bazhangsure he knows02:47
IdleOnehe also knows how to use the bot02:50
IdleOneor did he forget that he asked for lubottu to be rejoined to -sa02:50
bazhangI helped him set up a channel. he certainly knows02:51
IdleOneWinstonSmith: can we help you?02:52
S4ryHey02:52
IdleOneS4ry: gimme a moment please02:52
S4ry'Sup02:52
S4ryTyt02:52
WinstonSmithups no sry :|02:52
IdleOneS4ry: I would like to know why you are asking what the arabic channel is if you already know. I also would like to know why you told me to chill and why you seemed to be mouthing off to bazhang when you told him you were chatting in #ubuntu02:54
IdleOneyou know the rules of #ubuntu02:54
IdleOneI don't understand what you are trying to accomplish02:54
IdleOneCould you please explain?02:55
S4ryIdleOne, I never once know about #ubuntu-arabic02:55
S4rySo , you people assumed that i did02:55
S4rythats way i said IdleOne Chill02:56
S4rySimple , you're though was wrong02:56
IdleOneS4ry: ok I will take your word that you did not know about #ubuntu-arabic but your attitude towards me and bazhang seemed combative02:56
IdleOnevery not Ubuntu02:56
bazhangS4ry, what channel did I help you set up02:56
S4rybazhang, that was ubuntu-sa02:57
S4ryI was asking about a General Support channel02:57
S4ryubuntu-sa is my loco team channel02:57
bazhangS4ry, okay. just fyi: #ubuntu is for support only.02:58
IdleOneS4ry: http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#channellist this list will help you.02:58
S4rybazhang, i know02:58
macogenerally, regional loco channels DO provide support for users of their local language02:58
S4ryguest what guys  .. i never even knew about the ubuntu-offtopic02:59
persia(although there are also a number of language-specific support channels that span geography)02:59
S4rythanks IdleOne02:59
bazhangS4ry, great. now you do02:59
S4rybazhang, :)02:59
S4rybazhang, do i still have that 2 chance !02:59
bazhangS4ry, what?03:00
S4rymaco, you mean i can join ubuntu-Kuwait or Egy03:00
macoif i wanted help with ubuntu in japanese, i would join the japanese loco's channel even though i'm in the US, for example03:01
macopersia will now laugh because he knows how rusty my japanese is03:01
bazhangheh03:02
S4ryMmm03:02
IdleOneS4ry: I understand ilovefairuz is explaining to you the differences between #ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic. I apologize if I caused any confusion.03:02
IdleOneS4ry: it is important that we follow channel rules and I just wanted you to understand them so we don't have problems in the future03:02
* persia laughs more at the assumption of laughter than at the language skills03:03
S4ryWell , i remember once on ubuntu-sa a person joined , Right .. then one of the founder asked if he is a member ? and if he is no he should leave according to Ubuntu rule or something03:04
persiaThat's the sort of thing we like to see reported to #ubuntu-irc03:04
bazhangand nothing to do with the discussion at hand03:05
IdleOneS4ry: all Ubuntu irc channels should be accepting of every user. All users who join loco channels should learn the channel rules and follow them but membership should not be a requirement to be in a channel03:05
S4ryIdleOne, It's Alright :) , and i really appreciate it your attention03:05
S4ryIdleOne, noted03:06
ilovefairuzS4ry: You don't have to be a "member" of any thing to ask questions or help people on #ubuntu لا يتطلب منك ان تكون عضو لكى تسأل او تساعد أحد على03:06
IdleOneS4ry: Anyway now you have the list of ubuntu channels and you are welcome to ask for help and give help in #ubuntu. Please remember to be polite all the time.03:07
IdleOnesocial chat in #ubuntu-offtopic03:07
IdleOne:)03:07
ilovefairuzS4ry: and when you're given advice, it's usually for the good of everyone around, there are no ill intentions ولا يمقدم لك احد النصيحة الا بغرض الاستفاد للجميع، بلا نوايا سيئة03:07
bazhangilovefairuz, mind taking this to PM with S4ry ?03:08
S4ryThanks a bunch IdleOne :) .. excuse me if was out a line or my tone was seemed to be ..03:08
IdleOneno worries and thank you for understanding03:08
IdleOneilovefairuz: thanks for providing some translation :)03:09
ilovefairuzbazhang: i actually was but I thought I'd bring it here to save repetition for anyone involved :)03:09
bazhangnot really an issue for here imo03:09
IdleOneok now both of you get out :)03:10
IdleOneheh03:10
ilovefairuzlol cheers03:10
S4ry:D03:10
S4ryThanks again Y'all03:10
S4rySee ya03:10
IdleOnelater03:11
S4ry:)03:11
bazhanganyone checking wombatguy in -ot?03:30
funkyHatbazhang: what did he say that was off?03:40
bazhang<wombatguy> and a funnel and some duct tape03:41
bazhangafter atomic spark said : I need a beer and a woman03:41
IdleOnejust sounded icky03:41
IdleOneand not right03:41
funkyHatOh, I missed AtomicSpark's comments so I didn't make any sense of it :/03:42
WinstonSmithexcuse me is it possible to give a suggestion to corrct04:10
WinstonSmithcorrect* the bot-help for portuguese?04:10
WinstonSmitheg !pt04:10
WinstonSmithor am i in the wrong channel?04:11
persiaYou can give a suggestion here, although they are typically given in #ubuntu-irc04:11
WinstonSmithok !pt04:11
WinstonSmith!pt04:11
ubottuPor favor, use #ubuntu-br para ajuda em português. Para a comunidade local portuguêsa, #ubuntu-pt. Obrigado.04:12
WinstonSmithPor favor, use #ubuntu-br para ajuda em português. Para a comunidade local portuguêsa,faça "/join #ubuntu-pt". (sem as aspas) Obrigado04:12
WinstonSmithi just noticed that it didnt have the join command in it so for a newbie its not really helpful04:13
WinstonSmithok thanx ppl keep up the good work & have a nice day04:13
* persia would probably add another space between portuguêsa, and faça04:14
persiaAlso, is 'faça "..." ' typical usage to ask to run a command?04:15
* persia has more portuguese vocabulary than either grammar or usage04:15
WinstonSmithyes right space is missing and the verb fazer is to do04:16
persiaRight.  Just unsure of the idiom.04:16
WinstonSmithim german myself persia but ive lived in pt for 25 years so grammar is ok ;)04:17
persiaSo wanted to make sure it was a polite and common way to tell folks to execute commands.  Compare to e.g. ... o tipo de04:17
persiaI believe you :)  Just wanted to double-confirm.04:17
WinstonSmithyou could add por favor faça eg please do04:18
* persia can't change it, but belives folks who can will read this in backscroll.04:18
persia"por favor faça" sounds better to me :)04:18
bazhangWinstonSmith, care to suggest an edit?04:19
WinstonSmithok i hope they do cause i just had somebody coming into #ubuntu asking for help i did the !pt thing and he/she started to type just #ubuntu-br to no avail of course04:19
bazhangie !factoid is <reply> etc etc etc etc04:19
WinstonSmithbazhang, could you tell me how to do that04:20
bazhangI just did04:20
WinstonSmithok sry was typing :|04:20
bazhanghehe04:20
WinstonSmithso i do !pt is blabla?04:21
WinstonSmithor give me a link to read up...love manuals04:21
persiaYes.  Precisely that.04:22
bazhang!usage04:22
ubottuHi! I'm #ubuntu-ops's favorite infobot, you can search my brain yourself at http://ubottu.com/factoids.cgi - Usage info: http://ubottu.com/devel/wiki/Plugins#Using04:22
bazhanglast link WinstonSmith04:22
WinstonSmithok cheers can i suggest that on #ubuntu too so ill stop cluttering your channel?04:23
bazhangWinstonSmith, best in /msg with ubottu04:23
WinstonSmithok will do you keep up the good work ;)04:23
WinstonSmithcya04:23
bazhangit'll then be forwarded here04:23
ubottuIn ubottu, WinstonSmith said: !pt is Por favor, use #ubuntu-br para ajuda em brasileiro. Para entrar no canal por favor faça "/join #ubuntu-br" sem as aspas. Para a comunidade local portuguêsa, #ubuntu-pt. Obrigado.04:31

persiaBut that just feels better to me: I could be mistaken.04:39

IdleOneTELL0 has quit (Quit: sudo rm ~/) already set a forward to here06:55
funkyHatIdleOne: you sould remove your ban where you missed the *, banlist will fill up!06:58
IdleOnewill do06:59
XavierdarknessI'm banned from #ubuntu?07:10
FlannelXavierdarkness: you're forwarded here from #ubuntu07:11
XavierdarknessYes07:11
XavierdarknessThen it says I'm banned07:11
FlannelXavierdarkness: Sure, you're banned from #ubuntu.  It's semantics, and not terribly important.07:12
FlannelXavierdarkness: Do you have any idea why you might be banned?07:12
XavierdarknessNot really, I never said a word in there.07:12
FlannelXavierdarkness: Your part message: su mount -o,rw /system rm -rf /07:12
XavierdarknessOh. Crap07:13
XavierdarknessThat I changed that...07:13
XavierdarknessThought*07:13
FlannelXavierdarkness: We'd obviously appreciate it if you did :)07:13
XavierdarknessIt was meant as a joke for Droid Users. Seeing as that command would just annoy us. It's fixable for us. Sorry about that.07:14
FlannelXavierdarkness: Sure.  Please be more careful in the future.  I've removed your forward.07:15
XavierdarknessK, it's "Droid" now.07:15

TELL0wich one?07:32
TELL0what message?07:32
bazhangTELL0, the one when you quit07:32
bazhangIdleOne, that bilgates spamming earlier? that was prabinmetals ban dodging again07:34
IdleOnebazhang: I'm not sure07:34
TELL0how can I go to #ubuntu?07:34

bazhangtell0 is still banned in -ot07:38
jussiemma: is there something we can help you with today?07:38
bazhangperhaps @151.82.*07:39
elkynah, the last in your list is 8107:39
IdleOneemma: Did you want to discuss that situation in here?07:47
IdleOneif not that is fine.07:47
bazhangelky, right. tough one then07:47
FlannelJust ban 82 and 81, 2 is better than 256!07:48
IdleOneemma: ok I'll assume you don't want to talk here. I am going to ask that you part the channel please.07:48
elkyFlannel, except we don't know if the next one he'll come back on will be 83 or 9207:49
emmaIs there anything else that I can help you with?07:52
bazhangemma, did you need something here?07:53
emmaNo. I was assisting you.07:53
emmaIs there anything else you might need?07:54
bazhangif there is nothing you need help with, please part the channel07:54
IdleOneemma: not at this time07:54
IdleOnethank you for your help.07:55
emmaIf there is nothing else you need help with, I"m going to have to ask you to excuse me because there are certain channels I do not allow to idle in my client.07:55
bazhang?07:55
persiaHave a good day emma.07:55
emma\o07:55
bazhangany clue what that was about?07:56
IdleOneyes07:56
persiaShe generally tries to be helpful, especially with folks new to Ubuntu, or those who feel put-upon.07:56
IdleOnehttp://pastebin.ca/GKE-nGQh07:56
IdleOnemsg me for pass07:56
bazhangno thanks07:56
elkypersia, it's not all bunnies and rainbows.08:02
elkyThe merry band of followers could do with accepting that the Code of Conduct is an essential part of Ubuntu rather than rebelling against its existence.08:03
persiaYeah, but the excessive helpfulness seemed to be the explanation for the join, apparent confusion, and departure, rather than the rest of the Club Ubuntu bits.08:04
elkyNah, I'd say xavierdarkness or droid|droid are in the merry band,.08:05
elkyor, if not before, are now.08:05
bazhangylmf os seems to have #ubuntu as the default irc site08:49
persiaEasy enough to do if one fails to take sufficient care with branding.08:52
bazhangubuntu in Chinese, made to look like xp08:52
persiaMight be worth trying to create one shared master source of information about the default, and have all the clients depend on that, so that it7s changed in one place (making it easy for downstream)08:53
ikoniahello kron|k10:51
ikoniaoff to the gym please keep an eye out for ranjan ban dodging and goat-re was kicked as chipped_cpu earlier10:56
ikoniakron|k: if you don't need anything please check the topic of the channel10:56
ikonia!idle | kron|k10:56
ubottukron|k: Please keep in mind that this channel is for operator/abuse questions only; we ask you to part when you have no further business here in order to keep track of users with pending inquiries.10:56
bazhangkron|k, you've been ban forwarded here11:07
bazhang#ubuntu: 2010-08-27T05:56:08 <kron|k> su mount -o, rw /system rm -rf /11:07

Seeker`hmm12:20
Seeker`weren't all ops going to get ops in here?12:20
gnomefreakwhat do you mean? we dont op automaticly12:21
gnomefreakwe do voice12:21
Seeker`I mean the ability to set mode +o on yourself in here12:21
MamarokI am not an op here12:21
gnomefreaki think i am12:22
* persia wouldn't want to be12:22
Seeker`Yes, I thoght at one point it was decided that all ops would gain that ability12:22
gnomefreakoh i see what you mean now12:22
persiaI suspect any op who wants it can get it, but given that it's all ops here, there's not usually much point.12:22
Seeker`persia: there are occasions where it is only a couple of ops and a bad troll active in here12:23
Mamarokpersia: well, the point would be that we could all kick idlers12:23
gnomefreakwhy would everyone need to be, we dont really need to be an op in here that often12:23
Seeker`and none of them have the ability to op up in here12:23
Mamarokor trolls, indeed12:23
persiaMost leave when asked, for fear of repurcussions in other channels.12:23
Seeker`gnomefreak: what harm does it do giving +o powers to all of the ops in here?12:24
Mamarokbut we have an op call in here as well, so setting all ops as admins is not really necessary12:24
persiaAnd it's rare that anyone needs to op.12:24
Seeker`daytime UTC isn't too bad12:24
Seeker`its morning australia time that is a pain12:25
gnomefreakmy point has been made and i didnt have to answer :)12:25
persiaI think that if we discover a $time_of_day with no regular ops, it makes sense to force one of the folks usually around then to be granted that, but otherwise...12:25
Seeker`just don't think it makes sense to have to rely on a limited list of people being here12:25
gnomefreakthis should be brought up to the IRCC if it is that important to you12:26
persiaisn't elky usually about then?  Or mneptok?12:26
gnomefreaki used to see elky in the morning here12:26
Seeker`when, in theory, all ops should be able to be trusted to have some common sense with +o12:26
Seeker`elky works12:26
persiaSeeker`, If *you* want +o in here, ask the IRCC.  Don't force it on the rest of us :)12:27
Seeker`persia: its not a power you *have* to use :P12:27
gnomefreakseeker what channels are you +o in?12:27
Seeker`#ubuntu, #ubuntu-offtopic and #ubuntu-uk last time I checked12:27
gnomefreakk yeah bring it up to IRCC but i guess i am missing the importance of it12:28
Seeker`its not life and death or anything :P12:28
gnomefreakthat would be like saying "i should be +o in all #u channels"12:28
Seeker`hardly12:29
* gnomefreak would have thought +o in +1 would make more sense but please bring it up to IRCC they will decide12:29
Seeker`almost nothing happens in +112:30
gnomefreak1 last thing, i wouldnt use the excuse that there are times when no op in around12:30
Seeker`I have been here on several occasions where there was a persistent troll, and noone capable of +o in here12:31
Tm_TI've seen several times noone being active at all when there's been persistent troll...12:32
gnomefreakit needs to be done through IRCC there isnt one around so what for 1 or email them12:32
persiaTm_T, At what time of day?12:32
Mamarokthere still is an ilder here, so what am I supposed to do, do the ops call forthat everytime?12:32
gnomefreakMamarok: who is it12:32
persiaUnless there's a supplicant, idlers can wait a bit.12:32
gnomefreakMamarok: normally ask nicly for them to /part12:32
bazhang* [ne0|Penguin] (~John-Smit@122.177.15.216): John-Smith jungli ban evading in -ot12:33
Mamarokgnomefreak: well, open your eyes, there is only one person not voiced12:33
Mamarokall ops have voice, no voice = idle12:33
gnomefreakMamarok: that does not mean they do not blong but i guess it is more important than ban evading. brb12:33
Mamarokwhatever...12:34
gnomefreak!idle Bryanstein12:34
* Mamarok goes idling12:34
Tm_Tpersia: different times, there hasn't been one particular time of day I have seen being more problem than another really12:34
jussiBryanstein: has permission to idle, as he is a shellium admin12:34
gnomefreakah12:34
Mamarokwell, give him voice then, so we can identyfy idlers easier12:34
persiaShould folks with permission to idle be voiced, so as to avoid confusion?12:34
MamarokI would say so12:34
Seeker`+112:35
gnomefreakjussi: they make a good point12:35
jussiMamarok: its an exception. and no, the people with +v are that that so people coming in can identify ops.12:35
persiaAh.  This makes sense.12:35
* jussi diappears12:35
gordwouldn't it make more sense if the the ops were op'ed so you could identify them as ops?12:35
Mamarokwhatever, at least tell everybody who is allowed to idle then12:35
Mamarokby mail, so nobody misses the announcements12:36
jussiwe have, several times12:36
Mamarokgord: :)12:36
* gnomefreak goes to patrol12:36
Mamarokjussi: well, I have never seen that name before, and I read all mails I am supposed to get12:36
Seeker`jussi: any comments on people getting +o in here?12:39
jussiSeeker`: email the ircc.12:39
Mamarokbureaucracy when you hit...12:43
* Mamarok goes back to work12:43
persiaemailing the ircc isn't bureaucracy, it's transparency12:43
ubottuaeon-ltd called the ops in #ubuntu (Dilberto)12:51
ikoniabazhang: niko is on the job now12:52
ikoniaat a staff level12:52
ubottuFloodBot1 called the ops in #ubuntu-ops-monitor (repeated abuse from dilberto)12:53
gnomefreakikonia: for who?12:53
ikoniajungli12:54
ikoniaenough is enough12:54
ikoniaa guy should not have 10+ bans across many channels, let alone in one12:54
bazhangikonia, thanks. gord re-banned the new nick/IP12:54
gnomefreakstaff has been on him pleanty of times12:54
ikoniaI saw12:54
ikoniano, they have tried to resolve his "issue"12:54
ikonianow I'm actually making a complaint (not against them, but against the user)12:55
ikonianormally a word from staff can sort the user out, but it's beyond that now12:55
gnomefreakother than they can make a wide ban there isnt much difference12:55
ikoniawell, it's up to them how they deal with it12:56
ikoniathey are here to support us, and I'm asking for a little support depending on how they suggest best handling it12:56
jpdssmallfoot- in -motu.13:00
bazhangugh13:00
jpdspersia: Look at that reaction time. ↑13:00
* gnomefreak confused but watches when i get back from smoke13:01
* persia is also confused13:01
persiaOh, reference to prior history with smallfoot- ?13:01
gnomefreaki assume so since he is in right place13:05
gnomefreakjrib is on top of just about everything13:07
gnomefreak:)13:07
* jrib has no idea what is going on :P13:08
bazhangoh a gnaa troll13:08
bazhangdilberto13:08
gnomefreakhes mine13:09
bazhanghe'll be klined soon enough13:09
gnomefreakgod i hope so13:10
gnomefreakisnt ljl still an op?13:15
bazhangnope13:15
gnomefreakoh13:15
gnomefreaklots of people have turned in thier ops in the past say year13:16
bazhangnot for a very long time now13:16
gnomefreaki think ljl's point is more of a repeat offender13:20
bazhanghe's inconsistent. sometimes he sticks up for serious trolls and claims op abuse13:21
gnomefreakof all people i wouldnt have expected that from him13:21
gnomefreakoh this is going to get bad13:24
bazhangnah13:24
gnomefreaki see what you mean13:24
bazhangSeeker`, just let it go13:25
gnomefreaksee whta i mean13:26
gnomefreakany op, he is just moving trhoug13:26
gnomefreakthrough13:26
bazhangjust waiting for dilberto in other channels13:26
ikoniawhat the devil is sudo gem install13:27
gnomefreakikonia: never heard of it13:27
gnomefreaki was wondering the same13:27
ikoniasome guys' just suggested it in #ubuntu where you can use --prefix to change package layouts ??13:27
ikoniathat seems impossible13:27
persiaIf you modify --prefix and rebuild from source, it works, but the results are very much unsupported.13:29
ikoniabut that's rebuilding it from source13:31
ikoniawhich is not what the guy was suggesting,13:31
ikoniaI think he was just talking nonsense13:31
jribikonia: gems is to ruby what cpan is to perl basically13:31
ubottuLjL called the ops in #ubuntu (MexicoLindo's quit message)13:32
bazhang(Quit: Haiti=Mierda)13:32
bazhanggnaa troll13:32
ikoniajrib: that makes even less sense that it can be installed with prefix options13:33
jribikonia: maybe he's talking about the gem packages?  no idea, didn't even read the original context13:33
persiajrib, Only more so, unfortuantely13:33
ikoniaI've done +r for 5 minutes to stop these hit and runs13:33
persiaikonia, gems are compiled on demand at runtime, and can be configured with --prefix at install time.13:34
ikoniajrib: maybe I'll have a look when I get chance13:34
gnomefreakikonia: isnt it just him?13:34
ikoniapersia: even through apt ?13:34
ikoniagnomefreak: scroll back suggests a few hit and runs13:34
ikoniaI'll remove it if you're not comfortable13:34
gnomefreakoh ok13:34
persiaikonia, gems through apt are odd beasts, and you *can* reconfigure what apt installs to live somewhere else, if you set your environment differently than default.13:35
ikoniaI'll have to have a look at that13:36
persiaIt's a painful mess.  If you look at it and develop a clear idea of how it should work, please publish widely.13:38
bazhang* MicrosoftBil (~prabinmet@151.83.223.174) has joined #ubuntu  need a good new ban for this guy14:45

gnomefreakim wathcing +1 atm15:24
gnomefreaki would rather wait to see what he does before acting15:25
bazhangjust in #ubuntu from what I'm in at least15:26
marienzcan you please prod me the next time you see jungli?15:26
gnomefreaki will if im here. hes been nothing but a pain15:27
bazhangmarienz, thanks! will do15:28
marienzalso, he is currently supposed to be banned everywhere ubuntu-related?15:28
gnomefreaki guess you are staff?15:28
marienzI'm staff, yes15:28
gnomefreakah15:28
bazhangyep :)15:28
bazhang  /msg ubottu staff15:28
marienzI'm currently planning to tell him to just stay out of #ubuntu and the #ubuntu-* namespace entirely, and that we'll start removing him from the network if he doesn't comply15:29
marienz(staff is best recognized by /whois-ing them and looking for a freenode/staff cloak)15:29
ikoniamarienz: apologies, earlier when talking to niko I called you Maria, it was a typo on my part, I had other stuff on my mind and wasn't concentrating15:50
ikoniaif niko mentions maria, I meant you15:50
Piciheh15:50
ikoniatoo many things, not enough brain cells15:51
ikoniamy fault15:51
marienzikonia: I was considering pointing that out, tbh (I get mistaken for female on irc pretty often but I think this is the first time someone munged my name like that)15:55
bazhanghehe15:55
ikoniamarienz: juggling too many things, my mistake. Sorry15:56
marienzno worries15:56
* gnomefreak cant juggle15:59
elkyThose pudgy gnommish hands make it hard to catch things16:05
gnomefreakwhy would you email the irc mailing list about wireless problems :(16:11
ikoniagnomefreak: maybe he wants ops in this channel ?16:12
gnomefreaki think it was jussi who answered but no it was about him not getting a wireless connection that he tried to set up16:13
ikonia</sarcasm>16:13
PiciIt was topylì16:13
gnomefreakah ok16:13
PiciI get emails all the time from LP's 'contact this person', but this was sent to the mailing list.. odd.16:14
bazhang* GuitarShredder (~prabinmet@151.81.227.210) has joined #ubuntu that failed16:19
bazhanghe got past the +b prabinmet*!*@*16:21
topyliPici: i finally got around to crratong a boiletplate reply this morning, to the LP support requests16:22
bazhangwould not including the ~ make a difference?16:22
topylipeople get polite answers now!16:22
elkybazhang, ha, the only other person in @151.8* is ljl16:23
bazhangelky, heh16:23
topyli@login16:24
ubottuThe operation succeeded.16:24
bazhangjust whack a mole then.16:24
topyli@btlogin16:24
Picitopyli: I'm going to steal it.16:24
topyliPici: just ask me for support and you'll have a copy in no time!16:26
elky"Dear Mister Topyli, please tell me how to get a perfect desktop setup"16:27
topyli"just copy mine! HTH, HAND"16:31
Picijrib: Not sure if you saw the conversation earlier, but thats the second time that hes enabled that script.17:04
jribPici: I saw, I'm in pm with him17:04
Picijrib: okay :)17:04
jrib:)17:04
Picijrib: What was the upshot with chrisbuntunerd?17:14
PiciI only ask because he has it enabled in -offtopic still.17:14
jribPici: he couldn't figure out how to make his script stop so he quit and rejoined.  He's trying to figure out how to make it work on a single channel though.  I advised him to test it after leaving #ubuntu or with a different account and warned him he would likely be banned if it happened again17:15
Picikron|k: You've been forwarded from #ubuntu to #ubuntu-ops, please fix your quit message.17:46
Picimarienz: around?18:23
marienzPici: yeah18:23
ubottuIn ubottu, grayhane said: that is no doubt18:24
Picimarienz: Looks like jungli is back, in #ubuntu-offtopic as John-Smith.  I haven't done anything yet.18:24
marienzyay18:24
marienzI'll talk to him18:24
topylimarienz: fyi, i already banned him once some time ago, for ban dodging as john-smith18:28
Picitopyli: I need to go to a meeting, could you take care of whatever is needed here?18:29
topyliPici: sure18:29
Picitopyli: I haven't banned him yet this time around.18:29
PiciThanks :)18:29
topylii'm sick, can't go anywhere :)18:29
marienzis there an appeals process jungli is supposed to be following but hasn't?18:32
IdleOne!appeals18:33
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.18:33
IdleOneand yes probably18:33
topylimarienz: he could try emailing the irc council18:33
marienzafaik redirecting him here again would be bad?18:33
IdleOnehis first option I believe has been burnt to the ground18:34
topylimarienz: i think he's pretty much done here, no progress18:34
marienzthat's what I thought, yes18:34
marienzI'll mention the council18:34
marienz(assuming that's ok with you folks, I don't really want to send him down a path he's already unsuccessfully tried)18:35
IdleOnemarienz: I seriously doubt he has tried the appeals process18:35
IdleOnebesides coming here and like topyli already said, no progress18:35
* marienz nods18:35
topylimarienz: no, he hasn't contacted the council18:36
* marienz nods18:36
ubottuIdleOne called the ops in #ubuntu-offtopic (chrisbuntunerd trolling/bad attitude)19:39
MichealHHello?19:53
mneptokyessss?19:54
MichealHSomeone in -offtopic is being plain annoying towards me19:54

MichealHYeah19:55
MichealHThanks19:55

rwwbazhang: "would not including the ~ make a difference?" ==> yes. the ban you set doesn't match him because it misses the tilde; you probably wanted *prabinmet!*@* .21:15

MichealHHello22:05
MichealHJust gotten abiuse from an op in -youth22:06
Seeker`which op?22:06
MichealHHe isnt an official op22:06
MichealHHe is zkreiess22:06
MichealH*zkreiesse22:07
MichealHDont Tell him off yet22:07
Seeker`never heard of him22:07
Seeker`what happeneed?22:07
MichealHHe had banned me and then said they had opped me to join a channel and not I am pera banned from all -youth channels22:08
MichealHHe is saying some bad things22:08
Seeker`sorry, that makes no sense22:08
MichealHHetricked me saying I was a op22:08
MichealH*He tricked me22:08
MichealHHe said I was a op22:08
MichealHAnd to join a channel so I did22:08
MichealHAnd now I am auto banned by ChanServ on entry22:09
MichealHAnd His reply:22:09
MichealH<zkriesse> Ha22:09
MichealH<zkriesse> That was a joke...22:09
MichealH<zkriesse> Like hell we'd let you op22:09
MichealHhe is a Ubuntu Memebr22:09
Seeker`which channel did he tell you to join?22:09
MichealH#ubuntu-youth-ops22:10
MichealHPlease22:10
MichealHHe is not afraid to ban me fromevery channel he can22:10
MichealHI need advice22:10
MichealHI am just shocked ect. at all this22:11
MichealHI need to go...22:11
FlannelI think #ubuntu-youth falls into #ubuntu-irc, not here.  We certainly aren't operators there.22:11
MichealHCan you passthis on to them22:11
MichealHI really needtogo22:11
MichealHCan this be dealt with by you?22:12
MichealHOr the IRC people22:12
FlannelMichealH: I suggest you go there the next time you're around.  It won't hurt to resolve it in a day instead of immediately22:12
MichealHOkay22:13
MichealHIts #ubuntu-irc right?22:13
FlannelMichealH: You'll need to get the operator(s) involved in -youth to join -irc to discuss it with you, which we can try and help with.22:13
FlannelMichealH: yes22:13
MichealHHe will make it worse22:13
MichealHI think Im just gonna have t accept that22:14
FlannelMichealH: I wouldn't be too sure.  Let's just see how it goes the next time you're around.22:15
MichealHOkay22:15
MichealHThanks (although im depressed)22:15
MichealHBye22:15
IdleOneFlannel: youth-ops auto bans anybody not on the access list22:15
IdleOneYou have been kicked from #ubuntu-youth-ops by ChanServ (You are not authorized to be on this channel)22:15
IdleOne* Cannot join #ubuntu-youth-ops (You are banned).22:15
FlannelIdleOne: Does that ban you from #ubuntu-youth as well?22:16
MichealHIt was a dummy channel?22:16
IdleOneno22:16
FlannelMichealH: Bye22:16
MichealHBye22:16
IdleOne-youth is auto voice but it does not ban you from -youth22:16
FlannelIdleOne: One wonders what the purpose of -youth-ops is then.22:17
FlannelSince it's obviously not to discuss your bans22:17
IdleOnejust for the ops I assume22:17
FlannelThe topic says "only youth ops zone here" (whatever that means, I must be out of touch with my vernacular).  It seems that -council is the place to go to discuss disputes.22:18
FlannelMichaelH is banned by cloak, and by nick.  I guess it's not enough to ban once anymore.22:20
IdleOneI believe Seeker` is making inquiries22:21
IdleOneI also joined to idle22:21
jpdsOh dear God.22:31
jpdsSeriously.22:31
Flannel*!*@* being +v is awesome, by the way!22:31
IdleOnemakes us all equal22:34
IdleOnewell except for those who have @ all the time22:34
IdleOnethey are more equal22:34
mneptoki thought it was a requirement that people that run channels in the #ubuntu namespace idle in -irc in order to ensure things run smoothly22:34
IdleOneit is22:35
topylii can't remember the wording, if it's "required" or "strongly recommnded". whatever, it's "smart" anyway22:39
charlie-tcarequired22:42
topyliFlannel: agreed, i like auto-voice :)22:42
charlie-tcaunless it has been changed. That is why I idle here. I am only an op in #xubuntu22:42
IdleOnexubuntu is a core channel so you are required to be here I believe22:48
FlannelThis whole thing is strange.  Apparently MichaelH had zkriesse as his mentor in the beginners team.22:49
charlie-tcaoh, yeah. that's right22:49
Seeker`I tihnk there should be a closer link between ops here an ops in other channels22:49
topyliwell at minimum, we should idle at -irc23:06
Seeker`I do, but there is a whole load of opping experience here, and there are a lot of groups starting up with no idea how to run channels23:06
topyliaye23:07
Piciinteresting.23:08
Seeker`Pici: hmm?23:08
PiciSeeker`: Just reading the scrollback here.23:09
IdleOnekron|k: can we help you?23:18
