#1109 change provenpackager join message?
Closed Opened by notting.

= phenomenon =

So, if you'll note in FAS, the join message sent when a user is sponsored into provenpackager is:

"You're the man now, dog."

Which is a cute cultural reference... but not the most inclusive.
Opinions on changing it to something a little more neutral/less culturally specific?


"Abandon hope all ye who enter here" ?

We could model it after the initial sudo warning.

I suppose something simple like "use your powers for good" might work?

Or boring and dry: "Please use your new privledges wisely"

Or "Greetings, Provenpackager. You have been recruited by the Star League to defend the frontier against Xur and the Ko-Dan armada"

As European I would prefer boring message. Cultural references to shows, which we never saw, are confusing.

+1 to changing.

Nirik's "boring and dry" wording strikes me as beset if our goal is clarity. (Spelling note: privileges )

+1 to nirik's proposed change.

Suggestion:
"With great power comes great responsibility. Use it wisely."

This could hit the cultural nod without being exclusive.

+1 to changing

I like:
* nirik's boring
* sgallagh

Adding meeting keyword just to get this closed out, although I realize this is after the agenda went out.

In today's feso meeting we agreed that the new provenpackager join message will read: "Please use your new privileges wisely."

notting is going to fix this.
