Title: Join/leave messages make chatrooms with many members almost unreadable Status in XChat-GNOME: Won't Fix Status in xchat-gnome package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: Binary package hint: xchat-gnome When joining a large Chat-Room (such as #ubuntu or #ubuntu-release- party) the discussion gets totally bogged down by the join leave messages. So if more than 1000 members are in a chatroom sometimes more than 7 of 10 messages are just join/leave which leaves much less room to the already fast moving conversation and makes it very difficult to follow it. Other irc-clients have a sort of conference mode for this, so that if a room contains more than N members, they stop showing the join/leave messages. I'd like that. :) Good numbers for N could be either 10, 30 or 60 members, though that could also be determined empirically, that is the number of members to a chatroom when the join / leave messages start to get more on the nerves than they are useful. :) Martin ProblemType: Bug Architecture: i386 Date: Sun Apr 22 09:22:48 2007 DistroRelease: Ubuntu 7.04 ExecutablePath: /usr/bin/xchat-gnome Package: xchat-gnome 1:0.16-0ubuntu3 PackageArchitecture: i386 ProcCmdline: xchat-gnome ProcCwd: /home/dwt ProcEnviron: LANGUAGE=de_DE:de:en_GB:en PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games LANG=de_DE.UTF-8 SHELL=/bin/bash SourcePackage: xchat-gnome Uname: Linux dwts-laptop 2.6.20-15-generic #2 SMP Sun Apr 15 07:36:31 UTC 2007 i686 GNU/Linux To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/xchat-gnome/+bug/108818/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
