Comment (by duffy):

 Take a step back guys. Where did I make a threat? Look at the original
 post:

 "-afk and -away nick changes are a pretty standard convention in many of
 the #fedora- channels (for example, #fedora-admin, #fedora-devel, #fedora-
 design). "

 If you want more Fedora devs hanging in #fedora, the nick policy is a
 problem. That is all I was saying. Please cool off. There's no threatening
 going on.

 Seriously, if I have no power to make everybody use an IRC client that
 understands /aways, how am I going to have any power to stop Fedora
 developers from going into #fedora? I have none. Your policies do.

 Your eagerness to escalate a statement meant to help you into a threat is
 a good example of why #fedora is not a good place to be.
