==The Story== | |||
Every couple of months this erupts again here is the story as [[User:SamLR|I]] see it: | |||
# Once upon a time ([[News_2010-08-03|well, August 2010]]) the space's community was small (<100 members) and we had this huge space (unit 24) to use. | |||
# Every so often after epic hacking people would crash out over night at the space to commence the hacking anew with first light (or 11am as the rest of the world calls it) | |||
# As the space grew things changed, unit 23 was acquired, weird urges were felt and hair started growing where it had never grown before, oh and we got more members (~140, 1st Jan 2011) | |||
# And then there was the [http://groups.google.com/group/london-hack-space/browse_thread/thread/5d3ec87b9af7efb6 thread] (April 23rd 2011), in a simple time of a mear 260 members it was a simple request to try and go home to sleep rather than use the space | |||
# Later the [http://groups.google.com/group/london-hack-space/browse_thread/thread/75741c1074e819b5 Rule] was added ("Do not treat the Hackspace like your home, it is a shared space. You should not sleep in the space.") and it was understood that you could sleep if there were exceptional circumstances or you were a visitor from out of town. Again peace was restored and all were happy (Sept 1 2011, 320 members). | |||
# In the Feburary of 2011 (380 members) the [http://groups.google.com/group/london-hack-space/browse_thread/thread/8716e2804a4ff6a9# first] rumblings were when complaints were received of people sleeping in the dark room | |||
# After [http://groups.google.com/group/london-hack-space/browse_thread/thread/2f78a63dec6f1e94/591775f9b1999f73 discussion] the Rule was tightened ("Sleeping in the space is forbidden") | |||
# But the rule was [http://groups.google.com/group/london-hack-space/browse_thread/thread/4430b091db83277a ignored] | |||
# and so began the time of trolls... |
