When somebody who has the power of 'op of irc channel' says "please keep the conversation about _foo_" and kills the entire conversation.The channel was dead. Nobody had said a word for 8 hours. Somebody comes in and asks a question. The question involves a few things. Multiple people chime in, and the conversation goes a little off topic but still within the realm.The 'op' says their thing. Soon after the person who woke us all up leaves. The tumbleweeds return.A job well done 'op'.
