naliothSlart: you can catalyze as well as anyone elsecan :)00:00

ferret_0567Why was Firky banned from #ubuntu?00:58
Jack_Sparrow@login00:59
ubottuThe operation succeeded.00:59
Jack_Sparrow@btlogin00:59
nickrud_ferret_0567, if firky wants to know that, he should ask himself. May be no one elses business ;)00:59
ferret_0567nickrud_: well, then I guess he doesn't want to know, because he's not coming in here01:00
Jack_Sparrowferret_0567, We also need to know what his ip was/is01:00
nickrud_ferret_0567, no one bites01:00
Jack_Sparrownickrud, I seem to think it was one of mine..  A real potty mouth if I remember01:01
nickrud_ah, one of those. I hate embarrassing those guys in front of others01:01
FirkyHello01:50
FirkyCan i be  un-banned from #ubuntu please ?01:50
FlannelFirky: Do you know why you were banned?01:58
Firkyyes02:00
FirkyI have a friend here 02:00
Firkywho asked for a bukkit02:00
Firkyand they didnt like it 02:00
Firkyso they banned02:00
Firkybut i just need to ask question about sound not working with ubuntu02:01
Firky?02:01
FlannelFirky: the truth is generally easier than lying about it02:02
Firkywell, yeah OK. I acted like an idiot in there previously and now I'm wishing I hadn't as I'm having some issues i'd really like some help with, 02:05
FlannelCan I get you to read over the following two documents, and agree to try and follow them? https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines http://www.ubuntu.com/community/conduct02:07
Jack_SparrowFlannel, HE was very disruptive.. the walrus guy02:14
FlannelJack_Sparrow: I know, I was there02:14
Jack_Sparrow:)02:14
FlannelWhat on earth is going on in -ot?02:18
FlannelI *know* some of those guys have seen girls before, yet their current behavior says otherwise.02:19
Jack_SparrowFlannel, He is sending me rude pm's02:19
FlannelJack_Sparrow: Who?02:19
FirkyI have read and understood both documents. As a result you can be assure no such troubel wil occure agian02:19
Jack_SparrowFirky, 02:19
FlannelJack_Sparrow: right now?02:19
FirkyWhat???02:19
Firkyno02:19
Firkyi  do not communicate via private messaging02:20
Jack_SparrowFirky, <Firky> You are not, at present, helping the matter02:20
Jack_Sparrow<Jack_Sparrow> Neither are you .. keep it in ops..02:20
Jack_Sparrow<Firky> shut it02:20
Jack_Sparrow<Firky> im trying to get unbanned ytou moron02:20
Jack_SparrowLeave the ban in place02:20

Jack_Sparrow<Firky> im trying to get unbanned ytou moron02:22
Jack_Sparrow<Firky> you cant post PRIVATE messages02:22
Jack_Sparrow<Firky> in a PUBLIC chat room02:22
Jack_Sparrow<Firky> its illegal02:22
Jack_Sparrow<Firky>  i will have you jailed for this02:22
FlannelFirky: Again, lying about something isn't the best way to get unbanned.  He wasn't telling me anything I didn't already know about you, since we keep logs.02:22
Jack_Sparrow<Firky> its a privacy breech02:22
Jack_Sparrow<Firky> how would you feel of your PRIVATE phone conversations been posting all over the internet/02:22
Jack_Sparrow<Firky> now apologise 02:22
Jack_Sparrow<Firky> and tell everyone what you posted was a lie02:22
FlannelJack_Sparrow: You can stop, honest ;)02:22
FlannelFirky: I suggest you take a break, perhaps re-read those documents tomorrow or something; perhaps you'll have a better understanding of what they mean.02:24
FlannelWe fully acknowledge that people make mistakes, which is why I was going to believe that you recognize it as a mistake and unban you.  However your behavior today has shown me that you're not actually ready to rejoin our channel.02:26
FirkyVery well, you're terms do appear reasonable under the circumstances, 02:28
FlannelWhat an odd cookie.02:28
Jack_Sparrowagreed..02:28
Jack_SparrowSorry for the paste, but he would not stop in pm02:29
Jack_SparrowFYI, I bought yuo a penguin coffee mug02:29
FlannelYou mentioned that the other day.  I'm flattered, an looking forward to drinking out of the head of a mascot.02:29
Jack_SparrowI'll let you know when I am heading north for something02:30
Jack_Sparrowbbl02:30
FlannelOn another note, -offtopic needs someone to keep an eye on it.02:31
FlannelI'm off to upgrade from Dapper to Hardy.  Hopefully I'll be back soon enough.02:31

naliothbazhang: your ban is no longer necessary03:45
naliothit was part of a pR0n spam ring03:46
bazhangwhen myrtti goes all +m and talks about fluffy pink unicorns in -ot it is pretty funny03:46
bazhangnalioth, okay will remove03:46

stdinprobably05:24
nickrudPriceChild, are they being caught automatically now?05:24
PriceChildnickrud: However its done, we're doing our best to deal with them.05:26
nickrudPriceChild, so then I can ignore any ref's to angelina for now?05:27
PriceChildnickrud: any ref's?05:27
nickrudop calls I mean. And I can see from scrollback that you all have been struggling with these .... for a while05:27
PriceChildProbably best not to ignore op calls if you have the time.05:31
nickruddo I ban them? ban by name? ban, then unban? or, ban and let you all unban later?05:31
PriceChildI guess it can't hurt #ubuntu to ban the nick.05:31
nickruddone05:32
nickrudum, I gott research that, like I've always said I'm irc illiterate and survive by seveas's work. If someone does it by memory, please do05:35
Flannelits %Angelina24-Cam!*@*  right?05:36
nickrudhm, did it without the %05:37
PriceChild% mutes05:37
PriceChildThat isn't very helpful in this situation, seen as they join and don't say anything in the channel.05:37
PriceChildwithout the % means they can't join the channel, don't see the users joining and don't spam05:38

kingbazhang, The ban is still not lifted. I had connected from home yesterday and thought it was gone!13:49
kingLjL, Would you please lift the ban on my IP?13:49
jpdsking: L.jl is idle : 2 days 7 hours.13:55
jpdsHe might have gone on holiday somewhere..13:55
kingjpds, Forcing me to go on a holiday as well!13:57
kingCan some OP temporarily lift the IP ban from this IP, so that I can talk on Ubuntu, and then finally settle the issue with Ljl when he comes?14:02
elkbuntuat this point, i dont know what the ban is about, so until i have that information i cannot make such a judgement14:02
king I am behind a huge NAT 1000+ machines. And James a freenode staffer got this information that my IP is banned because a unregistered user called qstnn trolled the channel on ~15December.14:03
kingelkbuntu, ^14:03
elkbuntui cannot see your nat, because you are cloaked.14:04
elkbuntuhence, i cannot check the validity of this.14:04
kingelkbuntu, Should I give you my IP in a PM?14:04
kingelkbuntu, But you can surely see the Ubuntu ban list near 15th december about a IP ban on a user called qstnn and find out my IP?14:05
elkbuntuwhat is this large nat for? i really detest the thought of allowing a free-for-all for 1000+ potential trolls14:06
kingelkbuntu, educational institute.14:08
kingelkbuntu, I think I am exaggerating, lets say there are about ~700 machines.14:08
kingelkbuntu, The ban can always be re-imposed.14:08
elkbuntuelkbuntu, on the second-busiest troll day of the year?14:09
elkbuntuwhere the first is a shared tie of the two release days14:09
kingelkbuntu, My IP has been banned since real real long. Please take all the factors into consideration.14:10
elkbuntui am. your exaggeration and claiming the ip to be 'yours' makes it hard though14:11
elkbuntusounds like a convoluted version of 'my brother did it'14:12
elkbuntuyou havent even said what educational institute it is, or why you're using an educational institute's facilities at this time of the year14:12
elkbuntuand judging by the ip, at this time of night.14:14
elkbuntuseriously though, we can make exemptions, but we have to know where to report abuse to if it's such an extremely abusable system.14:18
elkbuntuking, i'm trying to help you here, but you're not responding14:21
kingelkbuntu, Sorry, I was out, trying to get a GPS fix on my Openmoko Neo.14:24
kingelkbuntu, I don't think I will have to tell you about why I am here, what place this is, and why I am here at this time of the day!14:27
elkbuntuking, and i dont have to lift that ban.14:27
kingelkbuntu, I know, if you said you were trying to help, you surely wouldn't have asked questions like what I am doing here at this time of the day!14:28
jpdselkbuntu: The ban is on the BT as "qstnn".14:30
elkbuntujpds, i know what it's under14:30
elkbuntui am trying to help, but i'm not going to give out a free pass to a large number of machines undisclosed place that i cannot contact to report abuse.14:30
kingelkbuntu, Would you not lift the ban if I don't provide you details like what is the name of this place, why I am here at this time of the day!, etc?14:34
kingelkbuntu, Why breach my piracy. Let us work this out without any further abuse to me.14:34
Nafalloprivacy?14:35
kingNafallo, <elkbuntu> you havent even said what educational institute it is, or why you're using an educational institute's facilities at this time of the year14:35
king<elkbuntu> and judging by the ip, at this time of night.14:35
Nafallohmm. oki.14:36
* Nafallo shrugs and goes back to his own channels14:36
elkbuntuking, all i want is the name of the institution so that i know who to approach if the 700-1000 computers you say i will be letting in, go crazy.14:36
elkbuntuthat does not identify you personally14:36
