[09:18] gnomefreak, he is banned for two days; extend it? [09:18] Myrtti: i dropped out of java class :) [09:19] soundray, he cursed you out? [09:19] 2 days is fine for now, he needs to understand running his mouth will not be tolerated [09:19] kindofabuzz saw fit to send me a pm saying "You little bitch, you called ops on me" [09:19] hmmm clicking the x doesnt close the app :( [09:20] send him here everyone leave and take logging bots with you :) [09:20] thanks soundray, and sorry he did that [09:21] * gnomefreak wonder what he does next [09:21] Not to worry, bazhang, thanks for your help. [09:21] soundray: if it happens again let me know please [09:21] soundray, thanks for all your help :) [09:22] soundray: how many minutes ago he pm'd you? [09:22] Myrtti: must be about 10 minutes now [09:23] well after he left here [09:23] i would say an op pm him telling him to stop but that might full him even more [09:23] as it's 1123 now, and he left here at 1100 sharpish... [09:23] I'd say drop an extra day on him for that [09:23] make it 3? [09:23] okay Myrtti [09:24] see what he says in two days time and then at least one more day [09:24] it's one thing to give stupid advice and to curse [09:24] aggression against several of the best helpers though [09:24] this is the same rmrf guy? [09:24] yes gnomefreak [09:25] he damn sure knew what he was doing than not a doubt in my mind [09:25] oh for sure [09:25] * gnomefreak was on reboot when he did it so i wasnt positive now i am [09:25] I've got to go; work :( [09:26] not understanding what you've done stupidly after being told and agression towards people advicing you... [09:26] that just sort of... [09:26] proves that you're not only giving stupid advice [09:26] hes a moron [09:27] we're not allowed to say that anymore :( [09:27] see you later folks [09:27] oh wait i cant well i jsut did [09:27] elkbuntu: \o/ I didn't say it :-D [09:27] just implemented it [09:27] hehe [09:27] elkbuntu: eh its true [09:27] :-D [09:28] gnomefreak, it is. yes. but we as ops are not allowed to say stuff which $non_offensive_word_meaning_trolls might get upset at [09:28] yes, this makes it *really* hard to do our jobs. talk to the CC about this. [09:29] newspeak [09:29] elkbuntu: i was at meeting and honestly if he didnt do half of what he did within 15 minutes i wouldnt have said it. if someone brings me up infront of CC ill bring logs [09:30] gnomefreak, doesnt matter. ops have about as many rights are parents do. [09:30] but i will try to be nice from now on ;) but rmrf is NO excuse for anything IMHO [09:30] i can beat the users? [09:30] oh wait uonly if under 5 :( [09:30] only* [09:31] eh? what crazy place do you live where corporal punishment is still valid? [09:31] USA [09:31] geez. you're lucky [09:31] parents get charged and sued in australia :( [09:31] depending on how you define that. i can hit my kids but kids now a days will call the cops [09:32] elkbuntu: so do we but i dont think one case has gotten anywhere in the high courts [09:32] gnomefreak, the CC is way more kid sympathetic than the court system [09:33] they're so scared that someone who makes physical threats might stop using ubuntu that they forsake the dozens that the bully scares away [09:34] well the way i see if 5 people typed that command in it makes everyone look bad so i have every right to be pissed off IMHO it doesnt happen often but it does happen to everyone [09:34] unless it's an op who has been abused all day by users and makes a freudian slip [09:34] then the op is hauled [09:35] I'm hapy the speach detection of Finnish language is so poor [09:35] happy, even [09:36] if you folks knew how much and often I curse in real life...

[12:00] I'm going to bed though :) [12:04] elkbuntu: of course, the real solution is to just prohibit $non_offensive_word_meaning_trolls from attending the meetings. [12:04] elkbuntu: they certainly never bothered to respond to emails, at least, to all who were CC'd. [12:05] even if they did, others would have time to look up whether they were right, or on crack. *g* [12:06] or to take a step back, and look at how we govern the channels, which would include some of mneptok's ideas. [12:06] Hobbsee, if response and attention to mails is a prereq for meetings, then i think certain members of the CC would have been prohibited last week [12:07] elkbuntu: sure, but they weren't making the complaint. [12:07] not to mention, we're already told we govern too harshly, and are already pressured to be kinder to troublemakers. [12:08] they mentioned nothing about newbies, though.

[12:19] * jussi01 takes the rock and drops it on Seeker` :P [12:19] bazhang: unsure. the CC thought that $non_offensive_word_meaning_trolls were dealt with too harshly, and seeing as that guy counts as one... [12:19] it wouldn't be unheard of [12:19] :( [12:20] jussi01: careful! you'll crush him! [12:20] jussi01: just imagine what the CC would say to that! [12:20] hehe [12:20] although, maybe not. it would class as a death threat, i guess. [12:20] if that was too harsh after all that he did, then the channel is essentially handed over to those that seek to disrupt it [12:21] bazhang: ahhh, you're new to this. the politics of the past few months have been looking at exactly that. [12:21] bazhang: which is why seveas and such quit. [12:21] I remember the good old days, when you could call a troll a troll, and ban then [12:21] s/then/them [12:21] :P [12:22] hehe [12:22] Hobbsee, may as well fold up #ubuntu channels if that is the case [12:23] Please, can we leave this one again, im tired of it... :/ [12:23] bazhang: or leave them in the control of people who *do* believe that that's the right way to moderate. [12:23] sorry jussi01 ; never heard it before, I will stop now [12:24] sniff [12:24] * bazhang hands jussi01 a tissue [12:24] jussi01, as much as it hurts, it cannot and will not go away [12:25] ++ [12:25] elkbuntu: what, you mean that sweeping things under the carpet doesn't work? [12:25] elkbuntu: true, however I continually hear/see exactly the same things repeated over and over again, and to me its not going anywhere. thats my real problem. [12:27] jussi01, we have no way to take things anywhere. if we do we're either incompetent or harrassing. [12:27] repeat cycle. [12:28] sigh... [12:28] :( [12:28] elkbuntu: I understand your point. :( [12:29] * elkbuntu needs icecream [12:29] brb [12:29] it'll end up with the same thing that is happening with kids in the UK: Noone (not even the police) have any power to do anything about them, in case they are "hurt" or "insulted", so they just run wild [12:29] elkbuntu: good idea [12:36] Seeker`, pretty much [12:37] as i said before, we've about as much stance as a parent [12:37] it's all our fault when the channels turn to feces, but we're not allowed to do a thing to stop it [12:37] except parents are not volunteers [12:37] bazhang, they volunteered when they did the deed [12:38] oof [12:38] * jussi01 goes off to make an #ubuntu-ops-politics channel... [12:38] haha [12:38] heh [12:42] * jussi01 sighs at the guy looking for browsers "like internet explorer"... [12:42] jussi01: Really? My reaction was more of a scream. [12:42] Pici: hehe, Im to tired to scream [12:43] "Linux doesnt have any browsers that crappy, sorry" [12:43] bwahahah [12:45] rofl [12:46] I believe parents are still allowed to smack kids in the UK [12:53] Seeker`: a news report I saw last week suggested smacking = illegal as of this year [12:55] if not, grounds for child abuse investigations and defamations [13:00] wtf [13:00] jrib I tried your new and improved warning; it worked like a charm :) [13:01] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smacking#Legal_situation [13:01] * Pici smacks Seeker` [13:02] IMO there is nothing wrong with smacking kids that misbehave - as long as it is done "reasonably" (i.e. only using hands, not hard enough to leave a mark / bruise, not done excessively) [13:02] phonebook? [13:02] bazhang: ? [13:03] bazhang: good to hear [13:03] leaves no marks :) [13:03] my parents used a wooden spoon [13:03] haha [13:03] bazhang: I would hope you dont have a phonebook for a hand [13:03] that *would* make typing a bit tedious [13:03] just a little [13:04] I was smacked as a kid, and I'm fine *twitch* [13:05] a collegue of mine went to a catholic school, he (like me) is left handed, apprantly, it's the "devils" hands, and every time he'd done something with his left hand, eat, drink, write, etc the nuns would smack his hands with a thick ruler, [13:05] he is now ambidexterous [13:05] Seeker`, i'd challenge that everyone in this channel received corporal punishment [13:05] I certainly got a smack in my youth [13:05] anyone who didnt is clearly a kiddie ;) [13:07] ikonia, i gather you were never subjected to church? [13:08] * Seeker` is left handed [13:08] since when does church smack people? [13:08] Hobbsee, yeah, too kind. lets leave this now i think. [13:09] * Hobbsee hasn't been to such a one, but OK. [13:09] Hobbsee: few years ago now [13:09] Hobbsee, um, you missed my point. never mind. [13:11] elkbuntu: nope, not a religious family, his tale was quite shocking to me [13:12] ikonia: I guess that this was from the time when corporal punishment was allowed in all schools? [13:13] lefties unite! [13:14] * jussi01 is getting his new pet on thursday :D [13:14] (just to be a little more ot) [13:14] kitteh? [13:14] nope... [13:14] yeah, this is a little offtopic [13:15] puppeh? [13:15] its an "unusual" pet :D [13:15] ooh [13:15] turtle?! [13:15] Seeker`: yes, [13:15] * jussi01 goes to grab a photo [13:15] jussi01: armadillo [13:15] when I was young, the number of left handed people was roughly 10%. apparently it is closer to 50% now, as people aren't forced to use their right hands to write any more [13:16] ikonia, is your irssi playing up again? [13:16] here he is: http://imagebin.ca/view/6sQ7bW.html [13:16] :D [13:16] elkbuntu: a little yes, but I think I've found the fixes [13:16] Seeker`, left handedness is a genetic recessive trait. it's not likely to be anything less than 25% [13:16] jussi01: Hedgehog? [13:17] er, anything more* [13:17] Pici: yeps :) [13:17] jussi01: cute [13:17] :D [13:17] * jussi01 is smiling from ear to ear :D [13:18] elkbuntu: Both my parents are right handed, both me and my brother are left handed, so it is possible, even if it is unlikely [13:19] Seeker`, that's a statistically redundant number to base the trend on. [13:20] Gregor Mendel [13:20] indeed [13:21] although they're pretty certain he fudged the results to get his message across, as he also had what would have been an inaccurate number to derive the conclusion from. [14:08] yeah he definitely fudged the numbers *AND* did an exhaustive search. [14:08] the traits he chose to document were the ONLY traits of pea plants that follow mendelian genetics [14:23] poopuser's ident family friendly? [14:24] quite. sane and sensible, no. [14:24] not his nick-->the ident is handjob [14:25] borderline case [14:29] yeah [14:30] Eh, I wouldnt go out of the way to ask him to change it. [14:30] however, suggesting a change of ident for future uses of the ubuntu namespace should catalyse them either one way or the other. [14:30] we're told to catalyse. nobody says which way. [14:34] Goos-fraba.. [14:34] eh? [14:35] anger management (movie) [14:56] * Pici cleans out some accidental factoids [14:57] !idiot [14:58] !lag [14:58] see mirror [14:58] You have lag, I don't have lag [14:59] ubottu why? [14:59] Factoid why? not found [14:59] hmm turned off [15:00] !why [15:00] Because. [15:00] used to be a bit funnier [15:03] it needs a response randomiser [15:03] we could get it to argue like a toddler [15:04] @login [15:04] elkbuntu: The operation succeeded. [15:04] yay! [15:04] !redmond [15:04] redmond is where bad software is born [15:04] no, why is Why not? [15:04] :( [15:05] !no, why is Why not? [15:05] I know nothing about why yet, elkbuntu [15:05] * elkbuntu raises an eyebrow [15:05] elkbuntu: I moved it to be an #ubuntu-offtopic factoid only. [15:05] oh. [15:05] !redmond's not really cool [15:05] ikonia: Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [15:06] seems likley to provoke response like !vista [15:07] yeah. it's not like every single piece of software from the geographical location of 'redmond' is bad either [15:07] !botsnack [15:07] Yum! Err, I mean, APT! [15:07] !opsnack [15:07] Chocolate! And Peanuts! [15:08] !usersnack [15:08] Are peanut husks ok? The ops ate the chocolates and peanuts already... [15:08] :) [15:08] !lolops [15:08] Teh lolops r in ur chanelz, wotchin u mizbehav [15:11] !no, redmond is a city in the state of Washington in the United States. Nothing else interesting about it. Seriously, nothing. [15:11] I'll remember that elkbuntu [15:11] :) [15:11] how's that, ikonia? :) [15:14] better [15:14] as least it doesn't slate anyone [15:15] yeah. i'd rather have something and not have every idiot trying to be the person to 'come up' with 'something funny' [15:15] !no redmond is something funny [15:15] In #ubuntu-ops, wgrant said: !no redmond is something funny [15:16] har. [15:18] !no, redmond is not relevent to my interests. [15:18] I'll remember that elkbuntu [15:18] * elkbuntu grins [15:18] that better still? [15:19] I'd remove it from the db [15:20] i'd rather not have it blank, unless you want people trying to be the 'champion' to add it [15:22] anyway, im off to bed. peace [15:22] hmm, what happens if you say "is " [15:23] !tonyyarusso is [15:23] I'll remember that, elkbuntu [15:23] !tonyyarusso [15:23] * elkbuntu waits for the bot to die [15:23] !test [15:23] Failed [15:23] SIGSEGV [15:24] nice, however, now if someone really wants the reaction we'll have instead: [15:24] !tonyyarusso [15:24] !tonyyarusso [15:24] ... [15:24] !no, tonyyarusso is weird. [15:24] please see above [15:24] :( [15:25] !no, tonyyarusso is weird. [15:25] I'll remember that elkbuntu [15:25] !tonyyarusso [15:25] tonyyarusso is weird. [15:25] hahaha [15:25] !elkbuntu [15:25] elkbuntu is cute [15:25] !pici [15:25] pici is stuck in a factoid factory! Send help! [15:26] !ompaul [15:26] ompaul is well ompaul, don't get me started about that guy [15:26] !seveas [15:26] Factoid seveas not found [15:26] :( [15:26] really :( [15:26] Heck, that could actually be his factoid now. [15:26] !no, seveas is :( [15:26] I know nothing about seveas yet, elkbuntu [15:27] !seveas is :( [15:27] But seveas already means something else! [15:27] 404 seveas not found [15:27] !seveas [15:27] Factoid seveas not found [15:27] you are a stupid stupid bot [15:27] !-seveas [15:27] !seveas is :( [15:27] !no seveas is :( [15:27] I know nothing about seveas yet, Pici [15:27] is it picking : as EOL [15:27] doing the no before it was added is what trips it up [15:28] !seveas is \:( [15:28] But seveas already means something else! [15:28] anyone good with CSS? I need to figure out what conditional I need for IE(7) (works in FF) [15:28] !seveas [15:28] :( [15:28] :D [15:28] but :( [15:28] It was messing up because !seveas used to point to his repo info. [15:28] Had to !unforget first [15:28] ah [15:29] !hobbsee [15:29] I phear the stick so shhhhh [15:29] * Hobbsee attacks elkbuntu with the Long Pointy Stick of DOOM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!™ [15:29] * elkbuntu cheers [15:29] * wgrant throws ubotu at Hobbsee [15:30] * Hobbsee eats it [15:30] :o [16:07] -16:03:10- ~s~ Irssi: Starting query in freenode with arzu883 [16:07] -16:03:10- arzu883: çok tatlýyým tadýma bakmak istersen gel :)) tatli_buse17 [16:07] arzu833 is in #ubuntu [16:09] no idea what it says, but there's a :) so it must be benign. [16:10] #kubuntu-kde4 is still separate from #kubuntu? [16:13] yes [16:13] hrm === Seeker`_ is now known as Seeker` [16:31] .. [16:31] sorry about that [16:32] You should be. [16:32] Pici: the plan is that #kubuntu-kde4 will disappear with the release of intrepid [16:32] jussi01: Ah, I thought that was the plan for Hardy. [16:33] Pici: :) [16:57] bazhang: you're too quick today [16:58] Pici, his language was abusive [16:58] bazhang: no, I mean faster than me ;) [16:58] oh haha [16:58] Pici wants to ban some people :P [17:00] you bad people. [17:00] you'll be catalysed soon, on the evils of banning. [17:02] * Seeker` facedesks, "I really dont like the word catalyse in this context" [17:02] haha [17:02] s/catalyse/$non_offensive_word_for_catalyse/ [17:03] * jussi01 hands Pici the long pointy stick of doom [17:03] mediate is much better [17:03] * Hobbsee sues jussi01 for copyright infringement [17:03] catalyse sounds too much like a buzzword [17:03] Sounds like a chemistry experiment. [17:03] Seeker`: mediation requires changes from both parties, doesn't it? [17:04] Hobbsee: you can, I stole the stick from you to give to him [17:04] Hobbsee: It doesn't _require_ changes from both sides [17:04] Seeker`: just usually involves it? [17:05] Hobbsee: It usually involves two or more people coming to some mutual agreement [17:06] In this case, the channel ops and the $not_a_troll [17:06] Why do I always read mediate as meditate ? [17:07] right [17:07] it is possible that the ops will conceed that the users behaviour was acceptable, and it is possible the user will accept they are wrong [17:52] soundray called the ops in #ubuntu (rso swearing) [19:02] Chanserv.py doesnt give any feedback when you op/kick/whatever people, right? [19:03] i.e. it just does it? [19:08] nevermind [19:12] /cs o,d,v,dv are all in Chanserv.pl now, working on the other stuff now. [19:17] pl or py? [19:17] pl, for irssi [19:17] ack [19:53] danbhfive called the ops in #ubuntu (frawfraw) [19:54] Tm_T: ping [19:55] lovely [19:56] praet called the ops in #ubuntu (mob) [19:56] Tm_T: a91-155-238-61.elisa-laajakaista.fi [19:56] klined [20:02] Myrtti: ? [20:02] Tm_T: there was a troublemaking ban evader from that IP ( which was klined ) [20:02] ah ok [20:02] Why are we letting Tm_T know specifically? [20:03] Pici: because I take it as a personal insult if someone from .fi is being an ass [20:03] and because I'm not active in -fi [20:03] sorry. [20:03] Myrtti: If I felt like that about americans, I'd feel pretty insulted. [20:04] Pici: Finland is not only the native country of ssh, irc and linxu, but also a country with 5+ million inhabitans [20:04] inhabitants [20:04] linux, even [20:04] damn. need sleep [20:15] nalioth: same person was just back [20:17] we've got problems :( [20:17] freenode? [20:17] :( [20:18] no, us [20:18] * nalioth was in #ubuntu-ops last time he looked [20:18] that finnish troll keeps recycling his modem [20:19] can anyone /who #ubuntu for a91-155-*.elisa-laajakaista.fi ? [20:21] huh? The person was at a91-155-238-61.elisa-laajakaista.fi for each event [20:22] Pici: no, i've klined two addresses so far from there [20:23] anon@ [20:23] anon@ [20:23] n=anon@a91-155-238-61.elisa-laajakaista.fi = mob, frawfraw, and blakie according to my /whoising anyway [20:23] sigh [20:24] * jussi01 hugs Myrtti, I feel your pain. :/ [20:25] * Pici wishes more people here were nice [20:29] hrm, he left, but in #ubuntu-mobile (might be one to watch for) [20:29] [21:59:44] i like fucking hot and sexy girls!!!!!!!!! :'( [20:29] [21:59:47] <-- chemboy (n=chemboy@6532223hfc07.tampabay.res.rr.com) has left #ubuntu-mobile [20:41] christel: if you are around, could do with your help in #ubuntu-artwork [20:42] we have a troll in there: emotionalwhitema: WANTED ! single white female 17 to 70 with red hair(blonde will do) a high I.Q. and good morals----freckles are a plus [20:43] Ok, he got bored and left, but probably worth keeping an eye out for. [20:44] jussi01: i might now an op in htere [20:44] there [20:44] hes just not answering [20:45] gnomefreak: I just checked the access list ;) [20:45] jussi01: is asac on it? [20:45] no [20:46] only seveas, troy_s christe.l and kwii [20:46] ah ok [20:47] funny, i remember that nick from a while back. [20:56] jussi01: why are you asking for c h r i s t e l? [20:56] nalioth: she is on the access list for that chan... [20:56] jussi01: the irc council has access in _all_ official Ubuntu community channels [20:57] nalioth: how so? the access list had 4 people on it as I listed earlier [20:58] jussi01: Group Contacts have de facto access in any channel their group covers [20:58] you are far more likely to get me than c h r i s t e l [20:58] nalioth: ok. so what was the correct way of dealing with that? Do you have access in there? [20:58] and it just puts more clutter on her radar ( that is not her concern ) [20:58] jussi01: you ask in here [20:59] or note there is a problem in here [20:59] jdub is not familiar with our policies and put c h r i s t e l on the ACL for some weird reason [20:59] ok [21:02] nalioth: ok, so if need be, you can actually do something about situations like this? [21:04] why am i getting messe dup pms :( [21:05] messed up even [21:05] gnomefreak: like?

[21:47] ompaul: you around? [21:47] gnomefreak, only in spirit [21:47] :) [21:48] ompaul: do you still have that mutt guide?

[22:19] FloodBot3 called the ops in #ubuntu-ops-monitor (CTCP/NOTICE) [22:35] You guys may wish to consider an extended duration of +R [22:39] as opposed to +r ?

[23:20] nalioth, blow the whistle :) [23:20] He seems nice enough in PM, but quite insistent on putting across the message that he is trolling intentionally. [23:20] tell him that that behaviour is not welcome [23:21] except on DALnet [23:21] who will take all the users they can get. [23:21] [23:39] hehe
