[00:58] <smallfoot-> can someone unban me from #ubuntu-offtopic?
[00:58] <smallfoot-> i have been banned a very long time
[00:59] <Pici> smallfoot-: Do you remember why you were banned?
[01:00] <smallfoot-> no
[01:02] <Pici> smallfoot-: Could you please read this and let me know when you are finished  http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines
[01:03] <smallfoot-> aff, must not be an asshole, blah, blah, soon you will have to agree to an EULA to use IRC, like you have to agree on EULA to use Windows
[01:04] <nickrud> smallfoot- we have kids hanging around, the channels are disney g rated.
[01:04] <bazhang> I already lifted the ban
[01:04] <smallfoot-> oh
[01:04] <smallfoot-> oh
[01:04] <bazhang> at least on the ip address
[01:04] <smallfoot-> Cannot join #ubuntu-offtopic (You are banned).
[01:04] <smallfoot-> i still cant join
[01:04] <bazhang> oh ubuntu-offtopic
[01:04] <smallfoot-> what, how can you know my ip address? i have cloak, so it must be hidden
[01:04] <Pici> You were banned for being hostile as well as for using harsh language
[01:04] <bazhang> that is Hobbsee
[01:05] <smallfoot-> im never hostile, i never threat anyone, but yes i did use harsh language
[01:05] <Pici> I'm looking at it, since she isn't around.
[01:05] <smallfoot-> also, isnt there any ubuntu channel without kids in it?
[01:05] <bazhang> smallfoot-, you can get into #ubuntu now?
[01:06] <nickrud> ah, work day is over. time to go. See you all later
[01:06] <smallfoot-> bazhang, i am in #ubuntu now, but cant get in #ubuntu-offtopic
[01:06] <bazhang> cya nickrud
[01:06] <Pici> smallfoot-: There are no Ubuntu channels that allow such language
[01:06] <bazhang> smallfoot-, that is a different op
[01:06] <smallfoot-> and i must goto the offtopic channel, because im not allowed to talk about some stuff in #ubuntu
[01:06] <bazhang> smallfoot-, or you could say it inside your head and not type foul language on irc
[01:07] <bazhang> ie act like an adult.
[01:07] <smallfoot-> well, i been banned in #ubuntu-offtopic for a long time, and if i talk about offtopic stuff in #ubuntu, then i get banned, so i must get unbanned to follow the rules
[01:07] <Pici> And you must follow the rules to get unbanned
[01:07] <bazhang> smallfoot-, that is not true; just stay ontopic and type your foul language on an open office document
[01:08] <smallfoot-> :(
[01:08] <smallfoot-> but i wanna talk about other stuff too, on-topic all the time is boring :(
[01:08] <bazhang> smallfoot-, then go to a different channel as #ubuntu will never allow that.
[01:08] <smallfoot-> yeah, thats why i need goto #ubuntu-offtopic
[01:09] <bazhang> smallfoot-, that is a false equivalence; you can stay on topic on #ubuntu, or not join #ubuntu.
[01:10] <smallfoot-> yeah, but i want to talk about some stuff that is not asking for help, so i need go into #ubuntu-offtopic
[01:10] <bazhang> smallfoot-, best to part now.
[01:10] <smallfoot-> because i want to talk about ubuntu, but (now i know) that i can only ask about support in #ubuntu
[01:10] <smallfoot-> Pici, please unban me from #ubuntu-offtopic
[01:10] <bazhang> smallfoot-, the operator in charge of your ban is not here, and idling is not allowed in this channel.
[01:10] <smallfoot-> oh, but im not idling (yet)
[01:11] <smallfoot-> hmm.. only Hobbsee can unban me? hes never here
[01:11] <bazhang> smallfoot-, your business here is concluded for now; there is no waiting around.
[01:11] <Pici> I'll speak to hobbsee about this so that we know how to continue
[01:12] <smallfoot-> but i wanted wait for Pici if he can unban me, or if anyone can tell me if its only Hobbsee who is allowed to unban?
[01:12] <smallfoot-> oh okie
[01:12] <bazhang> bye smallfoot-
[01:12] <Pici> Hobbsee: ping re: above ^
[01:12] <smallfoot-> last question, can you make a channel for ubuntu adults where you can cuss? and is there any place for whining?
[01:12] <bazhang> smallfoot-, no.
[01:12] <Pici> I don't forsee that happening any time soon
[01:12] <Flannel> smallfoot-: profanity isn't an indication of maturity
[01:12] <nalioth> smallfoot-: no official Ubuntu channel will offer that much leash
[01:13] <smallfoot-> Flannel, yeah but it helps when im angry
[01:13] <smallfoot-> ok
[01:13] <bazhang> smallfoot-, make your own channel #whine
[01:13] <smallfoot-> bye, so idont get ban from here
[01:13]  * Pici sighs
[01:13]  * bazhang goes to join channel #whine
[01:13] <Pici> I'm sure hes going to do something to get banned again if he does get unbanned.
[01:14] <bazhang> oh for sure.
[01:15] <bazhang> the logic of users sometimes astounds me.
[01:15] <bazhang> or lack of.
[01:17] <bazhang> xjjk (i=texas@anubis.hotnudiegirls.com) has joined #ubuntu family-friendly?
[01:18] <nalioth> bazhang: is he trolling?
[01:18] <bazhang> nalioth, was referring to the hot etc. etc
[01:19] <nalioth> i suspect taht if you dont call attention to it, nobody will pay any to it
[01:19] <Flannel> oh.  He's not a troll, asking for proper help.
[01:21] <bazhang> smallfoot-> They should make an "Ubuntu Whinestorm" website (like Brainstorm) where people whine and the most annoying things get voted up, and the whines with most votes get attention by developers and fixed
[01:21] <bazhang> thought that was what brainstorm was :)
[01:22] <Flannel> for the most part, yep.
[02:01] <ubottu> FloodBot2 called the ops in #ubuntu-ops-monitor (exploit)
[02:01] <ubottu> FloodBot1 called the ops in #ubuntu-ops-monitor (exploit)
[02:01] <ubottu> FloodBot3 called the ops in #ubuntu-ops-monitor (exploit)
[02:46] <Hobbsee> Pici: you can deal with it, if you like
[02:47] <Pici> Hobbsee: I thought so, I wanted to clear it with you first though.
[02:47] <Hobbsee> :)
[02:49] <Hobbsee> besides, i'm almost always here
[02:49] <Hobbsee> at least, 'here' on irc.
[02:49] <Hobbsee> just not necessarily here on the computer
[03:34] <bazhang> smallfoot
[03:36] <Hobbsee> darn, missed the meeting
[03:36] <bazhang> same here :(
[03:42] <Flannel> bazhang: The term you were looking for is false dichotomy
[03:43] <bazhang> Flannel, thanks
[04:18] <Flannel> CaptainMorgan: How can we help you?
[04:19] <CaptainMorgan> I need an op or admin to converse with over a subject I'd rather keep quiet please let me know who can I pm
[04:19] <CaptainMorgan> Flannel, may we talk via pm ?
[04:19] <Flannel> CaptainMorgan: Sure
[04:24] <CaptainMorgan> thank you for your time
[04:25] <Flannel> Join spam possibly from cEmx in #ubuntu
[04:25] <Flannel> (was what he was talking about)  anyone have a dispensble method of testing?  If not, I'll fire up another irssi
[04:42] <Flannel> Well, I can't get it to work.  Maybe Im doing it wrong
[04:44] <Flannel> also couldn't get mibbit to work.  is one of the flootbots broken?
[07:28] <PriceChild> Flannel: if its onjoin spam, often a quick /cycle in that channel will trigger a PM.
[07:29] <Flannel> PriceChild: Oh, thanks.  Never knew about /cycle
[07:32] <PriceChild> Of course just because it doesn't trigger their script and send a PM, don't assume that's proof they're not spamming.
[07:33] <Flannel> Right.  I just fired up another irssi instance (after trying mibbit unsucessfully).  Haven't gotten any other complaints though
[08:09] <wols> !ops XOKADO is spamming in #ubuntu
[08:09] <ubottu> In #ubuntu-ops, wols said: !ops XOKADO is spamming in #ubuntu
[08:12] <Flannel> taken care of
[09:14] <bazhang> moo_cow, how may we assist you
[09:15] <Flannel> bazhang: ban forward from #ubuntu, not sure moo_cow is actually here.
[09:15] <bazhang> this is a bot then?
[09:15] <Flannel> No, just has a join for #ubuntu, which forwards here
[09:16] <bazhang> odd; there is also a moocow currently in #ubuntu
[09:16] <Flannel> right, different person
[10:11] <dmseg> hello, there is too much join part messages in #ubuntu
[10:13] <dmseg> thankyou all for your help
[10:16] <bazhang> o.0
[10:28] <elkbuntu> bazhang, he's not worth it
[10:29] <bazhang> elkbuntu, certainly not; just an odd message.

[13:58] <jussi01> hehe
[13:59] <jussi01> we all know about the marking facility offered by ubottu?
[13:59] <stdin> I did mention it a while ago now, but I don't think anyone has used it
[14:00] <jussi01> stdin: we need  to publicise it some more id think
[14:00] <stdin> I guess I/you could send an email to the list
[14:00] <jussi01> stdin: I had an idea for another plugin also
[14:02] <stdin> don't leave me in suspense ;)
[14:03] <jpds> stdin: Could you push ubottu's lastest source to LP?
[14:03] <stdin> it should already be there
[14:03] <jussi01> stdin: it would be nice to have 2 things - a @bansearch <mask> and @banlog <nick> <channel> (which returns the last 4 lines said by the banned nick in said channel)
[14:03] <stdin> but I've neglected it recently
[14:04] <jpds> stdin: It's 7 weeks old...
[14:06] <stdin> jpds: I haven't done much with it in the last 7 weeks, but I'll make sure it's up to date today
[14:06] <jpds> stdin: Cheers.
[14:06] <jussi01> stdin: so what do you think - doable? useful even?
[14:07] <stdin> jussi01: I guess it's possible to integrate them into the bantracker plugin, with some work
[14:08] <jussi01> stdin: reason Im thinking of that, is that people hate logging into bantracker - if we can do it here, its some much easier/likely to be done

[16:32] <jpds> ...but not him again.
[16:32] <jussi01> fun stuff...
[16:34] <Jack_Sparrow> We got rid of him last time when I called his IP and found he worked there
[16:35] <jussi01> Jack_Sparrow: really???
[16:35] <Jack_Sparrow> Yep
[16:35] <Jack_Sparrow> He was using unassigned ip's from his own office
[16:36] <jussi01> well that was kinda stupid...
[16:37] <jpds> why the hell did he get a job there in the first place?!
[16:39] <Jack_Sparrow> I had a talk with him in PM..  Hopefully I got through to him at some level
[16:41] <nalioth> Jack_Sparrow: an email to abuse@ or a call to talk to the boss should be done for this person
[16:42] <Jack_Sparrow> I did talk to the boss last time
[16:42] <nalioth> right now it's not a problem for their business, but what will happen when this idiot irritates a brazilian botnet, and it gets turned on to the business?
[16:42] <Jack_Sparrow> I think he was dismissed
[16:42] <nalioth> boss doesn't care?
[16:42] <nalioth> ah
[16:43] <Jack_Sparrow> He didnt use his old ip this time..
[16:43] <Jack_Sparrow> I let the abuser know he was doing a dis-service to people of true faith.

[21:54] <tritium> MooCow was in there yesterday as Michael_, and repeatedly offtopic, and completely ignored all !paste notices.
[21:54] <tritium> OK, you remember him as well.
[21:55] <Flannel> Yeah
[21:55] <Flannel> Michael, and then moved to MooCow, with this same infobot/startup thing
[21:55] <tritium> Yep.
[21:58] <Flannel> tritium: I believe with this pastebin, we're going to find out that theres a capitalization issue
[21:58] <tritium> Perhaps.
[21:58] <Flannel> since I think he's retyping everything instead of c/o
[21:58] <tritium> I'm sort of not paying attention.
[21:59] <Flannel> I stopped last night, since I was going to break out the banhammer for idiocracy
