I am sorry adn ask that i may be considered for an unban in future as i do have ubuntu on another computer i use so would like to come here for ubuntu only help. I have learnt my lesson. I dont mind being banned for a week or so.01:19
its-me-againI will not come here for another reason than ubuntu help when on that os01:20
its-me-againdid sopmeone try to pm me01:27
IdleOneits-me-again: you are going to have to come back when ikonia is available.01:28
its-me-againi was baned for asking help while logged in to  linux mint chanel and ubuntu i think. asking same things. adn being on mint901:31
its-me-againthat is fair enough01:31
its-me-againi understand teh ban01:31
its-me-againi just need to come here for ubuntu help when i am actually using my ubuntu os01:32
IdleOneI understand that but I can not remove the ban, you will have to speak to ikonia about it and he does not seem to be active at the moment. you can try tomorrow right around the same time the ban was set01:33
IdleOnewas 14:00 UTC01:33

bazhangits-me-again, please dont idle here01:37
bazhangdirtbag256 is a known issue; Iam360 buzag crivit theeanomaly01:40
IdleOneyeah but he wasn't the issue in this case01:40
IdleOneor was he? /me reads further back01:41
bazhanghis "advice" was suspect prior to this01:41
IdleOneI will be quiet and let you take care of it then :)01:42
its-me-againok thanks for info i will check back later then i know that i may not be allowed in again.01:42
bazhanggot him in PM. still the same old nonsense.01:57
bazhangthune3, hi03:17
thune3since i am not going to register, the question isn't !why, but when, or by what criteria, with the #ubuntu lockdown be lifted.03:17
bazhangthune3, as soon as we feel the spambot attacks have subsided and its wise to do so03:18
bazhangvery  severe of late.03:18
thune3should I just for get about trying again until tomorrow, or is there any chance of a lifting in the next 6 hours?03:19
thune3just my 2c: I think that a lockdown not only puts off the paranoid (like me), but also new ubuntu users who may have a casual question. Lockdowns of more than 1-2 hours are extreme and should be carefully evaluated. That's all, good luck.03:22
bazhangsomehow his IP got reset and he was able to get around the mute.03:24
rww-!- hehehe [~DirtBAG22@92.251.185.4.threembb.ie] has joined #ubuntu-unregged03:41
rwwbanevasion attempt ^^^03:41
bazhangrww, nice catch03:45
rwwthanks :)03:45
bazhangwhy do I have ops in that channel?03:46
rwwall the #ubuntu ops do03:47
bazhangso the people in there should surely be able to get voice in here03:47
rwwplus some crazy people like me that shouldn't be allowed to operate an eggtimer (:03:47
bazhangie the people who have ops there03:47
rww(thanks to the ubuntu member cloak)03:47
bazhangyou have ops in -women though iirc03:47
rwwyeah. if -women were a core channel, my life would be a little easier. but it's not, and it makes sense that it's not, so...03:48
bazhangyou in -ops-monitor as well?03:48
rwwubuntu member cloak again03:48
rwwalso why I have ops in irc, read topic, proxy users...03:49
bazhangyeah you're in there.03:49
bazhangwell some channels are more equal than others I guess.03:49
bazhangstill at it03:51
rwwtime they spend figuring out #ubuntu-unregged is time they can't spend being clever and getting into #ubuntu (:03:51
bazhangheh03:52
bazhanghehehe (~DirtBAG22@92.251.185.4.threembb.ie third time now after the latest ban03:53
rwwI'm going afk and thus /parting. ttyl03:53
rwwindeed03:53
bazhangbobdroid appears to have a clone, or the other way round04:24
FlannelSigh.04:58
ryaxnbive been abused on #ubuntu-offtopic04:59
ryaxnbsomeone has banned me for no reason at all with no violation of guidelines.05:00
ryaxnband no rule-breaking, nada.05:00
ryaxnbFlannel, please explain.05:00
ryaxnbhello?05:01
Flannelryaxnb: While I was discussing your 15-minute quiet in query with you, it became apparent to me that you would continue to cause a disruption in #ubuntu-offtopic, so I removed that temptation from you.05:02
ryaxnb:/05:02
ryaxnbFlannel, i already promised i would not monologue.05:02
ryaxnband what exactly is a disruption?05:02
ryaxnbFlannel, i have made every effort to cooperate with you.05:03
Flannelryaxnb: No one cares about flashlights, no one was discussing flashlights.  I never thought this would be possible, but you actually disrupted your own topic (about iphones vs droids) with a flashlight image.05:03
ryaxnbFlannel, i will continue to make every effort to cooperate with you.05:03
Flannelryaxnb: I appreciate that.05:04
ryaxnbFlannel, now, you need to talk about exactly what rule or principle of the channel i violated.05:04
ryaxnbany other ops can join in too.05:05
ryaxnband i was being perfectly mature for the most part, i got frusturated for a bit because frankly, i still dont understand what rule i violated and youre ban message says "you should now better" but i really dont.05:06
ryaxnbi apologize for that.05:06
Flannelryaxnb: Please come back in 24 hours and we can have this discussion.  I think we'll have a more productive discussion after you've had some time away from the situation to reflect.05:06
ryaxnbFlannel, this is not going to work if you treat me like this.05:06
Flannelryaxnb: For the record, "you should know better" is just the default message in the script I use.  That wasn't conscious on my part.05:07
ryaxnbFlannel, monologuing was a mistake. however, i wasnt aware that it was against the rules, i should apologize for monologuing and i will now.05:08
Flannelryaxnb: As I said before, let's have this very same discussion tomorrow.05:08
ryaxnbFlannel, i will not accept that, simply because i am very calm right now.05:09
ryaxnbFlannel, i understand what i did was a mistake.05:09
ryaxnbFlannel, i cant be any more calm then this. if you base your opinion of my atitude on my inappropiate comment in my PM, youre misreading me05:11
ryaxnb:)05:12
ryaxnbwhat makes you think i am not calm now?05:12
ryaxnbbecause for the record, i have admitted my mistake, apologized for it, and am ready to talk about it.05:12
IdleOneryaxnb: Please come back in 24 hours.05:13
ryaxnbIdleOne, you need to explain this...05:13
IdleOneok05:13
Flannelryaxnb: I've already said, I don't feel comfortable discussing it until tomorrow.05:13
IdleOnethere you go ^^^05:13
ryaxnbi would love to know why.05:14
bazhangryaxnb, please come back in 24hrs05:14
ryaxnbthere is absolutely no way i will be calmer tommorow, and your job as an op is to resolve disputes as efficently as possible.05:14
IdleOneryaxnb: you continuing to try and discuss this with Flannel when he has said 3-4 times now that you will have to come back tomorrow is only going to aggravate the situation05:14
ryaxnbIdleOne, i am aware of that.05:15
IdleOneso stop now05:15
IdleOnecome back tomorrow05:15
IdleOne:)05:15
bazhangthere is no "on demand"05:15
IdleOnehave a good night05:15
Flannelryaxnb: From my (and others') experience, things work out better if there's some time before the discussion05:15
ryaxnbat this point, i must stand up for myself, because no one has told me what rule i violated, and its only fair i know05:15
IdleOneryaxnb: the common sense rule that is in the /topic05:16
IdleOnecommon sense says: Don't talk to yourself in front of a crowd of people.05:16
ryaxnblast i checked, many many people were responding.05:16
IdleOneyou do it a lot. Now please come back tomorrow05:16
Flannelryaxnb: I already said when you came in: it became apparent to me that you would continue to be disruptive in #ubuntu-offtopic05:16
ryaxnbwhy?05:17
Flannelryaxnb: Tomorrow.05:17
ryaxnbbasically, im not going to let go.05:17
ryaxnbit is simply not fair to you or me to continue this way05:17
Flannelryaxnb: then we're at an impasse.05:17
macobecause this is at least the 3rd time ive seen you just go off on a tangent and clog up the channel with random chatter, and i dont even pay close attention to that channel so its probably happened even more times05:17
macoyou're a serial offender05:18
ryaxnbmaco, i have never gotten any warning before this :/05:18
ryaxnbso i didnt know it was an issue :/05:18
bazhangmany complaints05:18
IdleOneryaxnb: I have made comments about your monologues05:18
ryaxnbnever an official warning, so i had no idea.05:18
bazhangofficial?05:18
IdleOnewhy does everything have to be "official"?05:18
ryaxnbi treat you as chat participlants... i imagine most do.05:19
macodo we need it in writing with a notary now?05:19
bazhangany one in there can say they hope you stop05:19
ryaxnbwhen you complain, its like atomicspark complaining.05:19
ryaxnbits feedback i attempt to use.05:19
ryaxnbnot a warning.05:19
ryaxnb:)05:19
IdleOneJordan_U: be with you ina minute05:19
Flannelryaxnb: I will not be responding to anything else from you until tomorrow.  I recommend that everyone else here do the same.  You're not making it any better by being pushy here.05:20
ryaxnbim not being pushy, you are.05:21
Jordan_UWas just going to mention that tangentcollision in #ubuntu might be a troll, but I think that's less likely from his more recent posts.05:21
ryaxnbyou are requiring me to wait for something i did not even know i was doing .05:21
ryaxnbanyway, the bottom line is this: i had NO IDEA this was  a problem until now, and suddenly, during a minor incident, in which at least one other person was discussing it with me, you ban me out of the blue.05:22
ryaxnbthat is out-of-line, in my opinion.05:23
Flannel!appeals05:23
ubottuIf you disagree with a decision by an operator, please first pay #ubuntu-ops a visit. If you are still unhappy, please see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/AppealProcess for the steps you should take. 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.05:23
ryaxnbfrankly, i am not appealing.05:24
bazhangryaxnb, please /part05:24
ryaxnbi am going to visit here often until this is resolved to my satisfaction.05:24
IdleOneryaxnb: part now before you get banned from here also05:24
ryaxnbyou are being unresponsible ops and your answer is to kick me? that is unfair to say the least.05:25
ryaxnbfunkyHat, answer me now,.05:31
bazhangryaxnb, its been five minutes05:32
ryaxnbthere is simply no way this is fair.05:32
ryaxnbi know that :)05:32
bazhangcome back in 24 hrs05:32
ryaxnbis that the party line now?05:32
bazhang?05:32
Flannel"Mom, can I borrow the car?" No.  "Dad, Can I borrow the car?"05:33
* mneptok backs over a flashlight and a smartphone06:19
elkyHe's correct though. His attitude isn't at all appealing.07:51
