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.
gollark: If I remember right, one of palaiologos's main campaign promises was transparency.
gollark: I *do* ensure transparency by summarising events a bit for nonstaff.
