| ethan961 | Hello, yesterday I was banned from #ubuntu-offtopic for mentioning a destructive command. I apologize for my misbehaviour, and I have read the guidelines (!ettiquete) thouroughly. I take full responsibility for my actions, and was wondering if I could be unbanned? | 00:49 |
| tonyyarusso | ethan961: Normally you'll need to get in touch with the particular op who banned you, so if they aren't around at the moment it may take a bit. | 00:52 |
| ethan961 | Mr. Seveas was the particular op who banned me. | 00:53 |
| Seeker` | @btlogin | 00:56 |
| Jack_Sparrow | ethan961: Did you get any message as to why you were banned? | 00:59 |
| PriceChild | ethan961, you mentioned a destructive command? rm / ? | 01:00 |
| Seeker` | PriceChild: Slightly worse than that (if there can be such a thing) | 01:02 |
| Seeker` | he put a certain 4 letter word in front | 01:02 |
| PriceChild | I'm lazy and didn't want to type the whole thing. | 01:03 |
| PriceChild | I doubt a day will be long enough | 01:03 |
| PriceChild | @btlogin | 01:04 |
| ethan961 | Yes, that was the command. and although I didnt get a message, I knew that was why. | 01:06 |
| PriceChild | I love the way you were noticed, because someone pinged the op saying its lucky he wasn't there... a sure fire way to bring him there. | 01:10 |
| PriceChild | ethan961, what does sudo rm -rf / do? | 01:10 |
| LjL | lossy compression | 01:13 |
| ethan961 | Destroys ie removes every file in the root partition and every partition mounted on it. | 01:14 |
| Seeker` | LjL: Not heard it described like that before | 01:15 |
| PriceChild | ethan961, so not a good thing for a beginner to see? | 01:17 |
| PriceChild | and wonder "what does that do?" | 01:17 |
| PriceChild | and try it? | 01:17 |
| ethan961 | No not good. Not advised. | 01:19 |
| ethan961 | Very dangerous to say where it could be heard. | 01:19 |
| PriceChild | ok.... so what you said was confusing in -offtopic | 01:20 |
| PriceChild | you said you were googling | 01:20 |
| PriceChild | as though it were mystical | 01:20 |
| ethan961 | ? | 01:21 |
| PriceChild | so is it hard to conceive... that a random beginner may skip the googling... and just do it? | 01:21 |
| ethan961 | I would think it less likely, but yes, it is possible | 01:23 |
| PriceChild | so its a *really* bad thing to be doing.... | 01:24 |
| PriceChild | let alone *TWICE* | 01:24 |
| ethan961 | yes. I realize that I screwed up, and I promise that it will never happen again. | 01:25 |
| PriceChild | The past month or so we've had several waves of trolls on ubuntuforums.org | 01:27 |
| PriceChild | dozens upon dozens of trolls posting that command | 01:27 |
| PriceChild | and people have been affected | 01:27 |
| PriceChild | I'm sure they've lost work no doubt | 01:27 |
| ethan961 | is it right to ban me on the forums, too? | 01:28 |
| PriceChild | No i'm just showing you that it does happen. | 01:33 |
| ethan961 | I have several friends who have fallen for it, not on the ubuntuforums afaik gladly | 01:35 |
| ethan961 | I am sorry, I screwed up. I promise that this or anything else will never happen again. May I please have a second chance? | 01:44 |
| __mikem | PriceChild: I have been talking to him in PM. I was there when it happened. He seems sincerely sorry. And he told me it is his "first offense" | 01:45 |
| PriceChild | Seveas, around? | 01:57 |
| PriceChild | ethan961, I'd rather we wait for the banning op to decide, especially as it was so recently. | 02:00 |
| ethan961 | ok | 02:01 |
| ethan961 | for some reason, however, while I was away from the computer I joined(auto rejoin upon connection loss) and when I noticed I tried to join again, but was told I was banned again | 02:03 |
| ethan961 | when I noticed that I had somehow joined when I got back | 02:04 |

| Pici | yeesh. Looks like it was a busy night. | 12:14 |
| ikonia | Pici: I left as it was one of the most unusual "trouble" nights I've seen | 13:10 |
| Pici | ikonia: Yuck. | 13:10 |
| ikonia | just wasn't worth doing anything as everyone was out to be a pain (generalising a tad) | 13:11 |
| Pici | I have at least 10 ops calls in my hilight log. | 13:11 |
| ikonia | there was more while I was still around, hence why I just called it a night | 13:12 |
| Pici | hm. | 13:52 |
| jpatrick | Achso. | 13:52 |
| Pici | Vorbote: Greetings, how can we help you today? | 13:52 |
| Vorbote | I have a question, a long time ago I was banned from ubuntu-es with no apparent reason but trying to quench an off-topic discussion between two teens. I am not particularly interested in having access to that channel anymore, but I'd like to know what happened at the time. | 13:54 |
| Vorbote | I was using irssi at that time and I wasn't aware of its ping problems then. If it was an automatic ban that would be the cause. | 13:56 |
| Vorbote | Otherwise I suspect a sort of immature vendetta by asociation with another user that frequented the channel at the time. | 13:56 |
| no0tic | Vorbote, I don't think you're still banned from -es | 13:58 |
| Vorbote | Hmm.... Lemme try that out. | 13:59 |
| PriceChild | Vorbote, we do not manage loco channels in this way. If you /msg chanserv access #ubuntu-es list, and message someone listed there it will be a lot quicker to find out. | 13:59 |
| PriceChild | Vorbote, even better, if you remember who banned you, you should message them. | 13:59 |
| no0tic | Vorbote, try on #ubuntu-es-ops | 14:00 |
| no0tic | we have a problem with the hosting of our loco bot, ubot-it, its server is frequently down, could it be hosted elsewhere? | 14:01 |
| Pici | Would #ubuntu-irc be a good place to ask instead? | 14:01 |
| Vorbote | Is there an es-ops channel? First news. | 14:01 |
| no0tic | Vorbote, since two weeks or so | 14:01 |
| LjL | Pici: if there is no dedicated channel, yes, although i generally think a dedicated channel is preferable | 14:01 |
| Vorbote | Hmm.. Very recent I see. I'll explore that venue then. Thanks! | 14:01 |
| LjL | exploity night tonight | 14:03 |
| Seeker` | LjL: is that a prediction? | 14:05 |
| LjL | no, the past night | 14:05 |
| Pici | I was saying earlier that I had at least 10 ops calls in my hilight backlog. | 14:05 |
| LjL | Pici: well if you count each of the bots' call, i suppose | 14:06 |
| Pici | LjL: I'm not talking about just exploits. | 14:07 |
| ubotu | FloodBot1 called the ops in #ubuntu-ops-monitor (mass join) | 14:09 |
| PriceChild | that's a lot of join | 14:10 |
| Pici | eh? | 14:10 |
| Pici | I see nothing. | 14:10 |
| Pici | PriceChild: Did you actually see a mass join? | 14:11 |
| PriceChild | I wouldn't say "mass"... but about 20 join and no part | 14:11 |
| PriceChild | easy to see why the bots called it | 14:11 |
| Pici | odd. I dont it. | 14:12 |
| LjL | [15:08:59] --> Gary has joined this channel (n=Gary@freenode/staff/colchester-lug.gary). | 14:12 |
| LjL | you know who to blame | 14:12 |
| PriceChild | Pici, http://pastebin.ca/899865 | 14:13 |
| PriceChild | Seveas, ping | 14:13 |
| LjL | Pici: you're not seeing that? | 14:13 |
| ubotu | dgjones called the ops in #ubuntu () | 14:14 |
| * LjL is checking the news but isn't seeing anything about mass escapes from a zoo | 14:16 | |
| Pici | LjL: Eh, its a little floody, but not so much that it jumped out at me as being an attack. | 14:17 |
| LjL | Pici: well in fact it wasn't. was just wondering if you hadn't seen that from your server | 14:18 |
| LjL | Pici: but it was indeed 19 joins with no part, a statistically pretty notable occurrence | 14:20 |
| LjL | 20 actually | 14:20 |
| no0tic | LjL, gaussian tails | 14:20 |
| LjL | no0tic: ja but they've become more frequent somewhat lately | 14:21 |
| PriceChild | wow what a guestimate by me!!! | 14:21 |
| * PriceChild is the best | 14:21 | |
| LjL | at least it looks that way to me | 14:21 |
| no0tic | LjL, are #ubuntu users increasing? | 14:22 |
| LjL | no0tic: don't have the stats handy, but yeah they've been over 1300 for some time. they're possibly slightly decreasing now though | 14:22 |

| ikonia | ughh ? | 15:36 |
| ikonia | no0tic: ahhh sorry | 15:36 |
| ikonia | thought his earlier troll was down to lack of english | 15:36 |
| ikonia | but looking at him now, he's just a pain | 15:36 |
| ikonia | no0tic: my apologies | 15:36 |
| no0tic | ikonia, :) no problem he focused on #ubuntu | 15:37 |
| ikonia | no0tic: I suspect he's on his way back to you | 15:38 |
| no0tic | ikonia, he shows no interest in -es unfortunately | 15:39 |
| ikonia | can a #ubuntu guy just kick him please. he's getting annoying | 15:39 |
| ikonia | Pici: thank you | 15:39 |
| Pici | *poof* | 15:39 |
| ikonia | Pici: you truley are the shop keeper from Mr Ben | 15:40 |
| ikonia | (I think I've explained that gag to you before) | 15:40 |
| Pici | I am Mr. Ben too. | 15:40 |
| ikonia | yes, I remember now, | 15:40 |
| ikonia | you said that last time | 15:41 |
| Pici | I probably did. | 15:41 |

| ubotu | lollo called the ops in #ubuntu () | 18:15 |
| * stdin repeats [09:13]<stdin> I'm starting to think +b *lol*!*@* isn't a bad idea... | 18:16 | |
| PriceChild | i'm sure we had something like that before... | 18:17 |
| Pici | How do we ban mibbit hosts? | 18:17 |
| Pici | hammer89 is annoying me greatly. | 18:18 |
| Jack_Sparrow | I was sure we had a way to do it | 18:18 |
| Jack_Sparrow | his ip is at the end of his whois | 18:19 |
| Jack_Sparrow | See if you can ban hammer | 18:20 |
| Seveas | Pici, name/ident ban | 18:21 |
| stdin | you can ban on ident, i=18e19c52 is the IP in hex | 18:21 |
| Pici | The question is, will the bot set an exempt in both cases? | 18:22 |
| Seveas | ban the ident from -proxy-users | 18:22 |
| Pici | ah | 18:22 |
| jussi01 | good evening all | 18:22 |
| Pici | 13:22:22 <FloodBot1> Hammer89 tried to join #ubuntu from a web gateway, but their host is banned | 18:22 |
| Jack_Sparrow | It was tested a few ways when the exception was added... | 18:22 |
| Jack_Sparrow | I thought Ljl was able to ban a specific user from there | 18:23 |
| ompaul | Seveas, na I was interested in why the user in question was here, but the man from the factoid factory was already on the case ;-) so we sat back to hear your words | 18:28 |
| Pici | The person in question wasn't around anyways. | 18:28 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Does anyone think we could use a factoid for resetting the desktop.. like http://linuxfud.wordpress.com/2007/02/14/how-to-reset-ubuntugnome-settings-to-defaults-without-re-installing/ | 18:30 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Cool we just had a good sized earthquake | 18:30 |
| Seveas | milkshake! | 18:32 |
| Tm_T | :/ | 18:32 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Mooooooo :) | 18:33 |
| Jack_Sparrow | That was a good sized earthquake.. 5.1 just across the border | 18:51 |
| Pici | Jack_Sparrow: Whereabouts are you? | 18:52 |
| Jack_Sparrow | san diego ca | 18:52 |
| Pici | Ah. | 18:52 |
| PriceChild | Pici, if they are banned in #ubuntu by their "real" hostname, (what appears in the real name of mibbit) the floodbots won't grant access to #ubuntu | 18:54 |
| masterloki | hey | 18:56 |
| masterloki | can you try the dcc exploit thing on this user plz | 18:56 |
| masterloki | im in gutsy and i noticed that the default for freenode does NOT have the 8001 | 18:57 |
| PriceChild | masterloki, for freenode, or for "Ubuntu Servers"? | 18:57 |
| masterloki | Ubuntu Servers | 18:57 |
| masterloki | also ive flashed the router so its not linksys firmware anymore | 18:57 |
| masterloki | hm | 18:57 |
| masterloki | well thats kewl | 18:58 |
| Pici | masterloki: Did you follow the instructions in #ubuntu-read-topic ? | 18:58 |
| masterloki | * Connecting to chat.freenode.net (140.211.166.3) port 6667... | 18:58 |
| masterloki | Pici, no im not banned lol | 18:58 |
| Pici | o. | 18:58 |
| masterloki | i just wanted to test | 18:58 |
| masterloki | fyi | 18:58 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Pici: I just dcc'd him | 18:58 |
| masterloki | include in the wiki/instructions a line noting the ddwrt firmware for the linksys wireless routers is invulnerable | 18:58 |
| masterloki | Jack_Sparrow, yeah thats why i was like 'hmm thats kewl' :P | 18:59 |
| Jack_Sparrow | np | 18:59 |
| masterloki | lol | 18:59 |
| masterloki | let me log in router i' | 18:59 |
| masterloki | ll tell u firmware version | 18:59 |
| masterloki | have ddwrt 5.1 | 18:59 |
| PriceChild | is this needed? | 18:59 |
| masterloki | well | 19:00 |
| masterloki | it IS another solution to the same problem | 19:00 |
| masterloki | deserves an honerable mention | 19:00 |
| masterloki | Firmware: DD-WRT v24 RC-5 (11/22/07) micro | 19:00 |
| masterloki | ok im out thanx | 19:01 |
| PriceChild | that solution is mentioned though? "get up to date firmware" | 19:01 |
| masterloki | no | 19:01 |
| masterloki | up to date firmware is implying linksys firmware | 19:01 |
| PriceChild | We are not going to advise switching to dd-wrt from standard. | 19:01 |
| masterloki | not saying you should advise it | 19:01 |
| PriceChild | I'm sure that kind of thing voids warranties etc. | 19:02 |
| masterloki | just mention it works | 19:02 |
| Pici | Most people aren't going to switch to ddwrt just to get past this vulnerability. I don't think it really needs mentioning. | 19:02 |
| masterloki | Pici, actually its worth thinking about | 19:02 |
| PriceChild | Hmmm true... just checking the source for xchat and it doesn't use 8001 by default. | 19:03 |
| masterloki | since other networks have the same thing | 19:03 |
| PriceChild | !bug | masterloki | 19:03 |
| ubotu | masterloki: If you find a bug in Ubuntu or any of its derivatives, please file a bug report at: http://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu - Bugs in/wishes for the bots can be filed at http://launchpad.net/ubuntu-bots | 19:03 |
| masterloki | and not all have the 8001 open | 19:03 |
| masterloki | arg | 19:03 |
| masterloki | fine i' | 19:03 |
| masterloki | ll file in a bit | 19:03 |
| masterloki | anyway i'll roll on out :P | 19:03 |
| PriceChild | Thankyou, pm me the number if you do. *runs off to lunch* | 19:03 |
| masterloki | tata~~ | 19:03 |
| masterloki | ok | 19:03 |
| Pici | Seveas: I think we banned srv the other day due to something similar... /me checks the tracker | 19:36 |
| ubotu | Bassetts called the ops in #ubuntu-uk () | 20:00 |
| ompaul | PriceChild, ddwrt hmm /me likes it - it actually runs better than the cisco stuff :) | 20:06 |
| ompaul | but anyway | 20:06 |
| nalioth | dd-wrt, eh? | 20:06 |
| ompaul | eh | 20:06 |
| ompaul | nalioth, since when are you canadian/ | 20:06 |
| Pici | eh? | 20:07 |
| ompaul | or was that ever sentence starts with one - can't remember :) | 20:07 |
| ompaul | Pici, we should have a blame peru song | 20:08 |
| nalioth | ompaul: eh? | 20:12 |
| ompaul | the is a meme that says all canadian sentences contain an "eh" | 20:13 |
| nalioth | not just canadians | 20:16 |
| * nalioth thought it was a minnesota and wisconsin thing | 20:16 | |
| Pici | Thats 'dontcha know' | 20:16 |
| Seeker` | argh! hide! | 20:17 |
| Syntux | Hello, I need to talk to one of Ubuntu IRC operators | 20:31 |
| LjL | continuing in -irc | 20:33 |
| Syntux | sure. | 20:35 |
| PriceChild | ompaul, yeah I'm not saying its not good... just pointing out it probably voids warranties so its not something we should promote | 20:39 |
| ompaul | PriceChild, ack | 20:40 |
| ompaul | PriceChild, your logic stands up on its own ;-) | 20:40 |
| ubotu | In #ubuntu-irc, jpatrick said: !msg is <alias>msgthebot | 21:14 |
| jpatrick | arg | 21:14 |
| ubotu | jpatrick called the ops in #ubuntu (zergrush) | 21:17 |
| ubotu | dgjones called the ops in #ubuntu () | 21:17 |
| seanw | PriceChild, no. | 21:18 |
| * jpatrick stands by in #k | 21:18 | |
| seanw | jpatrick, #k? | 21:18 |
| jpatrick | seanw: #kubuntu | 21:18 |
| seanw | Aha | 21:18 |
| jpatrick | zergrush [n=Server20@76.224.243.228 | 21:20 |
| jpatrick | that was the guy from yesterday | 21:20 |
| jpatrick | and I believe stdin banned *!Server20@* in #k yesterday | 21:24 |
| nalioth | jpatrick: klined today | 21:26 |
| jpatrick | nalioth: good to hear | 21:26 |
| stdin | my ban waas *!*@ip68-111-160-167.sd.sd.cox.net I believe | 21:26 |
| jpatrick | stdin: later you did it | 21:27 |
| stdin | ah, it was elkbuntu who set *!Server20@*, which needs changing as it won't match anything | 21:29 |
| LjL | @lart elkbuntu | 21:29 |
| stdin | it's set as *!Server20@* in #u still, as I can't change it there, someone else should (hint ;) | 21:30 |
| jpatrick | PriceChild: ^ | 21:30 |
| jpatrick | no0tic: ping | 22:36 |
| no0tic | jpatrick, pong | 23:08 |
| jpatrick | no0tic: too late | 23:09 |
| no0tic | jpatrick, :( | 23:09 |
| jpatrick | no0tic: just some .it guy in -motu going off topic wanted to check it with you :) | 23:09 |
| no0tic | jpatrick, only 30 minutes of lag | 23:09 |
| no0tic | jpatrick, who? :) | 23:09 |
| m0nk_ | hey guys | 23:10 |
| m0nk_ | you know why im here | 23:10 |
| m0nk_ | think today is my lucky day, think my ban could get lifted? | 23:12 |
| Jack_Sparrow | was it ljl or ompaul that set it? | 23:23 |
| LjL | me | 23:24 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Didnt remember. | 23:24 |
| m0nk_ | Jack_Sparrow: it was LjL | 23:25 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Yea, Got it | 23:25 |
| Jack_Sparrow | What you did was so totally wrong... on so many levels... | 23:26 |
| LjL | m0nk_, we've talked already but i want to make doubly sure | 23:26 |
| m0nk_ | i know | 23:26 |
| LjL | m0nk_: you've read the guidelines carefully, and also !etiquette, haven't you? | 23:26 |
| m0nk_ | yes i know the guidelines, but i have not seen !etiquette | 23:27 |
| Jack_Sparrow | You have to know none of us will even hesitate to pull the trigger if you try anything like that again | 23:27 |
| m0nk_ | Jack_Sparrow: lol i know that now, im usually always in offtopic..but man did i pay for that | 23:27 |
| Seveas | I'll pull a dozen triggers | 23:27 |
| Seveas | (aka /cs lart) | 23:27 |
| Jack_Sparrow | :) | 23:27 |
| LjL | m0nk_, that is not paying, really | 23:28 |
| Seveas | LjL, you got of really, really cheap | 23:28 |
| m0nk_ | Seveas: i understand that | 23:28 |
| Seveas | consider yourself lucky | 23:28 |
| m0nk_ | only IRC channel i use is offtopic htough | 23:28 |
| m0nk_ | so i was kind of without that for a while | 23:28 |
| LjL | m0nk_: don't want to sound harsh, but being banned for - what, a week? - is what may happen the first time you do something like that, and we decide you've pretty much understood it wasn't a reasonable thing to do | 23:28 |
| Seveas | there's no turkey like a cold turkey m0nk_ | 23:28 |
| LjL | m0nk_: next time it well be a power of a week | 23:28 |
| m0nk_ | i understand | 23:29 |
| LjL | m0nk_: just want you to understand that. do check !etiquette | 23:29 |
| m0nk_ | LjL: ok | 23:29 |
| m0nk_ | LjL: i have read what ubotu had to say... | 23:32 |
| m0nk_ | and i understand the coc i have seen it many times | 23:32 |
| LjL | m0nk_: and i have lifted the ban | 23:32 |
| m0nk_ | thank you LjL, and dont worry i will behave | 23:32 |
| LjL | have fun | 23:33 |
| m0nk_ | same to you man | 23:33 |
