The network operators are calling project owners "brainwashed" in the #freenode-services channel.

I think they are at the moment following titanic all the way to the bottom.

Edit with full quote:

> 14:44:44 lionman@ : LeShadow: We dont support adverts/invites/spam for networks we don't affiliate that force users to move even they want to stay with freenode. The users have been forced by many people and ops (brainwashed), even they didn't want to.



Taking a look around their remaining service level channels it sure seems like trolls have taken over. Either that or people have such a strong disconnect with the events that they cannot actually understand why people would have concerns or objections.


I think it's a strong disconnect along with the staff selling lies wholesale. It's weird.

I do wonder when Andrew is going to realize that the 68K users he has is mostly idle connections or small private irc channels.
