Gumbyhi all.  I was banned awhile ago for making a joke/comment in the channel I was able to join awhile back, not sure why, but I appear to be banned again.  Is there any way of removing this ban?04:07
IdleOneGumby: you still around?04:57
GumbyIdleOne: yup05:01
IdleOneDo you recall why you were banned?05:01
GumbyI made a joke that was offtopic at a point when the channel was dead and talking all offtopic.  perhaps it lacked taste but there was no warning, just BAM!05:02
Gumbyit was months ago so I dont recall the actual comment and I have since bought a new laptop so I dont have the logs.  if necessary I could probably find the log from the old laptop05:02
IdleOneok, well the comment was indeed offtopic but it was also crude to say the least.05:02
IdleOneno need to dig up the log05:03
IdleOne!guidelines05:03
ubottuThe guidelines for using the Ubuntu channels can be found here: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Guidelines05:03
IdleOne!CoC05:03
ubottuThe Ubuntu Code of Conduct is a community etiquette document to which we ask all Ubuntu users to adhere, and can be found at http://www.ubuntu.com/community/conduct/ .  For information on how to electronically sign the CoC, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SigningCodeofConduct .05:03
IdleOnegoing to ask you to read those links and make sure you are familiar with them05:03
Gumbysure thing05:03

ikoniahi juk thanks for joining09:17
sentmenCan anyone help me?09:17
jukikonia: what you have to say to me?09:17
ikoniaI thought it would be easier to talk to you here for 2 minutes than explain how to use the private message system09:17
ikoniajuk: one second please09:17
ikoniasentmen: what's the issue09:17
ikoniajuk: I just wanted to ask why you called in ops  in #ubuntu+1 as I couldn't see an issue09:17
sentmenI'm running 10.4 and i can't get an working internet connection09:18
ikoniasentmen: you need to ask in the channel #ubuntu - why did you join this channel ?09:18
jukikonia: oh, now I said first my porblem and then i did !ops to get your atention, coz it's not much people in there and it's kind of inactive09:19
ikoniajuk: ok,  you do know that the !ops call is for emergencies, the operators are there to moderate the channel, not provide support on request09:20
ikoniajuk: you shouldn't use that call/trigger unless there is a genuine issue or emergency09:20
jukikonia: oh, i really didn't know that09:20
ikoniahow did you know about the !ops call ?09:20
jukikonia: no I know that this !ops thing is causing everyone get kindof buzzed, but never for me, i use irssi, dunno, i saw many people using it in channel but never get it in what cases it can be used?09:22
ikoniajuk: in future, please only use it if there is genuine emergency in the channel, not if you want support09:23
jukikonia: I got it, for support i don't call it, so is it used for when trols are coming?09:25

popey15:26:54 < dotwaffle> Any chance that this release, we could make an official channel called #ubuntu-release-quiet (or #ubuntu-release-library...) that's moderated up until the release happens? It'd be quite handy.15:30
popeyfrom #ubuntu-release-party..15:30
popeyI quite like that idea :)15:30
jussiwhat is the  purpose of it?15:33
popeyto announce the release without having to sit and watch the crap fly by15:34
popeyto have a channel where you can just idle along with a bunch of other people and know the only thing that will be said is "It's out!" and you can trust it15:34
popeyI suggested...15:34
popey15:28:41 < popey> well, we could have a channel that has everyone muted on entrace and have a bot which just looks for https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-announce/2010-October/000139.html15:34
popeybecause some people just dont like the constant noise that -r-p has, which I appreciate many do!15:35
jussipopey: Ive no issue with it, but someone needs to write the bot...15:35
jussior we could just do it that we allow ubottu to notice everychannel with "its out!!eleventyone!!111" :P :P15:36
popeyheh, that'd get the resources of ubottu reduced significantly as it gets kickbanned from every channel :)15:37
jussi*G*15:38
jussimind, would be simple enough to just op robbie in there and get him to say it when it goes out.15:38
* jussi wonders what Pici topyli and nhandler think?15:39
popeyyup, if you can get the release manager in on that, great!15:39
jussipopey: slangasek did it every other release in -r-p so why not.15:39
jussiI wonder what Robbie's irc nick is...15:40
popeyrobbiew15:40
jussiahh, nice :D15:40
jussilemme see what the others say, but Ive no issue with it.15:40
jpdsSurely that's skaet's role nowadays?15:41
jussiis robbie not release manager anymore?15:41

jussiyeah, riddell is for kubuntu15:46
Picihm.15:51
jussiPici: ?16:01
Picijussi: We should probably get ubottu or similar in -r-p too16:30
PiciI'm not sure how I feel about a new release-announce channel, still mulling it over.16:30
PiciI guess it couldn't hurt, as long as its set +m.16:32
ikonia12:45 -!- Irssi: Starting query in freenode with Freak_man16:33

IdleOnedon't be to hard on yourself16:34
ikoniaI was trying to do a last on freakman, but he appeared to join, ask a question then message me with "you fuck"16:35
ikoniaI was /away and idle at the time16:35
PiciI was just doing a lastlog too16:35
ikoniaxnothing similar in BT, just wondered if he had history16:36
IdleOnewas in query?16:39

IdleOneMorning phillw16:49
phillwhiyas, I'm real sorry about asking for help that should be RTFM, but I've successfully banned and kicked some one from #lubuntu-offtopic; trouble is I cannot get them back on16:50
IdleOnehehe16:50
IdleOnehow did you set the ban?16:51
ikonia#lubuntu-offtopic, this is another offtopic channel16:52
IdleOneJust for the record there are no RTFM questions17:02
jussiphillw: best to ask these questions in #ubuntu-irc17:21
st__someone banned me from #ubuntu? what's going on?18:43
IdleOnest__: gimme a minute to look it up18:44
IdleOnelooks like it has to do with your repeated off topic chatter in #ubuntu18:46
st__that's ridiculous, I'm barelly using this channel18:47
IdleOneok so when you are using it you are off topic a lot18:47
IdleOneyou are aware of #ubuntu-offtopic ?18:48
st__yes, but I never started offtipic discussions. why ban me form _support_ channel if some random op want to play thought police?18:49
IdleOnest__:  on October 2nd you were commenting on how the release date for 10.10 reeks of Soviets18:50
IdleOneyou were also given the !ot factoid by an op and continued to be off topic18:51
IdleOneThat is why you were banned.18:53
IdleOnest__: are you still here ?18:55
st__definitely. i want someone to unban meobviously18:56
IdleOneI understand that but I am not convinced you understand our channel policy18:57
st__I promise I will stick to technical issues and will not support off topic chat18:57
IdleOneoff topic comments or comments about your dislike of the channel rules are not for #ubuntu. If you can't follow those rules then you can't be in #ubuntu.18:58
IdleOnest__: I am going to take your word and I will lift the ban. Please familiarize yourself with https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines and http://www.ubuntu.com/community/conduct/18:59
IdleOneCan you please join #ubuntu to make sure the ban has been removed19:00
st__it was19:00
IdleOneyeah, your welcome :/19:01
PiciI knew he was going to be trouble.19:03
IdleOneI have seen him everyday for at least a week in #u but he hardly ever uses the channel19:04
IdleOnehe does help but always with an attitude...least that is how I read him19:04
IdleOneQueation: is giving a user !away when they change nick really needed? I understand if they have some away script that announces in channel but just changing from nick to nick|away?19:16
IdleOneI don't consider it !nickspam either if it is only one nick change every twelve hours or so19:17
PiciI'm not so sure I like that partybot message.19:33
IdleOneheh19:34
IdleOneevery release has it's OMG giant security hole hoax19:35
IdleOneunless that isn't a hoax19:35
IdleOnethen I am upset19:35
PiciITs supposed to be a joke.19:38
PiciI think.19:38
jpdsIT is a joke?19:39
PiciFeel free to throw !party at people20:35
IdleOneopening the channel 6 days in advance?20:36
PiciWe usually do.20:36
IdleOneahh ok20:36
