[01:26] it's stupidly regulated here and we can only buy tiny doses mixed with something else [01:26] and my boss is in canada at the moment [01:30] elky: yeah, it's not regulated terribly [01:31] woot. i shall remind my boss to aquire some before he returns. [01:31] and now i shall run off to buy foods because my fridge is empty [01:48] elky: if it's 'stupidly regulated', is he gonna be able to bring it in? [02:29] * Mez yawns [02:40] hello [02:40] I joined #ubuntu but I can't send to channel [04:38] Hi MontelEdwards, how can we help you today? [04:39] hmmm [04:40] Flannel: Ya, i tried to join a channel and was forwarded here [04:40] "a channel"? [04:40] yeaup [04:41] It is weird [04:42] Flannel: you know anything about it? [04:42] MontelEdwards: Which channel? [04:43] ##beginners-dev [04:43] MontelEdwards: Yes, I can verify that you're banned from there. [04:44] MontelEdwards: And I can also verify that you're aware of those bans. [04:44] Yeah [04:45] Flannel: But why am i being forwared here? [04:45] MontelEdwards: Because you can set up forwards as well, and apparently thats the current situation. [04:48] Flannel: so now what? [04:49] MontelEdwards: You part this channel, as you don't have any current business here, as far as I can tell, and go on your merry way. [04:50] Flannel: I have to leave? [04:51] MontelEdwards: Unless you have current business in this channel, yeah. [04:52] Scunizi called the ops in #ubuntu (killerng) [04:52] We keep this channel spectator free, so we can keep track of who needs to be helped, etc. [04:52] elky: Your cinnamon roll is showing [04:54] damn you, now i want a cinnamon roll :( [04:54] elky: They're tasty and easy to make! [04:54] Flannel, i look forward to the one you're going to make me then :P [04:54] MontelEdwards: rejoining that channel doesn't make a whole lot of sense. You're still banned. [04:54] Flannel: Sorry, i missed what you said, i meant to look at it and i pressed the refresh button on my browser [04:54] MontelEdwards: Ah [04:55] MontelEdwards: Unless you have current business in this channel, yeah. [04:55] We keep this channel spectator free, so we can keep track of who needs to be helped, etc. [04:55] elky: Come to where I live and I'll have a whole batch waiting for you. [04:55] those would be expensive cinnamon rolls :( [04:55] Flannel: oh, okay then. Later [04:55] Bye MontelEdwards [04:55] bye [04:56] elky: They would be. Although Quantas is a lovely airlines. [04:56] Flannel, why is something outside our namespace forwarding to here? [04:56] elky: beginners-dev is actually #ubuntu-beginners or whatever [04:56] as to *why* that is, I'm not sure [04:56] er, ubuntuforums-beginners, I think? [04:56] that group is full of oddness :-/ [04:57] It should really be #ubuntu-beginners... but, yeah. [04:57] I don't presume to know why, I just work here. [04:57] they were told a few differeing things when getting set up initially, it's been confusing for them [04:58] they're moving everything into the ubuntu namespace now (had a meeting about it tonight) [04:58] Good, good. [04:58] That'll be less confusing for everyone involved [04:58] * pleia2 nods [04:59] pleia2, i'd chance they asked people who had no clue, and/or this was when the forums was not associated officially [05:00] elky: yeah, something like that [05:00] Former I imagine, since it was #ubuntuforums-beginners until recently when they became... whatever the official name for it is now. [05:01] but, doesn't really matter why. It's fixed now, cue the sunshine and bunny rabbits.

Or think could be improved? [06:53] dragon_: feel free to suggest a new one :) [06:54] Flannel: amount of info is not enough i believe, as compared to the other factoids [06:55] dragon_: It links to a really thorough wiki page though. I don't think a factoid has to be long just for its own sake. But if you can find a way to improve it, by all means, we welcome improvements.

[18:04] majnoon: And you felt the need to repeat that about 5 times throughout the course of a day or two without saying anything else? [18:05] i WAS in the wrongg and agree with punishment ,elky said for 1 day ,USUALLY i'm quiet in there [18:10] majnoon: It looks like the only times you say things in the channel is when they are compeletely random. Additionally, you have been removed from the channel a few times in the past for similar issues. [18:11] this the first time i remember [18:14] majnoon: I don't see an prior bans, but I see at least two other kicks from the channel.

It was elky's ban originally, so I'd err on the side of caution if you have to. [19:46] Although we both discussed the ban as it happened. [19:47] ahhh [19:49] well majnoon I can you you've been removed from the channel multiple times for your jokes as Pici has said (just read up) and as Pici said elky actually banned you so due to your history I'd rather not remove the ban without speaking to elky first, apologies for miss-leading you on that [19:59] majnoon: I suggest you come back later when elky may be free [20:32] majnoon: it would help your request if showed you where able to follow requests/direction [20:32] !idle |majnoon [20:32] majnoon: 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.
