[00:54] ok you guys might want to be aware of this [00:55] #ubuntu-lovers which they may be changing to ##ubuntu-lovers soon, someone advertised it a little while ago in #ubuntu [00:56] told the person not to channel advertise in there, and joined the channel to suggest they changed to ## and I say something more about channel advertising, and then get booted, so probably some kids running it or something [01:04] oh well kicked after re joining and not very nice kick messages [01:14] it's archlinux trolls, and I can pastebin stuff from the two channels if anyone wants it, but your all away right now so hmm [01:32] That's not a good thing when all the ops are away, because if people troll the channels now, things can get pretty bad, I have seen it before. [01:41] sebsebseb, ops are around, they're just not participating in a discussion with you. i'm also certain that youve been asked many times before to stop bossing people around. [01:44] bruenig, is there something i can help you with? [01:45] webpigeon: How can we help you? [01:46] [01:07] all archusers get ops [01:46] [01:07] We should advertise this and turn it into the ultimate troll channel [01:46] two snippets, could do the lot, but no one seems to care [01:46] sebsebseb, stop. [01:46] Pici, sorry, a friend asked me when help with something , and I needed to check the channel mode to answer him :) [01:47] just hanging out [01:47] bruenig, this isnt a channel to just hang out in. [01:47] oh [01:47] um [01:47] so how you guys doing [01:47] Pici, anyway, i'll be off now :) o/ [01:47] I was just trying to help, anyway I am about to leave here [01:48] sebsebseb, helping would have been reporting without having poked the beehive with the flaming stick first. [01:48] elky: well how could I of done that? [01:49] bruenig: This channel is for dealing with issues relating to the Ubuntu IRC community only, if theres nothing you have pertaining to that, we have a no idling polciy. [01:49] come in here and said the first two lines, without going into the channel and bossing them around [01:49] oh [01:49] ok so someone came into #ubuntu-lovers and was messing with us, I don't know if you guys have control over that [01:50] bruenig, there's staff and irc ops in there. they'll see the logs when they wake up [01:50] hmm [01:50] #ubuntu-lovers is unoffical isn't it? [01:50] is it? [01:50] I don't even know [01:50] sebsebseb, stop interferring [01:51] elky: I suggested they changed to ## I didn't boss them around, as the whole chat log would show [01:51] oh not you sebsebseb [01:51] you were doing alright [01:51] sebsebseb, that is precisely bossing them around and interferring. [01:52] elky: ok I see, well I didn't reolize that [01:53] sebsebseb, you've passed on information, we will handle it from here. next time come to us first. [01:53] sebsebseb: Thanks for reporting it though, just keep in mind the points that elky mentioned in the future. [01:53] I agree with Pici and elky [01:54] elky: ok [01:54] sebsebseb, bye [01:55] yep bye [01:56] bruenig, why are you here? [01:57] what? [01:58] you've come here to complain about the #ubuntu-lovers channel being a troll channel? [01:58] oh [01:58] no [01:58] so someone told me PriceChild was doing something or other [01:58] I didn't realy know what was going on [01:59] so why were you in the channel that sebsebseb reported? [01:59] I am in the ## one [02:00] it is registered and such, someone there was talking about #ubuntu-lovers, thought you guys might know [02:00] wanted to see what was going on by checking out the discussion you see [02:00] you are aware that you would need to get trademark approval to use the name of ubuntu, right? [02:01] I didn't register that channel [02:01] ok, so you have no other business here? [02:01] um [02:01] bruenig: Thankyou for making us aware of that channel. I'm unsure what you expect us to do about it. Have a good day. [02:01] would you need approval for unofficial? [02:02] I mean ## is unofficial namespace isn't it? [02:02] like ##windows [02:02] ? [02:02] bruenig: http://freenode.net/policy.shtml#channelnaming https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcTeam/ChannelNaming [02:02] bruenig, trademark is above channel naming policies. Canonical gets to choose how its trademark is used. [02:03] hmm [02:03] I am not so sure this qualifies, not like they are using logos or anything. It is clearly a community of ubuntu lovers. They don't control anyone who uses the word ubuntu. I mean what if a news story talked about ubuntu. They wouldn't be infringing. [02:04] it's not clearly, actually. it appears to be a channel of archlinux people who are going to troll ubuntu channels. [02:05] its a weird channel, not sure what is going on [02:06] well if you have no further business here, we ask that you respect our no-idling policy [02:08] hmm [02:08] you guys are secretive! [02:08] always idling in other channels logging, but not allowed here it seems [02:08] Logs of this channel, oh nevermind. [02:10] *sigh* [02:46] oh, and bilbo sobered up... [02:46] Oh, elky.....I'm sober now. Here is a nice unique way to express myself. Go FUCK your self, and keep up the good work....inbreeding does wonders for your children. Tell your sister / wife I said hi. [02:46] Hrm. The same guy who is advertizing for ##ubuntu-lovers is the fellow who had joined the bot to #ubuntu earlier [02:46] so surprising. [02:47] hmm [02:47] ##ubuntu-lovers is invite only [02:47] Its also owned by staff now. [02:47] yes, well it became obvious we were willing to invade [02:47] did it get shut down? freenode-staff seems to be the owner [02:51] why advertise and make it invite only at the same time? [02:51] heh, now it forwards to ##unavailable [02:53] <[jesus]abyrne55> elky> [02:53] <[jesus]abyrne55> elky? [02:53] [jesus]abyrne55, hi. so could you explain why you were creating an ubuntu channel? [02:53] <[jesus]abyrne55> I just wanted to learn about irc [02:53] <[jesus]abyrne55> so i thought i could learn by experience [02:54] and this is also the reason you were joining bots to our channels earlier? [02:54] !guidelines [02:54] The guidelines for using the Ubuntu channels can be found here: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines [02:54] <[jesus]abyrne55> I am not a spammer. I am new to IRC so iwas trying out what a bot was [02:55] <[jesus]abyrne55> I am very sorry [02:55] ok, since you're new, you might want to read the guidelines the bot has just listed. it'll help prevent problems in the future, ok? [02:55] [jesus]abyrne55: don't lie to us [02:55] <[jesus]abyrne55> No Problem. [02:55] <[jesus]abyrne55> I'm not. I'm new [02:55] try the other leg, [jesus]abyrne55 [02:56] do not spam on freenode [02:56] do not clone on freenode [02:56] So is the channel closed or did it just get locked down by the owner? [02:56] * Amaranth is confused at this point [02:56] <[jesus]abyrne55> It was closed [02:57] <[jesus]abyrne55> Listen. I am very scared [02:57] <[jesus]abyrne55> I don't know what I'm doing [02:57] <[jesus]abyrne55> And u probably won't see me on IRC again [02:57] <[jesus]abyrne55> Good Bye [02:57] Amaranth: ##ubuntu-lovers was inhabited by (surprisingly enough) the archlinux crew that has been trolling #ubuntu* [02:57] So part of learning what you're doing is making a channel and inviting trolls? [02:58] [jesus]abyrne55, did you not figure anything was wrong when people were discussing trolling channels? [02:58] <[jesus]abyrne55> Trolling [02:58] [01:07] We should advertise this and turn it into the ultimate troll channel [02:58] <[jesus]abyrne55> OMG [02:59] <[jesus]abyrne55> You won't see me on freenode again [02:59] <[jesus]abyrne55> I leave w/ these words. Im not a spammer, troller, or anything nefairios. The truth is. Im 15 [03:01] myself and pricey have channel logs of ##ubuntu-lovers where they are quite outside the freenode network guidelines [05:20] MenZa called the ops in #ubuntu-offtopic (f7ee_) [05:21] Grant-A called the ops in #ubuntu-offtopic () [05:23] sebsebseb called the ops in #ubuntu (doubled) [05:24] ubottu: tell doubled about guidelines [05:24] ubottu: tell doubled about coc === stew is now known as Guest15064 [08:52] can someone please have a word with "a" in #ubuntu... he seems to think that dualboot linux and windows can break the nic in windows [09:59] any way [11:44] phix: can we help you? [11:47] Guest15064: can we help you? [11:47] !idle | phix, Guest15064 [11:47] phix, Guest15064: 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. [11:50] Guest15064, is stew, he can stay. [11:51] did stew fail? :p [11:52] he did. [11:55] right, saw that afterwards :) [11:55] sorry, Guest15064 [11:55] kick him anyways [11:55] phix? [12:10] In ubottu, Threetimes said: my name is Peter [12:16] hrm, tomorrow to friday Im away on a boating trip, if I dont come back you know Ive drowned. :P [12:19] you'd damned well better make your back-ness known after that [12:23] hehe [12:50] jussi01: don't do a gary [12:50] (I disappeared for a few days and the other staff were worried, called my parents and were about to call the police) [12:52] haha [12:54] Gary: thats why Im notifying people.. [12:54] its on my facebook also [12:54] oh I told everyone too, but silly richih misunderstood [12:54] (and I got the blame) [12:56] haha [13:04] !-paste [13:04] paste is pastebin - added by Seveas on 2006-06-17 22:52:19 - last edited by stdin on 2008-09-12 08:09:12 [16:44] erm, so this u-l channel happiness is evolving, eh? [17:18] Tm_T: how's that? [17:31] nick:oscarhacksordo, #ubuntu, trolling in mock spanish. "me tarzan, you jane"-style spanish. doesn't leave. [17:31] bye [17:33] nick:Virtus, #ubuntu. spamming the same message on purpose. bye [17:34] jrib: just did read this channels backlog [17:35] Tm_T: oh [17:37] prince_jammys called the ops in #ubuntu (oscarhacksordo : troll, speaking in mock spanish.) [18:54] Evening friends, I have a question: When attempting to join #ubuntu via webchat.freenode.net I am redirected to the #ubuntu-proxy-users channel where the floodbot explains that it thinks I'm trying to be anonymous and that there are better ways of doing so. I'm not trying to be anonymous, I just cant install a client on this machine. I understand that freenode has had a lot of trouble with webchat clients such as mibbit a [18:55] As I am using freenode's webchat and not mibbit or tor or any of the others the floodbots mentioned I wondered why the need to redirect webchat.freenode.net users? I'm just curious [18:56] are webchat.freenode.net'ers just as untrustworthy as the spammer webchats? [18:59] Bodsda|away: As I understand it, and I may be wrong, the issue is that we havent iplemented a system for freenodes webchat yet. You can however, join #ubuntu using mibbit. [19:00] Bodsda|away: also, just FYI we discourage the use f away nicks === Bodsda|away is now known as Bodsda [19:04] jussi01: thanks for the info. I may be wrong, but I believe freenode has banned the use of mibbit. [19:06] Bodsda: no, freenode have restricted the use of mibbit in #freenode, not across the whole network [19:07] AFAIK [19:07] jussi01: ah, I see. Cheers for the info then. I'l leave you guys in peace :) [19:07] Bodsda: no probs. I hope I have been helpful. :) [19:07] meh [19:13] jussi01: we no longer allow mibbit to connect to the network - due to abuse [19:14] nalioth: oh? ok then... :/ [19:14] * jussi01 sighs, goes back to his hole. [19:52] Hi, just wanted to ask if users' bots are allowed in #ubuntu. (If not, alteregoa is one.) [19:56] alteregoa isn't a bot, but a mirc client with some questionable scripts / owner [20:03] FloodBot2 called the ops in #ubuntu-ops-monitor (exploit) [20:03] FloodBot3 called the ops in #ubuntu-ops-monitor (exploit) [21:50] is strawally messaging anyone else? [21:50] i think he is trying to asl me [21:51] not me [21:53] rejoin [21:53] it's what i did [21:53] thanks to irssi failing [21:53] which channel [22:01] is this a good place to reach irc council members ? [22:02] sure is [22:02] or you can mail them [22:03] ikonia: just that someone registered #ubuntu-novatos [22:03] ikonia: i think that #ubuntu* namespace is somewhat reserved [22:03] See here... niko noticed it http://paste.ubuntu.com/222204/ [22:05] erUSUL: handy enough, that will get picked up in the back log, I'm sure one of the council members/freenode staff will note it [22:05] thank you [22:06] no problem... [22:06] jussi01: Pici Pricey nalioth elky ^^ [22:06] there we go [22:06] as m4v noted in #ubuntu-irc is a new user that just joined today to ask about linux in general in #ubuntu-es [22:18] erUSUL: hi [22:18] hi [22:19] you were after me? [22:20] no; just reporting the registering of #ubuntu-novatos [22:20] jussi01: read what i said to ikonia... you can check #ubuntu-irc too if you iddle there [22:21] ahh, ok then. thank you. if you need the irc council in future, you can join #ubuntu-irc-council [22:21] Anyway, Ill let nalioth or Pricey deal with that for now, as Im headed to bed. [22:21] jussi01: ok; thanks [22:22] jussi01: good night then
