Moved, but does anyone have logs of the IP address? Unfortunately Xiao accidentally the entire banlist, and we had Mackenzie add them all back, so I can't just look at the list and pick out Echo's most recent ban.
EDIT: Also, holy shit. (And, log moved to the proper subforum.)
EDITx2: Thank you to Echo for trolling for logs and Scantron for ponying some up, which follow:
(12:58:40 PM) std [~ta.refrus.eiv.E19F2B81-CRInys|evad#ta.refrus.eiv.E19F2B81-CRInys|evad] entered the room.
(12:58:50 PM) DreadLindwyrm: Fridges?
(12:59:00 PM) DreadLindwyrm: Are we stuffing peopl in fridges again?
(12:59:01 PM) Mackenzie: >.>
(12:59:02 PM) DocLowell: Anyway. It's a good kind of trolled. I love it.
(12:59:02 PM) DreadLindwyrm: :DD
(12:59:07 PM) DocLowell: It was good.
(12:59:13 PM) ***Mackenzie sighs at all the newbies with "Doc" or "Dr" in their name
(12:59:35 PM) ***Scantron thinks that the staffers doing it are setting the bad precedent <.<
(12:59:39 PM) ***Scantron >.>
(12:59:55 PM) DocLowell: I'm not exactly a newbie. I've been on the site for years.
(12:59:56 PM) ***Mackenzie notes that the only staff member still doing that is Mann
(1:00:17 PM) Scantron: well, on their wikidot names, we have bright, clef, gears, and mann doing it
(1:00:24 PM) Mackenzie: Yeah, well
(1:00:30 PM) ***Mackenzie bites Scantron. Hard.
(1:00:35 PM) DocLowell: And I don't use the doctor on my wikidot name! So there!
(1:00:47 PM) DocLowell: Can I recruit some help brainstorming?
(1:00:48 PM) Scantron: hot
(1:00:58 PM) Mackenzie: Lowell: What's up?
(1:01:16 PM) DocLowell: I'm trying to think of all the SCPs that are variants of statues.
(1:01:23 PM) Mackenzie: .tag statue
(1:01:23 PM) Scantron: .tag statue
(1:01:23 PM) Nala: Mackenzie: I found 27 pages with the specified tag, including SCP-089 (+145), SCP-1036 (+113), SCP-050 (+103), SCP-1011 (+101), and SCP-650 (+94).
(1:01:25 PM) Nala: Scantron: I found 27 pages with the specified tag, including SCP-089 (+145), SCP-1036 (+113), SCP-050 (+103), SCP-1011 (+101), and SCP-650 (+94).
(1:01:25 PM) Mackenzie: .tag sculpture
(1:01:25 PM) Nala: Mackenzie: I found 18 pages with the specified tag, including SCP-173 (+671), SCP-1050 (+180), SCP-173-J (+131), SCP-1800 (+92), and SCP-1814 (+77).
(1:01:34 PM) DocLowell: WELL THEN.
(1:01:39 PM) Scantron: lol
(1:01:44 PM) DocLowell: Awesome.
(1:01:44 PM) Mackenzie: Continue…? :p
(1:01:46 PM) DocLowell: Thank you!
(1:01:48 PM) Scantron: what's the difference between the statue and sculpture tags?
(1:01:55 PM) Mackenzie: .def statue
(1:01:56 PM) Nala: Mackenzie: statue (noun) - A three-dimensional form or likeness sculpted, modeled, carved, or cast in material such as stone, clay, wood, or bronze.
(1:02:00 PM) Mackenzie: that's false.
(1:02:04 PM) Mackenzie: the actual art definition
(1:02:16 PM) Mackenzie: a statue is a full-body sculpture of a human or animal subject
(1:02:25 PM) Mackenzie: statue supersedes sculpture
(1:02:55 PM) YourImaginaryFriend left the room (quit: Ping timeout).
(1:02:58 PM) Scantron: M'kay.
(1:03:11 PM) DocLowell: So the damnably awesome original SCP is a statue that kills you if you stop looking at it.
(1:03:15 PM) Mackenzie: nope
(1:03:16 PM) Scantron: Sculpture.
(1:03:19 PM) Mackenzie: it's a sculpture
(1:03:20 PM) DocLowell: FFF
(1:03:21 PM) DocLowell: yes.
(1:03:23 PM) DocLowell: Yes it is.
(1:03:24 PM) Scantron: hehehe
(1:03:25 PM) Mackenzie: because it's not a sculpture of a human or animal subject
(1:03:35 PM) Scantron: Mackenzie: Tale idea. They find what it's a statue /of/.
(1:03:52 PM) ***Mackenzie shrugs
(1:03:53 PM) DocLowell: So the damnably awesome original SCP is a sculpture that kills you if you stop looking at it. -fixed
(1:03:55 PM) Scantron: just imagine like a real-life, organic 173. deaugh.
Doc_Burns DocLowell Doctopus
(1:03:59 PM) DocLowell: and that is an amazing idea, Scantron
(1:03:59 PM) Scantron: DocLowell: yes
(1:04:22 PM) DocLowell: So, I want to look at the other statues/sculptures to see if any of the others fit this idea
(1:04:47 PM) DocLowell: but the idea is to write an article on a new scp that suggests that a number of the different statue/sculpture SCPs are interconnected
(1:04:47 PM) Silber [~ten.sndscps.sloop.F052C61A-CRInys|criordna#ten.sndscps.sloop.F052C61A-CRInys|criordna] entered the room.
(1:04:49 PM) DocLowell: and evolving.
(1:05:12 PM) DocLowell: or at least improving. Evolving is a poor word choice.
(1:05:54 PM) Scantron: Sounds difficult to pull off.
(1:06:04 PM) DocLowell: I imagine it will be.
(1:06:16 PM) Jukse: It hits the hivemind trope pretty hard.
(1:06:27 PM) std: well, 173 *could* be a statue
(1:06:27 PM) Jukse: Also, they'd be animated statues?
(1:06:28 PM) Mackenzie: Uhhh.
(1:06:30 PM) Mackenzie: Question.
(1:06:32 PM) std: of *something*
(1:06:38 PM) Mackenzie: Do you plan to crosslink all the existing SCPs, such as 173?
(1:06:48 PM) PixelWarrior [~PI.836070E8.92C14F89.AD6D876B|criigc#PI.836070E8.92C14F89.AD6D876B|criigc] entered the room.
(1:06:51 PM) std: something inhuman and malignant
(1:07:21 PM) Dexa left the room (quit: Quit: bbl).
(1:07:22 PM) PixelWarrior: std: I was just talking about you
(1:07:31 PM) std: somewhere out there is a world of 173ish things
(1:07:43 PM) PixelWarrior: how the zombie virus in an rp i'm helping with is like you
(1:07:49 PM) Magnus: ….what are we talking about?
(1:07:55 PM) ***Mackenzie prods DocLowell
(1:07:57 PM) ***Magnus came back to see crosslinking.
(1:08:01 PM) std: statues and sculptures
(1:08:11 PM) std: crosslinking and pedantry
(1:08:16 PM) DocLowell: I don't know, Mackenzie, I'm leery of doing so. I'm hoping more to suggest the idea that these SCP objects are either a non-organic species whose individual members are better learning how to kill, or else that there is someone out there making these things and he is getting better at "programming" them to be lethal.
(1:08:28 PM) Magnus: =|
(1:08:35 PM) Mackenzie: See, that's the problem.
(1:08:45 PM) vezaz: lethality, always lethality
(1:08:48 PM) Mackenzie: Your idea is fundamentally trying to link existing SCPs, most if not all of which aren't yours.
(1:08:49 PM) Magnus: Are you referring to /all/ scp objects?
(1:08:55 PM) Mackenzie: That's a /really/ thin line to walk.
(1:08:57 PM) std: the clinical voice is pedantic by nature
(1:08:58 PM) vezaz: why never "better at painting" or "better at ballroom dancing"
(1:09:06 PM) vezaz: or SOMETHING different than "It killz better lil"
(1:09:07 PM) DocLowell: What? No, not all. And there's no actual evidence proving a link.
(1:09:14 PM) std: but it often describes things of wonder and terror
(1:09:19 PM) Magnus: Because 1) That's dumb. 2) Not all SCPs are lethal. 3) 99% of them are in NO WAY related. 4) Don't screw with stuff you have no history with.
(1:09:21 PM) Mackenzie: [12:04] <DocLowell> but the idea is to write an article on a new scp that suggests that a number of the different statue/sculpture SCPs are interconnected
(1:09:24 PM) std: "awesome" in the real sense of the word
(1:09:25 PM) Mackenzie: What is this suppose to mean, then?
(1:09:43 PM) Silber: .sea soho
(1:09:44 PM) Nala: Silber: The Sculptor of SoHo (rating: +67, 23 revisions) - http://www.scp-wiki.net/scp-602
(1:09:48 PM) DocLowell: I don't want to nail anything down.
(1:09:54 PM) std: "Science does not remove the terror of the gods."
(1:09:57 PM) Scantron: The Sculptor of SoHo is awesome.
(1:10:00 PM) std: - J.R. "Bob" Dobbs
(1:10:17 PM) Mackenzie: :I
(1:10:18 PM) DocLowell: It might not remove the terror of the gods, but it can remove the horror of the unknown in our articles.
(1:10:18 PM) PixelWarrior: You know what's interesting?
(1:10:22 PM) segoli [~PI.92A02685.2C528E27.932D51E7|iloges#PI.92A02685.2C528E27.932D51E7|iloges] entered the room.
(1:10:26 PM) Mackenzie: Myeh. Sandbox it, then.
(1:10:28 PM) Mackenzie: See how you do.
(1:10:32 PM) DocLowell: Okay.
(1:10:36 PM) Mackenzie: But the idea sounds really damn iffy.
(1:10:48 PM) Mackenzie: (Use the sandbox site, not a sandbox on the main site.)
(1:10:51 PM) PixelWarrior: There are equal amount of people with voice and op in #wandererslibrary except there are 3 people with op, and only one person with voice
(1:11:16 PM) Mackenzie: We have too many long-time absentees come back and get a slap on the wrist for using a mainsite sandbox >.>
(1:12:29 PM) Itazu [~PI.071D8FA3.D3A8ADF6.FD8DEC3B|uzatI#PI.071D8FA3.D3A8ADF6.FD8DEC3B|uzatI] entered the room.
(1:12:40 PM) PixelWarrior: It's kind of weird
(1:13:08 PM) PixelWarrior: Maybe it's part of the person with voice's plan to take over the library
(1:14:49 PM) ***std still wants to find a clever, easy-to-understand way to deconstruct the phrase "memetic agent" and related
(1:15:01 PM) std: 'cause it really *is* kind of dumb
(1:15:13 PM) DreadLindwyrm: It's a person working for the foundation who preys on your mind.
(1:15:17 PM) DreadLindwyrm: :|
(1:15:42 PM) DreadLindwyrm: Although that would be an amusing SCP in and of itself.
(1:15:42 PM) std: it's used to mean "scary mind control thing"
(1:15:56 PM) std: or "medusa"
(1:15:58 PM) Mackenzie: memetic agents—- WHAT
(1:15:58 PM) Mackenzie: no.
(1:16:00 PM) DreadLindwyrm: Yeah. It's something that messes with your mind.
(1:16:01 PM) ***Mackenzie ahem
(1:16:04 PM) Mackenzie: no, no, NO.
(1:16:06 PM) Mackenzie: Shut up.
(1:16:08 PM) Mackenzie: Let me explain this >:I
(1:16:16 PM) std: yes?
(1:16:17 PM) DreadLindwyrm: Evidentally my :| was ignored…
(1:16:19 PM) std: do tell
(1:16:34 PM) Mackenzie: "A memetic agent is best described as "infectious information". It is a piece of data in a subject's mind that has an anomalous effect on that subject's physical or mental state that is spread when anyone else becomes aware of the same information. All memetic agents are cognitohazards as you can't be exposed to information without observing it somehow, but not all cognitohazards are memetic."
(1:16:46 PM) Tanhony: i dont know pianos
(1:16:47 PM) std: so…
(1:16:51 PM) std: let me summarize
(1:16:57 PM) Tanhony: do you call it pressing the keys or playing the keys when you are doing the piano stuff
(1:16:59 PM) std: "All memetic agents are cognitohazards"
(1:17:02 PM) std: whoo
(1:17:14 PM) std: sorry, but this is *stupid*
(1:17:20 PM) BlackWing [~ten.labolgcbs.omslts.deepsthgil.4729A564-CRInys|alliztahc#ten.labolgcbs.omslts.deepsthgil.4729A564-CRInys|alliztahc] entered the room.
(1:17:24 PM) Scantron: so's your mom
(1:17:35 PM) std: it's a horrid cliche
(1:17:36 PM) Mackenzie: Do you know what a meme is?
(1:17:36 PM) Silber: Tanhony, the clinical term is "tickling the ivories".
(1:17:47 PM) Tanhony: this is no joke silber
(1:17:50 PM) Tanhony: this is deadly serious
(1:17:53 PM) Tanhony: deadly
(1:17:54 PM) std: a meme is a partially discredited theory about the transfer of ideas
(1:17:54 PM) Tanhony: serious
(1:17:57 PM) Mackenzie: And no, it's not a horrible cliche. You're just not understanding it.
(1:18:02 PM) Mackenzie: No.
(1:18:11 PM) DreadLindwyrm: Perhaps because you didn't explain, you quoted.
(1:18:15 PM) Mackenzie: The modern usage of the term "meme".
(1:18:22 PM) Tanhony: can't we all just be friends :(
(1:18:26 PM) std: trying to equate the information exchange of intelligent beings communicating with the genetic information exchange of sexual reproduction
(1:18:26 PM) Scantron: no
(1:18:29 PM) std: or mutation
(1:18:30 PM) Mackenzie: ….. no
(1:18:33 PM) Scantron: fuck you tanhony, you don't know shit about shite :3
(1:18:34 PM) ***Mackenzie facepalms
(1:18:46 PM) Tanhony: ooh look at the big man scantron
(1:19:00 PM) Tanhony: you think youre so tough with your birds and your scps and your name with the s at the start
(1:19:14 PM) PixelWarrior: Echo and I gave a speech to Dr_Gears about the difference between cognitohazard and memetic
(1:19:16 PM) std: nah, seriously, it's about as bad as "humanoid SCP as rejected X-man"
(1:19:21 PM) Mackenzie: A meme as it is used today is a unit of information that has additional context outside of the information that it provides by itself.
(1:19:32 PM) Mackenzie: In other words, a unit of information that triggers context.
(1:19:33 PM) Scantron: std: Like if I said shark punching centre
(1:19:34 PM) Mackenzie: For example.
(1:19:43 PM) Mackenzie: If I said "The goggles, they do nothing!"
(1:19:45 PM) Mackenzie: What do you think of?
(1:19:49 PM) std: this definition of meme is BULLSHIT
(1:19:51 PM) std: wrong
(1:19:53 PM) Gargus [ude.uan.tenser.tan.AF87CDA5-CRInys|tibbiM#ude.uan.tenser.tan.AF87CDA5-CRInys|tibbiM] entered the room.
(1:19:53 PM) std: no wait
(1:19:55 PM) Gargus: Guys
(1:19:56 PM) Scantron: no u
(1:19:57 PM) std: not even wrong
(1:19:58 PM) Gargus: Guess what
(1:20:01 PM) std: useless
(1:20:02 PM) Jukse: +m, please.
(1:20:06 PM) Gargus: Waxx can't tell the difference between dwarves and hobbits.
(1:20:20 PM) Silber: That fucker.
(1:20:20 PM) vezaz: gargus there's a difference between dwarves and hobbits?
(1:20:21 PM) Gargus: Let us mock him mercilessly for this when he returns.
(1:20:22 PM) vezaz: whaaaat?
(1:20:26 PM) PixelWarrior: :|
(1:20:34 PM) Heiden [~moc.bbdnoyeb.A8F3ECCD-CRInys|nedieH#moc.bbdnoyeb.A8F3ECCD-CRInys|nedieH] entered the room.
(1:20:44 PM) Tanhony: and then there's heiden. that son of a bitch
(1:20:49 PM) Gargus: Of course there are
(1:20:51 PM) Tanhony: oh hi heiden
(1:20:54 PM) Gargus: One always has beards
(1:20:56 PM) vezaz: gargus : P
(1:21:01 PM) Mackenzie: Are you going to let me finish explaining how "memetic" is used on site?
(1:21:03 PM) Silber: That cock-snarfing chowderhead.
(1:21:05 PM) Mackenzie: Or are you going to continue being a jackass?
(1:21:07 PM) Gargus: The other always sucks unless they're protaganists in a Tolkein book.
(1:21:08 PM) EchoFourDelta: Hmmm
(1:21:11 PM) EchoFourDelta: Time to get the fuck out
(1:21:14 PM) mode (+b *!*@synIRC-18B2F91E.vie.surfer.at) by EchoFourDelta
(1:21:14 PM) std left the room (Kicked by EchoFourDelta (EchoFourDelta)).
I'm not sure if I'm understanding correctly; their reference to sexually transmitted stuff was… well, they were talking about memetics, and they were also correct. That is what memetics is a metaphor for: genetics. Nothing beyond the pale there. Yeah, they were also off-base and acted like a jackass, but… Eh. Not sure if permaban is warranted. (Though we really should require them to change their name. Jesus.)
Either way, IP is: *!*@synIRC-18B2F91E.vie.surfer.at
I wasn't around for what got him banned, but I had this guy pegged as trouble for the same reasons Echo dropped the hammer on him and already had given him a warning about laying off the sex scip ideas. I'm fine with the ban standing.

oh lordy
I didn't realize this wasn't the first time he had joined, and in light of that I feel even less insistent on not perma-banning. Whatever works.
Came back.
<std> ah
<Work01> ew.
<FlameShirt> tretter: Mind looking at a partial draft for me?
<std> yup
<Roget> std, I believe you are banned
<std> oh, permanent like?
<Rikks> Roget: std was banned?
<Work01> if he's banned, how is he here?
<Roget> yah
<Roget> Evading
<Roget> and there we go
Whether you like it or not, history is on our side. We will bury you!
As of now.
