[03:16] <mama21mama> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcTeam/Cloaks

[03:17] <mama21mama> yes
[03:18] <mama21mama> nhandler, https://launchpad.net/~mama21mama2000
[03:18] <nalioth> ubottu: tell mama21mama about member
[03:19] <nhandler> mama21mama: Ubuntu cloaks are only for Ubuntu Members (see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Membership)
[03:19] <mama21mama> to see
[03:19] <nhandler> mama21mama: You can request an unaffiliated cloak in the meantime if you desire (http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#cloaks)
[12:27] <juliux> jussi01: btw it is possible to get #ubucon under the controll of the irc council?
[12:30] <elky> juliux, we tried once before, we can try again though.
[12:31] <jussi01> ummm, it is under our control?
[12:32] <juliux> elky: we have the problem with the channel every year;)
[12:32] <elky> jussi01, not afaik
[12:33] <jussi01> juliux: check the access list
[12:33] <juliux> jussi01: ah cool
[12:34] <juliux> it is possible to set a topic in there? perhaps with a link to #ubucon-de and www.ubucon.de?
[12:34] <juliux> and to http://fridge.ubuntu.com/node/1898
[14:58] <ALAYA> hi, I'm a ubuntu member (https://launchpad.net/~zied.alaya) and I wanna to have a Ubuntu cloak.
[14:59] <ALAYA> I followed  these steps: http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#nicksetup
[14:59] <ALAYA> should I do some thing else ?
[15:01] <niko> elky: ^
[15:03] <elky> jussi01, nalioth, Pricey, please cloak ALAYA.
[15:03] <niko> one second :)
[15:03] <ALAYA> hi elky :) , how are you ?
[15:04] <elky> incredibly tired. yourself?
[15:04] <ALAYA> thx niko :)
[15:05] <niko> ALAYA: you are now cloaked
[15:05] <ALAYA> thank you very much niko
[15:06] <niko> you're welcome
[22:38] <blizzkid> lo all, anyone here that is on planet.ubuntu and would like to do me a big favor please?
[22:38] <Pricey> blizzkid: What's up?
[22:39] <blizzkid> Pricey: I would like someone that's on planet to spread my latest blogpost http://martijn.sudo-s.net/content/i-oppose-windows7sins since I don't have access to planet
[22:40] <blizzkid> and I believe this is very good for the community
[22:40] <Pricey> !member | blizzkid
[22:41] <blizzkid> Pricey: I know about becoming a member, but that's not the question
[22:41] <Pricey> blizzkid: Ubuntu Members can post to the planet. I'm not sure I like the idea of you badgering existing members pushing your own views.
[22:41] <blizzkid> If someone can spread the message on planet that'll suffice
[22:41] <blizzkid> I'm pretty sure many share my view
[22:41] <nalioth> blizzkid: if it's something of importance, i'm sure someone will blog about it
[22:41] <blizzkid> The FSF is completely wrong with this campaign
[22:42] <Pricey> blizzkid: You have your blog and are spreading your message, if someone likes it, I'm sure they'll spread it too.
[22:42] <nalioth> no need to spam folks to push it for you
[22:42] <blizzkid> nalioth: don't pick on me for trying to get a bit of attention for a _positive_ campaign
[22:42] <ikonia> for what it's worth I don't like the campaign either but spamming it makes it look worthless
[22:43] <ikonia> blizzkid: you're doing more harm than good, you make it look like spam, people have brains and can work it out
[22:43] <Pricey> blizzkid: I'd find it pretty positive if I received £5 from each user here tbh.
[22:43] <nalioth> blizzkid: nobody is 'picking on you'.  we're just stating facts
[22:44] <ikonia> Pricey: I'll post mine to you if that's acceptable
[22:44] <nalioth> post your what, ikonia ?
[22:45] <ikonia> £5
[22:45] <blizzkid> nalioth: I understand your concern, but I've been a community member since 2004, and the FSF's campaign is an utter fail. We should make clear we're a positive community, so if anyone would like to spread the message (I dont't even need credit for it!!) that would be great
[22:45] <nalioth> 0_0
[22:46] <blizzkid> I'm not an Ubuntu member, and won't be one because I don't have high karma in launchpad
[22:46] <ikonia> blizzkid: you're making your positive message look like a bad message, people have brains, rise above it
[22:46] <ikonia> blizzkid: my karma is low, I'm a member
[22:46] <nalioth> blizzkid: noted. and as you've been told - your current methodology of "getting noticed" (at least on irc) isn't helping
[22:46]  * nalioth has no karma  :(
[22:48] <nalioth> blizzkid: you can post it to digg or /. or any other of those types of places.  you can twit it, facespace it, etc
[22:49] <blizzkid> nalioth: I appreciate the suggestions, but imho that would be worse than asking here in terms of "spamming" (digg and /.)
[22:49] <ikonia> blizzkid: no it wouldn't
[22:50] <ikonia> that is what those services are for - irc is not for your advertisment
[22:51] <blizzkid> ikonia: I wasn't trying to advertise here, I was asking if someone would do me a favor, that's a world of difference imho
[22:51] <nalioth> no, actually those places are very democratic.  if the posted subject is "of importance", it'll get modded up / spread by more folks
[22:52] <ikonia> well - this topic's been done to death, bottom line is from an ubuntu point of view, stop spamming it in channels, from your message point of view, you may want to consider how you present your information
[22:57] <blizzkid> k thx
[22:57] <blizzkid> and sorry
