elkymalt, let me talk it over with the others. we're all in different timezones so this may take a day or so. after this long, one more day won't really make any difference.02:55
elkythere's no need for you wait/spectate here, please come back in 24hrs.03:02
Amaranthman that email brings up bad memories04:35
vorianthat was before I was born!04:37
Jordan_UIt's possible that HURD in #ubuntu purposely made two user's machines unbootable05:42
Jordan_UHe told them to run: echo "910_GL_STACK=1" > vmlinuz-2.6.31-14-generic && echo "910_GL_STACK=1" > vmlinuz-2.6.28-16-generic in a root shell05:43
Jordan_UI can almost see how someone who was really confused might think that would add those as kernel parameters rather than overwriting the users kernel images but it's likely it was malicious05:45
AmaranthJordan_U: considering that isn't actually a valid parameter I'd say it's likely05:50
AmaranthJordan_U: and he specifically told them to wipe out both kernels05:50
Amaranthalthough we have the failsafe stuff now vmlinuz.old or so so after failing to boot it would use those next time05:50
wgrantNot automatically.05:51
Jordan_UThough we could do it automatically with grub2 and recordfail05:52
Amaranthforwarded him here to explain himself05:52
AmaranthJordan_U, wgrant: I thought we already did grub2 and recordfail to use these05:53
Jordan_UAmaranth, Right now recordfail just keeps the menu from being hidden / timing out05:53
rob86hello ive been banned, i dont know why05:57
AmaranthJordan_U: rob86 = selinux = hurd05:57
rob86agreed05:57
Amaranthrob86: You've been giving people seemingly obviously incorrect instructions that kill their systems05:58
rob86theyve been saying that i do this with pms05:58
rob86and if you check the logs ive been helpful throught the channel05:58
rob86so i guess the fastest way would be to ask freenode for logs05:59
Amaranthrob86: I've been looking at the logs I have, I have to admit nothing jumps out at me other than the accusations06:03
Amaranthbut my logs don't go very far back either06:03
ubottuh00k called the ops in #ubuntu (LoCoBoi187)06:03
rob86well, freenode _i think_ can provide logs for pms... im not sure though... otherwise i dont know what to tell you other than i didnt pm these people06:04
Amaranth@login06:04
ubottuThe operation succeeded.06:04
rob86and theyre saying weird stuff like echo > (pipe) vmlinuz06:04
Amaranthrob86: They don't seem to be saying they did it in a PM06:04
rob86they pmed me06:04
Amaranthbut I find it hard to believe two different people would have something against you and plan together to get you in trouble06:04
rob86at least one did, the one with the name starting with a k06:04
rob86maybe their ips match?06:05
Jordan_UI don't see anything in the logs for #ubuntu06:05
Amaranthif the ban tracker would ever load...06:05
Jordan_Uhttp://irclogs.ubuntu.com/2009/11/01/%23ubuntu.txt and http://irclogs.ubuntu.com/2009/11/02/%23ubuntu.txt06:06
Amaranthhmm06:06
Amaranthrob86: why do you keep changing nicks?06:07
Amaranthrob86: and why did you start telling people to get hurd support elsewhere when they started talking about you when you knew that was a nick you used06:07
rob86because they had pm me before hand06:08
rob86pardon06:08
rob86k person did06:08
rob86are something did not06:08
rob86i wasnt taking it seriuosly... until the whole channel started believing them06:09
rob86i keep changing nicks because i dont like giving away my privacy, same reason my proxy resolves to venezuela06:09
rob862 days ago i was banned06:09
AmaranthI'm going back a couple days in the logs checking all the nicks I've seen you as06:09
rob86as derek_smart06:09
rob86i was trolling06:09
Amaranth*facepalm*06:09
rob86mayhaps they got upset06:10
rob86but since ive been unbanned06:10
rob86i havent trolled06:10
AmaranthOk, that's reason enough for me to believe them...06:10
rob86be that as it may...06:10
AmaranthAt this point I have no way of knowing if you told them to do this or not considering you may have been using several different nicks06:11
ubottuFloodBot2 called the ops in #ubuntu-ops-monitor (exploit)06:11

ubottuFloodBot3 called the ops in #ubuntu-ops-monitor (exploit)06:11
rob86sigh06:11
rob86proxies doesnt warrant a ban but youre the admin06:11
rob86at this point im really not looking good06:12
rob86so yea06:12
AmaranthWe've had issues with you in the past and we've got two people saying the same thing, you have to know how this looks06:12
rob86yes but i also (for what its worth) been contributing to the channel today06:12
rob86i realize you dont want to read it, i wouldnt either06:12
AmaranthI've just read it06:13
Amaranthyesterday you apparently said about 4 lines06:13
rob86today ive been in the channel for like the past 2 hours or so06:13
Amaranthtoday perhaps the log bot just hasn't updated to the part where you are helping or you were using yet another nick06:13
Amaranth <hurd> OzFalcon: ubuntu is not pitched towards users with older hardware06:14
AmaranthYou have been saying things that aren't true though06:14
rob86ive been using sls_pwnes sls_or_bust selinux, among others06:14
mneptokrob86: i see you in my logs as derek_smart both compliaing about people udersizing swap and making too much swap. within hours. and it all looks trollish and deliberately designed to cause dissention.06:14
Amaranthbtw the two people complaining are not the same unless they are using proxies and know two languages06:14
rob86mneptok: i already had that convo with another op, he or she decided that it was disruptive, but my sources confirm that swap needs to be big enough for proper hibernation06:15
Amaranthrob86: That was me, btw06:15
rob86Amaranth: that 'older hw' quote is taken out of context, he was trying to set it up in an ancient computer that truly had no business running gnome and the like06:15
mneptokrob86: so then why was your last discussion about swap size along the lines of "Ubuntu is not Windows, stop telling people to waste disk space. it's against the CoC." ?06:16
rob86mneptok: that was genuine trolling, i was contradicting myself to cause uproar06:16
rob86mneptok: i realized that it didnt matter if what i said helped or not because of their previous ideas about swap and how it works06:16
mneptokrob86: and that's a pretty good reason to be banned.06:16
rob86mneptok: never the less ive ammended myself since then06:17
mneptokthis was 2 days ago.06:17
rob86mneptok: true, but i thought that thats a separate incident. i guess one problem is enough to make me look suspicious06:17
Amaranthfool me once...06:17
rob86mneptok: well im not presenting this as if ive completely rediscovered myself, its more like im taking it seriously now06:18
mneptokyou admit to trolling. you admit to deliberately trying to cause dissention. now 2 people are claiming you're giving them bad advice.06:18
rob86mneptok: yes, i admit to trolling. i wont admit to something i didnt do06:18
mneptokyou haven't set yourself up to be seen as the innocent party here.06:18
rob86mneptok: agreed, all i can say is what i did and why, im not trying to make anyone feel sorry or anything06:19
rob86mneptok: the fact is that i didnt pm them with echo this and that06:19
rob86and if you06:19
rob86see what the k person was saying06:19
rob86she or he knew the syntax06:19
rob86>> appends > substitutes06:19
rob86they were discussing in the channel "maybe he meant to help you by appending it?"06:20
rob86and she responded, no, he gave only one '>'06:20
rob86seems to me that a person that knows the syntax wouldnt do it06:20
rob86so thats not consistent with what shes saying06:20
Amaranthmaybe they're both you trying to stir things up again06:21
mneptokknwoing some syntax but being willing to believe someone else knows it better, and hence following their advice, is not outside the realm of possibility. and given past behavior, i personally am more likely to err on the side of caution as far as your behavior is concerned.06:22
Amaranththat's the only conspiracy theory that sounds believable to me06:22
ubottuFloodBot3 called the ops in #ubuntu-ops-monitor (exploit)06:22
Amaranthperhaps they know > vs >> but didn't know what vmlinuz was06:22
rob86i think that the fairest thing would be to go by hard facts and the only thing closer to that is the log, but thats just my opinion06:22
rob86Amaranth: considering that bash syntax is comparably obscure, i highly doubt it06:23
AmaranthThe log is two (as far as I can tell) completely different people saying you gave them a command that screwed up their computer06:23
rob86mneptok: thats a reasonable response and i have nothing to say to that, tbh, im aware i dont look good06:23
rob86mneptok: but theres not log backing up their claims06:23
rob86Amaranth: sure but those are claims06:23
Amaranthrob86: I knew > vs >> for years before I knew exactly what vmlinuz was06:24
rob86Amaranth: corner case :)06:24
Amaranthrob86: Your word against theirs, basically06:24
AmaranthTheir word is more believable because there are two of them and you've got a history06:24
rob86true.06:24
AmaranthI think I'm going to have to discuss this with other ops06:24
AmaranthI think the ban should stay but perhaps they can convince me otherwise as I'm not really sure what to do06:25
mneptokrob86: karma is a bitch.06:25
rob86yep sure is :)06:25
jussi01rob86: Im going to ask you to come back in 24H or so, we can think about this and make a decision, ok?06:44
rob86alright06:44
jussi01Jordan_U: anything else you need?06:44
Jordan_Ujussi01, On a totally unrelated note it would be nice if someone could add the !grub15 factoid I suggested06:45
jussi01LjL-Temp: youve been around for a few days, was there something you were after or just forgot you were here?06:45
jussi01Jordan_U: I saw that yesterday, not particularly enthralled by adding a factoid for that specific problem. feel free to convince me otherwise tho06:46
jussi01crap06:46
jussi01fdoving: could you identify please?06:46

DBOgo us...07:41
jussi01DBO: is there a reaon you dont reside in here?07:42
jussi01reason07:42
DBOlong story short, I work on GNOME Do, Docky, sekrit Canonical thingies, and school :P07:42
DBOI offered to turn in my op powers a long time ago, but they said I should keep them just to be handy when nobody else is around07:43
jussi01oh. right.07:43
DBOso uh, about that ban list being full, sounds like a problem that really should be dealt with07:44
jussi01DBO: Im attempting to deal with it. could ou please check all your bans?07:44
DBOsure07:44
DBOI've probably accumulated a few by now07:45
wgrantjussi01: The repo for that script seems to not be particularly working.07:45

DBOah fun07:52
DBOthe Council of IRC Knights07:52
wgrantOdd. I've met both the IRC Council members, and almost nobody else.07:52
DBOthey wear fancy cloak :D07:52
elkyDBO, actually no fancy cloak. if we did, then the trolls would want their own too. @ubuntu/troll/fujisan for example07:54
* wgrant always jumps at that name.07:55
elkyexamples should make a point :P07:55
DBOelky, I was thinking more along the lines of Jedi cloak...07:55
DBOits a Council... Jedi... I watch too much star wars...07:55
jussi01Remember, you can search on the bantracker for yourself in the following way: oper:jussi0107:56
wgrantHow does this legendary bantracker thing work?07:58
jussi01wgrant: it works off the irc team, so you wont have access yet.07:58
jussi01itll be opened for all soon enough.07:59
jussi01just it dies with just the irc team using it now, so we are rewriting it.07:59
jussi01oh yeah, wgrant, feel like some more fun? we always need more people to help out with bot/bt devel.... join us in #ubuntu-bots-devel if you care to :D08:00
wgrantjussi01: Ah, I see.08:00
wgrantjussi01: I've been meaning to fix ubottu's Launchpad plugin for months (it makes us in the LP dev world very sad)08:01
* jussi01 waits for wgrant to join the channel... :D08:01
wgrant(the bugs text interface is pretty inefficient, and keeps timing out. the API is much better)08:02
jussi01wgrant: is there a bug report for this?08:02
wgrantjussi01: I don't quite know.08:03
MenZaSpeaking of, jussi01 - when are nominations going to be public?08:04

samuelselky: danielle is a friend of mine in real life, i didn't know she'd take it that way. we're at college together08:26
elkysamuels, #ubuntu is a public place. Like a public library, if you would. Would you say that to her there?08:28
samuelsdepends what she was wearing08:29
elkysamuels, it doesn't matter what she is wearing. it does not give you the right to be crude like that08:30
samuelsit wasn't crude, it was lyrics from a song by salt n' peppa08:30
samuelsit's called 'shoop shoop'08:31

samuelsand let's see if i get it right08:54
elkywhy were you banned, and why was iit against the guidelines08:54
samuelsok08:55
samuelsi was banned because what i did was inappropriate08:55
samuelsand it's against teh guidelines because guidelines embodies a good moral code that we should all follow08:55
samuelsit includes things like not to sexually harrass women etc08:55
samuelsand i sexually ahrrased a woman08:55
samuelsand they deserve to be treated with respect08:55
samuelsok?08:57
samuelsbecause women are people to08:58
samuelsand they have feelings just like anyone else08:58
elkysorry, my mother decided that Right Now was a good time to ring08:59
samuelsoh ok08:59
samuelsyour mother is a woman to08:59
samuelsand she deserves respect08:59
samuelsso i can understand y u would talk to her now cos your just showing her that same respect09:00
samuelsthat i should show women09:00
elkyand i just had to tell her i was too busy to talk to her09:00
samuelshahah really? why? cos you're talking to me (a retard) on irc?!09:00
elkybecause i couldnt type to tell you otherwise.09:00
samuelshaha ok09:00
samuelswell anyway, it's all about women and respect etc09:01
elkyit's not all about any particular group, but yes, it is about respect.09:02
elkybut your ban was about how you degraded danielle.09:03
elkysamuels?09:05
elkysamuels, i'm not going to progress any further if you dont respond.09:08
elkysamuels, please respond.09:21

ikoniaTheFunkbomb: I think I see the problem - -hang on please.14:25
ikoniaahh ok, I see what's happened,14:27
TheFunkbombuh oh14:28
ikoniayou where in offtopic talking about building a computer for a friend in austrialia, you started talking about why you where bothering as you had no chance of having sex with her, you where asked to stop and started quoted your now famous lines of "stop breaking balls" and kept arguing, Amaranth set a ban forward on you when you left to here14:28
ikoniaany of that ring any bells ?14:29
TheFunkbomboh yeah lol14:29
TheFunkbombthanks!14:30
Tm_T...14:30
ikoniano problem, do you wish to discuss having it removed ?14:30
TheFunkbombnah, I don't really see the point14:30
TheFunkbombI've been down that road14:30
ikoniaI'm happy to remove it for you, I just need you to stop arguing and telling people to stop busting balls14:31
ikoniagughhh14:31
ikoniatoo slow14:31
bazhangheh14:31
ikoniajust pm'd him - he's not interested in having the ban removed and quotes it as one of the reasons he doesn't use freenode (yet he's on here ?) I'll change it to a flat ban for a while then,14:33
Tm_Taye14:35
Tm_Tikonia: you might like to add mention about his attitude14:36
bazhangbullgard4 keeps joining and quitting here14:36
ikoniait's in BT - he's a know problem with the attitude14:36
ikoniabazhang: he won't disscuss the ban14:36
bazhangjust wondered if you wanted to handle it14:36
bazhangikonia, ok14:36
ikoniaMenZa: (I think) was trying to talk to him about it14:36
MenZaHm?14:36
ikoniaMenZa: was it you who was trying to ping bullgard to join here ?14:37
MenZaI wasn't sure if the issue was resolved, so I never did14:37
PiciMatch: bullgard4!*@*!#ubuntu-ops by ikonia in #ubuntu on Oct 11 200914:37
ikoniaI put the ban on him for another does of offtopic questions14:37
ikoniahe tried to ban dodge by using bullgard5 and bullgard14:37
ikoniaso I left the ban in place as I wanted to talk to him as ban dodging is not normally his style14:37
ikoniabut he refuses to talk when he joins the channel14:37

naliothany objections to closing #ubuntu-release-party ( and options for redirection, if any )?17:09
Picinalioth: No objections here.  I'm not sure where to forward it to though.17:09
naliothit doesn't need forwarding17:09
PiciIts half-offtopic, half-people asking for support17:10
naliothbut i am open to options with a good reason  :)17:10
naliothok, +i today, +m next week (or the cruel CHANSERV CLEAR)17:11
PiciMaybe just point it to #ubuntu since jono was advertizing it a bit, so that people don't get confused and ask why its invite only.17:11
ikoniaI'd rather not redirect it17:12
ikoniaif people joining a channel for "fun" and get redirected and continue that fun it's going to be a pain in #ubuntu17:13
naliothyep17:13
PiciI'd normally agree, but I think we'll be getting people in #ubuntu asking why the party is invite only.17:13
ikoniadouble edged sword17:14
naliothbecause the party's over, of course17:14
naliothit's not a year-round thing17:14
ikoniais it possible to just close the channel17:14
ikoniaeg: "sorry - channel no longer exists" type closure ?17:14
ikonianot sure of the modes17:15
PiciThen just set invite only.17:15
naliothikonia: no, as anyone who joins it would create it anew17:15
ikoniaPici: but then that puts weight behind what you where saying, whicih I agree with also17:15
ikonianalioth: ahh, I did wonder17:15
PiciWhat was it doing before?17:15
ikoniagood question17:15
naliothwe could redirect it to -offtopic17:15
naliothbut i am not fond of any redirection17:16
naliothjono needs to provide more info (as in "the party won't last")17:16
ikoniajono pushed some pretty agressive and in my view ill thought through marketing17:20
ikoniait was recovered well though17:20
ikonianalioth: where/what was it doing before the party was open ?17:21
naliothikonia: i have no idea17:29
ikoniaI thought you as the all knowing may know.17:30
topylimy wto eurocents: the channel should only exist for a limited time. say week before and week after a release. otherwise it will just be a fork of -offtopic17:31
topyliand Pici, and yes they will buy me pints not because they have to (to get me to fix something) but because actually want to :)17:33

Amaranthiirc no one wanted to ban him because they didn't want him to bug them for the next month21:16
Amaranthpretty sure that was the one21:16

FlannelIndyGunFreak: What's your complaint?21:24
IndyGunFreakFlannel: i probably can't discuss the matter in a civil manner21:25
topylifor the record, i asked IndyGunFreak to change his quit message21:25
IndyGunFreaktopyli: and for the record, why do you care what y exit says, its not offensive, its not swearing21:25
FlannelIndyGunFreak: I encourage you to do so.  If you don't think you can at the moment, I encourage you to come back when you feel that you can.21:25
MenZa"If Barack Obama is the Answer, Then It was a Stupid Question" - just clarifying.21:25
tsimpsonIndyGunFreak: the rules for sending messages to a channel include all messages, including /part and /quit messages21:26
IndyGunFreaktsimpson: then enforce it fairly21:26
IndyGunFreaki don't have a problem w/ the rule21:26
IndyGunFreaki have a problem w/ the fact it is unfairly enforce21:26
tsimpsonIndyGunFreak: we are human, sometimes we miss something and would appreciate it if you (or others) brought it to out attention21:26
IndyGunFreaktsimpson: well, topyli gets his/her/its rocks off going after me21:27
IndyGunFreakand like i said, enforce it fairly, and i'd have no problem at all complying21:27
IndyGunFreaki dont' cause problems for anyone, in any of the channels,21:27
IndyGunFreakever21:27
tsimpsonIndyGunFreak: we do try, but there is only a limited number of us available at any time21:27
IndyGunFreakBS21:27
tsimpsonwe can't see everything21:27
topyliIndyGunFreak, i don't remember going after you21:27
IndyGunFreaktsimpson: im' not asking you to see everything21:27
IndyGunFreaktopyli: please, odn't talk to me21:27
tsimpsonwe are all volunteers, and have real lives too21:27
tsimpsonwe can't watch all the time21:28
IndyGunFreaktsimpson: right, you can only catch who you want to21:28
tsimpsonIndyGunFreak: no, that's not my point21:28
MenZaIndyGunFreak: If we're going to settle this dispute, please try to be civil.21:28
tsimpsonsometimes there is just no one watching21:28
IndyGunFreakMenZa: i'm beig as civil as possible21:28
IndyGunFreaki've not been rude yet, i've stated the fact21:28
FlannelIndyGunFreak: Do you honestly not believe that there are only a limited number of us at a time?21:29
tsimpsonwe do try to watch, but it's just not possible to watch all the channels all of the time21:29
IndyGunFreakwhatever21:29
IndyGunFreaktsimpson: you can repeat it all you want, it doesn't make it true21:29
topyliIndyGunFreak, please tell us where i have harrassed you, or "gone after you". so far i have asked you to change your quit message21:29
IndyGunFreaktopyli: i've politely asked you not to talk to me21:29
tsimpsonIndyGunFreak: ok, first it is true, doesn't matter if you believe it or not, still a fact21:30
IndyGunFreaktsimpson: and as i said, whatever21:30
Flanneltopyli: He feels you're going after only him, instead of everyone.21:30
tsimpsonsecond, I've tried to help you here, talking to you21:30
IndyGunFreaki'm not blind, i'm in the channels quite a bit21:30
tsimpsonbut you seem uninterested21:30
MenZaIndyGunFreak: If you don't feel like you can talk to topyli, perhaps it would be better to do this when you've calmed down a bit.21:30
FlannelIndyGunFreak: If you see other instances that we haven't caught, please bring them to our attention21:31
IndyGunFreakFlannel: whatever..21:31
tsimpsonthe bottom line is, the channel has rules and you don't want to respect that. we would love to discuss this and resolve the issue but you're not making it easy21:32
tsimpsonso, why should we help you?21:32
IndyGunFreaktsimpson: i probably chose the wrong time to come here and discuss this to be truthful.. should've waited a while21:32
IndyGunFreaklike i said, find the number of complaints about me bothering anyone,21:33
tsimpsonIndyGunFreak: ok, if you want to come back tomorrow, we can start again when everyone is calm, sound good?21:33
IndyGunFreaktsimpson: no21:33
FlannelIndyGunFreak: Then what is it you want to happen?21:33
tsimpsontomorrow is just a suggestion, when would you like to come back?21:33
tsimpsonfine, just make it a normal ban21:33
tsimpsonhe can come back when he wants to talk21:33

AmaranthI don't particularly like that message, honestly22:21
IndyGunFreakwell how does it break the rules?22:22
AmaranthIt's political trolling22:22
IndyGunFreakthere's a lot of things i don't like, i was taught to deal with them22:22
IndyGunFreakno its not..22:22
IndyGunFreakits a statement22:22
AmaranthIndyGunFreak: If it said "I don't like Obama" or something I'd be fine with it22:24
IndyGunFreakwhats the difference?22:24
IndyGunFreakits still a statement22:24
AmaranthBut if you said that message in the channel normally I'd immediately call !stop because that discussion is already offtrack22:24
IndyGunFreakits just a part message, i never discuss politics in channels22:25
AmaranthIndyGunFreak: But you're saying it in the channel by having it as a part message22:26
IndyGunFreakAmaranth: i've saw plenty of statements that were way worse than mine, and nobody gets warned22:26
AmaranthIndyGunFreak: Show them to me and they will22:26
AmaranthIndyGunFreak: I've had a few other people rather upset at me for making them change their part message22:27
IndyGunFreakAmaranth: thats my point... i'm nto an op, i've not been reported by anyone, yet i'm always targeted.. so is it just bad luck on my part?22:27
AmaranthSomeone saw you22:27
IndyGunFreakand someone ignores others22:27
AmaranthBad analogy, I know, but if someone gets away with stealing and you don't would you say it's not fair because someone else got away with it?22:28
IndyGunFreakTHATS a bad analogy22:28
AmaranthIt's a similar situation but with a very different event22:28
IndyGunFreakif you spend all yoru time standing over my shoulder to watch me steal, its a given that others will get away with it22:28
AmaranthI don't spend any more time watching you than anyone else22:29
IndyGunFreaki wasn't aying you directly22:29
AmaranthSure but I'm the one saying you need to change it22:29
IndyGunFreaki'm gonna change it...22:29
IndyGunFreakthats why i'm getting clearance before i do22:30
AmaranthIt's easy to know what is allowed22:30
IndyGunFreakcuz if topyli ever PMs me again, i'll complain again22:30
IndyGunFreakso something like, "Prayer - How to do nothing and feel good about it" would not be allowed right?22:30
AmaranthWould someone call !ops or !guidelines or anything similar if you said the same thing in #ubuntu or #ubuntu-offtopic?22:30
AmaranthRight, that would not be allowed22:30
IndyGunFreakhmm, ok.22:30
IndyGunFreakmaybe ops just open their eyes when im chatting or something22:31
IndyGunFreakparting/leaving, etc22:31
topyliIndyGunFreak, i might, and you may. however, think about this: you do have to observe channel rules, and you should listen when asked to do so22:31
IndyGunFreaktopyli: i do observe channel rules22:31
IndyGunFreaki don't bother anyone22:31
IndyGunFreaki don't swear, i'm hardly even rude22:31
topyliand no, religious trolling is no better than political trolling22:31
IndyGunFreaktopyli: then i wish you would enforce that as heavy handed on others as you do on me22:32
IndyGunFreakbut of course..  you won't22:32
topylii do22:32
IndyGunFreakwhatever22:32
IndyGunFreakdont *pee* on my back and tell me its raining22:32
AmaranthThis isn't helping...22:33
IndyGunFreakall i wanna know is if the quote I posted above is acceptable...22:33
topylihowever, your quit message didn't need a "heavy hand". but you should listen when people ask you to live by the rules of the pub22:33
IndyGunFreakand i'll change it.22:33
AmaranthIndyGunFreak: It isn't22:33
IndyGunFreakso if topyli bothers me anymore, then he would be harassing me, correct?22:33
AmaranthNot if topyli is talking to you as an op about op-related things22:34
topyliIndyGunFreak, i asked you to change your quit message. i will do so again if it's not nice22:34
Seeker`depends on whether you are doing anything wrong22:34
IndyGunFreakSeeker`: thats the thing, i don't bother people in the channels, and haven't ever.22:34
IndyGunFreaktopyli: can you read?... i asked if the one i posted was offensive22:34
IndyGunFreakif it is, i'll find another22:34
topyliyou have bothered people on the channel, with quit messages22:34
IndyGunFreaktill everyone says its oK.. so i dont have to deal w/ you anymore22:34
IndyGunFreaktopyli: whatever.. you only see what you want to see..22:35
AmaranthIndyGunFreak: I've told you twice it is offensive and so has topyli22:35
Seeker`IndyGunFreak: you were told that it isn't acceptable22:35
IndyGunFreakAmaranth: i never heard a word form you until today, adn i'm referring to the one i posted here22:35
topyliIndyGunFreak, you do have to deal with me, as long as i'm opping the channel and you are in there. sorry22:35
AmaranthIndyGunFreak: Right, I've told you twice the prayer one is not acceptable22:35
IndyGunFreakAmaranth: thats not mine.. thats someonje elses.. i'ms ure topyli will slap him on the back and say what a great part message that is22:35
Seeker`if an op sees it, they will say something to them about it22:36
AmaranthIf you see it tell an op22:36
IndyGunFreakmy job isn't to be your eyes.22:36
IndyGunFreaki'm just a communmity member here that tries to help22:36
MenZaso are we.22:37
AmaranthThen you are not allowed to complain when we miss them22:37
IndyGunFreakAmaranth: i am when i'm harassed22:37
AmaranthIndyGunFreak: Ok, this discussion has gone on long enough and isn't making any progress22:37
AmaranthSimply question: Are you going to change the message?22:37
IndyGunFreakbu tlike i said, thats water under the bridge... i'll change it, then i expect unless i'm breaking a rule,f or topyli to never bother me again22:37
topyliIndyGunFreak, you are not harrassed. you are asked to change your quit message22:37
MenZaAs I see it, this discussion is not going to go any further, and it's raising a number of issues.22:37
IndyGunFreaktopyli: whatever...22:37
Seeker`I'm confused as to how topyli could be harassing IndyGunFreak if he has never done anything wrong22:38
AmaranthIndyGunFreak: Playing the victim and being a jerk is not helping22:38
MenZaSpecifically, you being unwilling to comply, refusing to take a sober tone with us (we're here to help), and talking down to us.22:38
IndyGunFreakSeeker`: then there's no reasonm to comment further22:38
MenZaIt's not helping you, and it's not making our job easier.22:38
IndyGunFreakMenZa: i've complied, all i said, is the quote i posted(when I came back), acceptable.. and folks are talking about my former quote.. that one will change22:38
MenZaWe're people. We're not infallible. We don't have magic filters which will tell us when a quit message which violates the guidelines are posted.22:39
IndyGunFreakthats a done issue22:39
AmaranthAt this point even if you change the message I don't think the ban should be removed, you seem to have other issues.22:39
topylifor the record: i have never kicked or banned IndyGunFreak before in my life. i have asked him to change his quit message twice: today and 3rd of may this year22:39
IndyGunFreakAmaranth: i don't bohter anyone.22:39
IndyGunFreaktopyli: you keeping score or something?22:39
IndyGunFreaki don't really care abou tgoint back to offtopic.. i rarely chat there anyways22:39
topyliIndyGunFreak, fortunately it's automated :)22:39
MenZaIndyGunFreak: And THAT'S exactly what I'm talking about. If you can't take a sober tone, please don't speak at all.22:39
tsimpsonI don't think this is getting anywhere22:40
IndyGunFreakMenZa: my tone is sober.. with everyone but topyli22:40
tsimpsonIndyGunFreak: that's an issue22:40
Seeker`IndyGunFreak: don't accuse someone of harassing you and then make snide comments when they try to point out that they haven't been22:40
AmaranthIndyGunFreak: It needs to be so with everyone.22:40
MenZaIndyGunFreak: topyli is an op, and I suggest you speak to him like you would to any other.22:40
MenZaBe that in #ubuntu, -offtopic, or in here.22:40
IndyGunFreakSeeker`: its easy to pul one or two things out, thats all i'll say22:40
topyliwell, i'm not lifting the ban today. we can talk about it later when a rational discussion is established22:40
tsimpsonIndyGunFreak: regardless of if they are an op or not, in all our channels the Code of Conduct must be respected, part of that code is being respectful22:40
tsimpsonif you have a dislike for an op, ask for mediation22:41
IndyGunFreaknone of you are listening.. at all.22:41
IndyGunFreaki'm not here to discuss me getitng banned22:41
MenZaIndyGunFreak: I think you should come back when you can speak to topyli - and the rest of us - in a proper manner. If you don't like this solution, see !appeals. This discussion is not going anywhere.22:41
IndyGunFreaki'm asking a simple... question...22:41
IndyGunFreakMenZa: i am calm, i just want a single, simple, answer22:41
MenZaYou've had it answered, and you're still going on. And your attitude is totally unacceptable.22:41
IndyGunFreakwould this... be offensive..  If you wish to know what a man is, place him in authority.22:42
IndyGunFreakAuthor: Yugoslav Proverb22:42
tsimpsonIndyGunFreak: your (new) quit message seems fine. but that's not the entire issue any more22:42
Seeker`-00:30:43- :IndyGunFreak : so something like, "Prayer - How to do nothing and feel good about it" would not be allowed right?22:42
IndyGunFreakSeeker`: no, thats somebody elses22:42
Seeker`-00:30:55- :Amaranth+: Right, that would not be allowed22:42
IndyGunFreaki don't ant that one22:42
Seeker`thats the only one ive seen you ask about22:42
IndyGunFreaklike i said... i just want o make sure theres an understanding22:42
tsimpsonif you're not here to discus the ban, and just want to know if the message is ok. then it's fine22:43
tsimpsonif you don't want to discus anything else, we seem to be done22:43
IndyGunFreakwhat are you takling about tsimpson ?22:44
IndyGunFreaki came here, to ask 1, simple question22:44
MenZayou asked the question. you had a reply. and you're now asking for the fourth time.22:44
MenZaYes, that proverb would be an acceptable quit message.22:44
MenZaAnything else?22:44
IndyGunFreakMenZa: thank you, thast all i wnated22:44
tsimpson[22:42:04]<tsimpson> IndyGunFreak: your (new) quit message seems fine. but that's not the entire issue any more22:44

MenZaso that we may resolve this properly.22:45
