[03:51] <tsimpson> Roasted: hi
[03:53] <Roasted> hi there tsimpson
[03:53] <Roasted> I was looking for you last night.
[03:54] <Roasted> hows it hangin
[03:54] <tsimpson> I was sleeping, luckily I'm up late tonight
[03:54] <Roasted> ha, yeah. I only just now got home from work.
[03:54] <Roasted> Spent 15 hours straight imaging Windows laptops
[03:54] <Roasted> to say the least I'm ready for a vacation.
[03:55] <tsimpson> so, you wanted to talk about the ban in #k
[03:56] <Roasted> eh, yeah - it'd be nice if we could get to some sort of common ground regarding it.
[03:56] <Roasted> I thought it was a temp ban and had planned to just wait it out.
[03:56] <tsimpson> I have a question, and it's a good one
[03:56] <tsimpson> do you still feel you were right an I was abusing my operator powers?
[03:56] <Roasted> more nad more kubuntu questions came up and I was like, well, that sucks, I cant get in there
[03:57] <Roasted> It doesn't even matter anymore. I'm the first to admit I shoot my mouth off at times. I'm just used to channels that aren't so... heavily... moderated.
[03:57] <Roasted> not that it's an excuse, but, ya know
[03:57] <Roasted> it's just my view
[03:57] <tsimpson> I know #kubuntu was practically dead at that time, but we don't say rules apply 9-5 and it's a free-for-all after that
[03:57] <Roasted> yeah, that's understandable
[03:57] <tsimpson> if we enforce a rule at all, it should be all the time
[03:58] <Roasted> yeah I gotcha
[03:58] <Roasted> well anyway, I'm just trying to be civil for once and come to some sort of common ground on the matter.
[03:59] <tsimpson> Roasted: one sec and I'll get the ban removed
[03:59] <Roasted> you're the man
[04:00] <tsimpson> Roasted: you should be able to join now
[04:00] <Roasted> thanks a lot bro
[04:00] <Roasted> I appreciate it
[04:00] <Roasted> sorry about all of that too
[04:00] <Roasted> didnt mean to cause a fiasco
[04:01] <tsimpson> as long as we understand each other :)

[07:30] <The_Thing> It's getting a little ridiculous
[07:30] <LizardK|ng> i wanted to test myself in the #ubuntu-read-topic channel and it said i wasn;t using my usual nick and to come here
[07:30] <maco> it's being dealt with, folks
[07:30] <LizardK|ng> because i want to see a mother spanking her child hard :D
[07:30] <Flannel> LizardK|ng: That means you haven't been exploited

[07:30] <maco> xae8koo: for flooding...
[07:30] <The_Thing> Port 8001 ftw
[07:30] <tsimpson> xae8koo: because they were k-lined
[07:30] <Flannel> xae8koo: That mute was removed, other measures are in place, so he didn't really.
[07:31] <maco> xae8koo: oh unbanned. sorry i cant read :)

[07:31] <Flannel> xae8koo: Is there anything else we can help you with today?
[07:31] <khelvan> Does the exploit of someone trying to send me .mpegs affect my computer in any way?
[07:31] <maco> maybe we should define k-line?  it means theyre banned from the whole server
[07:31] <Flannel> The_Thing: Is there something we can help you with today?
[07:31] <Flannel> khelvan: No, it mainly affects routers
[07:31] <maco> LizardK|ng: someday if you're good you may be chosen
[07:32] <maco> LizardK|ng: that's about it
[07:32] <LizardK|ng> i want to be made
[07:32] <Flannel> khelvan: The sending of th mpegs is just silliness, they're trying to send you a file, if you deny/ignore/whatever it, you're fine
[07:32] <maco> LizardK|ng: asking won't work
[07:32] <khelvan> Flannel, thank you, I didn't know if they were exploiting a vulnerability in IRC clients or something.
[07:32] <LizardK|ng> ok, i'll do a dance instead
[07:32] <Flannel> khelvan: Nope, it's overzealous router protection
[07:33] <Flannel> !exploit | khelvan
[07:33] <ubottu> khelvan: There are people around who think it is funny to abuse a bug in certain routers by sending invalid DCC commands. When bitten by this bug ops in #ubuntu remove users so they are no longer targets. To fix it have a look here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixDCCExploit

[11:11] <Flannel> I don't have a need for an evening dress, kthxbai
[11:13] <jussi01> Just so people understand, I am standing back a little from active operator duties, if another op is free to deal with it then I will not. However, if I am around and other ops are not, then I can and will deal with issues.
[11:14] <Flannel> jussi01: That policy is half-baked, for the record.
[11:15] <jussi01> Flannel: care to explain?
[11:16] <Flannel> I understand what it hopes to accomplish, but I don't think it will.  People are still going to whine because you're an op, and they still think we're all part of an 'exclusive club' and have each others backs 100% all the time and conspire against people.
[11:16] <jussi01> oh, cc meeting seems to be on...
[11:17] <jussi01> Flannel: I think you are missing the point. idea is just if I need to mediate, then its better if I havent been involved already.
[11:17] <Flannel> We don't (as far as I know) as the Technical board to step down from actively developing out of concerns for favoritism or cronyism or whatever.
[11:17] <jussi01> Flannel: this is temporary until we at least have a full IRCC again, then Ill look at the siutuation again.
[11:18] <jussi01> at the moment, we have 2 mediators.
[11:18] <Flannel> jussi01: No, we have a room full of mediators.  Every operator is a mediator, only after that doesn't work do we appeal to the IRCC.
[11:19] <Flannel> (well, every operator minus the one(s) involved directly)
[11:19] <jussi01> Flannel: exactly my point. If we get an appeal, and Ive been involved, where does that leave us?
[11:20] <Flannel> jussi01: I understand.  I was speaking on the other policy.
