Interesting/Funny/New-to-me conversation in chat

[subsonic]

This probably has to be one of the more bizarre questions I've been asked in chat. I figured I share with everybody because 1) This is an example of what not to do if you have common sense 2) Sometimes I like to be mean and make fun of people:

Code: Select all

22:27 <~subsonic> hi, helpme 
22:27 <~subsonic> What's up?
22:27 < helpme> good and you
22:28 < helpme> subsonic :did you know staff about subsonic license 
22:28 <~subsonic> I don't understand your question
22:28 < helpme> I want to replace the subsonic logo by my logo
22:29 < helpme> can I do that?
22:29 < happyfunball_> what?
22:29 < happyfunball_> what is your logo?
22:30 < helpme> the subsonic web page logo 
22:30 < helpme> own server
22:30 < happyfunball_> so you want to replace it with a different version of the subsonic logo that you made?
22:30 < Bullwinkle> Dou you want to license the site with your logo?
22:31 < helpme> to license my own server with my logo
22:31 < helpme> can I do that?
22:32 < happyfunball_> so you want to take subsonic radio and brand it under another name? using all our resources?
22:32 < helpme> some thing like that
22:33 < happyfunball_> why would you want to do that. what is your website?
22:34 <~subsonic> helpme: That doesn't sound very nice taking someone else's stuff and then calling it your own.
22:34 < helpme> is not live right now
22:34 < happyfunball_> yes, but surely you can tell us what its about
22:34 < helpme> we will have both logo
22:35 < helpme> it for internal use
22:35 < happyfunball_> will you be chipping in for server costs to stream and providing hardware?
22:35 < helpme> non
22:35 <~subsonic> Where are you from?  This seems kinda shady
22:35 < Bullwinkle> Even if you wanted to license...It's a free...volunteer non profit organization...somebody correct me if I'm wrong or slap me silly
22:36 < happyfunball_> it is. there is no licensing
22:36 < Bullwinkle> Second...shady
22:36 < helpme> small business 
22:36 < happyfunball_> second, why would we allow you to leech like it was yours when all the people here have done all the work and shoulderdred all the cost?
22:37 < happyfunball_> this is a fan site
22:37 < happyfunball_> not here to make money
22:37 < helpme> I think any buddy now how to do it
22:37 < happyfunball_> are you wanting this as part of some money making venture
22:37 < helpme> is not for money
22:37 < Bullwinkle> Can't you just link it.....
22:38 < Bullwinkle> Me...being obtuse again
22:38 < helpme> is not live yet 
22:38 < happyfunball_> you are certainly free to put a link on your page to subsonic radio
22:38 <~subsonic> Why not just say: go visit subsonic radio
22:38 < Bullwinkle> why isn't it live?
22:39 < Arvorenn> So you say it's a small business, but it's not for money? How does that fit?
22:40 <~subsonic> To put it short: no, you can't use our site, resources and brand it as your own.
22:41 -!- helpme [Mibbit@CE605B31.2623D6A0.E490D949.IP] has quit [Quit: http://www.mibbit.com ajax IRC Client]
22:41 <~subsonic> that was so bizzare
22:41 <@acp> Well that was a much needed chuckle before bed :D

[subsonic]

Nope, not at all.

[Jacca5660]

[elizabethswann]

And 3) additional proof that the chat is always entertaining and that more people should participate?

Are you sure it wasn't one of those Nigerian money making schemes? You might have made $10 million dollars!

Yeah! The King really needs your help...

[mindflipper]

Or some Asian hacker trying to get access to your server? Website hacking lately seems to be coming from China, and the grammer used is usually poor too...

[sockfire]

You should have quoted some outrageous license fee and see if he went for it.

[subsonic]

OMG, the socker! And, yes, I should have!

[boilerbabe]

How strange!!!
