[03:03] i'm sick and tired of dealing with trolls, reporting them to #freenode, and getting a prick like Lorez treating me like a fucker. [03:03] Seveas was right [03:04] this network sucks [03:04] i don't want to be associated with it anymore [03:35] FloodBot2 called the ops in #ubuntu-ops-monitor (exploit) [03:35] FloodBot3 called the ops in #ubuntu-ops-monitor (exploit) [03:35] FloodBot1 called the ops in #ubuntu-ops-monitor (exploit) [03:38] besides, now it's 4am and i cannot even sleep. that's certainly my own problem with taking the internet too seriously, but still that doesn't dismiss the behavior that caused it [03:38] i should be saying this somewhere else as #ubuntu-ops isn't really the right place, but then neither is #freenode, so. [03:39] you will find me in #gentoo-ops. you will find me in #fedora-ops. i think if you ask, they'll tell you i've been helpful and friendly - at least i hope so [03:39] you also know i pushed #ubuntu-irc for various ubuntu channels to communicate better, and i'd say it's working, as it's being actively used by several loco channels [03:39] i've tried to work in integration [03:40] and the result is that all this work is made worthless by some i'm-holier-than-though member of freenode staff who just won't k-line an obvious multi-channel spammer [03:40] perhaps christel should, instead of sending out a call for new staff members, review some of her previous staff [03:41] rather than make half of the ubuntu irc people staff themselves so there's no one left to complain [03:41] seveas was right, this network is rotten [03:41] what makes it rotten is people like lorez, but also a general attitude of "once you're staff, you're another person" [03:41] everyone could see this happening with pricechild for instance [03:42] i don't know what kind of brainwashing you do to staff, christel - but it's effective, BUT it's not effective in the sense that it makes the network better [03:43] #freenode is full of non-staff idiots who're ready to tell you that "this is channel policy not a network problem", "just /ignore him", "what do we care" [03:43] nothing is ever said about them [03:44] on the other hand, i can be sure that a good 30% of the times i report a spammer or something, i get lorez treating me rudely [04:24] lstarnes called the ops in #ubuntu (ktdcjkhytrfd) [04:26] @login [04:26] The operation succeeded.

[08:00] Ads for caskets. [08:00] hehe [08:00] Not quite the same. Similar in theory though. [08:12] Meh. Spammers. [08:13] Theres no real recourse for onjoin spam, is there. [08:15] I imagine staff can do something about it? [08:16] Actually, I take that back. Probably cant. [08:23] spammer = A_Girl_Named_Tra [08:23] told to drop the spammer names in here? [08:24] geekphreek: Yep. We'll look into it. Thanks. [08:24] ok, be prepared for a list because they happen every 2 to 3 minutes =\ [08:26] Amaranth: Anything you can think of that we can do about it? [08:26] /cs lart? [08:27] Amaranth: Said spammer has the same IP. Unfortunately, the person getting the list isn't the same person. [08:27] They log on, spam, log back off, come back with a new nick, etc. [08:28] eh? [08:28] If they always have the same IP this seems easy [08:28] If we can get a K-train, sure. [08:28] But they never join the channel. [08:28] Oh, they spam in PM [08:28] Aye [08:28] Give up then [08:28] freenode doesn't kline such people [08:28] Amaranth: Its apparently happening every few minutes. [08:29] (see rant earlier) [08:29] Amaranth: Aye, I did. [08:29] But, that's not a good answer. [08:29] Most you can do is ignore PMs from that IP [08:29] Well, they're not hitting me. [08:29] get-off-freenode-spec? [08:29] * Amaranth wonders if that is still on the wiki [08:29] It should be, yeah. [08:30] Flannel: klined, thanks for heads-up [08:30] I've had my nick registered on oftc for a while now, just in case ;) [08:30] christel, you rock, as usual :) [08:30] I should do that, dunno if I have already [08:30] At least half our users would transfer over automatically with irc.ubuntu.com... [08:31] It'd still be nice not to have to. Itd be a rather disruptive move. [08:31] elky_: hardly! thats why we're here -- but thank you for the kind words! <3 [08:32] Amaranth, oh please, oftc is useless for spam and harrassment. [08:33] elky_: I wasn't specifically talking about that one [08:33] Amaranth: really, they'd just come whereever we are though. [08:33] gmoin [08:33] elky_: We seem to have enough ops to always have someone around, for example [08:33] * popey huggles Myrtti [08:33] make them all staff on a canonical hosted server [08:33] well, maybe not all [08:33] Amaranth: That's likely more trouble than its worth. [08:34] it'd mean the IRC server dies on release day [08:34] Haha [08:34] that would be a good thing, me thinks [08:34] :) [08:35] Amaranth, freenode and ubuntu have a good system going now. lets not meddle with a working system [08:35] elky_: My view of the system is: if I can't handle it by banning people I give up [08:36] Because the few times I've tried going to staff nothing happened [08:36] the perceived problem earlier i believe stemmed mostly from unhelpful helpers buffering and misleading staff, not from staff themselves [08:36] Hell, I don't think I've ever had staff actually help me with _anything_ [08:36] Amaranth, i have staff help me almost daily [08:36] I'm pretty sure the compiz project registration is still pending, for example [08:36] going on 2 years now [08:36] * Flannel hardly interacts with staff, obviously is ill-suited for this discussion. [08:37] I could make up opinions of them if you want though! [08:37] we still don't have #compiz, luckily when the whole compiz fusion thing happened the owner of the channel was able to be contacted and setup a forward to #compiz-fusion [08:38] geekphreek: We think the spamming issue is solved. If there's nothing else we can help you with, please don't idle here. Feel free to come back if it resumes. Thanks. [08:38] ok, thanks [09:18] ubottu seems very very slow today, if he responds at all. Not sure if it was known yet, just thought it should be reported. [09:18] Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [09:18] it's been slow for days [09:18] anything else? [09:19] it has? haven't noticed it until now. Nah, that's just about it. Tnx === _Dave2_ is now known as Dave2 [10:28] * popey sighs at yet more pm's from bolt_ [10:28] In ubottu, Kimi said: where is the root user of ubuntu ?? in my linux book, its said that one who # is the root. but though i have $ i can install things, use cds, pendrives. why ?? plz dont tell sudo. i know what sudo is. i want to knw how to ope the root ? [10:28] popey: I'll speak to him about it - he's been warned [10:28] kimi is a moron - he knows it's a bot [10:29] christel, are you still around? [10:30] i am [10:30] what can i do you for? :) [10:34] christel, a private conversation, if i may? [10:35] ikonia, he knows it's a bot, yes. i suspect he thinks that it'll make us give him the answers out of pity [10:35] elky: certainly ) [10:35] I bet it's a conversation about shoes [10:36] ikonia, or calendars ;) [10:36] * ikonia backs off [10:36] tehehe [10:37] @mark #ubuntu bolt_ pm'ing people after multiple warnings not to - forwarded to -ops [10:37] The operation succeeded. [10:52] ugh, again? [12:26] wowzor. bolt_ just never learns [12:27] he's gone, so it's not a problem any more [12:43] any good place to chat when drunk? talk to funny people and all. [12:51] bazhang, send em to #defocus. it's there for a reason [12:58] elky, at that point he was already directed to #ubuntu-offtopic . you are welcome to direct him there. [13:01] 12:38 -!- Irssi: |ns|nR8 [n=vv@CPE-58-167-43-118.vic.bigpond.net.au] [top secret] has joined to IRC [13:02] confirmed panarchy [13:08] how is that confirmed panarchy? [13:08] busted him [13:08] in a pm [13:08] nicely done [13:08] he logged out [13:09] he must be leeching wifi hotspots then [13:09] yes, it's a different ISP than normal [13:10] thefeds has taken to using microsoft nicks from his 3g connection [13:10] what was his recent one [13:11] an ip, not a hostmask [13:11] I meant his nicks [13:11] microsoft_xp_pro or something equally idiotic [13:11] oh, is that him [13:11] almost certain. [13:12] he hit about 10 channels last night, he was the one ljl blew up over [13:12] mentioning 'thefeds' has the connection killing powahs [13:13] yep its him [13:13] thefeds and nicotine withdrawal [13:13] the ip resolved to Hutchison Telecommunications which is 3mobile here in aus [13:14] saying 'oh hello thefeds' was not what he expected [13:14] delightful [13:14] i think i was supposed to kick a stink about the nick [13:14] so eeepc-ot is their new staging ground? [13:15] yup [13:15] thats the current troll pit of choice [13:15] yuck [13:16] 'their'? [13:17] please tell me panarchy and thefeds are not in cohorts... [13:17] i will have to cry. [13:17] doubtful [13:17] panarchy is too dumb [13:17] dont forget dont_tase_me_bro (balzac) [13:17] and even other trolls can't be bothered with him [13:54] nadan is ringing bells, but i cant place them [14:14] marcel is getting annoying now [14:15] I think if it continues the conversation should move here or to pm. [14:15] I've just tried to "end" it [14:16] I saw some talk earlier of refreshing the access lists; was that just hypothetical [14:16] bazhang: for? [14:16] access list for #ubuntu channels Pici [14:16] I didn't see any talk on that ? [14:17] bazhang: I'm not sure what you mean by refreshing them.. [14:17] are they out od date ? [14:17] of [14:17] uhh, giving more access to those who have to run here everytime there is a meltdown in certain channels? [14:17] the ongoing month upon month one? [14:18] I'm lost [14:18] sure, you have access in them all. [14:19] ?? I've got access in 3 channels [14:19] (or 3 that I know of) [14:19] never mind then. [14:19] sorry, I'm lost [14:19] bazhang is referring to the fact that some operators dont have access to -offtopic for example. [14:20] I think we have too many unactive ops in the access lists [14:20] ahh [14:20] and #kubuntu [14:20] bazhang: sorry - missed totally what you where saying [14:24] o/ [14:24] * elky hugs LjL [14:25] :0 [14:25] LjL, if you feel like talking, could i perhaps have a quick word?
