IdleOnehe is using a shell to connect, your-server.de he knows full well what he is doing00:06
IdleOneconk seems to think I am out to get him. So maybe someone else ask him for the second time to relax with the ENTER00:36
bazhangmurdoc is a well known troll. removed him.00:38
IdleOneok00:38
bazhanghe likes to hang in #freenode and say 'take it to #defocus' (even to staff)00:38
IdleOneheh00:39
ubottuFloodBot1 called the ops in #ubuntu-ops-monitor (repeated abuse from conk)00:41
IdleOneI haven't been around much the past 5 days but does it seem like the trolls are out in extra force today?00:43
bazhangseems that way. tag-teaming even00:44

IdleOnethank you01:03
Jordan_UMight want to watch hiexpo in #ubuntu01:06
Jordan_UI'm pretty sure that he's a troll at this point.01:20
Jordan_U!staff01:27
ubottuhey Christel, Dave2, Gary, KB1JWQ, Levia, Martinp23, Pricey, SportsChick, VorTechS, jayne, jenda, marienz, nalioth, niko, nhandler, rob, stew or tomaw, I could use a bit of your time :)01:27
marienzhmm?01:27
Jordan_Umarienz: hiexpo is trolling #ubuntu01:28
marienzyou want the ubuntu ops then, right?01:28
Jordan_UYes, sorry.01:28
marienzno problem01:29
Jordan_UWhat is the best way to get the ops attention? I don't want to give hiexpo the gratification of a confrontation (which is what he is asking for) by using !ops in #ubuntu.01:32
marienzhe seems to have calmed down already. I'd also expect talking in here to do the trick, but you really need to ask them, not me01:33
funkyHat@mark #ubuntu-offtopic blendmaster1024 (PigeonCluster) warned him about making homophobic comments, he said ok01:45
ubottuThe operation succeeded.01:45
IdleOneJordan_U: you can also /msg ubottu !ops | nick I believe02:07
tsimpsonno, you can't02:08
IdleOneok you can't02:08
tsimpsonbut you could just  call ops in here :)02:08
IdleOnetrue02:08
tsimpsonor rather ops-#ubuntu02:08
xyanyone has used habak ? i'm trying to get "multi-layered backgrounds" to work, i.e. a collation of 3 images, but looks like, it only draws 1 layer. :\ also i can't get -mc to work :( please help02:44
IdleOnexy: try asking in #ubuntu please this is not a support channel02:44
tsimpsonIdleOne: ban-forward02:45
xyIdleOne: oops, i joined #ubuntu, i wonder, how'd i came here.02:45
IdleOneahhh02:45
IdleOnexy: seems you were sent here because you got banned from #ubuntu02:46
xylooks like there's a channel forwarding.02:46
xyIdleOne: may i ask the reason ?02:46
IdleOneI am looking, gimme one minute please02:47
xysure, take your time. :)02:47
IdleOnexy: I don't see a reason why you got banned02:48
IdleOnetsimpson: ?02:48
tsimpsonI can't see anything either, let me do some digging02:49
xy*shrugs*02:49
xyfrom what i can recall, i would 've been switched to Guest???? a few hours ago, after i reconfigured my znc hosted @ shellium, without the "autoidentify to nickserv" module,  because of some intermittent problems with the shellium server and wrong meta information at motd screen, but laters i fixed that.02:53
tsimpsonthis was back in March, I'm doubting it's actually a ban on "you" as such02:54
IdleOneit is a ban on the nick02:55
IdleOnexy is registered so02:55
xyoh then, may i request the unban, i'm not sure of it, either. I don't get banned normally though :)02:55
xyperhaps, i registered this nick, just a few days earlier, prolly 1 week :)02:56
IdleOnea year02:56
tsimpsonxy: you can join #ubuntu now, sorry about that02:57
xyIdleOne: that's when i registered my account :) not this nick02:57
xytsimpson: sure, no problem, thanks for the resolution.02:57
tsimpsonikonia: plz to use comments :)02:58
IdleOneplz plz :)02:58

tsimpsonnever mind03:13
IdleOne:/03:14
tsimpsonfwiw, I set a ban on $a:meoblast001, so if he's identified to services he'll be banned03:18
tsimpsonprobably the best one can do with a dynamic IP and ever-changing ident03:19
IdleOnetsimpson: how old was the ban?03:20

ZachK_hello?06:00
tonyyarussoZachK_: What can we do for you?06:03
ZachK_tonyyarusso: ah hello...got a question...06:03
ZachK_I'm looking to eventually become one of you...an operator..was wondering how i go about that06:04
tonyyarussoOh geez, we totally just rewrote that process.....um06:05
ZachK_Lol06:05
* tonyyarusso searches for the doc06:06
ZachK_here's my wiki page https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ZachK_ incase you're curious06:06
tonyyarussoOh yeah!  You apply on LP.06:06
tonyyarussoI swear we have a full explanation here somewhere though.06:07
ZachK_LP link?06:07
tonyyarussoHere it is - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/IrcTeam/OperatorRequirements06:08
ZachK_tonyyarusso: thanks..I'll look at those and then get back with you if that's ok06:09
tonyyarussoSure thing06:09
ZachK_well the only channel i can OP in is #ubuntu-beginners-wiki as I'm the Beginners Team Wiki Lead right now so i don't think i qualify from what i'm reading06:10
ZachK_and of course my personal channel06:11
tonyyarussoIt's saying you have to start on one channel and work your way up, not jump in headfirst.06:21
mneptokZachK_: are there official Ubuntu channels where you are active?06:41
ZachK_mneptok: i usually hang around in #ubuntu07:02
ZachK_mneptok: and #ubuntu-beginners #kubuntu07:02
mneptokZachK_: but you're not *active*07:02
ZachK_mneptok: active as in assisting people? yes i am07:02
mneptokusing this nick?07:03
ZachK_always07:03
ZachK_only nick i use07:03
mneptokhttp://paste.debian.net/7594907:03
ZachK_yeah my internet kept cutting out...and I've been doing multiple things today not to mention the other channels im in07:04
mneptokthat's your chatting history from #ubuntu for all of 201007:04
ZachK_Yes i understand that...don't think i'm saying that I'm there every day all the time...nor am i saying that I deserve this right now...it's something that I'm trying to attain07:05
mneptokZachK_: i don't want to seem like i'm picking on you, but IRC ops are generally chosen from very active channel members. and you're simply not active in #ubuntu. so i asked if there's another channel where you *are* active.07:06
ZachK_mneptok: well have you heard of the beginners team?07:06
mneptokhttps://wiki.ubuntu.com/BeginnersTeam  <---- that team?07:07
ZachK_mneptok: yes07:07
ZachK_Full member/mentor and the BT's Wiki FG lead...so any bt channels i'm usually in almost 27-707:07

jussiZachK_: is there something more you need from us?08:41
jussiHappy birthday mneptok!!!!08:55
* mneptok does a disturbing little birthday dance08:56
ZachK_mneptok: i'm back..sorry it took me so long08:59
mneptokZachK_: do you use Ubuntu, Kubuntu, Xubuntu, or ... ?09:00
ZachK_mneptok: My Linux distro of choice is Ubuntu...i'm using Vista atm though..soon to dual boot ubutnu/vista. (Vista needed for my itunes)09:01
mneptokZachK_: i would strongly recommend adding the official channel for your Ubuntu flavor to your auto-join list. and be active there. the -beginners team is, AFAICS, not an official team.09:01
mneptokZachK_: ops will not be selected unless the core ops team and the IRC Council have seen sustained, meaningful commitment from a candidate.09:02
ZachK_mneptok: Like I said...not something I expected nor wanted like, right now. I know that I don't have enough experience for that type of job...not to mention I'm running two, almost three different projects right now...just was something I wanted to attain in the foreseable future09:03
mneptoki'm just letting you know the requisites for candidacy.09:04
mneptokor, rather, successful candidacy.09:04
ZachK_yeah09:05
mneptokIIRC, all the recently approved new ops have been actively contributing in the core channels for years. not months.09:05
ZachK_mneptok: I totally understand...just wanted to get some info was all....09:06
mneptoknot a problem09:06
mneptokasking for info is better than asking for +o ;)09:07
ZachK_Well thanks for your time....now I must go back and manage the Wiki FG....09:07
ZachK_mneptok: Yeah I agree with that..09:07
mneptokZachK_: note that we have a no-idling policy stated in the /topic. that's why jussi /kick'ed you earlier.09:07
ZachK_Yes I caught that...just got back downstairs....09:08
mneptokjussi gets cranky when he hasn't had his juice box and a nap.09:08
ZachK_LOL09:08
ZachK_Now that's funny09:08
mneptoknot really. he throws things and uses Finnostralian profanity.09:09
ZachK_Ok mneptok thanks again. Gotta head out and prepare my meeting Schedule/Topic for the Wiki.....(lovely.........)09:09

ikoniabalzac back doing his regular "bruder" troll crap10:34
rocket16Hello respected Operators.10:43
ikoniarocket16: I've forwarded you here to resolve this issue10:43
rocket16I need your help on a matter, I have been wrongly kicked off the Ubuntu support channel.10:44
ikoniarocket16: please do not advertise randomly, any channels ubuntu or not in #ubuntu, if someone needs a specific channel, please give them, but don't activly advertise channels10:44
rocket16Bazhang, are you here? Can you please help me a way out?10:44
ikoniaI have first of all asked you to not do this, you argued it, I tried to explain the reasons, you argued, I have then told you not to do it, you've argued it, I've asked you to stop arguing it, you've continued to argue, so I've forwarded you here to explain the issue and resolve it10:45
Tm_Trocket16: you better talk with ikonia for now10:45
ikoniaif you can please not advertise channels in #ubuntu in future, and when someone asks you then tells you to stop, don't argue it, just accept it,10:45
ikoniaif you really feel stong about it, then join this channel to discuss it futher10:45
rocket16ikonia: A simple information does not matter much, does it? Also we could have simply put an end to the matter. I did not know that you are an Operator anyway.10:45
ikoniaif you can accept that and abide by it, I'm happy to remove te ban10:46
ikoniarocket16: yes, information DOES matter10:46
Tm_Trocket16: if someone is an operator or not is irrelevant10:46
rocket16Tm_T: I see, ok thanks for info.10:46
ikoniarocket16: is it ok for me to post -uk advertisments, or Pici to post -usa loco advertisments no10:46
rocket16ikonia: But that was a support channel too, and those exist as a part of support as a country-specific category10:47
ikoniait can't be one rule loco channel and not for another, so if you advertise the channel, I can't stop anyone else advertising their locos10:47
ikoniarocket16: but you're advertising a channel in a support channel10:47
Tm_Trocket16: and not need to be advertised actively like you do10:47
ikoniaits not a recruiting channel10:47
rocket16ikonia: I see,10:47
ikoniarocket16: if someone guy comes in looking for the indian channel, or would be better served by the indian channel, give it to him, but don't randomly seek out people to populate it in a support channel10:47
rocket16ikonia: Well, I admit my mistake, might be I had been offtopic.10:48
ikoniayou where offtopic - fact10:48
ikoniarocket16: I'm more concerned that you kept arguing the point when asked and then told to stop10:48
rocket16ikonia: Ok, my apologies.10:48
ikoniabut if your comfortable with the rules now, I have no issue removing the ban10:48
rocket16ikonia: Well, I did not know this rule, but I'll keep that in mind.10:49
ikoniarocket16: I told you the rule, eg: asking you to stop and then telling you to stop10:49
ikoniahowever, I've removed the ban, please keep in mind is someone (not just an operator) asks you to stop something, at try to respect it, it's a community channel10:49
ikoniaif you have a real issue with it, join this channel and ask an operator for help10:50
rocket16ikonia: Well, but didn't I also say that we should put an end to the matter, as it might had been offtopic?10:50
rocket16ikonia: Well, thank you.10:50
rocket16Thank you ikonia and other operators10:50

Picihrm.  It looks like a lot of links that point to ubuntu.com pages are broken with the website redesign.  I really wish that they had setup redirects for those pages.20:33
charlie-tcayup20:34
charlie-tcaLots of the old pages were taken down completely20:34
Tm_Tindeed, example all those pages that explained governing in ubuntu are now bundled to one, and all related links in wiki are broken I guess20:41
charlie-tcaI discovered it trying to go to the mailing list etiquette page. It is gone20:47
charlie-tcaWhat was mailinglists/etiquette got added to mailing lists itself - http://www.ubuntu.com/support/community/mailinglists20:48

popeya question for ops... do some/most loco irc channels 'allow' the ubuntu irc team to be ops in those channels?23:12
popeyas a 'backup' for when something happens and no local ops are about?23:12
Tm_Tpopey: irc team? you mean council?23:16
popeyi mean people who do regular ops duties in places like #ubuntu23:16
popeypeople who hang out in here23:16
Tm_Thmm, that would require picking them individually... doesn't happen in -fi atleast23:17
popeythere isnt a mask that could be used?23:17
Tm_Tpopey: well, there's ubuntu members cloak, but that's not what you're after23:18
popeyyeah23:18
popeymaybe we should just have more ops who are around a lot at the moment23:18
Tm_Twhat time you have problems most?23:18
popeyits not really a time thing23:19
Tm_Toh23:19
funkyHatpopey: if you could do with more ops in -uk I'd be happy to volunteer. I'm mostly in -offtopic but I idle there and don't mind being "on call" or whatever you want to call it ⢁)23:19
popeyok, thanks23:19
Tm_Tpopey: recruiting that is then (:23:19
* gnomefreak should really read email more carefully i just noticed ubottu is gone in -mozillateam 23:26
gnomefreakis that what the email was about?23:26
Tm_T?23:26
gnomefreakTm_T: i dont recall who but there was a email to the mailing list about the bots23:27
gnomefreaki dont have GUI atm so i cant read it23:27
Tm_Tright23:28
Tm_Tgnomefreak: yes, there were a bit of bot reorganisation23:28
gnomefreakubot4 works fine i just should have read it completely before losing GUI23:30
gnomefreakis this going to interfere with anything. for example will loging into ubot4 using @login be the same as with ubottu?23:33
Tm_Tgnomefreak: I suppose23:38
Tm_Tbut I don't know for sure23:38
gnomefreakok ill try to get X back tomorrow and read it23:44
gnomefreakTm_T: thanks23:44
Tm_Tgnomefreak: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Bots is good source23:46
gnomefreakTm_T: thanks ill save it for tomorrow :)23:48
Tm_Tgnomefreak: I would assume #ubuntu-bots-team is best place to ask questions if there's any after you have read mail & all23:50
