Comment (by duffy):<br>
<br>
</div> BTW Here are Freenode's recommendations on handling issues in the channel:<br>
<a href="http://blog.freenode.net/2007/05/silence-is-golden-handling-trolls-and-" target="_blank">http://blog.freenode.net/2007/05/silence-is-golden-handling-trolls-and-</a><br>
spammers/<br>
<br>
Their first recommendation is:<br>
<br>
"Take conversations to a private forum, channel or a private query<br>
message. This is true even if you’re trying to get the attention of<br>
someone who might be able to kick/ban the troll/spammer. Your lack of<br>
reaction on the channel is quite boring to the troll or spammer and will<br>
only make them lose interest more quickly."<br>
<br>
Please consider Freenode's advice.<br>
