h00kSo, I'm not entirely sure the 'best' way to handle people that seemingly ignore instructions to direct them to their correct language room01:51
tonyyarussoh00k: I (and) others have occasionally resorted to a temporary banforward and hoping they figure out to rejoin.04:47
tonyyarussoReally, there's not a better option available.04:47

MindVirusFlannel: Gonna unban me now?06:56
FlannelMindVirus: it's not "If you enter #ubuntu-ops, then you get unbanned".  Would you like to discuss your ban?06:57
MindVirusFlannel: Sure.06:57
MindVirusI said "hookers".06:57
FlannelMindVirus: Do you know why you were banned?06:57
MindVirusThat wasn't even a complete sentence.06:57
MindVirusBecause I said "hookers"?06:57
FlannelNo06:57
MindVirusOh, it was one of those delay-bans.06:58
MindVirusFlannel: Why did I get banned?06:58
FlannelMindVirus: No, because you continued behaving poorly.06:58
MindVirusAnd I did that by saying "hookers", right?06:58
FlannelActually no.06:59
MindVirusWas it the sarcastic and whimsical "hankers" comment?06:59
FlannelIf I had to pick a single line, that lead most directly to your ban, it would have to be the "h**kers" comment.06:59
MindVirusSeriously?06:59
FlannelMindVirus: yes.07:00
MindVirusDid you see how hard I blocked out those "o"s?07:00
FlannelMindVirus: I thought you blocked out an 'a' and a 'n'?07:00
MindVirusFlannel: Me too, but apparently you thought "h**kers" meant something else.07:00
FlannelMindVirus: The rules do apply to you as well, regardless of how much disdain you have for them.  That includes the "Be considerate" and "Be respectful" ones, and it applies to everyone in the channel.07:01
MindVirusI have no problem with the rules, which is why I followed them.07:01
MindVirusSaying "hookers" is not disrespectful or inconsiderate.07:01
MindVirusOr do you want me to talk to the denizens of the channel like babies?07:02
FlannelMindVirus: Which is why you called someone "dumber than you thought"?07:02
MindVirusFlannel: See, that's deflection.07:02
MindVirusYou punished me for that.07:02
FlannelMindVirus: I did.  I kicked you as a warning.07:02
MindVirusRight, and I didn't do anything after that.07:02
FlannelI considered banning you then, but figured I'd give you a chance to straighten up first.07:03
MindVirusFlannel: I would have not fought against a ban there.07:03
FlannelMindVirus: Consider this a ban for that then, if it makes you feel better.07:03
MindVirusFlannel: It doesn't because it's not true.07:03
FlannelMindVirus: It is though.  One got you 90% of the way, the other got you the last 10%07:03
MindVirusSaying "hookers" should have got me a total of 0%.07:04
MindVirusThat is actually an innocent word.07:04
MindVirusIn fact, you taking offense to that word is offensive.07:04
FlannelMindVirus: Regardless, re-read the code of conduct, re-read the IRC guidelines, and I'll talk to you again in 24 hours.07:04
MindVirusI have the code right here.07:04
FlannelMindVirus: Good to hear, you'll have no trouble reading it then.07:04
MindVirusFlannel: Neither will you. "Some topics are controversial and often end in negativity. Take care on subjects like war, race, religion, politics, gender, sexuality, drugs, potentially illegal activities and suicide. The topics are not banned; stating your position is ok, but trolling, baiting, hostility or repetition are not. If you are asked to stop, do so politely. Disputes to !appeals, please adhere to !freenode Policy and the !CodeOfCond07:04
MindVirusWhere does it even remotely imply I'm not allowed to say "hookers"?07:05
MindVirusI wasn't even talking about them.07:05
MindVirusI just said that word.07:05
MindVirusThen I blocked out the word when asking about it, because I wasn't even sure what I did.07:05
MindVirusWait, is this about "potentially illegal activities"?07:06
MindVirusSo if I talk about someone else stealing something that would get me banned?07:06
FlannelMindVirus: This has nothing to do with that factoid.  Read the code of conduct, and the IRC guidelines.07:06
MindVirusI guess I didn't have the code of conduct then.07:06
MindVirusI'll google it because it's 2:00AM and I have nothing better to do.07:06
Flannel!coc | MindVirus07:06
ubottuMindVirus: The 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 .07:06
MindVirusThank you.07:07
Flannel!guidelines | MindVirus07:07
ubottuMindVirus: The guidelines for using the Ubuntu channels can be found here: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Guidelines07:07
MindVirusOK, the code of conduct seems to agree with me.07:07
FlannelMindVirus: Again, read and understand those, and we'll talk again in 24 hours.07:07
MindVirusFlannel: You want me to talk to you on thirsty Thursday.07:08
FlannelMindVirus: You're welcome to come back on Friday or Saturday (or whenever past 24h), that's fine.07:08
MindVirusThe only topic of note here is "Language and Subject".07:08
MindVirusHuh, odd. Seems to say the same thing as ubottu.07:09
MindVirusFlannel: The only reason I "read" the CoC so fast is because I only assumed the headings summarized the following paragraph(s).07:09
FlannelMindVirus: It basically does.  I do encourage you to read the whole thing though, but if you only catch the headings, thats sufficient.07:10
MindVirusRight, so skipping the CoC, and moving on to the IRC guidelines, which I assume follows the same rule of logic...07:11
MindVirusThere's only one pertinent section.07:11
MindVirusThat I've already read in that factoid.07:11
FlannelMindVirus: No, sorry.  I guess I didn't make it clear.  Read them so you know them in general, not just how they may apply to the situation at hand.07:11
MindVirusOh, OK.07:12
FlannelMindVirus: And then come back later and we can chat.07:12
MindVirusFlannel: So, you admit then that I did nothing against the code of conduct.07:12
MindVirusAnd you further admit that I did nothing against the guidelines.07:12
FlannelMindVirus: Eh?  No, I never said that.07:12
MindVirusFlannel: That's the implication.07:12
MindVirusI'm talking about just the ban, BTW.07:12
MindVirusI agree I deserved that kick.07:12
FlannelNo it isn't.07:12
MindVirusProbably more.07:12
MindVirusFlannel: Does "double jeopardy" apply here?07:13
FlannelMindVirus: Each time something happens administratively to you, your slate does not get wiped clean immediately.07:13
MindVirusSo the dirtier my slate gets, the more rules are invented?07:13
MindVirusI didn't do anything at that point in time.07:14
MindVirusYou gotta see that.07:14
FlannelMindVirus: No, you did.  But I'm not going to have this discussion with you now.  Come back later like I said a while ago.07:14
MindVirusBut this is about the banning.07:14
MindVirusI won't even remember it in an hour.07:15
MindVirusPlease, I've read the guidelines and the CoC.07:15
FlannelMindVirus: You best write it down then.07:15
FlannelMindVirus: I will not be discussing this with you, nor removing your ban tonight.07:15
MindVirusFine, don't.07:15
MindVirusBut it was unjustified.07:15
MindVirusThe next time I'll try to join #ubuntu-offtopic will be in like a week and I will have forgotten your name by then.07:16
MindVirusPlease, just bear with me.07:16
FlannelMindVirus: That's fine.  You can just come here and discuss it with the folks here.07:16
MindVirusI would like to discuss things now if possible.07:16
MindVirusYou need not unban me now.07:16
MindVirusJust unban me whenever you think is fit.07:16
MindVirusAs long as we talk now.07:16
MindVirusFlannel: Look, you're an op, which means you have power. I don't want to say it but you overstepped your boundaries this time.07:18
MindVirusI don't want to say it because you're a good, rational op most of the time.07:19
MindVirusI understand I've pissed you off enough but you can't punish me for being annoying.07:19
MindVirusNobody sees "hookers" on their monitor and cries for help.07:20
MindVirusFlannel: You don't have to listen to me. I just want you to know that you were wrong, and I want you to admit it. I am a rational person myself and I am not a hypocrite.07:22
ubottuprince_jammys called the ops in #ubuntu (cogin)08:15
rwwHola. Pretty sure aborticide is trolling in #ubuntu.08:37

ubottuprince_jammys called the ops in #ubuntu (whoisme)09:21
ikoniaok09:21
rwwikonia: he's rather ban-evading prone. The only reason it took him so long this time is because he was busy screwing around in #debian instead.09:22
ikoniait's fine, I'll keep an eye out now that I'm awake09:22
rwwthanks09:22

ikoniaI've put a temp blanket ban on that ISP as it's range was changing too much09:37
ikoniano-one else is using that ISP at this time, so I'll remove it shortly when he's got bored09:37
rwwsounds like a plan. I couldn't find anything in common between his IPs either. You'd think mobile ISPs would be able to tie users to static IPs easily... :(09:39
ikonianot to worry09:40
ikoniaI'll remove it shortly when he's bored09:40
ikonianow removed the above ban10:15

PiciFor the record he was banforwarded here because he rudely asked someone named 'jgay' to change their name.15:20
jpdsHaha, and the guy replied that it was his family name and he fled.15:20
azertyuback15:29
PiciHi.15:29
Piciazertyu: It looks like you've been banforwarded from #ubuntu to here.15:30
azertyuwhy ?15:31
Piciazertyu: Because you acted inappropriately towards a user in our channel.15:32
PiciPerhaps you remember your brief interaction with 'jgay'?15:32

azertyuwelllllllllllll           bref15:35
IdleOneazertyu: that is his real family name. I realise that the word gay is used pejoratively a lot of times but in this case it was a legitimate nick name. The issue here is the bad language you used towards them.15:35
azertyucan you give me access on ubuntu or not15:35

IdleOneI think maybe it does.15:51
jpdsI think they have to be in a channel ubottu is in.15:52
