge
[21:50:43] <CuteGirl> WarFang: boycott is the best piece of Irish culture
[21:50:45] <Tropinano> the irish language is doing alot better than it was in the 20th century from what ive seen
[21:50:59] <CuteGirl> We said fuck you to a British landlord and now it’s the word for that kind of thing

[21:52:18] <Kaiserwulf> Gaeltacht — that's a word I didn't know before today
[21:52:23] <CuteGirl> But there’s places that have the fluency to qualify, just not the history

[21:52:32] <Tropinano> i wish i could go to the gaeltacht 😔

[21:59:40] <WarFang> for some reason here in northern ireland, ullans stole the irish word for potato and shimmied some letters around
[21:59:50] <BlackWing> What'd it become?
[21:59:55] <WarFang> (our word is pruta; think the irish singular is prata?)
[22:00:01] <WarFang> (sans fadas cos lazy)

[22:01:41] <WarFang> but the plural for pruta is prutas following english rather than pra[']tai[']

[22:40:55] <WarFang> finding the ullans-english dictionary was just hugely nostalgia cause i grew up passively hearing so much ullans in my household/family

[22:41:02] <Tropinano> you can tell whos a culchie by their accent

[22:41:17] <WarFang> was freaky
[22:41:28] <CuteGirl> basircuser: we have accents within counties lol
[22:41:35] <basircuser> is village like 1,000 people in there?
[22:41:37] <WarFang> we have accents within townships
[22:41:45] <Kaiserwulf> There are places in the US that are like that too
[22:41:46] <WarFang> /boroughs
[22:41:54] <Tropinano> fuck theres accents within streets tbh
[22:41:54] <Kaiserwulf> Yeah called that
[22:41:57] <BlackWing> I thought village were towns with churches
[22:42:00] <basircuser> or is it a 100,000 people village
[22:42:04] <BlackWing> Or were towns villages with churches?
[22:42:15] <Kaiserwulf> I don't believe there's a technical distinction for villages
[22:42:31] <WarFang> i consider a village to be a population exceeding 100 and has a shop
[22:42:37] <WarFang> tbh
[22:42:40] <Sonderance> Are we getting into platonic definitions again? A horse is a chair.
[22:42:43] <Kaiserwulf> All I reckon "village" to be is "a non-urban settlement" smaller than a town

[22:55:32] <CuteGirl> Northern Ireland is defintely anti memetic
[22:55:40] <WarFang> i mean we shouldnt exist to be fair
[22:55:43] <Kaiserwulf> In any event I don't think it's helpful to constantly correct differences in the dialect between English speakers on this side of the pond and that; what's important is that we're talking about the same thing.

[22:58:30] <LordofLaugh> Woah the US might be getting it's 51rst state, 44 senators backing DC statehood so far
[22:58:40] <drblackbox> Fucking finally.
[22:58:42] <basircuser> wooo!
[22:58:43] <LordofLaugh> Puerto rico next
[22:58:46] <BlackWing> Maybe
[22:58:52] <stormfallen> LordofLaugh: any of them Republicans
[22:58:55] <basircuser> the capital of the US is legally in the US now!
[22:58:57] <drblackbox> Wait shit now L58 won't make sense.
[22:59:02] <stormfallen> Because IIRC statehood requires 2/3 majority
[22:59:12] <BlackWing> basircuser, Yes and No
[22:59:23] <Kaiserwulf> Unless Manchin and Sinema are on board for PR statehood, it ain't a done deal
[22:59:25] <BlackWing> From what I've read, the Capital will be shrunk while the City of DC will be the State
[22:59:33] <drblackbox> Now that I think about it I'm not sure how republicans would feel about US statehood.
[22:59:46] <drblackbox> It's arguably bad for states rights, I guess?
[22:59:54] <Dr_Kens> Kaiserwulf: IN light of the upscroll, I'm enacting the 24 hour ban. You were disrespectful and did not act appropriately. You may appeal this in 17.
[22:59:56] <LordofLaugh> stormfallen: obviously not yet, though I imagine that even if this doesn't go through the sentiment will linger. It's more of a when thing imo

[23:01:40] <LordofLaugh> I mean it's not hard to make a state, we did make 37 of em already
[23:01:55] <stormfallen> drblackbox: Republicans don't want it for the sole reason that DC is two guaranteed Democrat senators
[23:02:11] <drblackbox> Yeah ofc it's something stupid like that.
[23:02:39] <BlackWing> PR would be too, right? Or is that a toss-up?
[23:02:47] <LordofLaugh> It's political suicide if republicans even remotely side with democrats nowadays
[23:02:56] <stormfallen> Most likely Dem also from PR.
[23:03:11] <drblackbox> That being said I do /kinda/ get the ideas behind making it not a state.
[23:03:16] <ManyMeats> PR is probably republican
[23:03:31] <ManyMeats> very, very high rate of catholic conservatives
[23:03:33] <gerrymanderbassist> Puerto Rico would be a swing state with a slight blue lean
[23:03:36] <CuteGirl> Why ISNT a territory of the us a state
[23:03:39] <Kufat> stormfallen, you might be thinking of the 2/3 majority required for Congress to approve a treaty. Since DC is already US territory, none of the special rules requiring a supermajority would apply.
[23:03:39] <CuteGirl> That’s whack like
[23:03:55] <ManyMeats> PR enjoys a ton of benefits and we ask almost nothing of them
[23:04:01] <ManyMeats> It's a pretty good deal for PR to not be a state
[23:04:01] <gerrymanderbassist> socially leaning conservative but fiscally definitely to the left
[23:04:14] <drblackbox> CuteGirl Red tape, mostly.
[23:04:26] <CuteGirl> drblackbox: makes sense
[23:04:28] <gerrymanderbassist> ManyMeats: We still tax them
[23:04:51] <ManyMeats> And they get a large amount of aid in return, yes
[23:04:57] <LordofLaugh> Its alwaus crazy to me how cuba is so close to Florida and then puerto rico is directly behind it
[23:05:19] <stormfallen> Except when they get hit by a hurricane
