 phix:  I always liked:   "sudo rm -rf *.* "
[00:55] <Gary> @btlogin
[01:00] <genii> I'm tempted to !danger
[01:01] <genii> nvm read wrongly that it wasn't an itinerant user 
[01:40] <bazhang> fryguy> RequinB4: get a faster pc
[01:40] <bazhang> still? 
[01:40] <bazhang> had a talk with him via PM (nearly an hour) about this kind of help
[02:30] <genii> @btlogin
[02:33] <elkbuntu> bazhang, he falls into the category of 'People who cannot learn common decency to save themselves'
[02:34] <genii> When I go /away someone keep an eye on antiroach  in #k    he's doing the:  rm -rf *      thing
[02:34] <bazhang> elkbuntu, something along the line of wols ?
[02:34] <elkbuntu> yeah, but wols actually knows what he's talking about.
[02:34] <bazhang> true
[02:35] <elkbuntu> wols knows what he's talking about, but he just does it in a way that makes me want to utilise a 2x4 as a cluebat, where clue = people skills.
[02:38] <Pici> Does that mean we can or cannot hit him with a bat?
[02:38] <bazhang> his EQ could use some work indeed
[02:39] <genii> I'm all for the bat
[02:39] <bazhang> work /away ; if necrosan wonders why he was banned, please tell him #ubuntu is not channel cheesecake
[02:39] <bazhang> oh nice pm from him
[02:41] <bazhang> http://paste.ubuntu.com/88928/
[02:43] <pronto> hey, how do you get spiff optical sound working
[02:44] <pronto> SPDIF
[02:45] <nalioth> andrew__: pronto: can we help yoU?
[02:45] <pronto> ?
[02:45] <pronto> yeah
[02:45] <pronto> hopefully
[02:45] <pronto> fyi: the #ubuntu channel is forwarded here 
[02:46] <nalioth> no, it's not.
[02:46] <pronto>  * #ubuntu #ubuntu-ops :Forwarding to another channel
[02:46] <nalioth> pronto: _you_ are being forwarded
[02:46] <pronto> ok, thats not my problem
[02:47] <pronto> my problem is about sound, with spdif
[02:47] <nalioth> pronto: would you know why?
[02:47] <pronto> no idea
[02:47] <nalioth> this is not a support channel
[02:47] <pronto> well i treid to join #ubuntu
[02:47] <pronto> but i come here
[02:47] <nalioth> and now we're trying to figure out why
[02:51] <pronto> hello?
[02:53] <genii> It was jrib
[02:54] <jrib> i usually forward here when people do something bad and then leave before we can tell you not to do it
[02:54] <pronto> i didnt do anything :\
[02:54] <pronto> i just need help with sound
[02:54] <jrib> @bansearch pronto
[02:55] <pronto> my ip, but not me
[02:55] <jrib> 2008-12-04T18:38:42 <pronto> meh fuck this place, ubuntu is a pos
[02:55] <pronto> my brother is an asshole though
[02:55] <jrib> not you?
[02:55] <jrib> "not you?" referring to what I pasted
[02:56] <elkbuntu> wow, it's amazing how every single person who gets caught out has a brother.
[02:56] <pronto> i just need help with sound :\
[02:57] <jrib> pronto: do you admit to saying what I pasted?
[02:57] <pronto> no
[02:57] <jrib> suit yourself
[02:57] <nalioth> andrew__: can we help you?
[02:57] <jrib> pronto: you are responsible for what happens on your ip
[02:57] <pronto> i apploogize for my brother, but i just need helpwith sound
[02:58] <jrib> and it's kind of strange that your brother uses the same nick as you
[02:58] <pronto> not really
[02:58] <pronto> he uses my computer from tiem totime
[02:58] <jrib> pronto: you probably want to choose your own nick so you don't get confused with your brother
[02:58] <elkbuntu> your brother also seems smarter than you
[02:59] <pronto> this is not the point, i just need help with a sound issue 
[02:59] <jrib> pronto: you can't get help as long as your banned, so it is the point
[02:59] <jrib> you're
[02:59] <pronto> then can you unban me please
[02:59] <pronto> im part of a ubuntu loco team :|
[02:59] <elkbuntu> not until we're sure that this will never happen again.
[02:59] <elkbuntu> is your brother also a part?
[02:59] <elkbuntu> which team?
[03:00] <pronto> maryland
[03:00] <elkbuntu> i shall go ask them for a character reference
[03:00] <elkbuntu> for you and your brother.
[03:00] <pronto> i havent been with them since summer
[03:00] <jrib> while you wait, please read what ubottu is about to send you
[03:00] <jrib> !etiquette > pronto
[03:00] <jrib> !guidelines > pronto
[03:00] <elkbuntu> pronto, so you're not part then, and you lied?
[03:00] <pronto> what?
[03:00] <pronto> i never set that part up
[03:00] <pronto> :|
[03:00] <pronto> i went to the meating
[03:01] <pronto> chuck frain 
[03:01] <pronto> craig younkins
[03:02] <elkbuntu> pronto, basically we need to be sure that you will behave, and will not let your brother use your accounts anymore. if we have to ban you both to keep him out - we will.
[03:02] <pronto> i will
[03:02] <elkbuntu> you will what?
[03:02] <pronto> i keep my comp with a password now
[03:02] <pronto> behave
[03:02] <elkbuntu> right, and have you read the guidelines?
[03:02] <pronto> before i just let it open when i was gone
[03:02] <pronto> yeah
[03:03] <jrib> pronto: do you agree to abide by them?
[03:03] <pronto> yes i do
[03:03] <elkbuntu> jrib, let him back in on probation.
[03:04] <jrib> elkbuntu: agreed
[03:04] <jrib> pronto: you may rejoin #ubuntu again, but keep in mind what we discussed here
[03:06] <elkbuntu> ungrateful poop
[03:07] <elkbuntu> he didnt even ask the question in #ubuntu, he just wanted to get back in
[03:07] <elkbuntu> and they wonder why we dont trust them
[03:07] <genii> Heh
[03:07] <genii> "my brother did it" ... riiiiiiggghht
[03:08] <nalioth> andrew__: can we help you?
[03:08] <Pici> Guess not.
[03:53] <Panarchy> hi
[03:53] <Panarchy> Can someone please unban me from #ubuntu
[03:53] <Panarchy> Thanks in advance (was blocked for 24 hours 48 hours ago)
[04:02]  * genii prods jrib
[04:05] <Panarchy> lol
[04:06] <Panarchy> Looks like I
[04:06] <Panarchy> m
[04:06] <Panarchy> Still banned
[04:06] <Panarchy> Some help please
[04:06] <genii> Panarchy: The op which banned you must unban you. In this case jrib
[04:07] <Panarchy> I sent jrib a PM
[04:07] <Panarchy> but he seems to be away
[04:08] <genii> Panarchy: I would suggest to return later then to contact him, as idling in here doesn't help your cause
[04:11] <jrib> Panarchy: why were you banned?
[04:14] <Panarchy> jrib: You banned me
[04:14] <Panarchy> For having multi-line questions
[04:14] <jrib> Panarchy: I know I banned you.  I'm asking you if you know why you were banned
[04:14] <Panarchy> Yes, I do
[04:14] <Panarchy> It was for having multi-line questions
[04:15] <jrib> Panarchy: yes, do you understand that you should keep your questions/responses on a single line and not use Enter to break up your thought?
[04:15] <jrib> s
[04:15] <Panarchy> lol
[04:15] <Panarchy> (sorry, irony)
[04:15] <Panarchy> Yes, I do
[04:16] <jrib> now we have a good question.  How do tell floodbot to let Panarchy in? :)
[04:17] <Panarchy> lol
[04:17] <Panarchy> Well hopefully it is figured out and I can come back to the channel
[04:17] <jrib> Panarchy: you're still replying with multiple lines :/
[04:18] <Panarchy> :P:, sorry
[04:18] <jrib> Panarchy: try now.  I ran the command, but got no feedback from the bot.  Come back here if you still can't get in

[04:20] <Panarchy> Nup, still isn't working
[04:20] <Panarchy> I'll logout then log back in
[04:20]  * genii thinks about mibbit
[04:21] <Pici> Panarchy: try once more
[04:21] <Panarchy> Okay, well that didn't seem to work...
[04:21] <Pici> Please
[04:21] <jrib> thanks Pici
[04:21] <Panarchy> This command? /join #ubuntu
[04:22] <Pici> Panarchy: No, part proxy-users and then try
[04:22] <Panarchy> Okay
[04:22] <Panarchy> Ah finally
[04:22] <Panarchy> Thanks
[04:22] <jrib> ...
[04:23] <Pici> Also. LtL looks alot like LjL
[04:23] <jrib> lil
[04:23] <jrib> l_jL
[04:23] <genii> jrib: He seems to just not know how to NOT type things on a single line.....
[05:36]  * genii sips
[05:38] <genii> Turing test ... FAIL
[05:38] <genii> Sorry, just getting tired.
[06:40] <genii> Well, bedtime. 
[06:45] <hischild> obscure names such as countrysheepfucker aren't allowed, are the shorter versions (like the one in #ubuntu atm) allowed?
[07:08] <maco> was the user sw33ty_9iR7 mentioned in here to any of you?
[07:12] <hischild> maco, not that i've seen, but you'll have to call !ops to get their attention. They seem to be afk. 
[07:24] <maco> this internet connection is crappy
[07:26] <maco> anyway, there's a user, sw33ty_9iR7, that PM'd me without prior initiation of contact from #ubuntu
[07:27] <maco> i was about to sign off, so i dont know what she wanted, except, it seemed, to pound the keyboard at me
[07:27] <maco> she said "hyyyyyyy" and "9bunkkkkkkkkkk"
[07:29] <nixternal> that's fulatin
[07:30] <maco> that's what?
[07:32] <nixternal> I have no idea, jusst made it up
[07:32] <Gary> nixternal: lol
[07:33] <hischild> hmm yeah i'll agree with you nixternal, it has to be fulatin
[07:33] <maco> ...
[09:28] <bazhang> odog777, how may we help you
[09:34] <odog777> bazhang is his a help room?
[09:35] <odog777> is this a help room
[09:36] <bazhang> odog777, no, that would be in #ubuntu or #kubuntu , depending on if you are using gnome or kde
[09:36] <topyli> for values of "help" :)
[09:36] <odog777> This channel is for operator/abuse questions in the IRC Team domain only
[09:36] <bazhang> odog777, if you are looking for support, this is for items spelled out in the topic, please dont idle here
[09:37] <odog777> nope I was just looking for conversation....i'll find another room
[09:37] <topyli> try #ubuntu-offtopic
[09:37] <bazhang> odog777, that is #ubuntu-offtopic
[09:37] <bazhang> argh
[09:49] <hischild> heh ... 
[09:49] <hischild> hey did any of you see my previous question? 
[09:57] <Gary> hischild: what nick were you refering to?
[09:58] <hischild> if i remember correctly, it was spelled cntrysheepfacker
[09:59] <hischild> Gary, he's no longer in the channel, but the general question remains. 
[11:38]  * jussi01 pokes, prods and tickles ikonia
[11:38] <jussi01> hischild: anything else you need?
[12:30] <hischild> jussi01, i was kind of waiting for the answer. 
[12:33] <hischild> jussi01, I guess the general question would be, where is the line concerning names drawn?
[12:40] <jussi01> hischild: its fairly simple, if you see something that concerns you, drop in here and let us know thats what we are here for ;)
[12:41] <elkbuntu> hischild, if you see a problem with it, you'll not be the only one.
[12:41] <elkbuntu> that's a guarantee.
[12:41] <hischild> elkbuntu, i guess that's true .. jussi01, will do that
[12:41] <elkbuntu> you might be the only one willing to say something though
[12:41] <hischild> i do tend to say quite a few things, yes .. 
[12:42] <hischild> Aight, i'll do that then. Tnx 
[12:42] <Gary> hischild: sorry for not responding, I fell asleep
[12:43] <hischild> Gary, you probably deserve it then :-) sleep tight!
[12:43] <hischild> Well since that was the only question i had, i'll be going back to my duties. See you all around
[12:44]  * hischild waves you all a happy morning, afternoon, evening or goodnight (make a choice) and the best of luck! 
[14:03]  * jussi01 pokes PriceChild and nalioth - either of you got a moment for a PM?
[15:06] <nalioth> jussi01: of course
[17:07] <PriceChild> catching up on emails at work after a weekend is nothing compared to hilights here :(
[18:02] <TwinReverb> anyone around?
[18:02] <bazhang> TwinReverb, how may we help you
[18:02] <TwinReverb> i am out trying to drum up people for my channel.  not everyone pays attention to wallops, and advertising / growing a channel is rather hard
[18:03] <TwinReverb> is there any way anyone might be able to help me out in that regard?
[18:03] <TwinReverb> or at least some advice?
[18:03] <bazhang> TwinReverb, TwinReverb please check the topic here; I'm not sure, though you might ask in #freenode about what you are attempting
[18:30] <nalioth> hmm
[18:30] <nalioth> hmmm hmmm
[18:31] <Gary> hmm's too
[18:40]  * nalioth pets his 10-minute-quiet button
[18:40] <nalioth> troll attention spans are far less than 10 minutes
[20:17]  * jussi01 pokes and prods bluesmoke - identify! ;)
[20:36] <PriceChild> bluesmoke: Can we help you?
[20:40] <bluesmoke> PriceChild: Not this again
[20:41] <PriceChild> Amaranth: thanks, hi :)
[20:41] <PriceChild> bluesmoke: why don't you group the accounts?
[20:41] <PriceChild> bluesmoke: /msg nickserv help group
[20:41] <bluesmoke> PriceChild: I don't want it to show me being on as Amaranth while I'm bluesmoke
[21:22] <A4Tech> hi
[21:23] <PriceChild> Hi A4Tech, how can I help?
[21:23] <A4Tech> yes
[21:24] <A4Tech> I urgently need to write a script on the bash and how I somehow ban on #bash
[21:24] <A4Tech> oO
[21:25] <PriceChild> A4Tech: This is the home of the ubuntu irc team.
[21:25] <PriceChild> A4Tech: /msg chanserv access #bash list
[21:25] <PriceChild> A4Tech: hopefully you can find someone there to help you with the ban
[21:25] <A4Tech> thx
