JbirkI am told that NETWizz is banned in #ubuntu07:46

wolferineim not an op, I cannot help you further07:48
NETWizzhere we go07:48
NETWizzThis is the banned user07:48

NETWizzI am banned07:48
wolferinemeans, /part then /join07:48
NETWizzWhy should I even try07:48
elkbuntuwolferine, what are you doing?07:48
naliothwolferine: thanks, we're working on it07:49
NETWizzIf I did something, I am sorry, but I want to know what07:49
elkbuntuNETWizz, you were banned for insisting on talking about suse in the *#ubuntu support* channel07:49
NETWizzIf you gusy want me to go away, fine I will leave07:49
wolferinenp nalioth 07:49
elkbuntuNETWizz, you were warned several times to stop it07:49
NETWizzWhy was I not notified of this?07:49
NETWizzWhy was I not first kicked?  Why is there no mention of that in http://www.ubuntu.com/community/conduct/ ?07:50
elkbuntuNETWizz, you were warned verbally by several ops07:50
NETWizzlog file please07:50
elkbuntuhttps://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/bans.cgi?query=netwizz&kicks=on&oldbans=on&bans=on&oldmutes=on&mutes=on07:51
stdinit does, however, say in http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines that off topic (non-support related) discussion should not be in the support channels 07:51
Jucato!guidelines07:51
ubotuThe people in this channel are volunteers. Your attitude will determine how fast you are helped. See also http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines07:51
NETWizzOkay07:52
NETWizzLet me read the logs07:52
naliothNETWizz: so basically, you can talk to your hearts content about Suse, Fedora, or most any other operating system in #ubuntu-offtopic 07:52
NETWizzWhat I don't see is a warning that I was going to be banned07:54
NETWizzNot only that, I read my logs and really don't see what I did that was wrong07:54
NETWizzI left the channel at my own accord to head to #suse07:55
NETWizzAfter I left, I was banned07:55
NETWizzI implore you to explain that07:55
NETWizzThanks, nalioth, I think I will join #ubuntu-offtopic07:56
NETWizzHowever, I still do not see where I broke the code of conduct07:56
elkbuntuNETWizz, you do not have to break the code of conduct to be banned from a channel. You were repeatedly and persistantly offtopic, and this is against freenode policy.07:57
naliothand Ubuntu channel policy07:57
elkbuntuyes, and that07:58
NETWizzYet another link?07:58
NETWizzCan I get a link to that?07:59
NETWizzWell let me see I didn't flood, use an away message, repeat my question, abuse a bot, use non-English, I didn't use poor language, call !ops, bring bots, enable talking scripts08:00
NETWizzI guess you could call me annoying at best08:00
elkbuntuyou were *offtopic*08:00
=== jussio1 [n=jussi@oul088-gw3.netplaza.fi] has joined #ubuntu-ops
NETWizzOkay, so I treated #ubuntu as #ubuntu-offtopic08:01
NETWizzI am willing to go along with that08:01
NETWizzNow that I was off topic, where does it say that is rewarded with a ban?08:02
=== Hobbsee [n=Hobbsee@ubuntu/member/hobbsee] has joined #ubuntu-ops
=== mode/#ubuntu-ops [+v Hobbsee] by ChanServ
NETWizzHere is the gist08:03
NETWizzI was installing Suse and needed help but did not know where to get it08:03
NETWizzI figured, Hey it is a Grub problem08:03
NETWizzHum, I also run Ubuntu, which coincidentally uses Grub... Maybe they would help me08:03
NETWizzI did not get help, but was told to go to #suse08:03
NETWizzI went to #suse and was banned from #Ubuntu08:04
NETWizzIs there a higher level opt I can plead my case too?08:04
naliothNETWizz: we are all here08:04
NETWizzOr perhaps the Freenode people?08:04
NETWizzEveryone feels the ban is justified then?08:04
naliothNETWizz: yes, #ubuntu is not #suse08:04
NETWizzAgreed, but they have a lot in common.  i.e. Grub08:05
NETWizzAm I wrong?08:05
Hobbseenalioth: is a freenode person08:05
naliothNETWizz: ##linux is available if your #[distro]  channel is wanting08:05
NETWizzThe way I look at it is people told me to leave and I left08:06
Hobbseegive me a minute, i havent seen teh logs yet.08:06
Hobbseethen you'll have a full decision from the ops council.08:06
NETWizzIf you want to keep the ban, fine08:06
NETWizzI will go along with the decision08:06
NETWizzI will just have to ask my Ubuntu questions in #ubuntu-offtopic unless that is being offtopic :-)08:07
naliothNETWizz: be our guest08:07
NETWizzAt least I know what I did wrong08:07
NETWizzI feel better about that08:07
elkbuntuNETWizz, strangely, had you simply asked nicely, accepted the reason without challenge or denial, and avoided displaying your 'i have been wronged, i want to talk to your supervisor' attitude, you would have been unbanned a quarter of an hour ago.08:07
elkbuntunow you have to wait until we feel that your attitude is suitiable08:07
NETWizzhaha08:08
HobbseeNETWizz: give me a break...08:08
NETWizzWhere did I say I was terribly wrong08:08
NETWizzI think I just got done saying "I will go along with the decision"08:08
NETWizzI just wanted to ensure it was not one angry moderator after me.08:08
HobbseeNETWizz: you came to ubuntu for suse help, said abotu how suse was, about rpms, etc, *nothing* to do with ubuntu, and then are surprised that you got banned?08:08
elkbuntumeanwhile, you actually ban evaded, knowingly, which is a freenode policy breach and if repeated would likely end in losing access to the whole of freenode08:08
Hobbseegive me a break.  that classes of trolling.08:08
Hobbsees/of/as/08:09
Hobbseeand trolling does not require a kick first.08:09
NETWizzNo offense, but I have been anything but belligerent, and I have not spammed this channel or done anything wrong in #ubuntu-offtopic08:09
NETWizzI have been respectful; I think08:09
Hobbseebut you were a complete git in #ubuntu, so?08:09
NETWizzI don't recall ban evasion08:10
NETWizzIt isn't like I proxied08:10
HobbseeNETWizz: whether you were deliberately trolling, or trolling due to idocy, i dont overly care.  the net effect is the same.08:10
elkbuntuNETWizz, you are banned in #ubuntu, yet intentionally joined #ubuntu knowing the ban was still in place. that is by definition ban evasion08:10
NETWizzIf I really wanted to ban evade, I could stay in #ubuntu until the cows come home and pigs fly, but that isn't my intent08:10
NETWizzI asked if the ban was legit08:10
NETWizzI thought there was some sort of mistake08:11
naliothNETWizz: it was legit, and worked as it was meant to08:11
NETWizzokay, fine08:11
HobbseeNETWizz: being deliberately offtopic, and not heeding warnings is part of trolling.  you lose.08:11
NETWizzWell then, by all means since I have been condemned just tell me how long I am banned from #ubuntu08:12
elkbuntuNETWizz, until we feel you are fit to return there08:12
NETWizzHeeding warnings?08:12
NETWizzIs there a set time?08:12
HobbseeNETWizz: about staying on topic.08:12
NETWizzYou just told me I , "would have been unbanned a half hour ago"08:12
elkbuntuNETWizz, no set time. I'll lift it when I feel you are ready to return08:12
HobbseeNETWizz: had you not been a pain in the neck, yes.08:12
NETWizzI got it08:13
NETWizzThe subtle hint08:13
NETWizz2007-08-17T07:33:35 <nixternal> !offtopic08:13
NETWizz2007-08-17T07:33:35<ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supportsthe development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for randomchatter. Welcome!08:13
HobbseeNETWizz: still, i'm unsure why you would have been unbanned, based on the fact that you didnt seem to have anything relevant to say in ubuntu08:13
NETWizzI should have noticed that08:13
elkbuntuNETWizz, you are only prolonging your ban the longer you stay here and argue08:13
NETWizzLet me just say that it is not like I used profanity, had a serious issue that Ubuntu people have dealt with in the past, et cetera08:14
NETWizzHonestly, I appologize for asking for help with Grub in an Ubuntu channel08:14
Hobbseetrue.  you were trolling.08:14
NETWizzHow can I prolong my ban in #ubuntu08:15
Hobbseeyou asked about suse continuously - that doesnt sound like a problem with grub.08:15
NETWizzI am not even in that channel08:15
HobbseeNETWizz: by keeping on talking.08:15
NETWizzI will tell you what08:15
NETWizzWhen I want back in Ubuntu, I will enter but you won't know who I am08:15
NETWizzHow is that?08:15
NETWizzThe Internet is a great place08:15

Hobbseemc44: they get banned.  although they're more clueless rather than deliberately going on when told to stop.03:23
mc44Hobbsee: then ban people in offtopic03:23
Hobbseemc44: ban list wont cover it, and we dont watch it with a fine toothed comb like that03:23
Hobbseeand they tend to bitch very very loudly03:24
mc44Yes. Ignoring bitching is the cost of being an op though, right :)03:24
Pici!o4o03:24
ubotuSome things are inappropriate for #ubuntu-offtopic. It is asked that controversial topics: war, race, religion, politics (unless related to software licencing), gender, sexuality, drugs, questionable legal activities, removing of oneself from the planet (except by space travel) are not for here, perhaps #off-topic or ##politics. Microsoft software in ##windows (Please note Freenode Policy) - Thanks.03:24
=== Pici reads
gnomefreakwhat would change if we dropped u-o and everyone went to #3offtopic (as far as the conversations people have)?03:24
mc44there would be no rules, it would be like any other crappy irc channel03:25
Hobbseeyes, but when they bithc in highly prominent places, etc, and so drag the reputation of ubuntu down03:25
gnomefreakother than being able to talk more openly?03:25
Hobbseegnomefreak: "SEP"03:25
gnomefreaksep?03:25
mc44someone elses problem03:25
gnomefreakIMHO dropping u-o or move it to ##offtopic only helps the users that chat in the channel03:26
gnomefreakit gives ops a break from one channnel03:26
Hobbseethat's the point, yes03:26
mc44how? I don't want to be in a room where people can say whatever they like without any rules03:26
PiciI have a feeling that a lot of the frequent users in u-o agree with mc44.03:27
gnomefreakthan make rules up for #offtopic and as individule/ or some random people have ops in there (other than mainstream ops_)03:27
PiciAnd when people ask if we have an ubuntu social channel, we say what?03:28
Hobbseethat it's ##offtopic.03:29
Hobbseemeh.  i just wish people would behave, and would stop pulling crap.03:29
gnomefreakPici: if we were able to control that channel as we do with all it would be different but we sort of have to be relaxed a bit on rules because we hear nothing but bitching when we enforce the rules (we have tried this before)03:29
mc44but it wouldn't be03:29
mc44Hobbsee: don't we all :)03:29
PiciThen maybe we just need to change the rules.03:30
gnomefreakchange what?03:30
gnomefreakalolow some of the above topic from bot?03:30
mc44We have Pici in charge to enforce the rules now :D03:30

gnomefreaki wish more output for failed patches were posted to either patch.failed or termiinal but this is sucking badly here03:32
Garygnomefreak, are you on a mac?03:33
gnomefreakno03:33
gnomefreakif i dont answer that means i had a thought and more than likely the thought wont work anyway03:34
gnomefreakbrb03:34
PiciI wonder (again, thinking out loud), if restricting u-o to registered users only and forwarding the rest to ##offtopic would help, by keeping out some of the riff-raff.  On the other hand, it would cause some confusion.03:37
Hobbseei suspect that would just make them register.03:38
gnomefreaknot really some of the people are reg. that cause issues03:38
PiciBut most?03:38

Hobbseeyeah, i noted teh lag of 54 seconds here too04:10
mc44Hobbsee: yes, I was just pointing out the problem of calling staffers :) I'm sure someone will figure out killing ubotu before flooding the channel is a cunning plan04:10
seanwPhilKC joined in too but we ended up klining the same ones more than once, which just wasted tome :\04:10

seanwHilighting staff helps04:11
