[00:40] <rww> Flannel: jimmy_birer dropped by #ubuntu again. debugger [~jimmy@188.26.243.208]. I set a broader ban by ident and partial IP.
[04:26] <elky> who is lazypower?
[04:27] <elky> and someone needs to stop *ball from changing his nick so much, it's taken me minutes to realise it wasn't him.
[04:27] <rww> hateball doesn't identify with nickserv
[04:27] <rww> and I don't know, but I was just pondering him.
[04:28] <rww> not hateball, the other one
[04:28] <rww> aubade
[04:28] <elky> hateball doesn't put his real name as charles butler either
[04:28] <elky> it took me minutes to be suspicious enough to check
[04:29] <rww> i maintain that having one's client make identified and unidentified people different colors is useful constantly.
[04:29] <elky> heh
[04:29] <rww> anyway. lazypower. i don't know, and i'm hoping wastrel starts doing his wastrel thing and distracts everyone or something.
[05:04] <bazhang> no response from stryker in PM before he quit
[06:16] <bazhang> preparing his escape pod now
[07:07] <edbian> Someone named Stryker is asking me to ask you to unban him.
[07:08] <rww> Umm. Are they banned from #ubuntu-ops?
[07:08] <Flannel> Looks like muted in #ubuntu (and currently in #u)
[07:08] <rww> edbian: best to have them wander in here, rather than doing it by proxy
[07:09] <edbian> I already relayed the message
[07:10] <edbian> He's here
[07:10] <Stryker> hello?
[07:10] <Flannel> Hey Stryker
[07:10] <Stryker> Hello Flannel
[07:10] <Flannel> How's it going?
[07:11] <Stryker> Pretty awful for me.
[07:11] <Flannel> Sorry to hear that
[07:11] <Stryker> Yeah, been banned on very short notice.
[07:12] <Flannel> Stryker: Yeah, you were actually quieted, not banned (this is semantics, not exactly important),
[07:12] <Stryker> Hey, thanks
[07:13] <Stryker> I checked the banlist, and i was on there
[07:13] <Flannel> I'm not exactly sure why, and I believe it was a mistake that it wasn't already removed.
[07:13] <Stryker> Okay, thanks, Flannel
[07:13] <Flannel> Stryker: But, regardless, I believe it was with regard to #ubuntu-offtopic being the offtopic channel
[07:13] <Stryker> I do agree
[07:13] <Flannel> Stryker: so, any non-support (chat, socializing, random questions, etc) should be in #ubuntu-offtopic, and #ubuntu is for Ubuntu support.
[07:14] <Stryker> Okay, will do.
[07:14] <Flannel> Stryker: Anyway, keep that in mind, and have a good time in #ubuntu.  Is there anything else I can help you with tonight?
[07:15] <Stryker> Just wanted to say I have created a large following of people I have helped last few hours by private msg.
[07:15] <Stryker> If they say anything about unbanning me, I have helped them.
[07:15] <Flannel> Stryker: Sorry you've had to do that.  Now you know about this channel, although I don't foresee you needing to use it again in the future.
[07:15] <Stryker> Thanks, Flannel
[07:16] <Stryker> I have respect for ya.
[07:21] <allknowingeye> can you guys unban me from #ubuntu
[07:22] <allknowingeye> I was being an idiot the day I gave false information; it was a fake command as well... i didn't truly mean it
[07:22] <rww> allknowingeye: Additionally to that, you had rather a bad attitude. If I unban you, that won't happen again either?
[07:23] <allknowingeye> no it won't; i learned my lesson
[07:24] <rww> alrighty. Please read http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Guidelines and http://www.ubuntu.com/community/conduct , let me know when you're done and if you have any questions, and assuming you're fine with following both I'll remove your ban.
[07:24] <allknowingeye> alright.
[07:30] <allknowingeye> rww, i read them; can i be unbanned now?
[07:30] <rww> allknowingeye: and you're going to follow both of them?
[07:31] <allknowingeye> yes, to the letter!
[07:31] <rww> allknowingeye: alrighty, I removed your ban. Please /join #ubuntu so I can make sure you're all set.
[07:31] <allknowingeye> :) ty
[07:32] <rww> no problem. have a nice evening
[07:32] <rww> (oh, also, standard unbanning text: don't get banned again, we tend to require more convincing after the first time ;)
[08:01] <cdbs> allknowingeye: Read the topic, idlers aren't welcome on this channel
[08:13] <elky> allknowingeye, we prefer people don't idle here, it avoids distractions and us poking you every five minutes. I'm going to remove you now, but if you have further issues to discuss with us, you can rejoin
[08:13] <elky> cdbs, be a little less terse next time please.
[08:14] <cdbs> elky: okay
[08:14] <elky> "you can't be here, because of blah" is a lot less rude than "you can't be here"
[08:14] <cdbs> I'll remember that elky
[08:14] <elky> :)
[10:32] <bazhang> Flannel, the +q of stryker was no mistake, oddly enough the bot did not offer a chance to comment; he was going excessively after every suggestion with "hey, what about stryker, he's a cool guy" and other such; he quit before responding to my PM
[10:33] <bazhang> the bantracker has this documented quite clearly if you scroll up before his +q
[11:06] <bazhang> fidde seems to be stuck at the who are you screen, which still apparently requires all small case
[11:09] <Jordan_U> bazhang: It shouldn't require all lowercase for anything but the username, and he has other symptoms that even if unrelated should probably be investigated.
[11:09] <bazhang> Jordan_U, true, but best to knock out the first
[11:12] <Jordan_U> bazhang: I disagree, if the media is bad he could end up with a mostly working but corrupt install, or worse there could be corruption in the partitioning code.
[12:02] <bazhang> alsaconf seem only to exist in a vim package
[12:04] <bazhang> any idea how heleny got alsaconf?
[17:54] <Incarus6> please have a look at #ubuntu, Jak3 is insulting members and gives wrong suggestions
[17:58] <lars__> hi

[18:01] <ikonia> LarsTorben: do you need any help from the ubuntu operator team ?
[18:01] <LarsTorben> no
[18:02] <LarsTorben> thanks
[18:02] <nhandler> Incarus6: Is there anything else we can help you with?
[18:03] <Incarus6> nhandler, he is banned yet, thank you.
[18:03] <cdbs> Wait, was I too strick?
[18:03] <ikonia> cdbs: thank you I have bad lag

[21:59] <Jordan_U> Sigh, I'm not in the mood to get in an argument but I don't want DasEi to continue wasting George_e's time either.
