# 15:07 tantek we should get points or something for speed ;)
# 15:07 Phae oh. i like that. can we get the bot to keep score?
# 15:08 tantek aaronpk - Loqi feature request - keep track of wiki defense points against spam (per person)
# 15:08 tantek and more points the faster the spam is removed
# 15:09 tantek perhaps have an overall score and a score for the month?

# 15:58 jjenzz fancy meeting u here ;)
# 16:10 hober tantek: did you used to program in pascal?
# 16:11 hober (I'm mucking around with your old polygons-in-CSS, and I've noticed you generally left the last rule's semicolon off, á lapascal)
# 16:14 tobyink In Perl, the last ";" before "}" is optional. In PHP, the last ";" before "?>" is likewise.
# 16:15 tobyink In Javascript they're optional all over the place. Can be as confusing as hell.
# 16:15 tantek hober - yes - pascal was my first "structured" programming language (not counting BASIC)
# 16:16 tantek it's an aesthetic preference - on a single line I tend to leave off the
# 16:17 tantek for multiple lines, where the closing } is on its own line, then I put
# 16:17 hober Yeah, same here (Pascal as first non-BASIC pl)
# 16:18 hober BASIC, then Pascal, then Common Lisp, actually
# 16:19 hober Phae: yeah, Pascal was what they taught at my high school
# 16:19 Phae i thought it was primarily a teaching lang?
# 16:19 hober no way, it was a systems programming language.the classic Mac operating system was written in pascal
# 16:19 Phae i did java and prolog during my degree
# 16:21 hober UCSD did a Pascal impl that was one of the earliest bytecode compilers
# 16:24 Phae nasa TV is good today, btw. spacewalks!
# 16:41 tantek and for extra points you could have Loki keep track *per wiki* :)
# 16:42 tantek I see a spamfighters leaderboard in the making
# 16:43 tantek quick, someone propose a last minute SXSW panel: Gamification and Collaborative Wiki Spam Fighting
# 16:45 Phae i saw a panel up about gamification of web apps
# 16:58 aaronpk so if Loqi notices a message that matches "deleted "[[User:Aulipio ]]": content was spam", he'll go look at the most recent change on page "User:Aulipio" and calculate the time difference?

# 17:27 tantek the undo spamming action could be *either* a delete
# 17:28 tantek of someone who was just (will soon be) blocked
# 17:28 tantek and reverting/deleting their changes gets your *more* points (because that's the more valuable for the community action)
# 17:28 tantek but it's hard to identify spam from just the revert/delete message
# 17:46 Chief|AFK good night everyone :)
