JzG has taken the hint that he needs to acknowledge the problems. His odd way on his user talk sub-page is actually a pretty big climb down. I'm all for saving face if it achieves a solution, and not a great one for kicking someone when they are down (except if they are in the process of getting up to start attacking again!). I do think it is inappropriate that he pretends that the RFC does not exist but responds to it. Bonkers, really, but so be it. I think that is because he knows it is indefensible.
He has said, begrudgingly, that there is a case to answer, and begrudgingly he has said he is trying to reform, and indeed, he even admits it is his problem, although somewhat qualified.
They should record that on the RFC as a one last chance. Then the next time he is over the mark, which most people will assume will be very soon, he will have nowhere to go, but more importantly, his apologists should have nowhere to go - and it is they who are the bigger problem.
I was rather pleased though, that Guy has picked up the feedback loop issue of IRC. As Greg picked up - the best way to solve a feedback loop is to disconnect it at the Jimbo!
I hadn't noticed
this before. Guy is more aware than we give him credit for.
Request For Comment JzG2, Is Mr. Guy Chapman (aka, JzG) going away?
