Seeker`vertix: Jack still isn't around yet; please come back later02:25
LjL[03:43:30] <Stepan1> smerz: okay, i used the paper clip, it was still spinning02:44
LjLfor a moment there i thought he was talking about a fan, and had been given very bad advice about it =)02:44
LjLby the way vertix, i suspect your complaints are very very unlikely to be taken seriously if you persist in disregarding instructions from operators, such as the one not to idle in this channel02:45
LjLa look at ZcHxWm please02:52
Seeker`sorry, was distracted02:57
Seeker`!idle | vertix 02:57
ubottuvertix: Please keep in mind that this channel is for operator/abuse questions only; we ask you to part when you have no further business here in order to keep track of users with pending inquiries.02:57

bazhangmikem is really violent today04:23
elkybazhang, that's what happens when he's allowed to walk the political line04:23

bazhang'lunitic Richard Stallman' etc04:24
elkyugh. nope.04:24
Seeker`is "mindrape" a suitable nickanme?04:32
naliothis s/he acting a fool, Seeker` ?04:33
Seeker`seems to be vaguely sensible04:34
naliothactions speak louder than words04:35
elkyso let me get this right... we disallow 'fuck' but 'rape' is fine? wth?04:37
Seeker`as long as they aren't acting a fool, it would seem so04:39
elkyyou have got to be kidding me.04:40
Seeker`i was asking as they have been in #u for so long, I would have thought that someone would have notice dby not04:42
Seeker`*now04:42
elkythat's like saying 'sex isnt ok, but a crime involving forcing sex onto someone is'04:42
bazhangban removed due to full banlist04:43
tritiumSeeker`: I've noticed that nick before, and never liked it one bit.04:43
bazhangthere were issues with asking him to change it earlier, last year iirc04:44
bazhanghe ended up being banned.04:44
elkysomeone care to take it to him in PM please. iirc i was the one who brought it up last year04:47
Seeker`I'll do it, if noone else has already04:47
elkyplease04:47
elkyiirc he'll act like a total asshat04:49
Seeker`-06:48:17- Seeker`: Would it be possible for you to change your nickname please? It isn't really suitable for #ubuntu04:49
Seeker`-06:49:29- mindrape: no.  ban me if you want.  pretty pathetic though.04:49
elkyban him then.04:50
bazhangsame as last year 04:50
elkySeeker`, put the ban on *rape*!*@*04:51

ikoniadone this a few times now11:00
ikoniahe's been removed / muted in a few other channels over the night from what I can see11:02
ikoniahe's making the same troll situation in ##security and #ubuntu-kernel, but changing the factors to fit in with the channel 11:02
Garyorly11:02
ikoniayes11:02
ikoniahe's been laughed out of ##security for just making stuff up, which is what he was doing in #ubuntu when jack kicked him11:03
ikoniaI'm starting to see more of what jack saw 11:03
elkyikonia, i didnt ban useruseruser before... did someone else?11:05
elkynot that i've seen any valid contribution from them ever... just sayin'11:07

Jinxed553Hi, I was hoping to talk to an op about my ip being banned at home15:15
LjLdo you know why you were banned Jinxed553?15:17
Jinxed553Hi, I was hoping to talk to an op about my ip being banned15:19
LjLdo you know why you were banned Jinxed553?15:20
Jinxed553LjL: yes, I do, but and it was my fault, 15:20
Jinxed553but it was a sarcastic statement that i never was able to finish15:20
Jinxed553I had been in ubuntu for hours working on computer problems15:20
Jinxed553and there was someone there that was obviously just trolling15:21
Jinxed553asking questions such as will linux do this... blah blah15:21
Jinxed553windows is better i heard15:21
Jinxed553linux is slow15:21
Jinxed553etc15:21
Jinxed553anyway I was very frustrated with my own computer problems, and that this person was wasting resources15:21
LjLanswering trolling with trolling is usually not a good idea15:22
Jinxed553and i said something to the effect of Does linux cause you to become impotent?15:22
Jinxed553and before i could say asking questions to that effect does nothing15:22
Jinxed553i got banned15:22
Jinxed553it was my mistake15:22
LjLi see15:22
Jinxed553a combination of frustration and poor decision making15:22
LjLthe operator who banned you is not around at the moment, you will have to wait a little15:23
LjLmeanwhile, i'd advise you to check out the channel guidelines15:23
LjL!etiquette > Jinxed553    (Jinxed553, see the private message from ubottu)15:23
Jinxed553that's fine... i will wait.15:23
Jinxed553Thanks for the help (again)15:23
Jinxed553you helped me many times in the past15:23
Jinxed553with dual screens15:23
Jinxed553but that was year(s) ago15:24
LjLJinxed553: you're welcome. also, next time you see someone trolling, i suggest you give the operators here a ping, or if the trolling is very serious and doesn't stop after a warning, use the ! ops trigger15:24
Jinxed553alright15:25
Jinxed553LjL do you by chance know where i could find information about restricted video card drivers being enabled preventing me from logging onto my ubuntu partition (if you don't have time to help me I understand you have done quite alot already)15:26
LjLJinxed553, i'm not familiar with the way recent versions of Ubuntu handle display, since that's changed a lot and i still use 8.04, and this is not the right channel for support, either, but i suggest you check /msg ubottu binarydrivers and/or /msg ubottu fixres15:28

Jinxed553alright, I'm sorry for my conduct, I know it is not appropriate for the IRC room16:25
ikoniathats great, give me two second please. 16:25
Jinxed553sure16:25
ikoniaok, so I've removed the ban from #ubuntu, so you can join now, however please remember your promise to keep it under control in future, and if you have any problem, please ask anyone in here, or use the !ops call for emergencies16:26

vertixikonia, I told you I have nothing to discuss with Jack_Sparrow20:41
ikoniano problem then please leave20:41
vertixhow many time do we have to beat this thing?20:41
ikoniawe don't, please leave20:41
vertixsecondly, why are you following me around?20:42
ikoniaI'm not, 20:42
vertixyes you do20:42
MyrttiI thought you wanted to join #ubuntu, vertix?20:42
ikoniawhat ever you think,20:42
vertixyou are an all the channels I am in20:42
ikoniano I'm not20:42
vertixyes you are, like in case of #security20:42
vertixin case of #linux-kernel20:42
ikoniathere are other channels you are in - that I'm not in 20:42
Myrttivertix: since when has it become forbidden for #ubuntu operators to be on other channels than #ubuntu?20:43
FlannelMyrtti: We have to stay inside our caves, didn't you know that?20:43
vertixit is not a matter of any op to be on any chan20:43
ikoniavertix: if you have nothing to discusss - leave the channel and we'll never mention this again 20:43
ikonia%100 leave it ther20:43
ikoniathere20:43
vertixit is a matter of specifically following me, simple as that20:43
MyrttiFlannel: oh noes. That means I have to leave #maemo and #terminator and and and20:43
jussi01hehe, ikonia is in a lot of channels, and I suspect +i is affecting your judgement20:43
vertixanother thing: why is this channel not allowed to be visited?20:43
vertixare you doctoring logs?20:44
vertixhow do I know the logs are full?20:44
ikoniavertix: go away - I'll be straight, just go away, it's obvious your intention is not to resolve any issue, so lets just stop now20:44
vertixwhat is this harassment?20:44
Myrttiif you want to join #ubuntu, you need to talk to us (incl. Jack_Sparrow). If you don't want to join the channel, you're free to leave20:44
vertixikonia, this is not how you suppose to behave yourself, according to "code of conduct"20:45
vertixthis is simply ugly20:45
Flannelvertix: We keep this channel free of spectators so that people who have business here can conduct it.20:45
vertixthere is hardly anything happening here usually20:45
ikoniait doesn't matter - you're not allowed to idle, your ranting is pointless, so just leave20:45
vertixwhy people can not see how their representatives behave between themselves20:45
ikoniavertix: this is not up for discussion - 20:46
Myrttiho-hum.20:46
ikoniathat, I'm sorry to say was my fault, %100, I pm'ed him to tell him jack was online to see if he geuinly wanted to resolve it20:46
FlannelMyrtti: On the bright side... You've got a vastly smaller number of channels to pay attention to!20:47
Myrttinot your fault at all, ikonia 20:47
ikoniahe came in and started his ranting again, based on his other channel actions also, I can only suggest this is a %100 troll attempt20:47
FlannelOf course it is.20:47

ikonia"do you know who I am, I ported redhat to many platforms"21:37
ikonia"what's a disk label" ?21:37
Myrttidaddy daddy can I kick him?21:37

Give me resilience to teach them the basics of Linux, Ubuntu, Community Guidelines and IRC. Allow me not to stray to nitpicking, argument, foul language, or leisurely op abuse. Deliver me my daily xkcd, User Friendly, LWN, /. and Planet Ubuntu, and guard over my encrypted drives. Let it be so.22:14
