[01:36] <Pici> ugh
[03:09] <vorian> +1
[03:25] <mneptok> i like how when the candy goes in my mouth it tastes good.
[03:25] <mneptok> that's WICKED AWESOME
[05:33] <Flannel> Blah.  Why does it seem like theres always someone giving bad advice.
[05:34] <elky_work> Flannel: there's always going to be one in a channel that big
[05:34] <elky_work> mneptok: where's my candy
[05:35] <Flannel> elky_work: yeah, but some of them are the *same* people over and over again
[05:35] <elky_work> Flannel: you need a larger cluebat, and eventually you'll need to use one without the foam padding
[05:36]  * tritium wants his own cluebat
[05:36] <elky_work> Flannel: and despite what they think the code of conduct means -- we're not obliged to keep them, and infact must take responsibility to protect our users.
[05:38] <Flannel> elky_work: I'm aware, it usually has to do with people just doing stupid things, not necessarily "bad" things.  Just not being as helpful as they could be.,
[05:38] <Flannel> I just feel bad sometimes because I always seem to come in the tail end of these conversations, where someone is finishing up something dead wrong, or in a round about way.
[05:39] <Flannel> Obviously, I just need to stop leaving.
[05:39] <elky_work> heh
[05:56] <Myrtti> I want chicken I want liver Meaow-Mix Meaow-Mix please deliver...
[05:56] <Myrtti> no, akshully I want candy
[05:56] <Myrtti> where's my candy?
[05:59] <nalioth> can anyone get http://nalioth.homelinux.org up on their box?
[06:00] <robotgeek> nalioth: works for me
[06:00] <Myrtti> Nalioth's Corner of the World
[06:01] <nalioth> whoa.
[06:01] <nalioth> ok, i guess i'm overthinking it
[06:02] <nalioth> funny how my networked box can't resolve it
[06:02] <elky_work> nalioth: your router probably doesnt do loopback
[06:03] <Myrtti> yup
[06:03] <Myrtti> same here
[06:03] <elky_work> you'd be getting like an obnoxious pink page with somethign to the point of 'doesnt exist'
[06:04] <nalioth> nah, it just sits and spins ( OS X )
[06:05] <nalioth> if it works for y'all, i'll just call it by network IP from the iMac
[06:57] <Myrtti> a kid from IRCnet's #ubuntu.fi came in to one of the irc channels I am op in yesterday
[06:57] <Myrtti> and wanted to release the angst of having a WOMAN as an op
[06:57] <Myrtti> luckily I was sleeping
[07:04] <elky_work> sounds like someone has issues with his mother
[07:25] <bazhang> jeffz
[08:26] <bazhang>  whtguy4asnlady (n=charlie@S0106001a70fabc5c.vc.shawcable.net) has joined #ubuntu family friendly?
[08:28] <Myrtti> I'm not following your logic now
[08:29] <bazhang> white guy 4 etc etc
[08:36] <Flannel> bazhang: It was a verify, not a identify
[08:49] <Myrtti> wheee
[08:49] <Myrtti> I just used my emp cannon in IRCnet's #ubuntu.fi
[08:50] <bazhang> ircnet? is that rougher than here Myrtti ?
[08:50] <Myrtti> I've sorta given up on ircnet almost altogether
[08:51] <Myrtti> some of the ircnets linux related channels drove me away from linux for years before Ubuntu came along
[08:52] <bazhang> wow thats sad
[08:52] <bazhang> all it took was feisty for me
[08:52] <Myrtti> that's one of the reasons I've got RTFM and JFGI on my hilights
[08:53] <bazhang> not away from linux, mind you, just away from ubuntu
[08:54] <Myrtti> there was no Ubuntu back then...
[08:58] <bazhang> right :)
[08:58] <bazhang> was speaking for myself
[08:58] <Myrtti> yup
[08:58] <Myrtti> but yeah
[08:58] <Myrtti> IRCnet is quite horrible
[08:59] <bazhang> left feisty for the warm embrace of pclinuxos
[08:59] <Myrtti> though - QuakeNet is even more notorious for being the place for scriptkiddies and idiots
[08:59] <bazhang> wow.
[08:59] <bazhang> glad I only know freenode
[09:00] <Myrtti> I'm in six networks atm.
[09:01]  * Myrtti sighs
[09:01] <bazhang> whoa
[09:04] <Myrtti> and here we have ASUS-tek again
[09:04] <Myrtti> bazhang: mind making that a banforward here?
[09:05] <bazhang> Myrtti, wont he be told to come here when he hits that ban?
[09:05] <Myrtti> not necessarily
[09:05] <Myrtti> no
[09:05] <bazhang> bit embarrassing
[09:06] <bazhang> not sure how to do that
[09:06] <Myrtti> I can do that
[09:06] <Myrtti> watch ;-)
[09:06] <bazhang> thanks Myrtti
[09:06] <bazhang> :)
[09:07] <Myrtti> hello Ape3000
[09:07] <bazhang> aha; just add ! #channel
[09:07] <Myrtti> Ape3000: having a fun morning?
[09:07] <Ape3000> You understand the joke?
[09:07] <bazhang> not a joke
[09:07] <Myrtti> no
[09:07] <Ape3000> 'rm -rf /' does nothing
[09:08] <Myrtti> since it's not a joke
[09:08] <Myrtti> oh, reheeeeallly
[09:08] <Ape3000> it doesn't do anything even with root
[09:08] <Ape3000> So there is no harm
[09:08] <Ape3000> Just like I'd say run: cowsay -f tux This is a joke
[09:08] <Myrtti> and when was the last time you tried that with root on your own computer? (no, don't try now)
[09:09] <bazhang> #ubuntu is not the channel for that (nor is any other)
[09:09] <Myrtti> !wfm
[09:09] <Ape3000> Trust me, it doesn't do anything on Ubuntu, even if you are a root
[09:10] <Myrtti> just because rm -rf / doesn't work for you, doesn't mean that it will not work for others
[09:10] <Ape3000> It might work on other distros, but not on any official ubuntu
[09:10] <Myrtti> so no, we cannot trust your word on this
[09:11] <ikonia> Ape3000: there is a failsafe built into coreutils to prevent that
[09:11] <Myrtti> and it really was not a funny joke
[09:11] <ikonia> Ape3000: but there are senarios where it won't work
[09:11] <ikonia> Ape3000: plus as a "method" - its not a sane method to suggest to people
[09:12] <Ape3000> "rm -rf (variously, rm -rf /, rm -rf *, and others) is frequently used in jokes"
[09:12] <Ape3000> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rm_(Unix)
[09:12] <Myrtti> Ape3000: ha                                          ha
[09:12] <Myrtti> -_________-
[09:13] <ikonia> Ape3000: it's not funny to give out potentially dangerous advice to people, just please don't
[09:13] <Ape3000> "Upon executing the command, the system now reports that the removal of / is not allowed."
[09:13] <Ape3000> I learned my lesson, don't tell jokes on #ubuntu
[09:13] <Myrtti> Ape3000: good one
[09:13] <Myrtti> since #ubuntu is support only channel
[09:13] <ikonia> Ape3000: yes, and thats the failsafe, but that doesn't always work,
[09:14] <Ape3000> I could have told a nasty repartioning command that would really do something
[09:15] <Ape3000> But it wasn't meant to be anything evil
[09:15] <bazhang> Ape3000, why are you in #ubuntu
[09:15] <Ape3000> I had a question about ubuntu networks and I just forgot the leave it
[09:16] <Ape3000> Is it disallowed to idle in there?
[09:16] <Myrtti> no
[09:16] <bazhang> well you have left now
[09:16] <Ape3000> I was kicked..
[09:16] <Myrtti> yup
[09:16] <Myrtti> as everyone suggesting that command there ar
[09:16] <Myrtti> e
[09:16] <Ape3000> But I hope I can rejoin, if I really come up with a problem
[09:17] <Myrtti> that remains to be seen, the decision of unbanning you is pending on this conversation
[09:17] <Myrtti> I'm not happy with this conversation as of now
[09:19] <Ape3000> Just do the thing you are told to do in this situation
[09:19] <Myrtti> well...
[09:19] <Myrtti> the thing is what we usually do...
[09:20] <Myrtti> !coc
[09:20] <Myrtti> !guidelines
[09:20] <Myrtti> I hope you are acquainted with those documents?
[09:21] <Ape3000> At least after minutes from now
[09:24] <Ape3000> Yeah, I agree with those
[09:25] <Myrtti> now that we've told you that "rm -rf /"ing people in #ubuntu is really not a good idea, and will result into you being banforwarded here to have a time out...
[09:25] <Myrtti> do you agree to use your common sense not to do that and similar kind of "jokes" there again?
[09:25] <Ape3000> Yes
[09:25] <Myrtti> bazhang: since this is originally your remove-ban...
[09:26] <Myrtti> bazhang: it's your call
[09:26] <bazhang> Myrtti, I concur with you completely
[09:27] <Myrtti> Ape3000: if I see you doing that, or see a report of you doing it from other ops, "Auntie Myrtti will be very angry and spank you senseless over Ethernet"
[09:27] <Myrtti> having said that...
[09:27] <Myrtti> your ban has been removed by bazhang
[09:27] <bazhang> Ape3000, play nicer in the future
[09:27] <Ape3000> I will
[09:31] <Myrtti> since your issue has now been cleared, you can part this channel
[09:38] <jussi01> !idle | Ape3000
[09:47] <bazhang> Ape3000, please part now
[09:48] <Myrtti> idle 20mins
[09:53] <Ape3000> Oh sorry
[09:55] <bazhang> thanks Myrtti
[09:55] <Myrtti> no probs
[10:04] <bazhang> zomg
[10:04] <bazhang> mr farmer has taken over ku-ot
[10:12] <jussi01> bazhang: how so?
[10:13] <bazhang> jussi01, you seem to be in there
[10:13] <jussi01> bazhang: be more explicit, who is "mr farmer" (nick)
[10:14] <jussi01> bazhang: and what has he done in #k-ot specicifically
[10:14] <bazhang> jussi01, that is ORDOS (aka almightycthulhu/ryan1984/etc) of foxconn fame
[10:15] <bazhang> also mjg livejpurnal
[10:15] <elkbuntu> bazhang, taken over? how?
[10:15] <jussi01> bazhang: ok. Ive been watching him for the last few days, and I know the story, however, he has done nothing that Ive seen to be a problem, so meh
[10:16] <jussi01> if he behaves himself, its all good
[10:16] <bazhang> that channel may have a different standard than u-ot; never mind me
[10:23] <Myrtti> namespace wide bans are in general A Really Bad Idea
[10:23] <elkbuntu> well, since he had another go at spamming matthew last weekend, i'm rather suspecting he'll try again this weekend
[10:24] <elkbuntu> Myrtti, it's a matter of protecting users when it comes to serial recidivist spammers
[11:02] <elkbuntu> although, it's only a matter of time before someone mentions mjg or foxconn and he cracks
[12:10] <elkbuntu> uh, anyone else awake and feel like backing me up in -offtopic please?
[12:13] <Myrtti> I wouldn't call zaxces my friend...
[12:13] <elkbuntu> hell no
[12:14] <elkbuntu> i understand he's just being normal for a young indian guy on the wow of the internet, but he's moreso than other indian kids
[12:14] <Myrtti> uh-oh
[12:15] <Myrtti> now I feel like smacking him
[12:16] <elkbuntu> no need 'sweetz'
[12:16] <elkbuntu> oh. crap
[12:16] <Myrtti> now he's in your pm
[12:16] <Myrtti> *sigh*
[12:16] <elkbuntu> yep
[12:16] <ikonia> of what a surprise what other channels he's in
 don't do that
[12:16] <Myrtti> "or what"
[12:16] <elkbuntu> ikonia, *that* other channel?
[12:16] <Myrtti> *that*
[12:16] <ikonia> what a surprise
[12:17] <ikonia> I don't get it, that channel is there for people who find the ubuntu COC to restrictive, so if thats the case why not use it ?
[12:17] <elkbuntu> Myrtti, i'm just going to leave him stew
[12:17] <Myrtti> I wonder "don't do that or..." he'll do
[12:17] <elkbuntu> he's now wondering why i didnt clamour to respond
[12:17] <elkbuntu> i dont think he's figured i only removed
 say some thing
 not fair I was nice what is with ya was I very rude say some thing
[12:19] <ikonia> just ignore it, he's not banned so he could go back in if he tried
[12:19] <elkbuntu> i know
[12:20] <elkbuntu> pwnt
[12:21] <ikonia> whois hynx
[12:21] <ikonia> hynix
[12:21] <ikonia> ahh same guy
[12:21] <elkbuntu> yes
[12:21] <elkbuntu> didnt bother changing hostname
[12:21] <elkbuntu> idiot
[12:21] <Myrtti> I can see it from the ip and the ident and all without checking
[12:23] <jpds> a/wii hynix
[12:23] <elkbuntu> heh
[12:23] <elkbuntu> he's gotta be like 13 at the most i think
[12:23] <Myrtti> yea
[12:23] <Myrtti> though he claimed once to be working for ASUS or AMD in India
[12:23] <Myrtti> IIRC
[12:24] <elkbuntu> doubt it
[12:24] <Myrtti> and this is the exact reason he is on my ignore... and why I want to smack him in the face for changing his ident, ip and nick all the time
[12:24] <Myrtti> he slips through the ignore
[12:24]  * elkbuntu huggles Myrtti again
[12:26] <ikonia> trying to get the channel on a reasonable offtopic
[12:31] <elkbuntu> ikonia, can you reinforce my thing about a single identity please? i dont think he takes Myrtti or i seriously since we lack testicles
[12:40] <ikonia> sorry was away for 30 seconds
[12:40] <ikonia> back now
[12:41] <jpds> bazhang: ...
[12:41] <bazhang> jpds, hi
[12:41] <ikonia> just had to let my builder out
[12:41] <jpds> Totally random.
[12:41] <ikonia> wie gehts bazhang :)
[12:42] <bazhang> hehe
[12:53] <Pici> sheesh... /me just read -ot backlog
[12:53] <ikonia> hello Pici
[12:54] <Pici> morning(or whatever) ikonia
[12:54] <ikonia> only just turned afternoon (55 minutes ago)
[12:55] <bazhang> wow
[12:55] <bazhang> missed that in ot (zaxses)
[12:56] <Pici> Who is the other multi-personality person? I need to setup some sort of note system here...
[12:56] <bazhang> easily
[12:57] <bazhang> aka z/sporty/patchpockets/icesword
[12:57] <bazhang> err z_
[12:57] <Myrtti> yeah
[12:57] <Myrtti> be careful with that
[12:58] <Pici> Myrtti: do you happen to know of any irssi plugin that can help with this, or am I sort of stuck with setting up some sort of hilight?
[12:59] <Pici> or maybe a trigger...
[12:59] <Pici> Or a sticky note on my desk.
[12:59] <bazhang> haha
[12:59] <bazhang> more like a legal pad full-sized
[13:05] <Myrtti> Pici: http://scripts.irssi.org/html/tracknick.pl.html
[13:05] <Myrtti> looks promising, but might need more perl love
[13:29] <Myrtti> mmmm
[13:29] <Myrtti> "Tab complete servers and userhosts (irc. -> irc server, user@ -> user@host). Useful for lazy ircops for /squit and so on :)"
[13:41] <Myrtti> uh oh
[13:41] <Myrtti> look at -ot
[13:44]  * Myrtti curses
[14:23] <Myrtti> 16:22 < z_> i think Lynoure hates me...
[14:25] <Myrtti> 16:24 < z_> no, she wants to "teach" me to not ask some questions...
[14:36] <Pricey> Is z_ a problem again?
[14:36] <Myrtti> I've got no idea what he's up to
[14:42] <Pricey> How long ago?
[14:53] <Myrtti> he's not been that bad today as far as I know
[15:08] <Myrtti> he wasn't done yet
[15:09] <Myrtti> some how n=jkkjkjkj@77.104.253.86 rings a bell
[15:22] <Myrtti> and so he is
[15:37] <Myrtti> HE WANTS TO VISIT FINLAND! \o/
[15:38] <Pici> He can stay with you
[15:38]  * Pici runs
[15:38] <Myrtti> I can haz pickaxe?
[15:38] <Myrtti> he scares me
[15:51] <idimmu> hai can i be unbanned from #ubuntu please
[15:52] <Pici> idimmu: do you remember why you were banned?
[15:52] <idimmu> nope
[15:52] <idimmu> it was well over a month ago
[15:53] <Myrtti> banlog is nice
[15:53] <idimmu> am i in it?
[15:54] <Pici> yes
[15:55] <Pici> Does this sound familiar:
[15:55] <Pici> 2008-06-22T05:35:35 <idimmu> nomopofomo: try www.vcdquality.com for your warez masterbation
[15:55] <Pici> 2008-06-22T05:35:47 <idimmu> nfos are for criminal white van men men SCUM
[15:55] <Pici> 2008-06-22T05:36:41 <idimmu> i once had a date with a girl
[15:55] <Pici> 2008-06-22T05:36:46 <idimmu> she didnt fuck me
[15:55] <Myrtti> Pici: you're making my irssi feel filthy
[15:55] <Pici> Myrtti: sorry :(
[15:55] <Pici> Myrtti: I felt filthy reading it
[15:55] <Myrtti> I know, I read it too
[15:56]  * Pici hits himself on the head with a pastebin
[15:56] <Myrtti> so
[15:56] <Pici> idimmu: ?
[15:56] <Myrtti> idimmu: why do you want to join #ubuntu now?
[15:57] <idimmu> just a tick in the middle of a site release
[15:57] <idimmu> cos puppet isnt working in dapper due to dependancy issues
[15:57] <idimmu> and i was wondering if it was just me
[15:58] <Pici> Do you remember the events that I pasted above?
[15:58] <idimmu> not massively but yeah ok
[15:58] <idimmu> what do you want me to do? issue a public apology to pirates and women?
[15:59] <Pici> no. I want you to read and understand our irc guidelines.
[15:59] <Pici> !guidelines
[15:59] <Pici> Let me know when you are done with those/
[15:59] <idimmu> ok
[16:00] <Myrtti> elkbuntu elky_work ping
[16:01] <Pici> Myrtti: thanks ;)
[16:10] <jussio1> mobile internet rocks :D
[16:10] <idimmu> wok read the ircguidelines and the code of conduct
[16:10] <idimmu> -w
[16:12] <idimmu> pici am i missing something?
[16:12] <Pici> idimmu: one moment
[16:13] <idimmu> i think i might have missed a warning for being annoying
[16:13] <idimmu> before the ban
[16:13] <idimmu> ive actually digged up my logs now
[16:13] <idimmu> theres nothing in the code of conduct or guidelines about swearing or being off topic
[16:13] <Myrtti> compengi: #ubuntu-irc
[16:14] <compengi> Okay
[16:14] <compengi> lol
[16:14] <idimmu> especially considering it was a massively low traffic channel at that time
[16:16] <bazhang> idimmu, you dont understand why you were banned then?
[16:16] <idimmu> being offtopic and demeaning to women by using the word fuck?
[16:18] <idimmu> or was it my assertion that typically .nfo files containing ascii/ansi art are more often than not used by pirates, but in a somewhat enflamatory and colourful manner?
[16:18] <idimmu> why do you think i was banned bazhang ?
[16:19] <bazhang> idimmu, you seem to view the whole process here (of hoping to be unbanned) in a somewhat less than serious manner.
[16:20] <idimmu> only because it was bought to my attention i didnt really break any rules or get the warning before the ban i should have
[16:20] <idimmu> trust me
[16:20] <bazhang> idimmu, so you feel you have done nothing wrong.
[16:21] <idimmu> this is getting kind of circular
[16:21] <idimmu> i would like to rejoin the channel, contribute and learn please
[16:21] <bazhang> idimmu, feel free to depart then.
[16:21] <idimmu> i _am_ very sorry for talking random crap that was totally offtopic and not specific to ubuntu
[16:22] <bazhang> idimmu, this goes way beyond being offtopic.
[16:23] <idimmu> believe me when i am taking being banned very seriously
[16:23] <idimmu> and am happy to step up and accept responsibility for my actions
[16:23] <bazhang> idimmu, you have done nothing here today to indicate that is the case.
[16:23] <idimmu> yeah thats because im lieing
[16:24] <Myrtti> well
[16:24] <idimmu> 4 lines of rubbish being fussed over for no real reason
[16:24] <idimmu> once
[16:24] <bazhang> no need to stay here then idimmu
[16:24] <idimmu> omg terrorist act
[16:24] <Myrtti> idimmu: you're welcome to buy support services from canonical or to use the forums to aide you with your problems
[16:24] <idimmu> which dont actually break any of your guidelines or codes of conduct
[16:24] <bazhang> in light of what you have said today there is clearly zero reason to lift your ban.
[16:25] <idimmu> is this because i didnt get laid?
[16:25] <idimmu> is that it?
[16:25] <bazhang> !idle | idimmu
[16:26] <bazhang> idimmu, best to part now.
[16:26] <idimmu> or what, youll ban me *more*?
[16:26] <Myrtti> nope
[16:26] <Myrtti> we'll just kick you
[16:26] <idimmu> that will massively hurt my feelings
[16:26] <Myrtti> ouch.
[16:26] <idimmu> the internet is serious business after all
[16:28] <idimmu> what if i promise to be good?
[16:28] <Myrtti> after you said you've been lying the whole time...
[16:29] <Myrtti> do you *really* think we'd believe you?
[16:29] <idimmu> well, what exactly is it you're expecting me to do if i did rejoin the channel?
[16:30] <idimmu> i could either contribute and actually not act like a dick
[16:30] <idimmu> or utter something stupid and instantly get banned?
[16:30] <bazhang> idimmu, you wont be rejoining.
[16:30] <Myrtti> of course, elkbuntu might reassess the situation when she comes back
[16:30] <idimmu> i dont think you can really guarantee that
[16:31] <Myrtti> but I suspect her opinion wont differ ours
[16:31] <idimmu> that is fair enough
[16:33] <Pici> bazhang, Myrtti: Thank you for continuing, I had some pressing business to attend to here at work.
[16:35] <idimmu> so pici, sorry for trolling but it looks like im banned forever :(
[16:36] <Myrtti> Pici: if you don't mind reading the backlog and pointing out what I've perhaps missed
[16:36] <Pici> idimmu: You are banned until elkbuntu can assess the situation. She has been notified that there is something pending her decision.
[16:36] <idimmu> fantastic
[17:01] <jussio1> idimmu: as elkbuntu wont likely be back for at least 5 hours we ask you to part until then at least.
[17:03] <idimmu> ok, i will miss you guys, bye bye!!!
[17:16] <bazhang> hi alokito

[18:48] <Myrtti> eeep
[18:49] <Flannel> Seems you still have some senses!
[18:51] <PriceChild> nalioth: elkbuntu: LjL: (and everyone else really) Today is (one of) the day(s)! I'll send out the mail to the ML this evening listing candidates that have nominated themselves. Comments from others will then be welcome either on the candidates wiki pages or to the irc-council ML.
[18:51]  * nalioth blinks
[18:51] <Myrtti> yay
[18:51] <Pici> yay
[18:56] <PriceChild> nalioth: hmm?
[18:56] <nalioth> PriceChild: big long highlight
[18:56] <PriceChild> ahhh
[19:47] <Flannel> were those suppoesd to be colors?
[19:47] <Pici> Maybe...
[19:47] <Flannel> Oh, no, they were uspposed to be Is
[19:47] <PriceChild> Flannel: where?
[19:47] <Flannel> wIth gIrl I
[19:47] <Flannel> PriceChild: #u
[19:47] <PriceChild> oh and colours has a u in it.
[19:48]  * PriceChild runs
[19:48] <Flannel> PriceChild: I put the u right there!
[20:05] <Flannel> since.... if you don't get helped within 15 minutes, you should start spamming.
[20:05] <Pici> yeah...
[20:07] <Pici> banned
[20:07] <Pici> he was still spamming whilst he was muted.
[20:48] <Flannel> AndrewB: Er...
[20:49] <AndrewB> Flannel: just moving him to offtopic
[20:49] <Flannel> Right, that won't help
[20:49] <Flannel> He's going to be abusive whereever he is
[20:49] <Flannel> and actually, hes back with a new IP
[20:49] <AndrewB> oh
[20:49] <AndrewB> apologies
[20:50] <Flannel> I don't think "q" as an realname is going to work very well
[20:50] <Flannel> anyne else have suggestions?
[20:52] <AndrewB> he seems to be content with a quiet  i have tried contacting him also
[20:54] <Myrtti> *THEGOD!?=q@88.240.*.*
[20:56] <Myrtti> I guess he got bored
[20:56] <AndrewB> nope he is still here [in pm]
[21:05] <AndrewB> ok i think he may return as i need to leave and i can't keep him content in /msg
[21:07] <Myrtti> I'll look around
[21:09] <Myrtti> though now I have to reboot
[21:24] <Myrtti> now he's in #gentoo
[21:40] <Flannel> not surprising
[21:41] <PriceChild> Who is this?
[21:41] <Myrtti> and now he's gone
[21:41] <Myrtti> __THEGOD
[21:42] <Myrtti> 23:24 [freenode] @,-    #gentoo ___THEGOD H   0  n=q@88.240.159.130 [q]
[21:42] <Flannel> he had a different IP, and two underscores earlier
[21:42] <Myrtti> yeah
[21:43] <Myrtti> that's why I did /who 88.240.*
[21:51]  * idimmu pokes elky_work elkbuntu 
[21:52] <PriceChild> idimmu: anything I can help with?
[21:53] <idimmu> yes actually, i was wondering if elkbuntu was awake yet, as per our earlier conversation
[21:53] <Myrtti> PriceChild: banlog might tell more
[21:53] <Myrtti> PriceChild: also backlog
[21:55] <idimmu> Myrtti: i would actually like to apologise for earlier, i have a habit of treating all irc channels as silly irc channels and after a bit of chilling out realised that #ubuntu, and especially here, arent the places for that kind of behaviour
[21:55] <Myrtti> right, I'm off to bed to read that python book
[21:55] <PriceChild> @btlogin
[21:55] <Myrtti> tis too late
[21:55] <Myrtti> nini folks
[21:55] <idimmu> tata
[21:56] <PriceChild> idimmu: Why do you want to go back into #ubuntu?
[21:56] <idimmu> to discuss ubuntu, offer help and in particular right at the moment, muse about the puppet packages in dapper
[21:57] <PriceChild> those first and last should go in #ubuntu-offtopic
[21:57] <PriceChild> we try to keep #ubuntu support only
[21:58] <idimmu> support as in installation and use support?
[21:58] <idimmu> is there a channel faq?
[21:58] <PriceChild> as in, if someone has a problem with any part of ubuntu, they ask their questino, and hope for an answer
[21:59] <idimmu> not trying to be a nuisance, but would dependancy issues whilst insatlling packages come under that umbrella?
[22:00] <idimmu> (packages from the official distribution repositories)
[22:02] <PriceChild> yes
[22:03] <PriceChild> you're trying to install a package, it doesn't work, that is a problem, you can ask for help in #ubuntu
[22:05] <idimmu> woohoo
[22:05] <idimmu> now i know i have a lot of apologising to do re. my ban ~6 weeks ago and the way i handled myself earlier today
[22:06] <idimmu> but i would quite like to discuss the problem i am having in #ubuntu in a civilised manner
[22:09] <PriceChild> idimmu: If you're now happy with the topic for #ubuntu, and promise to abide by the guidelines which I believe you've already read, then I'm willing to let you back in I think.
[22:10] <idimmu> i have read the guidelines and i do promise to abide by them
[22:12] <PriceChild> idimmu: do you have a link to the guidelines?
[22:13] <idimmu> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines
[22:13] <idimmu> ive read it all and the code of conduct today
[22:14] <PriceChild> idimmu: good good, well I've removed the ban, please play nice.
[22:14] <idimmu> thanks very much and im sorry to have troubled you all!
[22:15] <idimmu> have a good day!
[23:20]  * ompaul has to get off irc
[23:21] <ompaul> I scored too high in the nerdy class of test argh
[23:22] <nickrud> ompaul, that is a lost cause. Reverse your perception, it's the only way to keep your pride ;)
[23:24] <ompaul> nickrud, ok but ehh a score of 95
[23:24] <ompaul> heheh
[23:24] <nickrud> my god, nearly perfect :p
[23:24] <ompaul> nickrud, :)
[23:24] <ompaul> what they said was: All hail the monstrous nerd. You are by far the SUPREME NERD GOD!!!
[23:24] <ompaul> nickrud, hmm I would have said geeky but then again
[23:25] <nickrud> probably have too good a haircut to be geeky
[23:25] <ompaul> nickrud, I got a 7 on top four around the sides today
[23:25] <ompaul> I'm 45 I have to keep it short or they will arrest me :)
[23:26] <nickrud> oh, yeah, nerdy. Non-nerds get scissor cuts :)
[23:26] <ompaul> I even know the numbers :)
[23:26] <ompaul> but am confused are they digit numbers, or letter numbers
[23:27]  * nickrud shakes head, what a nerdy question
[23:27] <ompaul> hehehe
[23:27] <nickrud> hahahahhaha. What's the test?
[23:28] <ompaul> http://www.nerdtests.com
[23:28] <ompaul> just plain silly
[23:28] <nickrud> got 5 before I need to try work again
[23:30] <ompaul> nickrud,  http://www.nerdtests.com/images/badge/c97df89bda51165b.gif
[23:32] <nickrud> 72
[23:32] <ompaul> :)
[23:32] <nickrud> couldn't cut it on the elements :(
[23:32] <ompaul> what does that make you
[23:32] <nickrud> http://www.nerdtests.com/images/badge/a4e1e71afb64d9f1.gif
[23:36] <warriorforgod> How can I find out why I was banned from the #ubuntu channel?  I haven't even said anything in there for 2 weeks or so.
[23:37] <ompaul> @btlogin
[23:37] <nickrud> hm, ubottu isn't responding
[23:37] <nickrud> !ping
[23:37] <ompaul> I can has history
[23:37] <Flannel> er... works for me?
[23:38] <nickrud> @btlogin
[23:38] <ompaul> 08-08-20T23:16:13 <warriorforgod> VERSION
[23:38] <ompaul> 2008-08-20T23:16:16 *** FloodBot2 sets mode: +b *!*@ip98-161-18-92.om.om.cox.net
[23:38] <nickrud> nothing. I haz been demoted?
[23:38] <warriorforgod> Hmmm.  Interesting.
[23:38] <ompaul> nickrud, I haz been been ignored more like
[23:38] <ompaul> warriorforgod, that seems to be something
[23:38] <ompaul> you said two days ago
[23:39] <ompaul> just going by the dates
[23:39] <warriorforgod> I don't remember saying anything in there.  Only thing I can think of is I must have pasted something in the wrong screen when I was working on scripting.
[23:40] <ompaul> !worksforme | Flannel
[23:40]  * ompaul grins in a most twisted (think python networking) way
[23:41] <ompaul> warriorforgod, so that is why you were banned
[23:41] <Flannel> ompaul: why would that single line cause a ban though?
[23:41] <warriorforgod> I am trying to find what I even typed
[23:41] <Pici> Flannel: because he sent a ctcp to the channel
[23:41] <ompaul>  / c t c p something ;-)
[23:42] <warriorforgod> That is what it was then.  I was playing around with scripts and must have typed in the wrong screen by accident.
[23:42] <warriorforgod> Well I admit my mistake.
[23:42] <ompaul> warriorforgod, up arrow in that window (whatever)
[23:43] <ompaul> and see your last couple of lines
[23:43] <warriorforgod> It was nice being involved in the community, and I apologize for doing that.
[23:43] <ompaul> warriorforgod, I suppose I could translate that into please remove ban ;-)
[23:43]  * ompaul computes
[23:43] <ompaul> yeap that is what I see there
[23:43] <ompaul> :)
[23:44] <ompaul> give me a moment to evaluate something
[23:44]  * nickrud thinks he'll make a real badge and mail it to ompaul
[23:44]  * Flannel feeds ompaul some more nybbles.
[23:44] <warriorforgod> ompaul, That is up to you guys.  I understand that I violated a policy, and if a ban is the necassary action so be it.
[23:44] <warriorforgod> I am willing ot accept the consequences of my actions.
[23:44] <ompaul> ehh don't be so fast I might just lift the ban
[23:44] <warriorforgod> k
[23:45] <Pici> dont mind ompaul... hes just being... wel..
[23:45] <Pici> !ompaul
[23:45] <warriorforgod> lol
[23:46] <ompaul> you dare to laugh at me (AFTER I LIFT THE BAN) I should be insulted but I wrote the factoid !
[23:46] <warriorforgod> I though it was clever.
[23:46] <ompaul> there was a bot in a channel called #nohelp on a different network about 10 years ago
[23:46] <warriorforgod> *thought
[23:46] <ompaul> and if you did !$nick_in_channel
[23:46] <ompaul> it would return that
[23:46] <ompaul> else it would do seen
[23:47] <ompaul> you could only get help in #nohelp if you had been there for 6 months or more
[23:47] <ompaul> it was nuts
[23:47] <ompaul> and rather fun
[23:47] <warriorforgod> sounds like it.
[23:48] <ompaul> so there you
[23:48] <ompaul> go
[23:48] <ompaul> ehh mind what you type - we only know you by what you type and note you triggered a bots response
[23:48] <warriorforgod> Thank you very much.  I will be more careful in what window I am typing into in the future..
[23:48] <ompaul> so that in itself will tell you something about something
[23:49] <ompaul> what exactly well that we shall leave as an exercise for the reader
[23:51] <ompaul> warriorforgod, do you have another further questions for us?
[23:52] <ompaul> dear me I really feel like using this factoid !l33t now
[23:52] <ompaul> !l33t
[23:53] <warriorforgod> Nop that is about it.  You have been very helpful.
[23:53] <warriorforgod> Thx again.
[23:53] <PriceChild> ahhh nickrud, how feindish
[23:53] <PriceChild> nickrud: Right, time to write that ML post and put you out of your misery.
