| Raugturi | bazhang: I'm not sure actually why I'm in here. I joined #ubuntu and it put me here instead. | 00:07 |
|---|---|---|
| bazhang | Raugturi, you were ban forwarded here | 00:07 |
| Raugturi | Weird, any idea why? | 00:08 |
| bazhang | let me check, hold on a moment please | 00:08 |
| bazhang | *** Raugturi (Raugturi!chris@cpe-174-109-215-070.nc.res.rr.com) has quit IRC (Quit: :(){ :|:& };:) | 00:10 |
| bazhang | the quit message | 00:10 |
| Raugturi | That's funny. I forgot I'd even set that. If I change it can I get back in? (Although admittedly anyone randomly executing other people's quit messages would deserve it. :-)) | 00:11 |
| bazhang | not funny at all | 00:11 |
| bazhang | and no one deserves it, particularly new users who know no better | 00:12 |
| Raugturi | How on earth is putting something like that as a quit message taken as intent to get others to run it? | 00:14 |
| bazhang | why on earth put it there at all | 00:14 |
| Raugturi | The concept of forkbombs amuses me. | 00:15 |
| bazhang | okay then | 00:16 |
| Raugturi | Shouldn't moderation come from a standpoint of "why not?" vs "why?" in which case the argument you're using is that by having it new users may execute it and crash their machine. If that's really a threat then I'll change it. The idea of someone randomly executing my /quit message never crossed my mind. | 00:17 |
| bazhang | you asked the reason for the ban. that is it. it's not funny, nor does anyone deserve it. | 00:18 |
| Raugturi | Alright, well how do I go about getting unbanned? | 00:18 |
| bazhang | I see no reason to unban you at the moment as you think it's quite humorous and/or okay | 00:19 |
| Raugturi | Ok, so do you not believe that it was an honest mistake? | 00:28 |
| Raugturi | I'm just trying to understand how I can get you to see that I never expected anyone to run it. | 00:29 |
| Raugturi | So I wan't being malicious. | 00:29 |
| Raugturi | And it doesn't even seem like a careless mistake to me because the concept of someone randomly executing various /quit messages seems so bizare. | 00:30 |
| Raugturi | Even so, I'm not arguing to keep it. | 00:30 |
| Raugturi | It's your channel and if you dislike it that's fine. But it seems harsh to permanently ban someone for an honest mistake. | 00:31 |
| bazhang | almost never are there permanent bans. just wanted you to see/understand how that is not appropriate, especially in a channel with many new users | 00:36 |
| KB1JWQ | You'll find that most channels on freenode will take a similarly dim view of such things. | 00:39 |
| Raugturi | Haven't been banned from any so far, but like I said I changed it. I just thought it was funny to give a forkbomb as the reason I quit. Right, like "haha, my computer died" not like "hey, try this!" if that makes sense. | 00:40 |
| Raugturi | But if it seems potential malicious, like I said now it says "the hamster died" which I doubt will cause any harm so long as I avoid #peta | 00:41 |
| Raugturi | I debated "forkbombs aren't funny" but htought you might ban me even longer for being a smartass. :-) | 00:41 |
| Raugturi | So how long exactly does the ban last so I can take the channel out of my autojoin list? Or I can keep getting redirected here I suppose. | 00:46 |
| * funkyHat pokes bazhang | 00:49 | |
| bazhang | Raugturi, you can speak with the operator that banned you , if he is around. | 00:50 |
| Raugturi | Alright, I've got to step out for a bit just now. Who is the operator and I will follow up later? | 00:50 |
| funkyHat | ikonia | 00:51 |
| Raugturi | Thank you. | 00:51 |
| andrew_708476 | Is anyone here good with Ubuntu | 01:16 |

| bazhang | John-Smith, as there seems to be nothing you wish resolved, please part the channel | 09:00 |
| rww | How does #ubuntu-unregged work? Is FloodBot1 supposed to issue "Please register to join #ubuntu - Instructions at http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#nicksetup - Type !why to know why" itself periodicially, or is there some command to prompt it? | 09:01 |

If you feel the need to discuss the channel rules, please contact the ops on IRC or via the email address on the aforementioned page. | 09:05 |
| topyli | John-Smith: it's enough to know you are banned. i also won't remove the bans in the near future, so you might as well /part | 09:05 |
| John-Smith | topyli: where is ikonia ? | 09:05 |
| topyli | that's nobody's business but his | 09:06 |
| bazhang | John-Smith, you got that appeals message before. no need to join here | 09:06 |

| bazhang | Tm_T, jungli trying to get cloak in #freenode you are referring to? | 10:53 |

| bazhang | floodbots in -unregged are not giving the correct info | 11:01 |
| bazhang | http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#nicksetup <--- used to say this, now just tell users to register without it | 11:11 |
| bazhang | wish the floodbot in -unregged gave out the !register factoid instead | 11:30 |
| bazhang | floodbot back to normal now giving out the pertinent info on -unregged | 11:56 |
| bazhang | ugh. recommending dist-upgrade to change versions | 12:21 |
| gnomefreak | seems ubottu coughed in +1, is he getting sick? | 12:25 |
| ikonia | bazhang: thanks for the heads up, I messaged him but he was offline | 13:10 |
| jungli | hey unbanned me :( | 13:21 |
| jungli | i'm missing ubuntu-offtopic :@ | 13:21 |
| ikonia | jungli: I'm sorry no | 13:21 |
| jungli | plz i don't create any conflict :# | 13:22 |
| ikonia | jungli: you have had the process for appealing your ban explained to you multiple times, it will not be progressed in here | 13:22 |
| jungli | hey i like the ppl of ooftopic they are crazy :)) | 13:22 |
| ikonia | jungli: it's not going to happen. Please leave the channel and follow the appeals process | 13:23 |
| jungli | hey if you don't want my presence there but atleast give back my cloks :2 | 13:24 |
| ikonia | jungli: we do not control cloaks as you know, that is #freenodes issue | 13:24 |
| ikonia | jungli: now please leave the channel | 13:24 |
| gnomefreak | you think by now he would have learned. we should really have someone from staff that knows why we removed his cloaks to be there so they just dont add one back | 13:27 |
| ikonia | staff are well aware | 13:27 |
| * gnomefreak thought it is easier to dodge bans without a cloak | 13:28 | |

| gnomefreak | doesnt change my mind, but #u is IMHo no tthe place for it | 13:34 |
| bazhang | asking for the 128bit jre package | 13:34 |
| gnomefreak | there is one? | 13:34 |

| gnomefreak | but he is not doing anything but bothering me so i have to deal with it :\ | 13:37 |
| topyli | i think it's safe to say we will never see this book | 13:40 |
| topyli | he's been asking basic questions on our channels for ages | 13:40 |
| ikonia | bazhang: he now says he's not writing a book | 13:43 |
| popey | is this humble? | 13:43 |
| topyli | popey: yes | 13:44 |
| ikonia | bazhang: that was one of the arguments he made when he was banned from all the wikipedia channels | 13:44 |

| ikonia | we all know it's nothing to do with a book, he's trying to do suspect stuff | 13:45 |

| ikonia | eg: he was caught using the comments in wikipedia to claim work as his own | 13:46 |

| IdleOne | bazhang: me either, I'm already bored with maverick I want to upgrade to natty :) | 16:10 |
| bazhang | IdleOne, hehe | 16:10 |
| Pici | bazhang: I corrected them. | 16:23 |
| bazhang | Pici, yes I saw. | 16:24 |
| jussi | meh... maverick is very poor here | 16:27 |
| gord | jussi, how so? | 16:29 |
| IdleOne | jussi: I have been running maverick since day 3 of +1 opening and have no issues except for having to startx to get gui loaded | 16:29 |
| IdleOne | it's a pain but I don't reboot very often so | 16:30 |
| Pici | I've had no issues at all. | 16:30 |
| jussi | gord: well I havent had nvidia drivers for so darn long, I begin to wonder if Illever get them. then there are all the other little issues, like occaisionally just freezing on boot, requiring hard reset etc | 16:30 |
| IdleOne | Pici: my issue has to do with nvidia | 16:30 |
| gord | jussi, you don't have nvidia drivers? wuh? | 16:30 |
| IdleOne | jussi: install nvidia-current ? | 16:31 |
| jussi | gord: proprietry drivers dont work, nviidia-current, yes | 16:31 |
| jussi | tried the adding no abi to the xorg, works for one or 2 boots then goes away | 16:31 |
| jussi | very frustrating | 16:31 |
| IdleOne | from what I understand it has to do with dkms not building the modules properly or somesuch | 16:32 |
| gord | so you do have drivers then, they work. its just that something is reseting your xorg.conf | 16:32 |
| topyli | lucid works pretty well! | 16:43 |
| gord | maverick is going through hicups right now because everyone is getting things in for freezes, but honestly its been a very nice stable place to be all dev cycle | 16:47 |
