PiciArgh. I put information about Maverick in #ubuntu+1 in the topic and all of a sudden people are asking more Maverick questions in #ubuntu than they were before.19:02
jribPici: I'm not sure what would surprise me more: that that didn't help people get to the right place for maverick questions or that people actually read the topic19:12
ubottuIn ubottu, MichealH said: !join is Please dont activate one of my factoids or type the channelname into the channel because it will disrupt the channel. On most clients you can just type /join #channel and you will join it, Thanks!19:21
Picio.O19:22
IdleOneHow is that helpful?19:22
knomepeople are abusing the !lang factoids19:23
knomejoin, type !lang every time19:23
IdleOneahh I see19:24
knomethe text probably needs tweaking, but +1 for the factoid itself19:24
IdleOneI would suggest perhaps a factoid about how to add a channel to autojoin19:25
IdleOneor a link to a wiki that explains19:25
knomethat would work as well, but for people who only sporadically use u channels, or use the freenode chat, that does not just completely work19:26
IdleOnetrue19:26
IdleOneWell if the same user is doing it 10 times a day I can see how it would be annoying19:27
IdleOneif it is sporadic... :)19:28
knomewell, there are a few users in #xubuntu doing that19:28
knomeor was, until the got noticed about it enough times19:28
knomeso, should i ask the poster to work on the factoid and ask about something specific from him?19:32
knome(he's from #xubuntu)19:32
knomecan also ask him to join here, if you want19:32
IdleOneI am really not sure that factoid is needed.19:33
IdleOnebut as it was submitted, it is not very clear.19:33
knomeas i said, i'm +1 for the factoid :)19:33
knomeit's not that it's totally useless and not that the factoid DB would fill up and no more factoids could get in ;)19:34
IdleOneagreed, well it isn't up to me to decide what factoids get accepted.19:38

MichealHSorry about that20:37
MichealHI was going to like to the ubuntu manual in !patience ?20:37
MichealH*link20:37
MichealHIs that a good Idea?20:37
IdleOnethere is already a !manual factoid20:38
MichealH*Ahh Okay20:38
MichealHBut we could add "You also could look at the Ubuntu Manual - www.ubuntu-manual.org20:39
MichealHTo the end?20:39
IdleOne I suppose so.20:40
knomeor "try searching url, url, url or !manual20:40
MichealHCan I send an idea of what I think should be added?20:41
IdleOneof course20:41
IdleOneall ideas are always welcome20:41
MichealH!no patience is Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. While you wait, try searching https://help.ubuntu.com , http://ubuntuforums.org , http://ubuntu.stackexchange.com or look at the !manual factoid.20:42

MichealHI added commas insated of "url or url or url"20:42
MichealHWhat do you think?20:43
IdleOneThe manual factoid is usually given to users who clearly demonstrate a lack of even the basic functions/commands20:44
IdleOnebut one of the Powers that be will make a decision20:45
MichealHIf its a easy question like "How do I mount a partition" and they keep going the !manual section will come in handy20:46
IdleOnethat is why there is a factoid for almost everything. !mount for example. We can't always point a user to the manual.20:47
MichealHWell, that20:48
MichealHI understand what you are saying20:48

jussithe reason its or iirc, is because some cients suck at parsing url's with commas20:51

jussihrrr20:52
jussihrm. but still, not really liking the manual in there right now20:53
IdleOnewell the "or" doesn't have to be changed but the question I am asking myself is !manual really an appropriate link to give to a user who is being not so patient.20:53
jussiIdleOne: exactly my pint20:53
jussipoint even20:53
MichealHIdleOne: Its a good point20:54
IdleOnebesides we have a !manual so I would lean towards not adding it20:54
MichealHBut is any link Okay for a user who is inpatient?20:54
jussiI think we leave it for now20:54
MichealHOkay20:54
MichealHThanks20:54
IdleOneMichealH: yes, !patience is20:54
IdleOnejussi: where do I refer a user who would like to be an op ?20:59
IdleOnein an a ubuntu channel20:59
