| Pici | Strawberryjam: Hello, how can we help you today? | 13:09 |
| Strawberryjam | hey there, i have been banned from #ubuntu, might be accidently | 13:10 |
| Pici | Let me take a look at our logs, hold on | 13:10 |
| Strawberryjam | i used MIRC power pack as recommended | 13:10 |
| Strawberryjam | and i think it did somthing automatically | 13:10 |
| Strawberryjam | ok thnx | 13:11 |
| Strawberryjam | btw...i am new to all this | 13:11 |
| Pici | Strawberryjam: When was the last time you were in #ubuntu? | 13:14 |
| Strawberryjam | about 2 days ago...i remember right clicking a users name, then i was muted i think...then banned | 13:14 |
| Pici | Strawberryjam: You pasted the definition of 'flatulent' into the channel. | 13:16 |
| Strawberryjam | yep...i remember that turned out to be flooding...not my intention at all | 13:16 |
| Pici | Did you mean to paste that at all? | 13:17 |
| Strawberryjam | i was looking for a response to someone that said he farted (lol | 13:17 |
| Strawberryjam | then that happened...had no idea it would paste it on diff lines | 13:18 |
| Pici | Strawberryjam: Can you Please read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines , #ubuntu is a support channel, its not for joking around, regardless of if other people are doing so. | 13:19 |
| Strawberryjam | i also think that my client must have done somthing when i got muted...i have no idea what | 13:19 |
| Strawberryjam | i understand that...its my major source of information, i am sorry | 13:19 |
| Pici | Strawberryjam: Please read those guidelines and when you are done you may rejoin #ubuntu. also take note of the channel topics here and in #ubuntu. | 13:20 |
| Strawberryjam | thank you...one more thing...could you recommend a secure irc client...the one i used was recommendedby a friend, but it might get me into trouble | 13:21 |
| Myrtti | on which os? | 13:24 |
| Myrtti | Linux, Windows? | 13:24 |
| Strawberryjam | linux and windows....i am using pidgin now in linux... | 13:24 |
| Myrtti | xchat is nice if you prefer qui | 13:25 |
| Myrtti | gui, even | 13:25 |
| Strawberryjam | ok...i'll take some time and check them out...thank you for your time, and help | 13:26 |
| Strawberryjam | bye | 13:26 |
| Myrtti | bye | 13:26 |
| Pici | LjL: I was just thinking the same thing. | 13:47 |
| Pici | And now it seems they brough a few more with them. | 13:48 |
| LjL | Pici: they're still talking crap | 13:49 |
| LjL | Pici: [14:49:28] <apanknen> anybody got any good porn sites <- reason of the kick | 13:50 |
| Pici | LjL: *shakes head*, do they realize that they are muted? | 13:51 |
| LjL | i don't think so | 13:51 |
| jrib | what's with sudobash? | 13:51 |
| LjL | jrib: uhm i banned him yesterday | 13:52 |
| Pici | 08:51:12 <?sudobash> you need to take the second ban down off or i will just keep using proxy servers | 13:52 |
| Jucato | :) | 13:52 |
| dgjones | Was just coming to point out sudobash's comments about a ban, but I see Pici just mentioned it, I'll go in that case | 13:53 |
| Pici | :) | 13:53 |
| LjL | [14:53:37] <sudobash> dude I help people a lot with Ubuntu | 13:54 |
| LjL | [14:53:56] <LjL> come to discuss in #ubuntu-ops if you want | 13:54 |
| LjL | [14:54:09] <sudobash> and I have some strong ties at Dell | 13:54 |
| LjL | sudobash, ban evasion, by policy, is completely unacceptable. since you help a lot as you said, you certainly should have known that, as well as the fact that #ubuntu is far from the right place to appeal a ban. | 13:55 |
| sudobash | ok fine i will go to efnet if ubuntu isnt the right place to help people who use ubuntu | 13:56 |
| sudobash | which it is | 13:56 |
| LjL | sudobash, as you wish | 13:57 |
| sudobash | man i have used ubuntu for 1 1/2 years now and I help as much as I can... and there a lot of people in there | 13:57 |
| sudobash | you think i want to be banned from the largest freenode channel where I can help out someone? | 13:58 |
| LjL | sudobash, i don't try to "think" what you want or do not want to do | 13:59 |
| sudobash | i should have not said a thing and i would still be in there helping | 13:59 |
| LjL | i just look at what is acceptable behavior and what is not | 13:59 |
| sudobash | better off not knowing my IP anyways the way people talk here about laws, rules and enforcement | 14:00 |
| sudobash | should have been using a proxy the whole time | 14:00 |
| sudobash | but you put a block on my nick now | 14:01 |
| LjL | sudobash, i invited you here in case you wanted to discuss, not to make a pointless monologue | 14:01 |
| Myrtti | what on earth is this | 14:01 |
| sudobash | yeah could I please have the ban lifted so i can continue to be of some use to Ubuntu users? | 14:02 |
| LjL | sudobash, you certainly know that open proxies are not even allowed by freenode | 14:02 |
| LjL | sudobash: no, not at this stage, and ban evasion didn't help it at all either | 14:02 |
| LjL | hi LukeL, can we help you? | 14:02 |
| LukeL | hi, just curious | 14:02 |
| sudobash | i wasnt sure where to ask for it | 14:03 |
| Myrtti | LukeL: did you read the topic? | 14:03 |
| LukeL | nope, now I have cyas | 14:03 |
| LjL | sudobash: well, i think you've been around long enough to know about this channel, but still, even if you didn't | 14:04 |
| LjL | [14:48] <sudobash> well... i got around your ban | 14:04 |
| LjL | [14:51] <sudobash> you need to take the second ban down off or i will just keep using proxy servers | 14:04 |
| LjL | [14:52] <sudobash> how bout an op taking off the second ban down on the list | 14:04 |
| LjL | [14:52] <sudobash> or you might as well ban this proxy too | 14:04 |
| LjL | this is not "asking", this is "threatening" | 14:04 |
| sudobash | why doesnt freenode prevent proxy connects then? | 14:04 |
| LjL | sudobash: well, i'm not freenode staff, you may want to ask one of them, such as nalioth | 14:05 |
| sudobash | man i have been around but I havent read all the rules | 14:05 |
| Myrtti | freenode != ubuntu, ubuntu != freenode | 14:05 |
| LjL | sudobash: it doesn't take reading the rules to know that the way you handled it is called threatening | 14:05 |
| sudobash | well i didnt mean to come off like that | 14:05 |
| sudobash | i should have found this channel | 14:06 |
| Pici | What about: 2008-03-04T16:41:48 <sudobash> wow and people talk about windows apps and shit... I help people as much as I can here but Im sick of the constant nazi regime act | 14:06 |
| sudobash | and asked | 14:06 |
| LjL | Pici: well, that was why i banned in the first place, after i had asked him and others, *kindly*, to bring a couple of offtopic discussions to -offtopic. | 14:06 |
| Myrtti | eeyyyyygghhh | 14:06 |
| Pici | LjL: I'm not questioning you ;) | 14:06 |
| Myrtti | that's a nasty line there, sudobash | 14:07 |
| sudobash | your right I probably shouldnt be allow back in there but I should take to freenode people about proxy detection | 14:07 |
| LjL | Pici: yet i'm explaining, always helps | 14:07 |
| sudobash | allowed | 14:07 |
| LjL | sudobash, proxy detection is not an exact science. | 14:08 |
| LjL | that doesn't allow you to dodge bans just because you've been lucky enough to manage to evade the technical measures put against it. | 14:08 |
| sudobash | yeah thats true... i was doing it in high school to get around their blocks and they had no clue | 14:08 |
| sudobash | i didnt think about i just did it not thinking i was breaking a rule but i knew i shouldnt have joined ubuntu... I am just sick of some of the people in there acting like they are better than everyone else... I mean help some noobs out dont bash them and each other just because you are disagreeing about something stupid. | 14:11 |
| sudobash | but anyway Im sure you are all like what a waste of time | 14:12 |
| LjL | sudobash, i wasn't disagreeing about anything, i was simply asking to bring "windows apps and shit" to #ubuntu-offtopic, where it belongs. that's my duty as an operator. | 14:12 |
| sudobash | i understand that and i was disrespectful at the time so i apologize. | 14:12 |
| sudobash | so like after a month would you consider taking the ban off? | 14:15 |
| LjL | sudobash: yes | 14:16 |
| sudobash | cool I appreciate that | 14:18 |
| LjL | sudobash: meanwhile, do check out the guidelines if, as you said, you haven't before | 14:18 |
| LjL | !etiquette > sudobash (sudobash, see the private message from Ubotu) | 14:19 |
| sudobash | roger | 14:19 |
| Pici | Myrtti: around? | 14:21 |
| Myrtti | yup | 14:21 |
| LjL | sudobash: and please try to keep in mind that there is no way that you'll *always* agree with what the ops do. people have differing opinions about how a channel should be run, but that never justifies being abusive. | 14:22 |
| Pici | Myrtti: What do you think of the current -ot conversation? | 14:22 |
| LjL | they're, uhm, talking about marriage? | 14:22 |
| Pici | I meant the marriage jokes about women.... | 14:22 |
| LjL | i don't think i've seen the two main partecipants in -ot before | 14:24 |
| Myrtti | yup | 14:24 |
| Pici | They don't bother me particularly (not very funny imo though), I just wanted to make sure that someone of the female persuasion was comfortable with them. | 14:24 |
| Myrtti | they're just so old and boring I don't even register them as anti-womenish | 14:25 |
| Pici | Ten four. | 14:25 |
| sudobash | very true | 14:26 |
| sudobash | so yall watch #ubuntu and talk about what they are talking about in there to decide among the @'s what is offtopic and what not? lol thats pretty cool.... | 14:26 |
| Myrtti | sure they would be a bit offensive, but still they're so old and boring that I wouldn't bother even to lift a finger... (nowait I've done so several times to type this message) | 14:26 |
| sudobash | may I ask what the bots are coded with? | 14:26 |
| LjL | sudobash, not always | 14:26 |
| LjL | sudobash, ubotu is a customized supybot | 14:27 |
| Myrtti | borderline cases are discussed | 14:27 |
| LjL | Pici: -.-. ..-. -- | 14:27 |
| sudobash | one second | 14:27 |
| LjL | two too | 14:28 |
| Pici | Amaranth: el-kbuntu among others requested it be removed. | 14:30 |
| LjL | Pici: what? | 14:31 |
| Pici | LjL: twss | 14:31 |
| LjL | ah | 14:31 |
| Myrtti | excellent | 14:31 |
| sudobash | could i possibly do some free scripting or c++ to gain access to #ubuntu again? | 14:32 |
| LjL | sudobash, no, a ban is a ban and if we just removed bans on request they'd be no use, yet you can keep helping Ubuntu in many other ways: you can file and triage bug reports, you can answer the forums or support requests, for instance | 14:33 |
| LjL | !support | 14:33 |
| ubotu | The official ubuntu support channel is #ubuntu. Also see http://ubuntu.com/support and http://ubuntuforums.org | 14:33 |
| Myrtti | and the ban will be removed in due time. | 14:33 |
| sudobash | wow how long did i prolong it with the ban evasion? | 14:34 |
| LjL | sudobash: it didn't help. i can't give you a number, we don't have a table with ban lengths... | 14:34 |
| sudobash | alright well I'll leave you all alone | 14:35 |
| sudobash | umm i have a question... some how i managed to play an flv with VLC but for some reason the VLC gui wasnt visible anywhere not even in a terminal and the gnome monitor says that VLC was sleeping and using 0% of CPU... normally it uses over 10% even if minimized... is there a way to recreate this (it was an accident)... the video wasnt playing but the audo was... | 15:17 |
| sudobash | like a way to force a process to sleep to minimize cpu usage | 15:18 |
| Pici | sudobash: This isn't a support channel. | 15:18 |
| sudobash | i know i cant go there i figured you all might be interested in processes that behave strangely operating in sleeping mode and not using cpu but still operating somewhat normally | 15:20 |
| sudobash | or maybe it was just a fluke | 15:20 |
| sudobash | interesting though if you could get your cpu to do something without directly doing it i couldnt really explain it... | 15:21 |
| sudobash | sorry | 15:21 |
| Pici | I removed the banforward, made it a regular ban. | 15:23 |
| jdong | *cough* compiz still renders the video in the background | 15:28 |
