J-_Why is there a lack of, or rather - no ops/encorcement in #ubuntu-offtopic. It's becoming not so family-friendly, and people are tending to take advantage of that?10:03
Tm_Tfeel free to call !ops | reason when needed10:06
* Hobbsee notes that people insist on taking it non-family-friendly directions a lot of the time10:07
Hobbseeand tehn whine when they get kickbanned.10:07
Tm_THobbsee: latter can be ignored10:12
Hobbseewell, of course10:12
Tm_T:)10:12
Tm_Tno, I wasn't telling how to do, just pointing out that we do agree on this10:13
J-_Well, it's not really even that. the mainstream has taken over because of popularity.  It's good for Ubuntu, for being so popular but just the lack of ops doing good deeds in the channel for the minority trying to keep the policy intact such as myself and others, then, usually getting "lol", or a factoid thrown back at you saying you're abusing the bot. Being a channel I am most active in, it sucks. I wish the old #ubuntu-offtopic was still around10:14
Tm_TJ-_: unfortunately I don't have powers to help10:15
Tm_TJ-_: just call ops when needed, if still doesn't help, I believe IRC Council would like to check that10:16

LjLbadly, it seems apparent14:12

Picin33dhelp: Does anyone else use your connection?18:53
n33dhelpsry, Pici, afk19:04
n33dhelpi actually did have my wireless network unsecured for a long time19:04
n33dhelpthe reason i secured it was because i saw unknown computers using it :p19:05
n33dhelpjoin #debian19:05
n33dhelpwoops.19:05
Picin33dhelp: The fact is, after reviewing the logs a bit further, its very peculiar that someone leeching your connection happened to join #ubuntu and act inapropirately.19:19
Picin33dhelp: Our usual policy is to require the person who orginally created the ban be the one who lifts it, and I might have been willing to bend this if this was a trivial issue: but it isn't.  You can come back later and see if that person (Seveas) is around, but he hasn't been on for about a week now (hes a busy guy).19:25
Picihm. I wonder if he read that or not.19:30
