| Logan_ | rww: lmao, ubottu should be on some kind of whitelist for those flood bots | 04:23 |
| rww | Logan_: I'm pondering that, yes. | 04:24 |
| rww | Could've been worse. ubottu could have gotten k-lined :\ | 04:25 |
| Logan_ | omai, that would've been bad | 04:26 |
| rww | I would have giggled. | 04:26 |
| h00k | ^ me too. | 04:40 |
| rww | The extremely inaccurate calculation I just did based on visual inspection of http://status.nullcortex.com/other/other/ircbans-year.png says that we run out of banlist space in 7 months :D | 04:46 |
| elky | I think I might be able to pick the unbanpocalypse on that chart. | 04:52 |
| rww | can you figure out when I went on a poke-people-about-cleaning-bans spree? ;) | 04:53 |
| elky | heh | 04:53 |
| rww | (and started cleaning FloodBot bans, which is why the slope of the graph is a lot smaller now) | 04:53 |
| rww | well, one of the reasons | 04:53 |
| fisch246 | i need advice from an op | 07:35 |
| fisch246 | someone in my LoCo team has been going into #mac and #macosx several times, and ranting about mac, and he just got banned from one of the channels... i only just found out about this, and i know none of you can do anything about it, being as why i wanted advice... what should i do with him? | 07:37 |
| fisch246 | i assume best thing to do is discuss it with my LoCo team leader? | 07:38 |
| Flannel | Talk to him about not doing it. He's banned from their channels already, so that's a non-issue. If you're worried about that relationship, have your people talk to their people to make sure it's understood that you don't condone it and stuff. | 07:39 |
| fisch246 | yea i've done all that | 07:40 |
| fisch246 | did it all right away | 07:40 |
| tonyyarusso | Pretty much, yeah. Gentle coaxing about how we can all get along is the best route. :) | 07:40 |
| fisch246 | mmk | 07:41 |
| fisch246 | thanks | 07:41 |
| fisch246 | i gave him a talk over in our LoCo team channel | 07:42 |
| fisch246 | and talked to the people in the room he was banned from | 07:42 |
| mrmist | sounds liek you're already doing all you need | 07:49 |
| fisch246 | hey... i do what i can for the Ubuntu community :) | 07:50 |
| bazhang | <cgtdk> How do I change directory in DOS in FreeBSD while using OS X? | 07:53 |
| bazhang | perhaps offtopic? | 07:53 |
| tsimpson | bazhang: he was making fun of someone I think | 07:53 |
| bazhang | tsimpson, the subsequent comment was not acceptable imo | 07:54 |
| tsimpson | neither is making fun of a user | 07:54 |
| bazhang | they've moved it to -ot | 07:57 |
| bazhang | got dustin in PM | 08:03 |
| Jordan_U | TexasSam in #ubuntu is almost certainly a troll, but I'm too tired to op at the moment. | 09:02 |
| TexasSam | Hello. I wish to register a complaint. I have been kicked and banned from #ubuntu because of my religious faith | 09:16 |
| TexasSam | Is there a body or organization where I can register an official freenode complaint? | 09:17 |
| Jordan_U | !appeal | TexasSam | 09:17 |
| ubottu | TexasSam: If you disagree with a decision by an operator, please first pay #ubuntu-ops a visit. If you are still unhappy, please see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/AppealProcess for the steps you should take. If you feel the need to discuss the channel rules, please contact the ops on IRC or via the email address on the aforementioned page. | 09:17 |
| TexasSam | Ok. I will pursue this to its fullest extent. To be summarily banned for my religious beliefs is an outrage | 09:18 |
| TexasSam | It reflects badly on freenode, and Ubuntu itself | 09:18 |
| TexasSam | I think an investigation into the religious bigotry in #ubuntu, #ubuntu-offtopic, and #ubuntu-ops is well overdue | 09:20 |
| Jordan_U | TexasSam: You were not banned for your religious beliefs, you were banned for making intentionaly offensive comments for the purpose of provoking conflict. | 09:20 |
| Jordan_U | !guidelines | TexasSam | 09:21 |
| ubottu | TexasSam: The guidelines for using the Ubuntu channels can be found here: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Guidelines | 09:21 |
| TexasSam | I did no so such thing. I enquired whether a certain type of application was available | 09:21 |
| TexasSam | Before that I enquired as to whether a Christian version of Ubuntu existed | 09:22 |
| TexasSam | If the Koran burning program exists in Windows, what is offensive about asking if it exists in Linux? | 09:22 |
| mrmist | TexasSam: Maybe give http://freenode.net/policy.shtml#offtopic and our other network policies a read and consider whether your choice of language and questions are appropriate for this network. | 09:24 |
| TexasSam | I shall do so immediately. | 09:25 |
| mrmist | Note that since this in an ubuntu channel I'm not going to debate network policy here. If you want to do so, you can talk in /msg with myself or any other staffer. (Though I'll be leaving soon.) | 09:26 |
| TexasSam | I thank you | 09:26 |
| elky | ... | 09:38 |
| elky | I'm so glad i'm on an i-just-moved-and-am-stuck-on-crappy-internet break | 09:39 |
| bazhang | heh | 10:03 |
| topyli | happy holidays :)' | 10:40 |
| Tm_T | huh? | 10:40 |

| ikonia | slow, sorry | 13:16 |
| ikonia | staff informed | 13:22 |
| === evilmist is now known as mrmist | ||
| bazhang | he's been told half a dozen times natty is not in #ubuntu | 14:19 |
| ikonia | !shipit | 14:30 |
| ubottu | Canonical is no longer sending free Ubuntu CDs to individuals through its ShipIt program. For more information please see http://blog.canonical.com/?p=551 !LoCo teams can request CDs through this link https://forms.canonical.com/lococd/ | 14:30 |
| ikonia | excellent, that's up to date | 14:30 |
| bazhang | he's been spreading mis info before | 14:31 |
| === evilmist is now known as mrmist | ||
| ikonia | I'd already pm'd him IdleOne ;) | 18:26 |
| IdleOne | hardcode? | 18:26 |
| ikonia | logan | 18:27 |
| ikonia | pfifo: hello | 18:27 |
| IdleOne | ikonia: ah ok. | 18:27 |
| pfifo | ha, theres a ops as well | 18:27 |
| IdleOne | there is | 18:27 |
| ikonia | ? | 18:28 |
| IdleOne | pfifo: was there something you needed ? | 18:28 |
| pfifo | no, is this a as needed chan? | 18:28 |
| IdleOne | yes it is | 18:28 |
| IdleOne | thank you | 18:28 |
| * LjL just points out that hardcode wasn't asking a question anymore, but merely describing how they solved their problem | 18:30 | |
| * ikonia points out it was a.) offtopic and just celebrating he'd got it working b.) still about 11.04 | 18:30 | |
| LjL | yeah well that surely deserves a ban more than repeated spammers who repeatedly just get a kick do *rolleyes* | 18:32 |
| ikonia | I'd already spoken to him a few times about it | 18:32 |
| ikonia | hence why an hour or two ban from ubuntu should make it clear #ubuntu+1 is the place he should be talking | 18:33 |
| ikonia | which he already new as he'd been getting support in there | 18:33 |
| ikonia | "knew" even | 18:34 |
| ikonia | perscitus pm'ing me with insults now :) | 18:53 |
| rww | odd. Superstar_ apparently CTCP spammed me a little about three and a half hours ago. | 20:33 |
| * rww increments the idoru questionable decision counter | 20:46 | |
| rww | !crossposting > SMG | 20:47 |
| rww | I note that if I sat in #ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic and kickbanned people without warning for crossposting, this would probably not be considered very good catalysing. | 20:50 |
| rww | I'm strongly considering asking IRCC to ask freenode to remove idoru from our channels until they get its false-positive rate down to acceptable levels, and leave it out of #ubuntu because we have our own bots that work better than it. | 20:53 |
| topyli | rww: someone already did that | 20:58 |
| topyli | (the request) | 20:59 |
| topyli | (today) | 20:59 |
| Flannel | rww: That means you're a second for the motion! Now we can vote! | 21:00 |
| topyli | can we also friend people? | 21:00 |
| topyli | ubuntu 2.0 :) | 21:01 |
| Flannel | topyli: No. Operators aren't allowed friends. | 21:01 |
| topyli | oh yeah, sorry :) | 21:01 |
| topyli | Flannel: got time for a short pm? | 21:03 |
| Flannel | topyli: Always | 21:03 |
| Flannel | well, I suppose I don't always have time, but my query windows are alway open! | 21:03 |
| Flannel | I do have time right now though | 21:03 |
| nhandler | rww: Keep in mind, many of these people would still end up getting killed for sending the message to multiple channels even without idoru in the channel. | 21:14 |
| rww | nhandler: If there are other processes freenode has in place that behave the same, I also think they're a bad idea ;P | 21:15 |
| rww | topyli: good, that saves me some time. Do y'all want an irc-council@ email from me anyway, or shall I just leave it? | 21:16 |
| nhandler | rww: That wasn't what I meant. I meant that idoru is in other channels. So if a user sends the message to #a, #b, #c, #ubuntu and idoru is only in #a, #b, #c, they might still get killed even if we were to remove it from #ubuntu | 21:17 |
| rww | nhandler: Ah. I'm aware of that, yes. | 21:17 |
| rww | One hopes that channels like #ubuntu requesting it be removed would cause idoru's maintainers to take a look at its sensitivity. | 21:18 |
| rww | It seems to be worse now than it used to be, so either my perception is inaccurate (quite possible), or there's some changes/settings that could be reverted that would improve the situation. | 21:20 |
| nhandler | rww: We constantly review who is getting killed by it (and why) and have been adjusting it as we gather more data. The hard part is, many people only see 1 innocent message from a user and an idoru kill. They might not realize that this message is being sent to a dozen other channels (which turns the innocent question into not so innocent spam) | 21:20 |
| nhandler | rww: Nothing significant has changed recently in idoru | 21:21 |
| rww | nhandler: I mean over the past few months, not days :\ | 21:31 |
| rww | but yeah, I might just be paying more attention now, since I started opping | 21:32 |
| tonyyarusso | Flannel: You don't vote after a motion is seconded. A second makes it open for debate. | 22:35 |
| Flannel | tonyyarusso: Not if we're motioning to close debate! | 22:36 |
| tonyyarusso | But his motion clearly was not formatted in such a way as to suggest that. | 22:36 |
| Flannel | tonyyarusso: His was a second, we don't know what the original motion was | 22:36 |
| tonyyarusso | Besides, the chair would have had to rule the motion in order before it could be seconded anyway. | 22:37 |
