[02:02] <serkan`c> hello
[02:03] <nalioth> serkan`c: here is where you can ask your questions pertaining to Ubuntu and Kubuntu and the other official channels
[02:03] <serkan`c> i am not asking an ubuntu channel problem :D
[02:03] <serkan`c> but thank you so much
[02:03] <nalioth> what are you asking?
[02:04] <TiredWolf> how to get a channel out of his /whois list
[02:04] <nalioth>   /msg chanserv help           /msg chanserv help set                      will show you your options
[02:04] <serkan`c> yep
[02:04] <serkan`c> i looked there of course
[02:04] <TiredWolf> actually, it's more like /mode +s
[02:04] <serkan`c> but first i thought private does that, misunderstood
[02:04] <nalioth> there are two different settings
[02:04] <nalioth> a channel mode and a channel flag
[02:05] <nalioth> they both do similar things
[02:05] <serkan`c> ok +s isnt the flag? am i right?
[02:05] <serkan`c> it is mode
[02:05] <TiredWolf> +s is a mode
[02:05] <serkan`c> ok what is the equiavalent flag?
[02:05] <TiredWolf> locking +s into chanserv makes it a flag, i guess
[02:06] <nalioth> it does not
[02:06] <TiredWolf> well yes, mlock is a flag
[02:06] <nalioth> +s will keep your channel off the /whois of others
[02:06] <serkan`c> so the only way is setting the +s flag?
[02:07] <nalioth> for your purpose, yes
[02:07] <TiredWolf> or setting yourself +i
[02:07] <TiredWolf> but then everyone else in the channel has to do that too, if you want nobody to show up
[02:07] <nalioth> that won't hide the channel (if he's the owner)
[02:07] <serkan`c> i was actually +i
[02:07] <serkan`c> ohh
[02:07] <serkan`c> this is the problem i guess
[02:08] <TiredWolf> i really doubt you are +i
[02:08] <TiredWolf> since i see #freenode #tuxhacker #ubuntu-irc #ubuntu-locoteams #turklug
[02:08] <serkan`c> * [serkan`c] is signed on as account heartsmagic
[02:08] <TiredWolf> and i'm only in #ubuntu-irc and #freenode
[02:08] <serkan`c> it is normal TiredWolf
[02:08] <serkan`c> not all the channels +s i am in
[02:08] <TiredWolf> +i doesn't mean "identified"
[02:08] <TiredWolf> it means "invisible"
[02:08] <serkan`c> oh!
[02:09] <serkan`c> but i dont want to be invisible for all the channels
[02:09] <nalioth> serkan`c: +e is identified
[02:09] <TiredWolf> then +s is the way
[02:09] <serkan`c> poor me :D
[02:09] <serkan`c> yeash +s is so good for my purpose
[02:09] <TiredWolf> just, if you want it to stay, /msg chanserv set #channel mlock on
[02:09] <TiredWolf> eh, what did i say
[02:09] <TiredWolf> just, if you want it to stay, /msg chanserv set #channel mlock +s
[02:10] <serkan`c> yes i did it like that
[02:10] <TiredWolf> still, i have my doubts on the usefulness of making an ops' channel secret
[02:10] <TiredWolf> but, whatever suits you i guess
[02:10] <serkan`c> it is the mod channel
[02:11] <serkan`c> not for a regular user, we have an official channel for that
[02:11] <TiredWolf> and the people here have #ubuntu, yet #ubuntu-irc isn't secret
[02:12] <serkan`c> but is not just mod channel :D
[02:12] <serkan`c> actually i see your point
[02:12] <TiredWolf> well actually yes it is
[02:12] <TiredWolf> it says "International Ubuntu IRC operators channel"
[02:12] <serkan`c> oh according the desc. on topic, yes it is
[02:13] <serkan`c> but isnt it preferrable?
[02:14] <TiredWolf> look, if you want to keep it private, keep it private. but if regular users have an issue to discuss with you mods, or operators as you prefer... then it's generally better to discuss it in a dedicated channel, than to clutter the main support channel
[02:15] <serkan`c> actually i didnt create this channel for this purpose, we talk those in the regular channel but this is not a serious problem, i can make it -s
[02:15] <TiredWolf> you can make it as you prefer, as far as i know, i was merely suggesting
[02:16] <serkan`c> so this is an oppinion and i can see your point
[02:19] <serkan`c> btw thanks for helping both TiredWolf and nalioth
[18:29] <myrtlebeachbums> Hey guys - anyone got a minute for some questions on an Ubuntu cloak?
[18:30] <Myrtti> sure
[18:30] <Myrtti> shoot
[18:31] <myrtlebeachbums> Okay. So I've registered my nick, I'm an Ubuntero, and I'm a member of two teams. Is that what I need for a cloak, and if not what else do I need? (I RTFM'd, and I think I'm good but I thought I'd ask to make sure.)
[18:31] <myrtlebeachbums> https://launchpad.net/~myrtlebeachbums
[18:32] <Myrtti> you need to be not only Ubuntero, but an Ubuntu member
[18:32] <RoAkSoAx> myrtlebeachbums, what you need to obtain a cloak is become an Official Ubuntu Member: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Membership
[18:33] <myrtlebeachbums> Gotcha. A little more work to do. :) Thanks guys. I'll work on that and bug you some time in the future. I appreciate the help.
[18:33] <jpds> myrtlebeachbums: Good luck!
[18:33] <myrtlebeachbums> Thanks! TTYL
