| liassist | hello, i was told to come to this channel to upgrade to a staffer (i have read "code of conduct") | 12:42 |
|---|---|---|
| Ekushey | liassist, PriceChild is the person to talk to :) | 12:44 |
| PriceChild | liassist: to upgrade to a staffer? | 12:44 |
| Pici | liassist: 'upgrade to a staffer'? | 12:44 |
| PriceChild | liassist: do you mean talk to a staffer to get a cloak? | 12:44 |
| liassist | no to become a staffer | 12:45 |
| PriceChild | what kind of staffer? do you mean channel operator? | 12:45 |
| liassist | yes | 12:45 |
| PriceChild | Where? | 12:46 |
| liassist | #ubuntu | 12:47 |
| PriceChild | liassist: when we need new ops we usually pick from the helpers in the channel | 12:47 |
| PriceChild | liassist: you don't need ops to be useful in a channel, giving support, helping manage it etc. | 12:47 |
| liassist | well, ive been helpin scince 2-years but ive been changing my nick sometimes | 12:48 |
| PriceChild | liassist: Infact I can't remember the last time I used my operator access in #ubuntu, which could be a good or bad things depending on how you look at it. | 12:48 |
| liassist | yes i know but people seem to listen well this way | 12:50 |
| Pici | What do you mean? | 12:50 |
| liassist | well, ive been active on the ubuntu commutnity now iam even a ubunteros and i know someone told me to become a channel op | 12:51 |
| liassist | sir, if you are busy you can tell me ill leave | 12:54 |
| Pici | I'm not telling you to leave, but rather I'll reiterate what PriceChild has already said: when we need new ops we usually pick from the helpers in the channel. | 12:55 |
| liassist | ok so thankx i was really geting anxious | 13:00 |
| Pici | Just be helpful and be yourself in #ubuntu :) | 13:00 |
| liassist | well ok | 13:02 |
| emonkey | strange ... ^^ | 13:04 |
| emonkey | Maybe there are other habits on others IRCs where he is on | 13:05 |
| emonkey | doesn't matter anyway | 13:05 |
| Myrtti | I've most certainly been on IRC way too long | 13:05 |
| Ekushey | hey Myrtti | 13:15 |
| Myrtti | hi Ekushey | 13:16 |
| Ekushey | just wanted to say hello | 13:16 |
| Myrtti | :-) | 13:16 |
| Ekushey | :) | 13:17 |
| * Myrtti considers a new hackergotchi | 14:33 | |
| jpds | flaccid-: Kubuntu and Ubuntu share the same IRC team ;-) | 15:09 |
| flaccid- | jpds, not really | 15:09 |
| flaccid- | its a matter of participation and availability | 15:10 |
| flaccid- | i've come here and #ubuntu-ops for health, rarely much success | 15:10 |
| flaccid- | health=help | 15:10 |
| jpds | well, we can't be around all the time.. | 15:11 |
| flaccid- | i know that | 15:12 |
| flaccid- | i've had responses from ubuntu people saying they can't help | 15:12 |
| jpds | ah ,yes | 15:12 |
| flaccid- | which makes me think, instead of this generic nature, why not #kubuntu-ops ? | 15:13 |
| jussi01 | flaccid-: because all the kubuntu ops are in #ubuntu.ops | 15:13 |
| jussi01 | sorry, #ubuntu-ops | 15:13 |
| Ekushey | [20:14] [Kick] You have been kicked from channel #kubuntu-ops by ChanServ (Invite only channel). | 15:14 |
| Hobbsee | flaccid-: the problem is the lack of kubuntu ops at certain times. not where they might be situated. | 15:14 |
| * emonkey is op on the german speaking kubuntu channels, should I be in some #*ubuntu-ops channel? | 15:15 | |
| jussi01 | emonkey: no | 15:15 |
| Hobbsee | emonkey: no, see /topic :) | 15:15 |
| jussi01 | emonkey: thats what this channel is for | 15:16 |
| emonkey | very good | 15:16 |
| emonkey | then is everything in order :) | 15:16 |
| flaccid- | well maybe i can help with that ? | 15:16 |
| jussi01 | flaccid-: help with what? | 15:17 |
| flaccid- | the lack of operators | 15:17 |
| * Hobbsee was waiting for that. | 15:17 | |
| * flaccid- was waiting for Hobbsee to say that... | 15:17 | |
| flaccid- | :) | 15:17 |
| Hobbsee | so then, you should know my answer without me telling you, right? | 15:17 |
| flaccid- | Hobbsee, i've never asked out of nearly 4 years of helping | 15:18 |
| flaccid- | how many more years does it need to be? | 15:18 |
| Myrtti | I've noted that no-one who asks for it, gets | 15:19 |
| Hobbsee | flaccid-: yeah, but it's more the fact that every once in a while you get banned from #kubuntu yourself, for breaking the rules, which is more of a problem.... | 15:19 |
| flaccid- | thats questionable Hobbsee | 15:20 |
| flaccid- | the truth is that i don't wont ops, but me and some others are the ones that cop it when ops are not around.. | 15:21 |
| flaccid- | and i've proven myself well enough | 15:21 |
| jussi01 | flaccid-: there is an ops trigger for when we arent around/looking | 15:21 |
| flaccid- | i know that. | 15:21 |
| Hobbsee | flaccid-: i agree, that finding more ops is a good idea. | 15:21 |
| flaccid- | Hobbsee, so besides my questionable past, what is stopping me from becoming one of these people? | 15:22 |
| Hobbsee | and it would be a good idea to get a shortlist of those, so it can be voted on | 15:22 |
| jpds | flaccid-: I also that more ops would be nice, however some... say that we have too many.. | 15:22 |
| flaccid- | well besides a handful of 'good' ops, i rarely see the others being active in the channel in question | 15:22 |
| flaccid- | thats some basic feedback.. | 15:23 |
| jussi01 | flaccid-: how often do you actually use !ops and no one is around? | 15:23 |
| flaccid- | i've dont it a few times | 15:23 |
| jussi01 | and no response? | 15:23 |
| flaccid- | i wouldn't say the lack of response if frequent. so you have a good point. | 15:23 |
| flaccid- | but once i again i didn't ask for ops. someone expressed that there is a lack of ops... | 15:24 |
| flaccid- | quite different.. | 15:24 |
| Hobbsee | flaccid-: the evidence that the past is actually past, and would not replicate itself at any point in the future. | 15:24 |
| flaccid- | Hobbsee, sorry? | 15:25 |
| flaccid- | nobody can predict human behaviour ? | 15:25 |
| flaccid- | i don't need ops, but i wouldn't mind some backup without having to trigger !ops ... | 15:26 |
| flaccid- | thats the point. | 15:26 |
| flaccid- | prevention is better than cure :) | 15:26 |
| flaccid- | Hobbsee, how would you feel about a trial period? | 15:31 |
| Hobbsee | flaccid-: i'd have to think about that | 15:31 |
| flaccid- | np | 15:31 |
| flaccid- | let me just express once again, that this is not for me. i just don't want to have to be frustrated and leave because of some users. ops shouldn't have to be triggered imho to moderate... | 15:32 |
| * Hobbsee wonders why ops should not have to be triggered. | 15:38 | |
| Hobbsee | after all, not everyone spends all the time on irc, especially in a single channel | 15:38 |
| flaccid- | because the response sometimes can be a while | 15:39 |
| flaccid- | i ack your point and put it to rest | 15:40 |
| flaccid- | may i ask, is there any encouragement for one like myself who is a dominant helper ? | 15:41 |
| Hobbsee | encouragement? | 15:41 |
| flaccid- | yes | 15:41 |
| flaccid- | humans live for a feeling of importance | 15:41 |
| jussi01 | !helpersnack | 15:42 |
| ubottu | Wow! You're such a great helper, you deserve a cookie! | 15:42 |
| jussi01 | :) | 15:42 |
| flaccid- | something like that is better than nothing... | 15:42 |
| flaccid- | i never even knew about that thanks jussi01 :) | 15:42 |
| Hobbsee | flaccid-: write a script to remind yourself of how helpful you are, ifyou like. | 15:43 |
| Hobbsee | everyone deserves it, so... | 15:43 |
| flaccid- | everyone ? | 15:44 |
| flaccid- | why would you say that? | 15:44 |
| Hobbsee | all the helpers, all the ops, all the people who offer support, all the people who put ubuntu together, all the people who otherwise contribute to ubuntu... | 15:45 |
| flaccid- | thats a massive generalisation considering im the one being judged | 15:45 |
| flaccid- | all these people and me are certainly not equal | 15:45 |
| Myrtti | "being an administrator shouldn't be a big deal" | 15:47 |
| Myrtti | - and it isn't. | 15:47 |
| flaccid- | exactly and thats pretty far from my point | 15:47 |
| jpds | flaccid-: but we're all what make Ubuntu special. | 15:47 |
| Myrtti | exactly | 15:48 |
| flaccid- | another generalisation | 15:48 |
| flaccid- | define special ? | 15:48 |
| Myrtti | speshul | 15:48 |
| flaccid- | hehe | 15:48 |
| * Myrtti snugglewuggles everyone | 15:48 | |
| flaccid- | the good ol sugar down strategy, i can appreciate that | 15:48 |
| flaccid- | wont' work on me but :) | 15:48 |
| Myrtti | it's just me | 15:49 |
| Myrtti | pay no attention :-P | 15:49 |
| flaccid- | and thats your right for sure | 15:49 |
| * Myrtti gives jpds a lollipop | 15:49 | |
| * jpds gives Myrtti and flaccid- a hug | 15:49 | |
| flaccid- | thanks i appreciate it | 15:50 |
| flaccid- | its rare i get that around here :) | 15:50 |
| jpds | flaccid-: oh... we always have hugs in #ubuntu-motu for example | 15:50 |
| flaccid- | ah probably didn't go there because its not 'k' | 15:50 |
| flaccid- | if i knew thats where the hugs were at... | 15:51 |
| jpds | flaccid-: you wouldn't have seen http://www.jonobacon.org/?p=1188 by any chance? | 15:51 |
| * Myrtti thinks kubuntu is just another flavor of "general" ubuntu | 15:51 | |
| Myrtti | HUGS ARE GREAT ♥ | 15:53 |
| * jussi01 hugs Myrtti | 15:53 | |
| flaccid- | jpds, unfortunately thats far from what i get. | 15:53 |
| jussi01 | Myrtti: OH noes!!! I didnt hug you when I was there!!! | 15:53 |
| Myrtti | :-O | 15:54 |
| Myrtti | TRUE! | 15:54 |
| jpds | flaccid-: awww.. :( | 15:54 |
| flaccid- | we are the soldiers in the front line | 15:54 |
| * Myrtti feels oddly... deprived | 15:55 | |
| flaccid- | i can understand that we mean nothing to the superiors... | 15:55 |
| Myrtti | harumph | 15:55 |
| Myrtti | flaccid-: come here and I'll hug? | 15:56 |
| Myrtti | =^___^= | 15:57 |
| flaccid- | hehe | 15:57 |
| flaccid- | im FOSS i can't afford a plane ticket | 15:57 |
| flaccid- | i just think the ubuntu 'team' needs to find a way to pay recognition to the people that have shown dedicated help | 15:57 |
| flaccid- | having to ask is a bit ridiculous | 15:58 |
| jpds | flaccid-: heh, I only exactly how that feels, I couldn't get the money to buy a passport to go to the last dev summit | 15:58 |
| flaccid- | should i have joined the ubuntu brainstorm and got a green tick for free? | 15:58 |
| Ekushey | Myrtti, ping | 17:16 |
| Myrtti | pong | 17:16 |
| Ekushey | Myrtti, @ubuntu.com alias is setup automatically, or do i need to do anything? | 17:17 |
| Myrtti | mine is working a-ok | 17:17 |
| Ekushey | i was added to the LP ~ubuntumembers team today and my alias isn't working yet | 17:18 |
| Myrtti | and I did nothing to make them work | 17:18 |
| Myrtti | they fixed the script that does the aliases few days ago | 17:18 |
| Myrtti | hm, it might take a couple of days, I'm told | 17:19 |
| Ekushey | ok, i'll wait for 2 days and see what happens | 17:19 |
| Ekushey | thanks, Myrtti | 17:20 |
| Myrtti | np | 17:20 |
