[00:15] <elky> who is good at distracting ryaxnb?
[03:56] <Corey> 19:54:16 [freenode] [~erik__(~erik@c-107-5-161-10.hsd1.mi.comcast.net )] sorry someone else told me to do it, what did it do
[03:56] <Corey> 19:54:41 [freenode] [msg(erik__)] It's an exploit that crashes older systems in some cases.  Randomly doing things that "someone  else told you to do" isn't wise.
[03:56] <Corey> 19:55:16 [freenode] [~erik__(~erik@c-107-5-161-10.hsd1.mi.comcast.net )] Sorry
[03:56] <Corey> Idiot.
[04:19] <Jordan_U> Corey: Did you ask who told them to do this?
[05:19] <Corey> Jordan_U: No, he quit before I could get to that.
[05:49] <bazhang> * Lint starts to thijnk irc is useless
[05:49] <bazhang> he just never quits with the condescension and mockery
[12:59] <ikonia> Hi Lint
[12:59] <Lint> ?
[13:00] <bazhang> /boot/grub/linux.mod
[13:00] <bazhang> that doesn't look like grub2
[13:00] <ikonia> Lint: Hello there,
[13:00] <Lint> ikonia, hello
[13:01] <ikonia> Lint: I've forwarded you from the #ubuntu channel to the #ubuntu-ops channel so I could have a short conversation with you.
[13:02] <ikonia> Lint: you've been asked on multiple occasions by multiple operators and channel members to stop with the smart/complaining comments.
[13:02] <ikonia> Lint: yet for some reason you keep ignoring these requests and keep doing them,
[13:02] <ikonia> Lint: for example
[13:02]  * ikonia wonders why there is a point to this usless irc channel
[13:02] <ikonia> that sort of thing
[13:03] <ikonia> Lint: is there a reason you are ignoring these requests to stop ?
[13:05] <Lint> ikonia, 1. I didn't said anything about "this" (or any in particular) channel; 2. what exactly did I ignored?
[13:06] <ikonia> Lint: so you're not aware of multiple people telling you to stop making these sort of comments?
[13:06] <ikonia> Lint: is that what you are saying ?
[13:06] <Lint> if there valid offtopic warnings, I obey them
[13:07] <ikonia> Lint: I'll ask again
[13:07] <ikonia> Lint: are you aware that mulitple people and operators have asked you to stop making these sorts of comments in the #ubuntu IRC channel ?
[13:08] <Lint> could I have an example?
[13:08] <ikonia> sure
[13:09] <ikonia> Lint: yesterday in #ubuntu you did this
[13:09] <ikonia> * Lint starts to thijnk irc is useless
[13:09]  * ikonia starts to thijnk irc is useless
[13:09] <ikonia> in that manner
[13:10] <ikonia> Lint: you have been asked by multiple people to stop that sort of thing
[13:10] <ikonia> is there a reason you keep ignoring these requests ?
[13:11] <Lint> I know what I said, I would like an example of 'multiple people to stop that sort of thing'. There's no 'reason' as I don't ignore anything.
[13:12] <ikonia> Lint: you want me to go through the logs and find example of people telling you to stop
[13:12] <ikonia> Lint: is that what you are asking me - seriously after so many people have told you to stop
[13:12] <Lint> if they would ask me to stop in unambigous way, I would stop.
[13:14] <ikonia> they couldn't have asked more clear
[13:14] <Lint> if /em is prohibited feature, please make it clear from the topic
[13:14] <ikonia> no - I don't need to make it clear in the topic
[13:15] <AlanBell> Lint: I think we would like you to be a bit more positive when helping people in the channel
[13:15] <ikonia> you've been given the guidelines many times
[13:15] <LjL> Lint: it's not prohibited, what is not allowed is making offtopic comments in #Ubuntu
[13:17] <Lint> ok, I will not use emotes.
[13:17] <ikonia> that's not what was said
[13:19] <LjL> Lint: also do you find it acceptable to ask whether a user problem is "mental" when they ask for help?
[13:19] <LjL> i know i don't.
[13:20] <Lint> I was wrong here and sorry about that
[13:20] <Lint> *there
[13:21] <LjL> well, there is a simple way to check whether what you're going to say in #ubuntu is appropriate - is it an Ubuntu technical support question or answer? if not, it generally doesn't belong there. of course sometimes one more or less has to stray from the topic, but the feeling here is that you do it when it's not really necessary
[13:24] <Lint> ok I will be more considerate while speaking
[13:35] <LjL> Lint: you're free to rejoin #ubuntu
[20:30] <h00k> !away > rymate1234|mc
[20:36] <h00k> !away > iqpi|off
[21:43] <PerfM> Brilliant
[21:43] <PerfM> So can I like get unbanned from all those other channels?
[21:44] <PerfM> Since it's like Febuary and I did my time.
[21:46] <LjL> PerfM, bans don't expire. it depends on what sort of history is being them. based on the amount of bans you have, i'm personally not inclined to unban you.
[21:47] <PerfM> LjL, I'm a changed person
[21:47] <PerfM> Everyone deserves a second chance
[21:48] <PerfM> or in my case...a 10th chance?
[21:48] <PerfM> C'mon. I'll be good this time, I have no intention of causing trouble.
[21:50] <LjL> you answered yourself, it's not a second chance, it's some kind of nth chance. we don't have infinite time to monitor you, ban you again, unban you, monitor you again, etc... at least, i don't.
[21:52] <PerfM> That's no fun.
[21:53] <pangolin> I came in late but may i ask why you want access to #ubuntu?
[21:54] <PerfM> pangolin, that is a very good question.
[21:55] <pangolin> Did you have an answer for it? :)
[21:56] <PerfM> Of course!
[21:56] <pangolin> Please, do tell.
[21:57] <pangolin> guess not.
[21:57] <PerfM> Because, I want to learn more about the ubuntu community
[21:58] <AlanBell> what country are you in PerfM, perhaps we can direct you to your local team channel
[21:59] <PerfM> Kenya
[21:59] <PerfM> Africa
[21:59] <pangolin> Now you're just wasting our time, again.
[21:59] <PerfM> pangolin, how?
[22:00] <pangolin> I don't believe you are in Kenya
[22:00] <PerfM> pangolin, that's your problem, not mine. If there was some way for me to prove it to you, I would.
[22:00] <AlanBell> we don't have a loco team in Kenya, but there are a number of other teams in Africa
[22:01] <pangolin> anyway, I agree with LjL. I don't have time to monitor your behaviour in #ubuntu 24/7
[22:01] <PerfM> I don't except anyone to do that. I don't need a babysitter despite what you all think.
[22:02] <PerfM> I just thought I would give it one more shot, to see if anyone here changed, but I have my answer.
[22:03] <PerfM> Sorry for "wasting" your time
[22:05] <PerfM> Can I at least be unbanned from -offtopic?
[22:06] <pangolin> thinking...
[22:08] <h00k> PerfM: given your admittance in having an nth chance to behave, I don't have the time to monitor to see if you're going to continue your behavior in there
[22:09] <PerfM> Doesn't anyone believe in trust in this channel?
[22:09] <pangolin> PerfM: we do
[22:09] <pangolin> We also believe in track records
[22:09] <PerfM> h00k, I don't want you to monitor me, I'm going to be on my very best behavior. Trust me.
[22:10] <h00k> PerfM: I cannot do that, I'm sorry.
[22:10] <PerfM> Why would I go through all this trouble, asking continously to just mess it up?
[22:10] <pangolin> because you have done it in the past
[22:10] <h00k> PerfM: I have zero indication that there'd be any difference.
[22:11] <PerfM> pangolin, I also use to get a constant quite in #freenode but's it literally been months since my last one
[22:11] <PerfM> and besides, -offtopic is suppose to be offtopic
[22:12] <PerfM> so the worst I could do is name callings, and I'm not even a fan of that
[22:12] <pangolin> off topic still has rules
[22:12] <PerfM> pangolin, and I will follow them.
[22:12] <h00k> It still has !guidelines, which it has been clear you are unable to follow. I am not unbanning you.
[22:12] <h00k> PerfM: perhaps come back in a week, and we'll consider it.
[22:12] <h00k> PerfM: until then, please /part the channel
[22:12] <pangolin> PerfM: since no one else has piped in. I think the decision has been made.
[22:13] <pangolin> Wish it could be diffrent.
[22:13] <PerfM> pangolin, I expected you to pipe in. Such a heart breaker.
[22:13] <PerfM> :(
