| PriceChild | Could you read those two please GNine? | 00:51 |
| PriceChild | Ping me when done. | 00:51 |
| GNine | what am i looking for in those articles | 00:52 |
| Seeker` | GNine: You are expected to read them through | 00:53 |
| GNine | i broke the rule i got banned. fine. i want access. so am asking for it. | 00:53 |
| Seeker` | I suspect it is to help you understand how you should behave in ubuntu channels | 00:54 |
| GNine | i know how to behave in ubuntu channels. that i broke the rule according to whichever op is past tense now. i guarantee you i could dig up much worst violations that have not been 'prosecuted' for whatever reason. sort of like in real life. | 00:56 |
| PriceChild | GNine, I would rather you read the guidelines, to understand what we expect you to abide by in future. | 00:56 |
| GNine | am not upset though. i just want access to media. i , am a collabotator or, supporter , of the ubuntu cause , or movement. if i didnt have the system installed i wouldnt be around these servers | 00:57 |
| PriceChild | I'm not asking you to sign your life away... just five minutes to confirm that you have read the guidelines. | 00:58 |
| GNine | alright. done reading. | 01:03 |
| PriceChild | Woohoo... and wow 5 minutes 18 seconds... I'm psychic. | 01:05 |
| PriceChild | GNine, ok so if I let you into -offtopic again, you understand we expect you to abide by those guidelines etc. etc. and just use your common sense? Ie not testing the limits when an op is dealing with another user? | 01:05 |
| GNine | 10-4 | 01:06 |
| PriceChild | *isn't in the military or wherever you use those numbers* | 01:06 |
| GNine | thats Citizens Band code. also named 10-codes . and also use (in part) in law enforcement as well as in the military . | 01:07 |
| PriceChild | GNine, could you give me a linky to where they're explained? I've always wanted to know what they all mean. You may rejoin #ubuntu-offtopic | 01:08 |
| GNine | there are 200 10-code codes | 01:08 |
| Seeker` | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ten-code | 01:09 |
| GNine | thats a start | 01:09 |
| GNine | and, thank you | 01:09 |

| nalioth | GNine: please turn that off :) | 01:25 |
| GNine | yah.. am trying. my mistake. am out | 01:26 |
| PriceChild | nalioth, been talking about it in -offtopic | 01:26 |
| LjL | nalioth, PriceChild, i don't quite agree though that we should have some channels with one naming convention and others with a different one. that doesn't help users, although it might make some loco people happier... | 01:53 |
| LjL | as i said yesterday | 01:53 |
| LjL | the world has many countries | 01:53 |
| LjL | said countries often are big enough to have regions | 01:53 |
| LjL | since there's about 200 countries each with its regions, name clashes just will occur | 01:53 |
| LjL | the US isn't the only country entitled to have sub-country loco channels i believe | 01:53 |
| LjL | besides, for those channels that *don't* clash, forwards can be and are set | 01:54 |
| PriceChild | Ok yes. | 01:55 |
| LjL | nobody's saying they just all have to do it overnight | 01:56 |
| nalioth | not at all | 01:56 |
| PriceChild | That's pretty much the impression they've gotten though I think. | 01:56 |
| PriceChild | meh I can't remember what I was thinking a few hours ago. | 01:57 |
| LjL | PriceChild, for what i'm concerned, they have all rights to first arrange with the bot owners of any bots that are in their channel (such as ubotu to begin with) to move to the new channels, and they can do the move when they have time | 01:57 |
| LjL | but eventually i also think they should move | 01:57 |
| LjL | nalioth, the reason my bots kept spamming -unregged since 21 to 23 (and more) seems to be that chanserv wasn't replying to their pings. on the other hand, it must have replied to flootbot3, otherwise it would have dropped the limit... could there be any reason why chanserv started ignoring them? | 02:02 |
| nalioth | no clue, LjL | 02:04 |
| LjL | oh, uhm, actually, i was grepping the logs incorrectly | 02:07 |
| LjL | i know why they did that. same reason as yesterday's apparent misbehavior | 02:07 |
| LjL | more than 50 users difference between channel and limit | 02:07 |
| LjL | and due to the "safe" algorithm i use, it takes a *long* time for the limit to catch up again with the users count | 02:07 |
| LjL | so they stayed in emergency mode all that time | 02:08 |

| poeloq | Hey guys | 18:39 |
| PriceChild | Hey poeloq. | 18:39 |
| poeloq | what is the normal procedure to become a #ubuntu op? | 18:39 |
| tritium | poeloq: you start by not asking to become one | 18:40 |
| poeloq | tritium: that is what I expected :) | 18:40 |
| PriceChild | You're asking about #ubuntu in particular... | 18:40 |
| PriceChild | You get asked by the Ubuntu IRC Council (the channel contact) to op. | 18:40 |
| poeloq | yes, that is the only channel I am currently helping on | 18:41 |
| poeloq | PriceChild: Thanks! | 18:41 |
| PriceChild | We normally choose new ops from those helping lots when we feel we need more ops. | 18:41 |
| Tm_T | PriceChild: yup, normally | 18:41 |
| poeloq | cool, that seems like the best way. It doesn't seem like there is a big need for too many OPs as it is | 18:41 |
| poeloq | not much silliness going on over there | 18:42 |
| tritium | it varies | 18:42 |
| PriceChild | Friday nights on school holidays noticably different. | 18:43 |
| poeloq | PriceChild: I can imagine :) | 18:43 |
| poeloq | Luckily private messaging is disable for unregistered users | 18:43 |
| poeloq | On DalNet it is crazy | 18:43 |
| poeloq | Is idling allowed/encourage on #ubuntu | 18:44 |
| tritium | There is no problem with idling, poeloq | 18:45 |
| poeloq | cool | 18:46 |
| crdlb | can you imagine if those 1200 people *weren't* mostly idling? :) | 18:46 |
| poeloq | that would be quite crazy :) | 18:46 |
| poeloq | That is one of the disadvantages of big IRC rooms | 18:46 |
| PriceChild | poeloq, no it isn't.... | 18:46 |
| PriceChild | poeloq, by default... you don't accept messages from unregistered users. | 18:46 |
| PriceChild | Ubuntu IRC ops are suggested to turn that "feature" off. | 18:46 |
| poeloq | PriceChild: Of course, that seems like a reasonable thing. I would be annoyed if I couldn't contact any Ops by /msg. | 18:48 |
| poeloq | And Freenode is a lot more grown up than many other networks | 18:48 |
