rookeeeeeeeeedont recall at all01:25
bazhangirc.geekpanties.com? does that ring a bell?01:25
rookeeeeeeeeedid i say dont go to geekpanties.com01:25
bazhangwhat about it? what is its purpose rookeeeeeeeee ?01:26
rookeeeeeeeee?01:26
rookeeeeeeeeeim sorry?01:26
rookeeeeeeeeeare you there?01:27
rookeeeeeeeeebazhang01:31
rookeeeeeeeeeabuse of ops01:32
bazhangrookeeeeeeeee, yes I am here01:32
rookeeeeeeeeeplease explain01:32
bazhangrookeeeeeeeee, you have no recollection of mentioning this website?01:32
rookeeeeeeeeeyes i asked an op why i couldnt access it, the same op helped me access it.01:33
rookeeeeeeeeeand even asked me what the site url was01:34
rookeeeeeeeeein the main chat window01:34
bazhangrookeeeeeeeee, and what is that site about ? care to enlighten us?01:36
rookeeeeeeeeeubuntu01:36
bazhangrookeeeeeeeee, care to clarify that a bit?01:37
rookeeeeeeeeeubuntu irc01:37
rookeeeeeeeeeany further questions?01:37
rookeeeeeeeeewell?01:51
rookeeeeeeeeeI've been waiting here for nearly an hour01:51
rookeeeeeeeeeover an hour01:51
LjLrookeeeeeeeee, hi01:54
rookeeeeeeeeehi01:54
rookeeeeeeeeeok whats the problem01:55
LjLrookeeeeeeeee: we're reviewing your banforward. i'm sorry it's taking long.01:55
rookeeeeeeeeeok01:55
bazhangrookeeeeeeeee, the operator who forwarded you here should be around shortly; is there a big hurry to get into #ubuntu ?01:55
bazhangie the freenode one?01:55
rookeeeeeeeeei have to go to sleep soon01:57
LjLrookeeeeeeeee, i'm a bit worried with some of your behavior in #ubuntu01:58
bazhangrookeeeeeeeee, so shall we resolve this tomorrow then ?01:58
rookeeeeeeeeewhy is that LjL01:58
LjLwell rookeeeeeeeee, you didn't always seem to understand that #ubuntu is strictly a support channel for ubuntu technical support issues01:59
LjLand not, for instance, a place to find buddies to help you in other contexts01:59
rookeeeeeeeeei come there to find ubuntu buddies01:59
LjLwell rookeeeeeeeee, that's not the reason that channel exists01:59
rookeeeeeeeee.01:59
bazhangit is support only rookeeeeeeeee 02:00
rookeeeeeeeeewell im trying to find "ubuntu buddies" so they can support me02:00
bazhangyou were asking about 'who will be my ubuntu buddy?' a day or two ago02:00
LjLrookeeeeeeeee, i'm afraid we can't help you with that, and neither can #ubuntu02:01
rookeeeeeeeeei got a resounding response 02:01
bazhangyep02:01
bazhangto take it to #ubuntu-offtopic or somewhere else entirely02:02
LjLrookeeeeeeeee, also, something like "why do people use old versions of ubuntu?" is definitely not a support question02:02
rookeeeeeeeeeit could be a support question, I could learn something from that that could enhance my ubuntu experience.02:03
LjLwell, that sort of extremely indirect support questions, if you would like to call them such, is best discussed in places like #ubuntu-offtopic02:03
bazhangrookeeeeeeeee, it is not a support question. support = problems with your current install.02:04
rookeeeeeeeeeok02:04
rookeeeeeeeeeunderstood02:04
bazhangrookeeeeeeeee, so you need to get some sleep correct?02:04
rookeeeeeeeeeyes but are you done?02:05
LjLrookeeeeeeeee: well, i'd like when you have time to read our channel guidelines and other important bits of information02:05
LjLfirst02:05
LjL!etiquette > rookeeeeeeeee    (rookeeeeeeeee, see the private message from ubottu)02:05
rookeeeeeeeeeok, i will. will there be a test?02:06
rookeeeeeeeeeim serious02:07
LjLrookeeeeeeeee: i trust you'll just read them and ensure you follow them02:07
rookeeeeeeeeeok02:07
LjLrookeeeeeeeee: so am i - no, there won't be a test02:07
rookeeeeeeeeethere's no limit to the number of questions i can ask?02:07
LjLi just want you to tell us honestly when you've read it02:08
LjLrookeeeeeeeee, what do you mean now?02:08
rookeeeeeeeeeas long as im not asking step-by-step questions that are explained in texts 02:08
LjLrookeeeeeeeee: you mean in #ubuntu?02:08
rookeeeeeeeeeyes02:09
LjLrookeeeeeeeee: well, certainly if you ask tons of questions that are easily answered by the manuals, people will eventually stop answering you02:09
rookeeeeeeeeeok02:09
bazhangrookeeeeeeeee, the ubuntu buddy type of questions? yes, there is a limit on that : Zero02:09
LjLrookeeeeeeeee: but there's certainly no theoretical limit on support questions you can ask!02:09
LjLyes, aside from those of course02:09
rookeeeeeeeeeok understood02:10
LjLrookeeeeeeeee: you see, the channel needs to be kept clean of noise02:10
rookeeeeeeeeeyes02:10
LjLrookeeeeeeeee: it's busy enough with actual, important support questions alone02:10
rookeeeeeeeeeyes02:10
rookeeeeeeeeeyes i understood that before02:11
bazhangchat in #ubuntu-offtopic rookeeeeeeeee 02:11
LjLrookeeeeeeeee: we even get people purposely disrupting the channel sometimes02:11
rookeeeeeeeeeok02:11
bazhangrookeeeeeeeee, if you have a doubt, then dont ask in #ubuntu02:11
LjLrookeeeeeeeee: even with automated programs that do that02:11
rookeeeeeeeeei imagine they dont last long02:11
rookeeeeeeeeewell its moon and stars time02:12
rookeeeeeeeeecan i access ubuntu tomorrow02:12
LjLi believe so02:12
LjLyou might need to check back here if not02:13
LjLwhen you've read the guidelines and other things, just state that, and it'll be sorted.02:13
rookeeeeeeeeeok02:13
rookeeeeeeeeeeverything ubottu says?02:14
LjLyes, the things in !etiquette, they're mostly just little bits of information, but the most important are !coc and !guidelines, that contain links02:14
rookeeeeeeeeeok02:15
rookeeeeeeeeegood night02:15
LjLgood night!02:17
bazhangDrDerek, was that sorted out yet?02:20
LjLoh right DrDerek, i forgot entirely02:24
LjLrookeeeeeeeee could you please leave this channel now, as we have other business to deal with?02:25
Pici!idle | rookeeeeeeeee 02:29
ubotturookeeeeeeeee: Please keep in mind that this channel is for operator/abuse questions only, and we ask you to part when you have no further business here, in order to keep track of users with pending inquiries.02:29

bazhangikonia, roookkeeeeeee^10 was around earlier; wanted to hear from you before letting him back in (if that is the course of action to take)13:32
ikonianot at the moment I want to find out a bit more about the channel / server he was referencing as it's not an "ubuntu support channel" as he claimed it's a network with 2 real users and 1000+ bots which look ripe for attack13:33
bazhangyeah saw that on the btlog13:33
ikoniaapprantly it's supposed to be a secrect channel, therefore if he knows about it he knows what it is and it is not a support chanel13:33
ikoniathere are clones of freenode channels on it with hundreds of bots in each, then a few real discussion channels with about 10 users discussing thing13:34
bazhangwhoa13:34
ikoniait seems a good idea to talk to him about it before allowing him to be in #ubuntu as I don't know what it's all about, and according to the owner "it's a secrect channel that people shouldn't know about213:35
ikoniahence the concern13:35
bazhangwell he was going on and on about finding a 'ubuntu buddy' ; that alone is enough to keep him out imo (the persistent off-topicness)13:36
ikoniaI'm not banning him - (although I take your point) I just want to know a little more about his involvment in this before giving him acess, I don't know if it's overkill, but it seems worth checking in my view13:37
Piciikonia: The BT log for when he was removed for idling has the entire conversation when he was here earlier.13:37
ikoniaPici: got parto f the one from today13:37
ikoniapart of13:37
ikoniaI got the jist of what was going on 13:37
ikoniaI was however asleep, dissapointed to have missed him to find out more13:38
bazhang* [dongs] (n=lol@l212168.ppp.asahi-net.or.jp): jews  <--- seemed to have abusing/overriding the !ohmy earlier13:38
ikoniawhere was that13:39
bazhangabout 8 hrs ago13:40
bazhangmain channel #ubuntu13:40
ikoniait's been very quiet today, and some good discussion going on 13:40
ikoniapositive day 13:40
PiciI had over a page of away hilights for when I was sleeping., thats usually not good13:41
ikoniaPici from 7:00am uk time until now, it's been good as gold13:41
ikoniathe last person to op in there was me at 21:30 last night, so that is good13:42
PriceChildbazhang: wow is it already?14:08
PriceChildoh of course it is, gutsy *moves on*14:08
PiciPriceChild: So is Breezy.14:08
bazhangI think he can change to old releases repo if he wants to upgrade though PriceChild 14:08
PriceChildPici: shh.14:09
* Pici wonders if everyone is lagged, or they just don't read what other people say and feel like repeating answers.14:09
LjLPici: i wonder that often too14:10
* genii puts on a fresh pot of coffee14:43
Garymilk and one sugar pls genii 14:44
LjLgenii why don't you put up a coffee company with myrtti, you'd probably save something on the mass production14:44
* genii fixes Gary a strong coffee with organic milk and unrefined sugar14:45
geniiLjL: Interesting idea....14:45
* Gary gets caffine high and trolls #Ubuntu 14:45

* Pici get high on ubuntu and trolls Gary 14:46
ikoniaha14:46
LjLit's called "trolling" now?14:46
PiciWe actually spent part of a session at UDS talking about Ubuntu Addiction.,14:46
geniiPici: Thats actually something they have meetings scheduled about???14:47
Picigenii: I think it was part of the round table discussion.14:47
PiciIt was related to burnout.14:47
geniiAh14:47
LjLPici: it's like you had spent part of a drug controlling table engaging in drug intake, isn't it?14:48
PiciLjL: Half of the people weren't participating, just looking at their laptops.14:49
LjLPici: quod erat demonstrandum.14:49

ikoniabazhang: I've stopped banning nicks apart from ones he uses on a regular basis as we'll fill the ban list15:04
ikoniajust started removing him15:05
bazhangikonia, so just remove? wont he just keep coming back? ie under same name?15:06
ikonianah15:06
bazhangk15:06
ikoniaonce you remove him he knows he's busted and normally either goes away for a while or comes back with a new nick15:06
bazhangright15:06
ikoniaI personally only ban the names I know he's used more than once15:06
ikoniathat way it's a nice trap for him to get forwarded here15:06
ikoniaeg: his client starts up with those nicks15:07

bazhang[c0re] been unbanned? or just unintentionally ban evading16:26
Picicheck the bt?16:27
bazhangyep he is still banned16:27
bazhangand ban evading now, decided his time is up and he has rejoined16:27
[c0re]hi bazhang16:28
bazhang<[c0re]> bazhang, i came here after 70 hours16:28
[c0re]yes16:28
[c0re]more than 70 hours later16:28
bazhang[c0re], thats not the way it works16:28
[c0re]then which way its works?16:29
bazhangyou get unbanned first, then rejoin16:29
bazhangnot ban evade when you decide it is time to rejoin16:29
[c0re]its was in autojoin that time.16:30
bazhang[c0re], you said you had disabled that16:31
[c0re]yes16:31
[c0re]but i joined #ubuntu by self this time....16:31
bazhangyou rejoined this time, but you are still banned there16:31
[c0re]coz you asked me to read the TOS and i did16:32
[c0re]then i joined that channel16:34
bazhang[c0re], you ban-evaded again today.16:34
[c0re]lol why?16:35
bazhangPici, care to make a ruling here? ikonia you have a view?16:37
Pici[c0re]: Your ban was set on your IP address, your IP address changed. We did not lift the ban. That is why bazhang invited you here.16:39
Pici[c0re]: Do you understand?16:40
bazhang[c0re], you still here? you understand how unilaterally deciding it is time to rejoin and in the process ban-evading is not the way to go about this?17:16
bazhang[c0re], if you do not wish to discuss this, then please part the channel thanks.17:26
bazhanghischild, hi17:30
hischildbazhang, hello 17:30
hischildI have another question about factoids ... the !webmin factoid poins to the !ebox factoid, however from what i've seen so far ebox is broken on intrepid. 17:31
LjjjLhischild: sadly true17:31
LjjjLhischild: but then webmin isn't in the repositories to begin with17:31
hischildLjjjL, that's true, but i'm still looking for a web based panel to administrate with. I thought ebox would be the solution, and for 8.04 it appears to be good. However, since i run only 8.10 on my laptop and pc, it's kind of hard getting it all to work. 17:32
hischildAnyway, wouldn't it be better to make a note of it not being supported in intrepid so far?17:32
LjjjLhischild, i added that note to the wiki page linked by ubotu17:32
LjjjLhischild: i thought i wouldn't crowd the factoid itself17:33
hischildLjjjL, oh? hmm, must've missed it... 17:33
LjjjLhischild: unless someone else has removed it...17:33
LjjjL!ebox17:33
ubottuebox is a web-based GUI interface for administering a server. It is designed to work with Ubuntu/Debian style configuration management. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/eBox17:33
LjjjLno it's there17:33
hischildi believe you, i must've missed it. 17:33
hischildI just have loads of time over, now i that i've quit gaming. 17:33
LjjjLhischild: i don't personally have any alternatives to suggest17:34
LjjjLhischild: but look at my notice on the wiki, the bug linked should have workarounds for the package in intrepid17:34
hischildI'll take a look, it's just that it caught my eye looking at it. Even more so, because i'm doing some research on what you can do with ubuntu as in terms of administration on its system17:35
hischildBy the looks it won't be fixed in intrepid?17:35
LjjjLhischild: i don't honestly know, could end up in backports if nothing else17:36
hischildLjjjL, Looking a bit further, this page also shows up --> https://help.ubuntu.com/8.10/serverguide/C/ebox.html17:36
hischildsince it's not a community doc, i'm wondering how it ended up there. As it's broken, it ought not even to exist right?17:37
* LjjjL raises hands17:38
hischildhaha ok. So who should i contact about that?17:39
LjjjLhischild: #ubuntu-doc for the documentation i guess17:40
LjjjLhischild: as for the package itself being broken, well the bug report is there17:41
hischildLjjjL, yeah, i guess i can't do much there. I'll make a note to that channel. Thnx for confirming and the help. 17:41

ikonia91.149.44.3 almost certainly, but your probably right19:00
ikoniathe fact that I've noticed it before suggests it may not be best indication though19:00

PiciLjL: Do you have the ability to have ubottu join new channels? 19:28
Piciubottu: join #ubuntu-kernel19:32
ubottuError: You don't have the admin capability. If you think that you should have this capability, be sure that you are identified before trying again. The 'whoami' command can tell you if you're identified.19:32
ubottuError: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :)19:32
Picimeh19:32
geniiGah. Work. /away19:34
naliothPici: are we having bot issues?19:50
Picinalioth: apw asked for the bot to be in #ubuntu-kernel, but I'm not sure if it was ever there. I don't idle there.19:51
naliothdo they just need a bot?19:53
naliothwe try to spread the load on them, you know19:53
naliothif everyone asks for ubottu, it'll crash19:54
Picinalioth: I do, I just didn't know which bot they had before. Anyway, the channel doesn't look like it gets much traffic.19:54
naliothPici: well, they've got ubot3 now19:56
Picinalioth: Okay :)19:57
Jack_SparrowDoh20:05
PiciJack_Sparrow: At least you had something technical in your clipboard20:06
Jack_Sparrowyea20:07
Jack_SparrowJust feel stupid.. Huge cloth bandaid isnt helping either20:08
LjLgnnn stupid proxy20:10
PiciYou split20:10
PiciYou split20:11
LjLPici: yes but i also subsequently disconnected, didn't get identified again, so didn't get +u, so have half of my channels unjoined20:12
HobbseePriceChild: / nalioth can you tell me who owns #launchpad-dev?21:00
HobbseeThe launchpad guys want to open it back up, but don't know who registered it, as it was years ago, nor what the password is21:00
Hobbseeor any other staffers....21:02

ikoniaoops21:08
LjL<[c0re]> what is the reason bazhang_ wont let me join #ubuntu?  <[c0re]> he asked me to read the TOS and join after 48 and i did.. then joined after more than 70 hours...  <LjL> i don't know or remember right now but i have little trouble thinking you might deserve a ban after what you just said.  <[c0re]> yes i agree  <[c0re]> but i gone mad... he didnt allow me to join #ubuntu  <LjL> is going mad also the reason why you're suggesting people to rm -r *?  21:08
LjL<[c0re]> in #bash  <[c0re]> ?  <LjL> yes  <[c0re]> lol  <[c0re]> that is not #ubuntu  <LjL> you're an idiot, expect no sympathy from me.21:08

LjLlook at #fn now ikonia21:11
LjLisn't this suddenly becoming the same person as someone else we've known?21:12
LjLHobbsee: you came in late, he's been muted21:13
LjLhe was asking to be k-lined anyway21:13
HobbseeLjL: wasn't going there for that ;)21:13
HobbseeLjL: was looking for a staffer.21:13
LjLah right21:13
ikoniaLjL: fn ?21:13
LjLikonia: freenode?21:13
Hobbseebut it appears there are none to be had, at all21:13
ikoniaLjL: yup21:14
LjLwho was it the other one asking for a k-line that badly21:15
LjLthe name escapes me now21:15
LjLHobbsee: tomaw21:18
HobbseeLjL: just PM'd him, we'll see if i get a response...21:18
naliothHobbsee: did you look before asking? #launchpad and #launchpad-dev are "owned" by the same person21:28
Hobbseenalioth: of course i looked.21:28
Hobbseehowever, i'm a mere mortal, unlike you.21:28

LjLnalioth: neither is asking to look when one clearly can't21:30
mneptokHobbsee: so then how stupid are you? i need to finish my chart for Mark.21:30
Hobbseejust showing you that i wasn't an idiot, and that not all of us can see what you can.21:30
naliothmy point is that anyone needing to open it up, should have  no problems if the request is made in #launchpad21:30
Hobbseemneptok: heh21:30
naliothso i'm not sure why y'all are having trouble21:30
LjLnalioth: where exactly should hobbsee have looked?21:31
naliothmy apologies, Hobbsee.21:37
