gollark: I think bots is to be below meta, yes.

gollark: Yes, I'm glad you've been able to find people who agree with you on things most.

gollark: For purposes, naturally. I could say approximately the same thing to you. Although with "palaiologos" instead of "gollark".

gollark: What do you mean excluding people from offtopic? I have no power over it. I can't stop people accessing it.

gollark: Why would I send screenshots? That would require effort. And scrolling/zoom controls, if it's particularly busy. My screenshot workflow is suboptimal.
