[00:20] CShadowRun called the ops in #ubuntu-uk (Paraselene__) [00:31] hi [00:32] is any ops here.. who might be able to help me? [00:33] MK-BB: Which channel do you need help with? [00:34] #ubuntu-ko [00:34] we want to remove the locobot.. which logs our room [00:35] MK-BB: Locobot's admin contact is admin@ubuntu-eu.org. If nobody in here can help, that's where I'd ask. [00:37] MK-BB: Why do you want to remove it? [00:37] cuz.. we already have our own logging bot.. [00:38] no point having 2 bots, right..? [00:57] In #ubuntu-cym, ianto said: !windows7 is Windows 7 was not my idea [01:23] Hi, can you have ubottu join #ubuntu-us-dc? [08:25] hi, good morning [09:38] who was ubot3 maintainer? [09:39] or if it's not available anyway, some other bot to #ubuntu-fi please? [09:57] Tm_T: its nalioth and probably just needs a restart [10:05] nalioth: ^ [10:41] has anyone seen some mirc/invision spam lately? our loco channel just had one hit === remix_auei is now known as remix_tj === cjohnston is now known as wikipirate [17:43] popey: or anyone else who know. will the @ubuntu.com mailadress you get from being ubuntu member be made from my LP name or from my display name? [17:43] Philip5: LP name. [17:43] aha [17:43] Philip5: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuEmail [17:44] thanks [19:20] Am I in the right place? I was just opped in # ubuntu-us-or [19:20] I have a few questions on how to practice some op commands. I was told official channels are not the place to practice. Some commands are not doable in practice channels. [19:27] MarkDude: which commands? you can probably try registering a temporal channel and join a clone [19:28] but remember to drop the channel after you're done [19:28] m4v ty that makes sense. [19:29] I also was curious about muting. I know its a last resort. Is it ok as an op to PM a warning on an issue that could turn bad? [19:30] muting last resort? I thought banning was the last resort [19:30] I dont plan on needing anything heavier, in an emergency I would mute & seek an experienced OP [19:31] Im new, I'll mute & then look for expert. [19:32] I dont want to overstep bounds. What sources are there to learn more? My understanding is that some commands are changing. [19:33] I am talking about a channel that has 4 users at the moment. [19:34] As a new OP am I supposed to even think about bans? [19:35] I thought my tools were PM & mute. Eventually - I'll be more experienced, I just dont want to make a mistake [19:35] if you're dealing with an obvious troll, I don't see why not [19:35] but for a small channel like that, talking thing through would probably more effective [19:36] Fair enough. Ty for that really good point :) [19:36] (small tight community) [19:37] My thought also. I feel more comfortable, the more I review the *overview*. I just added this channel to my defaults. [19:39] OPs have more *wiggle room* (while acting as OP) on PMs for questionable statements - am I correct? [19:40] MarkDude: It might be worth joining #ubuntu-irc-helpers its a new channel details are at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/IrcTeam/UbuntuIRCHelpers there's some good info linked from the Catalyse section under learning & co-ordination [19:41] MarkDude: check https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/IrcTeam/OperatorGuidelines [19:42] MarkDude: Its a very new channel so still quite quiet, but if the plans for the channel work it should be quite helpful [19:43] Ty m4v DJones I added channel to defaults & bookmarked links. I also like the idea of wearing the helper hat 1st, and not needing to wear the OP hat ;) [19:44] the /silence part no longer works since ircd-seven switch, I think now is /mode +g for block private messages of abusive users [19:45] * m4v tries it [19:45] I forgot about that. [19:45] ubottu: ubuntu > m4v [19:45] m4v, please see my private message [19:48] Ty both. [19:58] I updated the /silence part [21:53] !equiv is Do not ask if we know a program similar to window's foobar just tell us what you want to do and we can suggest a program to do it. [22:05] !equiv [22:52] erUSUL: you didn't add the spanish one :( [22:53] m4v: ok ok... XD but as often happens the edit got lost ;) [22:53] !equiv [22:53] nobody added it yet [22:53] and probably wont add it === niko is now known as Guest77462 === nik0 is now known as niko
