IdleOne!appeals > xene04:51
ubottuxene, please see my private message04:51
IdleOnezcat[1]: How can we help you?04:52
IdleOnezcat[1]: you are active enough to be talking in #debian you can take the time to answer me.04:55
IdleOneyour*04:58
FlannelIdleOne: He's forwarded, may not have known he was in here.04:59
IdleOnewhich is why I highlighted twice05:00
IdleOneplus bazhang did too05:00
FlannelIdleOne: If he's active in another channel, he could very well be in the middle of something there, and isn't sure where the mystery pings are coming from (again, because he isn't even aware he's in this channel)05:01
IdleOnehad he responded I would of taken the time to explain to him where he was and why but he is to busy moaning in #debian just like he did in #ubuntu when he was banned05:01
zcat[1]Hmmm05:05
IdleOnezcat[1]: welcome back05:05
zcat[1]have I been banned?05:05
IdleOneyou have from #ubuntu05:05
zcat[1]Ywah, I know why..05:05
IdleOneand forwarded here05:05
zcat[1]totally lost it with some very unhelpful help eg "go use windows"05:06
zcat[1]while trying to set up raid05:06
zcat[1]not sure why I even bother coming to #ubuntu some days, I hardly ever get my questions answered05:08
zcat[1]but... I apologise for my inappropriate comments anyhow.05:08
IdleOneappreciated05:08
IdleOneSo can I unban you and trust you will follow the guidelines?05:09
IdleOne!guidelines05:09
ubottuThe guidelines for using the Ubuntu channels can be found here: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Guidelines05:09
zcat[1]I'll try...05:09
IdleOnealright, I'll take a chance. Please read that link.05:10
zcat[1]can ubuntu try and fix software raid so it works properly?05:10
IdleOneyou can help fix it05:10
zcat[1]Yeah, I should probably check launchpad.. I suspect it's something to do with the mobo I was using not being well supported or something05:11
zcat[1]kinda had a dozen people on my back wanting their mail working again.05:11
zcat[1]ended up just setting it all up on a single drive which I'm not happy with, but it's better than 'raid' where either drive failing causes the box to not boot.05:12
IdleOnecould you please join #ubuntu to make sure I got the ban lifted05:12
IdleOnethank you.05:12
zcat[1]yep that's good thanks05:12
Jordan_UFakeRAID :(05:14
IdleOneSometimes you remove an idler and they come back all upset and continue the behaviour that got them here in the first place. Sometimes the removal is just a nudge to say "Hey I need you to focus on me for a second".05:14
rwwkicking people out of #ubuntu-ops when there isn't anything for them to interrupt, they are highly unlikely to be planning a bot attack, and there's someone else that's been idling here on and off for days :(05:15
IdleOnerww: I said something about that days ago05:15
IdleOnenot sure who/what to do about it05:15
rwwYou're already over-enforcing the silly policy, why not go all out and start banning people for repeated non-compliance?05:16
IdleOneI see what your saying.05:16
IdleOneI'll stop enforcing the no idling rule.05:17
Jordan_UNo enforcement of the idling rule? Why did I become an op then? ;)05:18
elky... IdleOne surely you can find a halfway point.05:55
IdleOnenot sure how to enforce half a policy05:59
IdleOneeither we do or we don't05:59
FlannelIdleOne: Spirit of the law, not letter of the law.06:00
rwwenforce the policy when it's useful, and don't enforce it when it's not?06:00
Flannelalso known as: use common sense, don't be a robot.06:00
IdleOneno idling means no idling06:00
rwwit says "We reserve the right to remove idlers", not "No idling"06:00
elkyUse more than 10 minutes from first greet to first boot is closer to halfway.06:00
IdleOnek06:00
IdleOnewell necreo has been here for days06:02
rwwAny staffers around?06:33
rwwhrm, nvm, I should go ask in #freenode instead of here06:33
elkygnomefreak do you have mozilla bugtracker access?08:21

ubottuIn ubottu, erUSUL said: no, runlevels is <reply> In Ubuntu all runlevels except 0,1 and 6 are by default equal. Also keep in mind that Ubuntu now uses !Upstart instead of System V init so there is normally no /etc/inittab. update: as of ubuntu 10.10 most services use upstart and the SysV runlevels are less and less usefull ( including related tools rcconf, update-rc.d etc...) see « man initctl » to learn !upstart.13:58

genii-aroundHeads up, might start getting something like: <dufyhn> Hi, kunwon1 here. Have you been waiting 2, 3, 4+ years for a Freenode GRF (Group Registration Form) to be approved by Freenode staff? Has Freenode staff stolen your channel and given it to someone else, because they made a cash donation? If so join ##freenodelawsuit today! A class action suit against freenode is in the works, and our legal counsel Saul Goodman will be answering your19:17

rwwLogan_: The answer to that question is shrouded in time, incorrect information, and disagreement, but by far the most likely way to get editing privileges is to get ops in a core channel.22:06
