Putting out IRC Fires

Much like the forums, cooler heads will prevail on IRC. No matter how pressing the matter seems, time must be taken to fully review the logs before acting. Acting quickly leads to mistakes which lead to headaches down the road.

If it ever seems like we’re slow to resolve a complaint on IRC, it’s not that we don’t care, we just have to make sure it’s done right.
