Hobbsee, you need to be honest with yourself.  You PM'd me and tons of
other people about what and EVIL troll Emma was.  Emma has turned out
to be a lovely member of any and all channels she is in.  There was
not a day when you did not publcically emaciate freenode staff either
in #ubuntu-ops or on #freenode it self.  You are part of the problem
because you helped start the downward spiral.  When you got tired of
no one listening to your ranting, you stepped down from "userland" and
only wanted to play in "developer" land.

Ubuntu IRC has SUCKED ever since Seveas stepped down.  It's odd that
one guy could manage to keep the peace, and a council cant even come
up with a document on how they should work

If I were on the CC, I would get rid of the silly IRCC and beg Seveas
to come back.  Thats the kind of salvation the ops team needs.  When
Seveas was around, there were no problems like there are now.

Seveas is by far the best IRC dude I have ever known.
