[00:20] Pici, ikonia: I saw the hilight. Was it just a mistake, or do I need to read more of the scrollback? [00:25] mistake [00:52] ) [00:52] * :) [01:31] scott_ino called the ops in #ubuntu (Geert_Wilders) [01:32] Amaranth: that works, too [01:32] that shoulda been a ban [01:32] /lastlog shows a troll [01:33] Yeah, obvious troll [01:33] Don't want to waste a ban if he doesn't come back right away though [01:40] that was weird. FWIW: "Geert Wilders" is the name of a somewhat controversial dutch politician. [04:36] hi I was just wondering why there's no #ubuntu-men [04:41] wizzo: There was at one point at least. I don't think it ever had more than about three people in it though. [04:41] tonyyarusso: if we get more users can we have the channel running then? [04:42] I think that there's a pretty big cross section of people who use ubuntu and people who are men [04:42] we could have something here [04:42] wizzo: If you'd like, you could create an ##ubuntu-men (with two # marks) first, see how it goes, and if it seems worthwhile and gets a community behind it while following the Ubuntu IRC Guidelines, then we could transition such a thing into the namespace, yeah. [04:43] well that makes sense [04:43] alright thanks for your help [04:43] !guidelines | For reference [04:43] For reference: The guidelines for using the Ubuntu channels can be found here: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Guidelines [04:44] np [04:44] cool [05:09] tonyyarusso: I didn't think #ubuntu-men was ever used for any legit purpose and was just some troll response to #ubuntu-women (hence it being closed now). I could be way off on this though [05:12] nhandler: I think I saw it used reasonably maybe once or twice. Either way, if it has new management / leadership I don't think the past really matters all that much, and properly starting it outside of our namespace rather than just creating it within might be a nice trial I thought. [05:12] Mostly it was a troll thing, but not 100%, since people joined who weren't part of the initial setup. [05:13] I'm not sure it's fair to call creation of -men groups in response to -women groups trollish. I suspect there's a fair number of men who want somewhere to be special when there is prohibition of sexism in common areas, and women are special in -women. [05:13] Not saying Ubuntu needs such a group, but I've seen any number of them created over the past couple of decades. [05:14] And I believe they tend to improve the sense of equality and lack of sexism in common channels. [05:14] persia: I wish their intentions were that noble ;) [05:14] Yeah, well, I can't talk about specifics: just wanted to make sure it wasn't a blanket reflex response to the creation of mens groups. [05:15] nhandler: i think it's unfair for you to assume you know every person's intentions [05:15] I'm cautious by default of a group which is inspired by the horrid situation we find ourselves in where only 95% of the community is male. [05:15] persia: Nope. I have no issue trialing this (especially outside of our namespace). I just want to make sure that there is an actual and legit purpose behind the channel (which will depend on the founder) [05:15] nhandler, Makes sense. [05:15] mneptok: I would never assume such a thing [05:16] elky: it's horrid if it is planned or expected. the demographics of Ubuntu usership are neither. [05:16] elky, I completely understand your caution: that said, I've seen some groups (especially related to non-technical non-profit communities) where the simple creation of a mens group that sends the "it's OK to be a man, but don't assume everyone is, except here" message helps the general situation. [05:18] persia, I might agree if it were not for the whole 95% part. [05:18] * persia is also not advocating #ubuntu-men, just wanting to make sure it's not reflex-dead, from a belief that a well-managed one ends up having similar goals and utility to -women [05:18] And the assumption that to "be a man" one must be as opposite to "a woman" as possible. [05:18] * persia goes off-channel to have an interesting debate about the 95% part [07:00] [Screamo] is trolling in #ubuntu [07:01] thanks, will keep an eye on him [07:01] Too late for that... [07:02] heh [07:04] -[Screamo](wearethesi@should.have.tried.shellium.org)- i was having a convo with someone just throwing around some good old healthy critacism and you ban me :\ [07:11] I remember a long time ago, when @lark worked.. what happened to it? [07:11] lart [07:11] disabled [07:12] Even in ubuntu-offtopic? It was fun [07:12] all fun is outlawed [07:13] lol darn [07:19] In ubottu, robojake said: !nopassword is How To Create a Passwordless / Guest Login see - http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=513820&highlight=shadow - BEWARE USER!

[07:35] changes nick every two seconds too, just to be annoying [07:36] * jussi waits for the next ops call [07:37] its nice though that when I joined the channel he quit... [07:37] argh, medibuntu is down [07:42] came and gone from -reviews, being insulting. I'm not going to bother with an ops call there, as /part has already happened [07:50] Why am I still banned [07:51] woa [07:51] the graphics in this room is good [07:52] Hoober, making problems in multiple channels, I'd guess [07:52] I am banned from 1 channel [07:52] 3 actually [07:52] the ubuntu-women [07:53] 3 [07:53] what how? [07:53] i thought we cleared this up like months ago [07:53] or 1 month at best [07:54] here let me quote the message for you [07:54] "[INFO] You are banned from this channel." [07:54] August 7th [07:55] So what we up to anyway? [07:55] 10/13 [07:56] my birthday is tomorrow [07:56] I am 19 right now but almost 20! [07:57] My cake will be an Angel Food Cake with frosting/topping and cherry on top [07:58] Hoober, was there something else you needed? [07:58] birthday presents will likely include: 1 Fallout New Vegas and 1 Draw on the monitor [07:58] will you throw a party for me [07:58] I am giving you a day's warning in advance [07:59] I think a couple of you are my friends [08:00] It shouldn't be too hard. you have OP [08:00] ObviousPower [08:00] Hoober, please read the channel topic here, thanks. [08:00] or whatever [08:00] k read it [08:00] so what do you think? [08:01] is this a topic for off-topic [08:01] I figured you ladies and gentlemen have the power to make my birthday party official [08:01] it is just a neat little request [08:02] Hoober, this is not a social channel [08:02] um [08:02] Capitalist? [08:02] But Ubuntu is for attracting a community [08:02] this is the one stop shop for friends [08:02] Hoober, and your behavior lends no great confidence to your being allowed back into #ubuntu [08:03] i can already go to ubuntu [08:03] you mean ubuntu women [08:04] do you even keep track of the history ? :( [08:04] my history I mean [08:05] i will give you a few minute to let your memory catch up. [08:06] odd. the ban tracker has you as banned there. [08:06] whoever unbanned me didn't fix the records [08:06] i can't remember who.. but it was probably Flannel or someone [08:07] doesn't your log say who my custom service representative was [08:08] yep unbanned there [08:08] well i am heading to off-topic to chat with the rest of the homies [08:09] bizarroid. #bansearch shows it, but bantracker shows the opposite [08:09] err @ [08:15] yep back to trolling -ot [08:15] suicide bombers [08:18] Hello. Did someone decide to unban Hoober from #ubuntu-offtopic for some odd reason, is he ban-evading, or is my memory going wonky? [08:19] unbanned it seems [08:19] * tonyyarusso apparently had him on ignore [08:19] bad tonyyarusso :( [08:19] I know :( [08:19] he was told explicitly not to do that kind of thing or the ban would be much longer [08:19] must have been annoying somewhere else and I didn't bother to -channel [08:20] his comments are clearly upsetting folks [08:21] He's one of those borderlines that toggles between normal topics and insanity :( [08:21] mostly the latter [08:46] he was warned clearly about not trolling again when the ban was removed. [08:48] I'm too involved to act now too. [08:50] Hoober: you've banned from #ubuntu-offtopic, you just admited you where trolling it earlier [08:50] fuck you. fuck you in the ass. thats right you are such pieces of shit for not looking at my side but only what you could interpret a person's motives having to be to have my side [08:50] shut the fuck up i quit [08:50] you ruined [08:50] you ruined my respect [08:50] you don't do this to me [08:50] you didn't need to start [08:50] bye [08:50] i had real times [08:50] fuck yourselves [08:50] and your language will not progress this any futher [08:51] the channel will be a simpler and easier place without him [08:51] Such a loss. That valuable contribution will be sorely missed. [08:51] I was quicker to type elky [08:51] No, I refrained since I had engaged him. [08:52] (no great loss comment) [08:52] Ah. [08:55] now recieving "threats" from hoober in pm that the Linux community will know of this outrage [08:55] just ignoring it now after I drectred him back in here to discuss it reasonably [09:19] Now he's returned as hoober_ to PM me. [09:19] Nice name Melissa. When you said predator that hurt my feelings. Did you mean a predator like the alien versus predator? [09:19] Creeeeeeepy. [09:20] I've already told him to not discuss it in pm [09:20] that's what this channel is for [09:21] He's not taking silence so well.
