Today I decided to leave all communities that had anything to do with bots,
mainly because of the Limnoria channels.
If you have followed Limnoria's channels for longer time, you know how
it has gotten less tolerant of discussions that are not related to
Limnoria. It started escalating today as \#freenode had discussions on
issues with freenode's staffers and while one issue was resolved, @ncoevoet
decided that it's best that they leave the channel as they are "unwanted".
Below is the problematic part of discussion from 2015-02-13:

[21:43:36] <niko> Mikaela: maybe there is more suitable channels for that than here
[21:46:37] <Mikaela> niko: for what?
[21:48:34] <niko> most of us are here for supybot/limnoria support etc, could you use another channel for your gender problem ?
[21:49:41] <Mikaela> our CoC has always allowed offtopic talking and this is the channel where I was always open even before I came out. There aren't also active support questions at the moment. You can find the link in ,,(topic get 1)
[21:49:43] <Limnoria> Help with using and developing for Limnoria, please see our CoC http://git.io/rh363Q
[21:50:04] <Mikaela> true, most of that has moved to ##abgilpqt+ after it was founded and this stopped being the nice channel of ~5 people
```
Today it was nicely told me that it's not offtopic that is the issue, but
it's "my ranting" or in other words, me as I am not neurotypical or cis
or anything else that is wanted feature there. [Link to the CoC of that time.](https://github.com/ProgVal/Limnoria/wiki/CoC/ee9f12ec56159c618bec12f2df41a99596555c85)
I cannot read it any other way than that I am not wanted to the channel and
no matter how many people I have helped, my issues are bigger issue than
