[00:51] <maco> hi more-irc-knowledgeable-people-than-me
[00:51] <maco> how do i set up a channel forward?
[00:52] <maco> #ubuntu-accessibility is inaccessible to dyslexics, it has been pointed out. also to people who arent dyslexic just bad spellers and those trying to figure out what the channel's name is. so i want to make a forward. but i am ignorant and freenode's faq isnt helping
[00:53] <elky> maco, what bit isn't working?
[00:53] <maco> the part where the faq just says "don't"
[00:53] <maco> oh wait thats policy
[00:53] <maco> hrmph
[00:54] <elky> eh?
[00:55] <maco> the policy page has a bit about not making # and ## versions and making a forward between them except in extenuating circumstances. thats what i was seeing
[00:55] <maco> the faq only explains how to redirect unregistered users
[00:55] <maco> im trying to make all joins to -a11y go to -accessibility
[00:55] <elky> yes, why would you want to make a ## channel?
[00:55] <maco> i dont want a ## channel
[00:55] <elky> So i'll re-ask. what bit isn't working?
[00:55] <maco> those are just the only forwarding mentions im finding on teh freenode site
[00:56] <maco> the part where i dont have a how-to
[00:56] <maco> i dont know what to do
[00:56] <maco> i joined the one that i want to be the alias channel, so i get ops there...and then i have to do...something
[00:56] <maco> i r n00b
[00:56] <elky> http://freenode.net/using_the_network.shtml grep for forwarding
[00:58] <maco> hmm ok so i guess i gotta find someone to make the -accessibility channel be +F then
[00:59] <Flannel> Or find someone who is an operator in that channel
[00:59] <maco> nobody's op'd right now, so im going "are you an op?" to TheMuso in PM
[00:59] <elky> apparently i am
[00:59] <Flannel> maco: /msg chanserv access #ubuntu-accessibility list
[01:00] <maco> oh, i can see that output. why can i see it? ive tried with other channels and been told im not allowed to see the output of the access command
[01:05] <elky> I think we may wish to get the access list for there fixed a bit.
[01:22] <TheEvilPhoenix> oops wrong channel (was using the GUI to join, missed the right one)
[01:22] <TheEvilPhoenix> oh... looks like this *IS* where I should be
[01:22] <TheEvilPhoenix> i take it there's ops watching #kubuntu-offtopic?
[01:23]  * TheEvilPhoenix detects a user there trolling/bitching senselessly
[01:23] <TheEvilPhoenix> i'd like someone to review what they've said and address them, please
[01:27] <TheEvilPhoenix> hallo?
[01:27] <pangolin> TheEvilPhoenix: I'm not an op in that channel but what exactly besides blogging in the channel have they done?
[01:27] <TheEvilPhoenix> does senseless drunken bitching count?
[01:27] <TheEvilPhoenix> they've been on a 50 minute rant about Linux and the bugs
[01:27] <TheEvilPhoenix> also touched on o4o items
[01:28] <TheEvilPhoenix> finally started just being asshatty
[01:28] <pangolin> I didn't read the last hour
[01:28] <TheEvilPhoenix> i see
[01:28] <TheEvilPhoenix> lemme grab you what i've got and throw it into pastebin
[01:28] <TheEvilPhoenix> althougho the splits kinda flooded my logs ;P
[01:31] <TheEvilPhoenix> pangolin:  forgive the extra chars in this among other things - its xchat logs :/
[01:31] <TheEvilPhoenix> http://pastebin.com/eAbtwQky
[01:33] <TheEvilPhoenix> well, combo xchat+znc logs
[01:33] <pangolin> TheEvilPhoenix: I really didn't want to have to read the entire scroll back. I have it in my client also. Let's try being more understanding and perhaps help him to voice his concerns a little better.
[01:33] <TheEvilPhoenix> from what i've been able to ascertain
[01:33] <TheEvilPhoenix> he's likely drunk
[01:33]  * TheEvilPhoenix has seen rages like this before
[01:34] <TheEvilPhoenix> i dont need him quieted or banned
[01:34] <TheEvilPhoenix> i just want someone to be monitoring the situation
[01:35] <pangolin> will keep an eye open and see if I can find a channel op to do the same.
[01:35] <TheEvilPhoenix> correct me if i'm wrong, but doesnt *@freenode/staff/* have access?
[01:35] <TheEvilPhoenix> if all else fails they can assist ;P
[01:36] <TheEvilPhoenix> DAMN YOU IRSSI!
[01:36]  * TheEvilPhoenix shall part and deal with a segv-ing irssi
[11:51] <Ibis> Theres an irc bot  named melanie_ sending a private message for every person joining the Ubuntu channel.  <melanie_> hi s ex http://cam.nl.mn/
[11:52] <LjL> noted
[11:52] <LjL> this happens frequently lately
[11:52] <LjL> we'll keep an eye to that sort of messages
[14:03]  * Pici headdesks
[14:10] <genii-around> Is the auto unquiet thing with the bots worked out yet?
[14:10] <LjL> it breaks very frequently?
[14:11] <genii-around> LjL: Not sure. First I heard was yesterday, we had a #k user who was +q for like ten days
[16:19] <Myrtti> a bit offtopic????
[16:20] <oCean> slightly :/
[16:22]  * mneptok stares at his N900
[17:07] <Pici> ...
[17:07] <Pici> really?
[17:07] <pangolin> yes
[17:08] <h00k> what
[17:08]  * h00k saves quote
[17:08] <Pici> Which one?
[17:08] <h00k> the FAMAS quote, anyway.
[17:09] <Pici> I thought "WHy in the name of merlins baggiest pants do I suddenly need root permissions to access my external hard drive???" was funny.
[17:09] <LjL> hah
[17:10] <h00k> added that one, too.
[17:10] <h00k> One day I'll remake a quotedb
[17:10] <Pici> jrib has a file of good quotes somewhere too.
[18:57] <Pici> ...
[18:57] <Pici> LjL is going to get an A on this exam.
[19:07] <LjL> Pici: i catch you disapproval and bounce it back to you
[19:45] <pangolin> tempted to add that one
[19:46] <mneptok> my Brother MFC7840W works fine. except for some XSane stuff in 11.10.
[19:50] <pangolin> MFC240C works fine also
[20:50] <Pici> O
[20:51] <Pici> I'm going home, someone may want to deal with smallfoot- in #u+1 if they're up to it.
[21:45] <h00k> I suspect Microsoft__ a troll
