Toma-Seveas? it goes 1, 2 then 3. Plz note the number 212:11
SeveasToma-, auopi had the 212:12
Toma-Oh, thanks for including someone elses actions for my own12:12
elkbuntuToma-, if we had to give every person in a multi-participant conversation 3 strikes each, we'd need to be paid to run these channels12:13
elkbuntuif you're offering however, by all means12:13
Toma-is that an offer to be come an op? :)12:13
Toma-becuase bth, alot of stuff gets thrown at me that against the guidliens and the ops tend to let it fly12:14
Seveasno, the opposite12:14
elkbuntuToma-, no, it's an offer for you to give us money12:14
Toma-haha12:14
Toma-id pay for a fairer system, sure.12:14
elkbuntuToma-, there's a few dozen ops to pay. when do we start?12:15
elkbuntumind you, i'd be giving up a $42k/yr salary to do it, and i'm sure seveas is on a much higher pay rate than i am12:15
Toma-well let me get a list of the people that op by double standards and then we'll see how many people ill pay12:15
Seveaselkbuntu, dunno, what's an AU$ in € these days?12:16
elkbuntuToma-, the only double standard is the inability to monitor the channels at every minute in every day12:16
elkbuntuSeveas, 1.7euro to the aussie dollar12:16
Toma-oh yeh?12:16
Toma-let me dig up some logs where someone was calling me the c word in offtopic12:16
Seveaselkbuntu, yeah, i'm a bit higher up then, not much though12:16
jussi01Myrtti: hello!! :D12:16
jpatrickToma-: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-irc/+members12:16
stdinToma-: and your logs show an active op ignoring it?12:17
Toma-sure do.12:17
stdinthen you really should post those logs12:17
elkbuntuToma-, i believe it happened, no need for logs. i also know however that an op can be in a completely different place in a space of 2 minutes, and not have the time to read the past 10 lines of scrollback just to make sure everyone behaved while they were gone12:17
Toma-yeh im over it.12:20
elkbuntufigured he wouldnt have a comeback for that12:20
stdinI would have guessed that the op was there 5-10 mins before/after it happened and that constitutes them ignoring it to him12:21
elkbuntustdin, i'll guarantee it. i dont think these kids know how much work it is running a namespace12:23
jpatrickkids?12:23
stdinI don't think they get the meaning of "volunteer" either12:24
elkbuntujpatrick, toma is early 20s12:24

Bomfunkhi.15:21
LjLhi, can we help you?15:21
Bomfunkhm, no15:21
goukiLjL: Seveas told and we talked on PM. Now, if an OP tells me something about channel rules, VERY WELL. What I don't want, is some random guy telling me to leave.15:21
fooLjL: thanks.15:21
LjLBomfunk: why did you join your bot here...?15:21
Bomfunkmistake15:22
LjLgouki: he didn't tell you to leave as far as i can see... just to take your request elsewhere.15:22
LjLand all users are entitled to request that channel rules are respected15:22
LjLthat's not the operators' prerogative15:22
goukiVery well. And how come a private conversation ends up for discussion on -ops?15:23
LjLgouki: because it was pasted in #ubuntu15:24
LjLwhich, foo, is not the correct thing to do, by the way15:24
popey15:21:45 < gouki> LjL: Seveas told and we talked on PM. Now, if an OP tells me something about channel rules, VERY WELL. What I don't want, is some random guy telling me to leave.15:24
popeyi thought we were all equal on freenode :)15:24
fooLjL: Apologies, I wasn't aware of this channel. Now I know, won't happen again15:25
goukiLjL: So if someone comes to me and trash talks me ... As long as he posts A PRIVATE CONVERSATION on a ubuntu- public channel, it will end up for discussion?15:25
popeymeaning: if someone tells you you broke the rules, it doesn't matter whether they are OP, random guy or whatever, if they are right and you15:25
popey..are wrong, that's what matters15:25
goukis/he/me15:25
goukiBut very well. I believe I understood the message.15:26
goukiSorry to you, foo, for the harsh talk.15:26
goukiSorry to LjL for the trouble.15:26
LjLthere is a fine line between what concerns us and what doesn't. a private conversation usually doesn't concern us. foo, in my opinion, you should have settled your disagreements in private with gouki, not involve channels. and gouki, PM or not, i thought better of you thank answering someone in such a mood, to be very blunt, and then stating here that you'd accept that from an op but be abusive to someone else15:26
foogouki: No worries15:27
goukiVery well LjL; Everyone has their days, and it's hard for me to believe you're smiley and happy all of them.15:28
goukiBut that CAN'T be an excuse 15:28
goukiSo, like I said, sorry LjL for the trouble15:28
goukiAnd ONCE AGAIN, sorry for the harsh talk foo. Take care mate.15:28
* foo tips hat, np15:28
LjLgouki: no, i definitely have my bad days. i'm glad you understand your reactions may be due to being on a bad day15:29

goukiSeveas, LjL and foo, take care.15:29
