[15:22:05] <TheMightyBuzzard> okay, don't have the new filters adding page of the patch done and don't have it doing the actual ban, otherwise it's ready for dev testing.
[15:24:42] <TheMightyBuzzard> nutherguy, yup. makes perfect sense to me. dipshits who are too stupid to learn to do a coding job use dipshit-friendly tools made by other dipshits that are too incompetent to be trusted to write said tools.
