tritiummneptok: was phenom getting out of hand in /query?01:06
mneptokno, i just don't appreciate the snarky comments on-channel to other users01:06
tritiumI missed the latest.01:06
tritiumBut I agree, in general.01:07
nikruda kick seemed right.01:07
mneptokhe's in /query now01:07
mneptokand he's banforwarded here. or should be01:07
mneptok--floodlet--01:08
mneptok 21:05 [         phenom(n=Civility@unaffiliated/phenom)]  Ok.01:08
mneptok 21:06 [msg(        phenom)]  look, i asked nicely.01:08
mneptok 21:06 [msg(        phenom)]  whether i like the rules, or you like them, is immaterial01:08
mneptok 21:06 [msg(        phenom)]  they are the rules, everyone is expected to follow them01:08
mneptok 21:06 [msg(        phenom)]  and that means doing so without making a ton of snarky comments01:08
mneptokhe's been told the ban will be lifted tomorrow. maybe he'll take this time to think through his actions ...01:10
mneptokBAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! :/01:10

ompaulI just banned *jesus* using chanserv from #ubuntu +1 and offtopic on the grounds that some idiots think it is fun to be disrespectful to certain religions for whatever reasons - in the spirit of ubuntu that kind of thing is not to be encouraged 12:18
ompaulexamples in the last few hours in #ubuntu are as follows: jesusccs infernal_jesus Crazymethjesus   and for those who don't speak english as a first language that last one was Crazy Meth ... right so and the last one was just Jesus who appears to live in sweden if the domain name is to be believed12:27
jdonglovely usernames....12:28
jdong08:18 <+ompaul> I just banned *jesus* using chanserv f12:29

neopsychehello.. please can anyone help me.. i am still banned from #ubuntu after more than 24 hours.18:57
ompaulneopsyche, why were you banned?18:59
ompaulthat will really help19:01
neopsycheSomeone said i was (Being argumentative) also .. i was very frustrated and in caps said something along the lines of PLEASE EVERYONE STOP TELLING ME TO BUY A ROUTER AS IF I WANTED TO SPEND EXTRA MONEY ON XP AND A ROUTER I WOULD NOT BE HERE TRYING TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO CONFIGURE  UBUNTU TO DO THAT... this after about 4 people told me to purchase a router and about 5 hours trying to figure out...19:03
neopsyche...how to get the hardware working including supplying diagrams which were "too vague" if I remember correctly.. Out of frustration .. i also returned the same message about etiquete to the op.. who promptly banned me.. I apologies for my attitude.. but am only human too.. could someone please unban me.19:03
ompaulneopsyche, what do you want to achieve?19:04
ompaulor did you want to achieve19:04
neopsycheto access internet on my laptop using its wireless card.19:04
Seveasompaul, the impossible19:05
Seveasas he was told quite a few times19:05
Seveasyet he insisted on annoying19:05
ompaulneopsyche, sorry you wanted to make ubuntu a wireless ap? and use some other box to do that down stream ...19:05
neopsychehow is it impossible.. i dont think people like mark shuttleworth would agree with you.. he has already been to space .. and people said it was impossible to go to the moon too :-)19:06
neopsycheno.. i wanted to get the internet on my laptop using the wireless card and ubuntu on my main pc as an AP19:06
ompaulconnect down stream 19:06
neopsycheoh/...19:06
neopsycheyeah..19:06
neopsychesorry19:06
neopsychewireless AP19:06
neopsychenot app19:06
Seveasneopsyche, it's those kinds of stupid arguments that make the ban not go away19:06
neopsycheyes.. you were correct.19:07
Seveasneopsyche, this is not a support channel, is there anything else?19:07
neopsycheSeveas, banning someone because they refused to take the advice of someone?19:07
ompaulneopsyche, spend a couple of euro  or dollars or whatever on an access point  -- IRC is not where you will be helped with something like that19:07
neopsycheThey said I must buy a router.. i wanted to get linux to do the routing instead.19:07
neopsycheThats fine...19:08
Seveasneopsyche, no, you wanted linux to be the access point instead of ad hoc mode19:08
Seveasnow stop asking for support in here. If you have nothing else to discuss, please see the /topic19:09
neopsycheIf someone says to me .. the chances are nobody is going to help me .. thats fine. I understand that. But when someone doesnt want to use a different solution .. rather just say.. I have no solution for that other than a router. And thats the end of it.19:09
neopsycheNot repeatedly telling me to buy a router.19:09
neopsycheinstead of saying .. i have looked at the technical difficulties and beleive it is beyond the scope of my capabilites... that is also fine.19:10
Seveasneopsyche, that repeat yourself game didn't work yesterday in #ubuntu, it won't work in here19:10
LjL-Tempi don't think a wireless card can, by hardware, act as an AP at all19:10
neopsycheBut repeatedly telling someone to buy a router.. that just makes people frustrated when that is not their final goal.. sort of like on a basic level.. telling someone to get an apple when they are trying to figure out how to grow an orange tree during a time when oranges are scarce.. they dont want an apple. ;-)19:11
ompaulneopsyche, so I think you have your answer / can't be done with normal equipment - in so far as any of us know 19:11
ompaulneopsyche, please shh -- ohh well 19:11
Seveasneopsyche, this is not a support channel. period19:11
