| Flannel | popey: You don't want to do that though, your signal to noise ratio goes down | 02:51 |
| Flannel | Also, did someone ask for ubottu to stop doing that? | 02:51 |
| maco | ipc in -ot is swearing after being told off for it | 05:01 |

| maco | tonyyarusso | 05:16 |
| IdleOne | lol | 05:17 |
| * IdleOne is silly | 05:17 | |
| maco | actually, there's this commercial where the tagline is "Tony's got it!" so i was thinking of that | 05:17 |
| maco | for like a year i read tonyyarusso as "tonya russo" | 05:17 |

| IdleOne | heh | 06:46 |
| ubottu | FloodBot3 called the ops in #ubuntu-ops-monitor (banlist filling up: 479 bans) | 07:51 |
| xdpirate | why the hell do i keep getting redirected in here?! | 08:28 |
| IdleOne | Little hard to tell the motivation behind some bans without comments. I am guessing his ban was due to the /part message he chose. | 08:39 |
| jpds | ikonia: Dude, your friend's back in -server as Somoel? | 12:12 |
| ikonia | not again | 12:32 |
| ikonia | can someone with ops in -server please remove Somoel he is ban dodging | 12:32 |
| ikonia | and please put the bshellz.net ban in place as I've put on ubuntu/kubuntu/xubuntu/ubuntu-offtopic | 12:33 |
| ikonia | jussi: I've put a blanket ban on bzshells rather than just the one host as the admins do not wish to limit people to just signing up and getting another shell | 12:38 |
| ikonia | the conversations I've had with them, they don't really want to police users on their box, so I put a blanket ban in place, ala tor | 12:38 |
| jussi | ikonia: I want to have a chat about that issue with the rest of the ircc first. | 12:39 |
| ikonia | sure, but just be aware there is blanket bans in #ubuntu/#kubuntu/#xubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic | 12:40 |
| ikonia | I removed the shellium ones as the admin's are keen to keep their servers clean and policed | 12:40 |
| bazhang | wonder if that is happydonut (termtermterm) | 13:26 |
| bazhang | servertech bot run by servertechpro was banned as a repeater bot earlier (again banned) | 13:37 |
| txwikinger | IdleOne: pong | 14:09 |

| Pici | Thanks for the heads up | 18:37 |
| ikonia | I thought the bot had been stopped messaging the channel ? | 20:36 |
| ikonia | jpds: what happened ? | 20:50 |
| jpds | Oh, packages.u.c. | 20:50 |
| ikonia | didn't sticky get kicked for debian comments the other day ? | 21:01 |
| * Pici shrugs | 21:01 | |
| gnomefreak | what is sticky? | 21:02 |
| Pici | a stick? | 21:02 |
| IdleOne | a nick | 21:02 |
| ikonia | a user | 21:02 |
| ikonia | and BT disagrees with me | 21:02 |
| gnomefreak | oh | 21:02 |
| guntbert | what happened to my edit request for !releases? | 21:33 |
| ubottu | In #edubuntu, alkisg said: !setup-ltsp is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/edubuntu/installLTSPlucid | 21:40 |
| ikonia | guntbert: give me a minute, I don't know about your request, but lets sort it out | 21:42 |
| ikonia | alkisg: hi there | 21:42 |
| alkisg | Hello | 21:42 |
| ikonia | what's up, and how can we help today | 21:42 |
| alkisg | I was just looking how can we add bots for #edubuntu, but I see highvoltage is an ubuntu-ops, so I guess we're ok :) | 21:43 |
| alkisg | ***not bots, facts | 21:43 |
| ikonia | which bot ? | 21:43 |
| alkisg | ubottu, but not bot, I mean just facts | 21:43 |
| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 21:43 |
| alkisg | E.g. !setup-ltsp is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/edubuntu/installLTSPlucid | 21:43 |
| ikonia | if you do !fact is = blah | 21:43 |
| ikonia | it will get submitted for addition | 21:43 |
| alkisg | Is this for all channels? Or can we have #edubuntu - specific facts? | 21:44 |
| ikonia | if you ask in edubuntu it gets forwarded and you can have an edubuntu only factoid, | 21:44 |
| ikonia | guntbert: you there ? | 21:44 |
| guntbert | ikonia: yes | 21:45 |
| ikonia | guntbert: want to give me a quick overview ? | 21:45 |
| alkisg | Is there some way to mark requests as edubuntu specific? | 21:45 |
| alkisg | (requests done from #edubuntu) | 21:45 |
| ikonia | alkisg: maybe drop in here and say "this is an edubuntu only factoid" | 21:45 |
| ikonia | other than that, I don't think so | 21:45 |
| ikonia | or you can do !no fact-#edubuntu is blah | 21:46 |
| guntbert | ikonia: of course - the releases factoid contains a broken link (http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/releases), I fond and provided a fix | 21:46 |
| ikonia | !releases | 21:46 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu releases a new version every 6 months. Each version is supported for 18 months to 5 years. More info at http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/releases & http://wiki.ubuntu.com/TimeBasedReleases | 21:46 |
| guntbert | *found | 21:46 |
| ikonia | guntbert: what's the link ? | 21:46 |
| alkisg | Thank you ikonia, I wouldn't want to bother people here much, so I'll make a list and ask when it's somewhat complete :) | 21:46 |
| ikonia | alkisg: it's no bother, always happy to help | 21:46 |
| guntbert | ikonia: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases | 21:47 |
| guntbert | the complete request was | 21:47 |
| guntbert | !no releases is reply Ubuntu releases a new version every 6 months. Each version is supported for 18 months to 5 years. More info at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases & http://wiki.ubuntu.com/TimeBasedReleases | 21:47 |

| ikonia | darn it, jumped the gun | 21:47 |
| guntbert | releases | 21:48 |
| ikonia | guntbert: is what I've put acceptable ? | 21:48 |

| ikonia | thank you hook | 21:49 |
| guntbert | ikonia: of course - I did the same thing - just replace one link with another | 21:49 |
| ikonia | cool | 21:49 |
| h00k | ikonia: you're welcome | 21:49 |
| ikonia | just checking | 21:49 |
| h00k | I joined just in time, apparently | 21:49 |
| ikonia | guntbert: saw you ask a few times, so all good now ? | 21:49 |
| guntbert | ikonia: all good now - I only wondered why it took two days for someone to fix it after I did the search already :-) | 21:50 |
| ikonia | sorry for being slow, I was a bit out of the loop on what you where asking | 21:51 |
| ikonia | I don't know what the delay was as I miseed the conversation, but someone can always change it to something better, I'd rather not have a broken link for such an important factoid though | 21:51 |
| ikonia | good eyes guntbert | 21:51 |
| guntbert | ikonia: no, please don't misunderstand - its perfectly ok to not immediately know what is the matter - I was talking about the team as a whole.... | 21:52 |
| ikonia | guntbert: ~I'm sure it was a disscussion point, but as no-ones piped up to stop me, I'm sure if can be changed later if this a problem | 21:52 |
| ikonia | right, I'm away for a while, | 21:52 |
| ikonia | thanks | 21:52 |
| guntbert | ikonia: have a nice time and thx :-) | 21:52 |
| arrrghhh | why? | 22:17 |
| ikonia | arrrghhh: thanks for joining | 22:17 |
| ikonia | arrrghhh: it's only 2 minutes as I don't want to talk in #ubuntu | 22:17 |
| arrrghhh | pm? meh. | 22:17 |
| ikonia | I totally understnad how frustrating it is when someone won't help themsevles, but you can't tell them to leave, or call them a lazy piece of ..... | 22:17 |
| arrrghhh | when they're obviously being a you-know-what? | 22:18 |
| arrrghhh | i'm here to help, but not when people act like that. | 22:18 |
| maco | a non-technical end user? | 22:18 |
| ikonia | there obviously not computer familier, or a little ahead of their time | 22:18 |
| ikonia | arrrghhh: your a good helper, so I don't want you to have a problem in ubuntu, just walk away if it winds you up | 22:18 |
| arrrghhh | uhm that dude obviously was just being a jerk. | 22:19 |
| arrrghhh | perhaps you didn't read what he said... | 22:19 |
| ikonia | arrrghhh: what did I miss | 22:19 |
| ikonia | arrrghhh: I may have missed something | 22:19 |
| arrrghhh | <Emery> arrrghhh: not wqhen you can do it for me | 22:19 |
| arrrghhh | in response to my link that i hand-fed him. | 22:19 |
| ikonia | arrrghhh: ok - so that's lazy and I'll speak to him about that | 22:19 |
| ikonia | that's not what helping is about, | 22:20 |
| arrrghhh | well it's not just lazy | 22:20 |
| ikonia | at the same time, you can't tell him to leave or call him a name | 22:20 |
| arrrghhh | excuse my french, but that's being a prick. | 22:20 |
| ikonia | arrrghhh: I agree, and I'll speak to him about it | 22:20 |
| arrrghhh | that's the thing, i didn't call him a name. i agree i shouldn't have said lazy piece of... but i stopped short of actually calling him anything :P | 22:20 |
| ikonia | arrrghhh: I know, but we all know what you meant | 22:20 |
| maco | uh, actually i would say that you called him lazy | 22:20 |
| arrrghhh | well yea | 22:21 |
| arrrghhh | he is | 22:21 |
| arrrghhh | that's a fact | 22:21 |
| maco | which is calling him something | 22:21 |
| arrrghhh | wow... alrighty then. | 22:21 |
| ikonia | arrrghhh: everyone gets frustrated and loses it once in a while, so don't worry, just please (easier said than done) just walk away | 22:21 |
| arrrghhh | i'm fine | 22:21 |
| * maco recommends lolcats | 22:21 | |
| arrrghhh | it's just when my help is met with that | 22:21 |
| arrrghhh | makes me a little upset | 22:21 |
| ikonia | arrrghhh: great, I know how frustrating that is | 22:21 |
| ikonia | it's easy to do, | 22:21 |
| ikonia | if you want to jump out of this channel and back into ubuntu, that's fine, I just wanted 2 minutes for you to calm down and see why you where getting spoken to about it, | 22:22 |
| arrrghhh | lol that's fine. i knew why you were talking to me. | 22:22 |
| arrrghhh | i knew what i 'did wrong'. | 22:22 |
| ikonia | cool, | 22:22 |
| ikonia | arrrghhh: if you want to drop out of this channel, I'll talk to the other party now | 22:24 |
| arrrghhh | fine | 22:24 |
| ikonia | thanks | 22:24 |
| ikonia | arrrghhh: ? | 22:24 |
| arrrghhh | sorry wanted to see the topic of the channel | 22:24 |
| arrrghhh | wondering what it is for haha :P | 22:24 |
| ikonia | arrrghhh: as discussed please | 22:25 |
| ikonia | Emery: be with you in a moment | 22:25 |
| ikonia | thank you for joining | 22:25 |
| Emery | ok | 22:25 |
| arrrghhh | oh you want me to leave? sorry. | 22:25 |
| ikonia | arrrghhh: thanks | 22:25 |
| Emery | ok so ? | 22:26 |
| ikonia | Emery: just wanted to talk to you about what just went on in #ubuntu | 22:26 |
| ikonia | first of all we've spoke to arrrghhh and explained he shouldn't have called you names or been so agressive, which he agress on , so no excuses there | 22:26 |
| ikonia | that said, the channl is full of people who give there time for free, and spend a lot of time helping people, so when there is a link on page saying "click here for detailed instructions" and someone points you at that, responding with "so you can do it for me" isn't really going to help build a positive relationship with them | 22:27 |
| Emery | ok | 22:27 |
| Emery | i responded with that due to his sarky comment | 22:28 |
| Emery | i had checked that link before hand | 22:28 |
| Emery | or i wouldn't of asked | 22:28 |
| ikonia | ok, so explaining that in your question may help people be more tollerent | 22:28 |
| ikonia | eg: I've read the link on how to install, but I'm stuck with X, Y and Z | 22:28 |
| Emery | well there are various ways i could of asked the question, granted. | 22:29 |
| Emery | but the response was far from acceptable | 22:30 |
| ikonia | I agree, and that's been delt with | 22:30 |
| Emery | and if he's a member of staff, then it's even worse | 22:30 |
| ikonia | it would just be a little more helpful if you could explain your question better so there is no missunderstanding and people will be more tollerent | 22:30 |
| ikonia | he's not a member of the operator team | 22:30 |
| ikonia | if someone does respond with a negative comment, don't respond back with a sarcastic comment to futher provoke the situation | 22:31 |
| ikonia | that's all really | 22:31 |
| ikonia | help yourself get the answers by asking a good question, and not provoking a situation if one arises | 22:31 |
| ikonia | (I know it's easier said than done also ) | 22:32 |
| Emery | to be honest i've been using linux for around 5 years i got abit lazy | 22:32 |
| ikonia | everyone does | 22:32 |
| ikonia | Emery: that's all I wanted to talk to you about really, | 22:33 |
| Emery | while im here though | 22:34 |
| ikonia | what's up ? | 22:34 |
| Emery | anywhere i can sign up to help with dev or anything ? | 22:34 |
| ikonia | Emery: there are tons of ways to contribute | 22:34 |
| ikonia | !contribute | 22:34 |
| ubottu | To contribute and help out with Ubuntu, see http://www.ubuntu.com/community/participate | 22:34 |

| ubottu | motu is short for Masters of the Universe. The brave souls who maintain the packages in the Universe section of Ubuntu. See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTU | 22:34 |
| ikonia | take a look at those to get you started | 22:35 |
| Emery | im looking for somthing more than channel help | 22:35 |
| Emery | oki | 22:35 |
| ikonia | yes, check those links out | 22:35 |
| Emery | i shall | 22:35 |
| Emery | alot of spare timer between working at the moment | 22:35 |
| Emery | time* | 22:36 |
| ikonia | those links will get you started | 22:36 |
| Emery | alright :) | 22:36 |
| Emery | excuse me while i go for a smoke | 22:36 |
| ikonia | Emery: you're welcome to leave the channel now, as we have a non-idle policy | 22:37 |
| ikonia | (unless there is something else you need from the operator team) | 22:37 |
| Emery | sorry i was rolling a cig, will you be around for further assistance if needed? | 22:38 |
| ikonia | sure | 22:38 |
| ikonia | you're welcome to rejoin if you need something from us | 22:38 |
| ikonia | the team is normally active 24x7 and all can help | 22:38 |
| Emery | 1 more thing | 22:38 |
| ikonia | sure | 22:38 |
| Emery | i see ubuntu originated in ireland, that true? | 22:38 |
| ikonia | canonical was orginally setup in ireland, the history is on the canonical website | 22:39 |
| ikonia | there are a couple of staff members in here who probably knowbetter, but they don't seem active at the moment | 22:39 |
| Emery | right im going to dash finish my kubuntu installation, i'll be back later will you be able to provide those links for me again when i'm back | 22:40 |
| ikonia | Emery: you can check them yourself, hit !contribute and !motu in any channel with ubottu in | 22:40 |
| ikonia | Emery: or send a pm to the bot (it's called ubottu) | 22:40 |
| Emery | alright thanks for the help | 22:40 |
| ikonia | welcome | 22:41 |
| ubottu | In ubottu, rww said: !no, point is <reply> Ubuntu periodically updates !LTS versions with point releases (e.g. 10.04.1). These point releases contain only packages already published through normal update channels. If you already have a fully-updated version, you're running the latest point release already! | 22:59 |
| hgfgjfgffg | why am I banned form #kubuntu when I never was there before? | 23:01 |
| IdleOne | hgfgjfgffg: /join #kubuntu-proxy-users wait for the bot to grant access to #kubuntu usually only takes a few seconds | 23:01 |
| IdleOne | You sre welcome | 23:02 |
| IdleOne | are* | 23:02 |
| IdleOne | Can someone please reset the forward to #kubuntu-proxy-users in #kubuntu please. | 23:03 |
| ikonia | I've just removed it in #ubuntu by mistake, what an idiot | 23:42 |
| ikonia | great, now it won't set | 23:44 |
| ikonia | ahhh there we go | 23:44 |
| IdleOne | you removed it again in #ubuntu | 23:45 |
| ikonia | because it was wrong | 23:45 |
| ikonia | either chanserv is responding really really slow, or something is wrong | 23:45 |
| ikonia | it won't set ??? | 23:47 |
| ikonia | it's the forward ??? it won't set with the forward on | 23:48 |
| IdleOne | hmm | 23:48 |
| IdleOne | *!*@gateway/web/*#ubuntu-proxy-users is the proper ban? | 23:48 |
| ikonia | no | 23:48 |
| Pici | You need to be opped in -proxy-users to set it | 23:48 |
| ikonia | do you ?? | 23:48 |
| Pici | yes | 23:49 |
| ikonia | I've never seen that before ? | 23:49 |
| Pici | The channel is not set +F | 23:49 |
| ikonia | that's odd, I can't op in proxy-users either ?? | 23:49 |
| ikonia | I'm sure I used to be able to | 23:49 |
| ikonia | now it works, good spot pici | 23:51 |
| ikonia | I guess I'll need to be op'd in #kubuntu-proxy-users to change #kubuntu to | 23:51 |
| Pici | yes | 23:51 |
| ikonia | clearly I missed the memo on that part ;) | 23:51 |
| IdleOne | So if I understand this right, +F will allow a forward from any channel? | 23:52 |
| ikonia | not allow | 23:52 |
| ikonia | done #kubuntu | 23:53 |
| ikonia | bed time | 23:53 |
| ikonia | thanks Pici, nice spot | 23:53 |
| IdleOne | good night | 23:53 |
| IdleOne | and thank you ikonia | 23:54 |
| Pici | IdleOne: yep, goodnight | 23:56 |
