[01:33] <Jordan_U> glosoli in #ubuntu claims "some guy called 'eBay' pm'ed me but talked in france, when I asked to talk english he denied doing it, dunno if he is a spam bot or what"
[01:35] <Jordan_U> Since I've been hearing a lot of complaints about people PMing users in #ubuntu, but it's obviously not clear-cut since we don't see it and it is technically outside the channel, do we have a policy for dealing with situations like this?
[02:14] <elky> generally, PMing people who you don't already know out of the blue is bad manners
[02:15] <Jordan_U> I understand that. What I mean is, how should we as operators deal with people like eBay who have been accused of said PMing.
[02:19] <elky> tell them to not. if there is several reports, you can assume it's true
[02:19] <elky> and if it's true, you can prevent them from using our user list
[02:19] <elky> you can't stop them, but it's harder to sift through a who search than it is to sit in a channel and use tabcomplete
[06:41] <Myrtti> when a report like that comes, I always /cycle to see if I can confirm myself a msg on join bot
[10:53] <bazhang> yon__ still being an issue in #k
 [Automato Mhnuma]: hello ti kanete  What is Dark Nova script?
[10:56] <oCean> (joined in #u)
[10:56] <bazhang> yep saw that
[10:57] <AlanBell> bazhang: want ops there?
[10:58] <AlanBell> if no other kubuntu ops are around
[10:58] <bazhang> AlanBell, sure
[11:00] <bazhang> AlanBell, thanks. he's now trolling in the other channels he's in, but not ubuntu namespace. s o not our issue
[16:47] <LjL> what do i do about yarak and their unicode stuff? claims not to know it's even there, but people are going to complain.
[16:48] <Myrtti> it can't be otr
[16:50] <Myrtti> popey: tut-tut for telling someone to google it when you could have given them the link! *tut* *tut*
[16:51] <popey> seriously?
[16:51] <Myrtti> I believe there was discussion along those lines here earlier
[16:51] <Myrtti> don't be mad *snuggle*
[16:52] <popey> *sigh*
[16:52] <Myrtti> I wonder if that extra character is meant to emit a noise or something in some IRC clients
[16:53] <LjL> no idea. also, he claims to be using X-Chat but has an mIRC version string and is in ##windows
[16:53] <LjL> this smells fishy to me
[16:53] <Myrtti> it could be mirc then
[16:53] <Myrtti> and some fishy script
[16:53] <popey> he's making a meal of it now
[16:54] <Myrtti> he is a bit
[17:02] <LjL> also ident is GAYMAN_LOG, fwiw
[17:02] <pangolin> he isn't using xchat unless he purposefully changed his version reply
[17:02] <LjL> that's what he said he did
[17:03] <pangolin> so he set it to reply with the default mirc reply?
[17:03] <pangolin> i doubt it.
[17:04] <LjL> anyway he also just recommended "losethos" which from quick googling seems like some quite dubious OS, a C64-clone or something made by someone who claims to be inspired by God...
[17:04] <LjL> i don't see anything good coming out of this :\
[17:50] <LjL> [18:49:16] <alden> LukeNukem: Empathy is the progam you're looking for
[17:50] <LjL> did i miss anything or was lukenukem asking about php programming and mail servers...?
[17:53] <pangolin> seems he was ignored anyway
[17:53] <pangolin> maybe alden missed something.
[20:02] <LjL> @mark #ubuntu CAPITALISMUS Probably a troll, asking whether the mouse is going to be deprecated in +1 after I told him to stop being offtopic
