I'd be willing to try and merge /tg/ somewhat regularily if Glloyd gives me acces to the repo.
Ahem:
Erro is hardly even a coder.
Here's Rock's version of the story:
<[Rock]> I've been around for most of it.
<[Rock]> Erro disrespected muskets a lot.
<[Rock]> Did whatever he wanted.
<[Rock]> Was pushing hard to become head coder.
<[Rock]> I join the project.
<[Rock]> The bahvior continues.
<[Rock]> Carn joins the project 6 months after I.
<Jalleo> so really I should ask muskets for the start of it?
<[Rock]> They argue.
<[Rock]> No.
<[Rock]> Carn and Erro argue a lot.
<[Rock]> Erro takes it out on muskets and Carn.
<[Rock]> Erro reverts peoples code without asking.
<[Rock]> (Abused his power as a committed on SVN)
<[Rock]> muskets gets tired of his shit when we move to github and just outright bans him.
<[Rock]> He isn't a maintainer.
<[Rock]> He requests maintainer status.
<[Rock]> He is denied.
<[Rock]> He tries once again.
<[Rock]> Denied.
<[Rock]> He threatens the administration.
<[Rock]> He gets a honorary title.
<[Rock]> Fast forward to now.
<[Rock]> AKA you know the rest.
<Jalleo> not much really until aran got bant for the honk stuff
<[Rock]> The very first thing erro asked me to do was to dismantle #coderbus and to create a new channel.
<[Rock]> The FIRST THING when I became head coder.
<Jalleo> really why dismantle #coderbus
<[Rock]> He told me to get RID of mustets and numbers.
<[Rock]> Muskets owns the channel.
<[Rock]> She does a fine job.
<Jalleo> she does nothing and just keeps it running really
Erro got a LOT of shit, but he's not the pure and innocent victim here.
Goofball has made a hypothetical list of coders for a closed-source version of tgstation, but the code is licensed under the GNU GPL license:
When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for them if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it if you want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it in new free programs, and that you know you can do these things.
So he can't. Then again that's entirely hypothetical.
Jalleo is going to host coderforums with a better development process sometime soon.
And honestly, I'm sort of
happy that all the coder boards were deleted. The players are a bunch of spoiled ungrateful smartasses that don't like ANY changes and just fucking moan and moan about how fucking terrible the coders are and boo fucking hoo. Their rants about how we are all terrible annoy the fuck out of me.
Remember that SoS and Sleepingpills are still the server hosts, so nothing changes except for the fact that all the oldfags (best term there is for it) will have to go to a different forum to complain that their favorite exploit got fixed.
