Really?

Vote for deletion. This is not really a programming language, more of a macro at best. (All right HQ9+ isn't much of one either but...) The entire purpose of this "language" is to assist spammers, trolls and skript kiddies. I am not much inclined to hand them tools on a platter or encourage them in any way. --Thundergnat (talk) 10:12, 25 September 2019 (UTC)

Although I normally agree with you on this sort of matter, on this occasion I think you're being a bit harsh.

The author of the task has posted a number of respectable contributions to RC in various languages and I'm sure just means this as a bit of fun.

CopyPasta seems no worse to me than any other 'joke' esoteric language (such as HQ9+). Anyone who has reservations about using the clipboard on a shared machine can simply write to a memory buffer instead.

However, there are a number of points about the task which are not particularly clear and it should, of course, just be a draft at this stage. --PureFox (talk) 12:17, 25 September 2019 (UTC)
