rwwG'day. The AnonTalk spam that #ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic get occasionally appears to be coming from 92-32-116-*.tn.glocalnet.net. Perhaps a ban on that mask would be nice?01:33
rww(specifically, the various hostnames that spam it have 147, 178, 169, 170, 159, and 168 instead of the * above)01:37

BactaHi I seem to have a ban in #ubuntu-offtopic , can someone point out why and when this happened? As far as I'm aware I was never banned15:44
bazhangBacta, yes you are banned there.15:45
BactaWhy?15:45
bazhangDamianZ, how may we help you.15:45
ubottuIn #ubuntu, blaike said: ubottu That is good, but it will always search for a monitor on start-up. As there is no monitor it will fail to load any further. Is there a way to get it not to search for a monitor. That wiki does not seem to mention how to do this, or is it the section about setting up a virtual monitor in the xorg.conf?15:50
bazhangblaike, hi15:50
blaikeHi, I replied to the ubottu and it had a link here :s I may be a little lost.15:51
bazhangblaike, ubottu is a bot ; no need to preface comment in #ubuntu with her name :)15:51
blaikeI was just trying to get some help on configuring xorg so it will boot without searching for a monitor15:51
blaikehehe sorry!15:51
bazhangblaike, please dont idle in this channel, thanks :)15:52
blaikeok, thank you.15:52
bazhangBacta, your ban in #ubuntu-offtopic stands. please don't idle here.15:53
Bactabazhang: My ban was removed over a week ago15:54
BactaPlease tell me what I did to reinstate it15:54
BactaI have logs too15:54
bazhangBacta, that was a network glitch that has been corrected. the ban is back in place now.15:55
BactaI talked to elky about this15:55
jussi01Bacta: I suggest you come back in the morning, when elky is likely to be around.16:00
Bactajussi01 I'm sure you can understand my frustration here16:00
jussi01Bacta: please come back in about 10 hours. thanks.16:01
bazhangDamianZ, you have been forwarded here, from #ubuntu , regarding your part message16:01
BactaWill do jussi01, would like to get this obvious mistake cleared up16:02
bazhangDamianZ, 'consistently long part message' by ikonia who suggests you change it16:02
Priceybazhang: Sorry, he's been banned for a long part message?16:04
Priceyikonia: ?16:05
bazhangPricey, that is what the btracker says16:05
bazhang"Pppppppppppppoooooooooffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff!!!!!!!!!!!!16:06
Priceyso i see16:06
bazhangah ok16:06
PriceyDamianZ: You can rejoin #ubuntu16:06
Priceyikonia: I don't think that was warranted.16:07
bazhangjussi01, I think Bacta may be mistaken about his ban being removed in #ubuntu-offtopic16:07
jussi01bazhang: relax, its being sorted :)16:08
bazhangjussi01, okay :)16:08

ubottuIn #ubuntu, MTecknology said: !runasroot is <reply>Never {ever} run as root. It's not safe. For starters, you can accidentally wipe your system clean. You could accidentally delete major files. Worse, you could allow a a flaw in an application to delete your system (most security flaws can allow the attacker to run as the current user only).17:44

Flannel!away > digilink-work22:04
FlannelAh, seems that ice.net guy is banevading22:08
ubottuGPL called the ops in #ubuntu ()22:09
ikoniaFlannel: that looks like that magnus guy again22:11
jussi01Flannel: what was the ban for?22:11
Flanneljussi01: That was smurrdidoo, who is also Blarghs, who was banned earlier by ikonia, and is evading.22:12
Flanneldialup, three different IPs so far22:12
jussi01Flannel: haa, so had nothing to do withmy remove. ok. :)22:12
FlannelNope22:12
ikoniaFlannel: he's a serial issue22:12
ikoniaFlannel: well known to freenode22:12
FlannelWhat about a ban on ip-*-149-91.dialup.ice.net?22:13
ikoniahe's a nut job who thinks because he's got an open source project he can do what he wants on freenode, I've seen him a few times as different nick. he seems to cause an issue but gets klined quickly due to being so well known22:14
FlannelAll (four now) seem to match that22:14
FlannelAh, *that* guy22:15
ikonianot seen him for ages, he came back last night22:15
Seeker`if you use a generic-ip ban, remember to remove the individual ip ones22:15
ikoniaI'll return to watching a film then22:17
ubottuStormx2 called the ops in #ubuntu (max_morrison rickrolled the channel.)23:44
