[02:33] <cousteau> hi, I've been banned from #ubuntu-es for no aparent reason
[02:33] <nhandler> cousteau: Have you tried contacting the OP who banned you?
[02:34] <cousteau> nhandler: the problem is that I wasn't connected when I was banned
[02:35] <cousteau> I went out to test a live cd, when I tried to go back to #ubuntu-es it simply said I was banned from the channel
[02:36] <cousteau> according to a log there was a troll/flame/spam/flood wave just when I disconnected, maybe I was banned accidentally?
[02:39] <nhandler> cousteau: It looks like the OPs for #ubuntu-es are not available right now. I would suggest waiting a few hours until they are available, and then PMing one of them to inquire about your ban
[02:47] <cousteau> is there a way to know when somebody was banned from a channel? the log doesn't show that info
[02:48] <nhandler> cousteau: The ban list should should when the ban was set, but the OP who set it will probably remember
[02:48] <cousteau> I mean, can _I_ know when _I_ was banned?
[02:50] <nhandler> cousteau: Actually, it appears that your issue is you are using a web gateway. Try using a regular IRC client instead
[02:51] <cousteau> only that?? ok... I'm on the LiveCD and the Empathy first use wizard didn't show an IRC option, so I connected using webchat.freenode.net
[02:53] <nhandler> cousteau: You can try installing xchat or another IRC client from the repositories
[02:56] <ubuntu_> ok, it worked
[02:56] <cousteau> yes, I'm on the channel now
[02:57] <cousteau> thanks nhandler!
[02:57] <nhandler> You are welcome cousteau. Have a nice day.
[02:58] <m4v> ah, yesterday erUSUl banned the whole webchat, I'll remove it
[03:00] <cousteau> thanks... I'm on irssi right now, but thanks anyway
[03:01] <m4v> our troll uses proxies, can skip the webchat ban easily so there's not much point in banning it
[21:02] <Tm_T> busy day today
