Beginning in 2008It is a public, some folks began to idle relatively unmoderated forum for general banter, especially focusing on <code>irc.freenodeVTLUUG operations.net</code> in <code>#vtluug</code>. In fall 2009If you have questions about this wiki, there were generally a dozen LUUG membersany even we're having, alumni and associates on at any given time. Currentlyor general *nix, there are often 40 it is the best place to 50 LUUG members and alumni idling in the channelask them.

On February 28Previously, 2012we have had stringent rules on the channel, however, experience shows that the approximately 30 members in the channel made community is rather self-moderating. More importantly, the decision to migrate to ops actively avoid using <code>irc.oftc.net/ban</code> due to persistent stability issues with Freenode and some issues that some members had with the staff.
