That's why although I have come back to haunt IRC, I have stayed away from #edevelop and other high traffic areas. I'm a compulsive reader, all that off topic chatter soaks up my time. It's fun, I just no longer have the time for it. At the moment I'm looking to strike a balance between running my new contracting business, open source projects, and doing things for the fun of it. Elder Scrolls IV Oblivion takes up too much of my time, once I've finished that I might get more balance. B-) How about we approach this from a different direction. Instead of creating a new channel for pure dev talk and watching it get mired in off topic chatter, why not create a new channel purely for off topic chatter? Then encourage people to go and chatter there. May not work as we are a bit cliquey sometimes. We like having our own little channels for dev talk and semi private chatter. We would need #e, #e-chat, #edevelop, #edevelop-chat, #etk, #etk-chat, #ewl, #ewl-chat etc.
