<mrwonderland:tchncs.de> You can disagree with his proposal, but please can we use normal language for that?
-
m-relay
<mrwonderland:tchncs.de> It's destructive and doesn't help at all. Yes it can be hard sometimes, but please, we're all adults. We don't have to be friends, but we have a similiar goal.
-
m-relay
<mrwonderland:tchncs.de> I think he's a valueable part of the community, but he's also one of the people that needs to work on his language sometimes.

this proposal breaks so many basic CCS rules, it's not that he doesn't know them

m-relay
<mrwonderland:tchncs.de> As nioCat said, the discussion about proposals happens here, so I'm copying my statement over:
-
m-relay
-
m-relay
<mrwonderland:tchncs.de> I think this is a good proposal. Reminds me of what Luke said in the latest monerotalk a few days ago. We (the monero community) need to actively pay more people to work on monero.
-
m-relay
<mrwonderland:tchncs.de> ofrnxmr was always quick in helping/answering questions and has a lot of knowledge. I think he is a valueable person, though he needs to work on his language (the CCS is fine). I'm pro merging and would donate to his proposal.
-
m-relay
<mrwonderland:tchncs.de> In general we should encourage a friendly, helpful i.e. 'address the point not the person' language. Trolling etc. is not only not helpful, it actively hurts conversation and problem resolving.
-
m-relay
<mrwonderland:tchncs.de> It would be nice if he wasn't banned here so he could elaborate on this, as I too don't really understand this.

luke said he is against the proposal
-
m-relay
<endor00:matrix.org> He was banned for being the loudest, most arrogant asshole and berating everyone who didn't agree with him, always putting himself at the center of drama (half of which started by him, and the other half that didn't even involve him), and acting as the supreme judge of all that is Monero. He has driven away contributors, wasted a lot of other people's time, and keeps lying/bending<clipped message>
-
m-relay
<endor00:matrix.org> the truth to make himself look good when needed, and shouting over those who try to keep him in check. This "ccs proposal" is just the latest cry for attention. Frankly, it's bad that it took so long to get rid of him
-
m-relay
<mrwonderland:tchncs.de> from what I gathered there is a bit of a split about him.
-
m-relay
<mrwonderland:tchncs.de> Yes scott said '5 distinct mods' but I nave no proof for that nor have witnessed it.
-
m-relay
<mrwonderland:tchncs.de> I think he should maybe get temporarily unbanned to make the discussion on his proposal easier. If he starts shouting/namecalling okay fine, ban him again.
-
nioCat
it was stated that he is not banned on IRC so ....
-
m-relay
<endor00:matrix.org> No ofrn, you will not get unbanned. Making alts asking nicely on your behalf won't help
-
m-relay
<endor00:matrix.org> This is bs and a waste of time, the end
-
nioCat
don't think it's an alt :)
-
m-relay
<endor00:matrix.org> The fact that the proposal is even titled "help ofrn take over the world", is written like a raving lunatic, and asks to be included in the Monero Core Team is proof
-
m-relay
<mrwonderland:tchncs.de> I was referring to the latest monerotalk/monerotopia episode from a few days ago.

m-relay
<syntheticbird:monero.social> you're falling into the *I don't trust the mods I want to see it by myself situation*.

<syntheticbird:monero.social> My only interactions with ofrnxmr show me that he is willing to help the community and generally friendly, but immature in debates and become crazy on counter arguments
-
m-relay
<syntheticbird:monero.social> to summarize, even if its pejorative, *This man don't like being wrong*
-
m-relay
<mrwonderland:tchncs.de> Okay noted. I have witnessed his hotheadedness but also he was very helpful, friendly and knowledgeable on multiple occasions. I guess I wasn't arround yet to witness what you mentioned.
-
m-relay
<mrwonderland:tchncs.de> So you might understand why I've come to a different conclusion (for now).
-
m-relay
<syntheticbird:monero.social> Of course no one dismissing these facts or your conclusion. You're free to give himself the benefits of the doubt.
-
m-relay
<endor00:matrix.org> That ban is there for a reason. The fact that you weren't around doesn't mean people have to bend over backwards and waste more time to prove to every new account that shows up asking for "proof" that it was justified

m-relay
<syntheticbird:monero.social> Tbh I can't understand that most people are asking for proof. On a side it permit themselves to see that ofrnxmr is an asshole, or that the mods are bad. So it have sense, and i think it should be a thing to keep an archive of bans and evidence, free to the public. But it add work for the mods

m-relay
<mrwonderland:tchncs.de> It's about how he was referred to. Yes, as I already stated, his language can be bad at times (from what I witnessed). But it doesn't make it okay if others jump on the bandwagon of bad language/namecalling etc.
-
m-relay
<mrwonderland:tchncs.de> His ban can be totally legit, but if this gets communicated to new people in an equally bad way, it hurts the point and makes it sus.

m-relay
<kayabanerve:matrix.org> ofrnxmr is effectively asking for an official position of power when they have posted their own text messages harassing other people. While they believe they have been harassed themselves and therefore entitled to harass others, I'd argue no one in a position of power should be actively harassing others.
-
m-relay
<kayabanerve:matrix.org> If ofrnxmr wants to downscope the role/proposed work significantly, their demeanor would be less problematic.
-
plowsof
j0j0xmr no matter how absurd you find a proposal, there is a process to try and find a loose consensus. The proposor could take on the negative feedback and make adjustments where possible. Iirc monero shopping wanted over 600 to pretty much get monero to take over the world, the majority found it absurd and it was discussed in community meetings

<CryptoGuard:matrix.org> Don't hesitate to leave us feedback and comment on anything, it's why the beta is public 😇
-
m-relay
<kayabanerve:matrix.org> ofrnxmr also isn't enough of a developer for the project they should be involved in private disclosure of security issues AFAIK/IMO. Explicitly requesting they run point on exploits is insane.
-
m-relay
<kayabanerve:matrix.org> In general, I'd be more open to the inclusion of projects, letting the community decide to fund them or not. The issue is when the project fundamentally shouldn't be funded because ofrnxmr shouldn't supersede the established responsible disclosure process.
-
m-relay
<kayabanerve:matrix.org> There's a variety of other arguments against ofrnxmr taking the requested role, and unless they're being allowed/supported in their role, we shouldn't host funding for it.
-
m-relay
<kayabanerve:matrix.org> Just as we shouldn't host funding for the impl of a HF we won't adopt.

-
jwinterm
I think the proposal was a little over the top and silly maybe to make some commentary on the current ccs and/or core team system of operations, which granted makes the proposal itself seem a bit unserious and maybe not submitted in the appropriate forum, but I think ofrn cares a lot about monero and is I think making a good faith proposal
-
selsta
vulnerabilities should be reported to hackerone
-
nioCat
I thought his proposal was pay me upfront for a year and I will continue to do the stuff I was doing
-
selsta
if they get privately reported to a person there's a risk of it getting lost in the noise
-
jwinterm
though I guess it would probably require some revision to go to funding :D
-
nioCat
I need this because I was banned and no longer make xmr from providing support

guess if accepted it would mean he would need to be unbanned ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

midipoet
my hunch is they would say it should be rejected
-
m-relay
<321bob321:monero.social> I think it needs to be narrowed down
-
midipoet
Do you think that is what ofrnxmr would say?
-
m-relay
<321bob321:monero.social> Probably say too broad
-
m-relay
<321bob321:monero.social> Start with docs domination and dominate world later

Perhaps. I think he would probably point out quite a fair few issues.

midipoet
He probably would never ever stop talking about that time the proposer tried to scam the community.

And how the proposer shouldn't be trusted.
-

And how we should never allow the CCS to be abused by malevolent actors like this.

m-relay
<321bob321:monero.social> Can always post feedback on the gitlab
