| bobweaver | where do I write a compaint too about abuse of power ? | 15:38 |
|---|---|---|
| ikonia | bobweaver: if you join #ubuntu-ops you can talk to one of the other operator and I can give you the complaint proces | 15:38 |
| ikonia | process | 15:38 |
| IdleOne | ubuntu/member getting banned :/ | 15:55 |
| IdleOne | there is something not right going on | 15:56 |
| Pici | what? | 16:11 |
| Pici | IdleOne: what? | 16:11 |
| IdleOne | Pici: bobweaver has been banned from #ubuntu and -+1 because he doesn't understand how to follow simple rules | 16:12 |
| Pici | IdleOne: ah. | 16:12 |
| IdleOne | like not asking for +1 support in #ubuntu, not telling people to "google it" | 16:12 |
| IdleOne | this behaviour coming from an ubuntu/member is disappointing | 16:13 |

| Sidewinder | I acuually did a whois; thought some one was impersonating him.. | 16:22 |
| Sidewinder | But, he had 'is member cloak on so I assume that it was really him. | 16:24 |
| AlanBell | IdleOne: when you say +1 support, people are asking for quantal?? | 16:24 |
| IdleOne | AlanBell: yes | 16:24 |
| AlanBell | gosh | 16:24 |
| oCean | I NEED IT NOW | 16:24 |
| bazhang | make it work | 16:25 |
| oCean | oh, that too | 16:25 |
| * AlanBell is still having fun with precise | 16:25 | |
| m4v | i upgraded to quantal and nothing is working! | 16:25 |
| bazhang | haha | 16:25 |
| * AlanBell has wayland kinda workingish in precise | 16:27 | |

| AlanBell | we are doing a call for ops across the channels: http://ubottu.com/ircc/2012/05/04/call-for-irc-operators/ | 20:56 |
| EvilResistance | AlanBell: which time periods are you guys specifically looking for ops to be around during in the core channels? | 20:57 |
| AlanBell | midnight to morning UTC | 20:58 |
| AlanBell | as it says in the article :) | 20:58 |
| * EvilResistance converts 00:00 - 08:00 UTC to UTC-4 and UTC-5 | 20:58 | |
| EvilResistance | you mean the article that bugs out halfway down? | 20:58 |
| * EvilResistance blames firefox | 20:58 | |
| guntbert | AlanBell: would it be very tedious to switch backgound/foreground colors? | 20:58 |
| AlanBell | works for me | 20:58 |
| AlanBell | guntbert: well most people will read it on planet ubuntu which is the other way round | 20:59 |
| AlanBell | I was kind of looking for a green on black consoly geeky theme for it | 20:59 |
| AlanBell | with a bit of an IRC/irssi feel to it | 20:59 |
| AlanBell | and a fluid layout that behaves itself with ctrl+mousewheel to zoom the text | 21:00 |
| guntbert | AlanBell: I understand the geeky aspect - but older eyes prefer dark on light :-) but nvm - I'm not going to apply anyway --- ++ for fluid layout | 21:02 |
| AlanBell | guntbert: some like it light on dark, some dark on light https://lists.launchpad.net/unity-design/msg09290.html | 21:03 |
| AlanBell | now that I think about it I kind of like the idea that it is light on dark on the blog itself, and dark on light on planet ubuntu so people have both ways to consume it | 21:04 |
| AlanBell | plus I emailed it to the IRC discussion mailing list | 21:04 |
| guntbert | AlanBell: of course - don't take me too serious - but its nice to have it both ways | 21:04 |
| Unit193 | My email is light/mid on dark. (Alpine) | 21:04 |
| LinuxMonkey | Hi all, how's it going? | 21:48 |
| LinuxMonkey | I was wondering if it was possible to apply to become part of the team. I do have a launchpad account and just resigned a new CoC today with my pgp keys. | 21:52 |
| IdleOne | LinuxMonkey: if you mean become part of the Ubuntu ops team, yes it is. See http://ubottu.com/ircc/2012/05/04/call-for-irc-operators/ | 21:53 |
| LinuxMonkey | ok thank you verymuch IdleOne I have lots to read | 21:59 |
| IdleOne | indeed | 21:59 |
| Tomtiger11 | IdleOne: How does one do a Wiki page as a requirement for an irc operator in a core channel? | 22:00 |
| LinuxMonkey | i have wiki dating back to 2006 im scared to see what ill find I havent updated it and had forgotten about it | 22:01 |
| IdleOne | Tomtiger11: basically you go to wiki.ubuntu.com/~tomtiger11 and start typing, feel free to copy and then edit someone elses page | 22:01 |
| IdleOne | the wiki will tell you the page doesn't exist and ask if you want to create it | 22:02 |
| Tomtiger11 | Ok, so its the things ive done to help the community? | 22:02 |
| IdleOne | correct | 22:02 |
| IdleOne | read the links that are listed at http://ubottu.com/ircc/2012/05/04/call-for-irc-operators/ | 22:02 |
| IdleOne | also | 22:03 |
| IdleOne | !canibeanop | 22:03 |
| ubottu | If you are interested in joining the Ops team, take a look at both http://www.siltala.net/2010/03/24/ops-teams-applications-announcement/ and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/IrcTeam/OperatorRequirements for info on the process and requirements. You can also learn about what the job entails from people in #ubuntu-irc. | 22:03 |
| IdleOne | gotta run... | 22:03 |
| Tomtiger11 | Ok | 22:04 |
| Tomtiger11 | I doubt il become an op, allthough my past experience is second to none, im nowhere near as active as you in #ubuntu | 22:04 |
| Tomtiger11 | Meh, worth a try | 22:05 |
| Tomtiger11 | Id have a bit of trouble with testimonials | 22:06 |
| AlanBell | IdleOne: Tomtiger11: without the ~ | 22:11 |
| Tomtiger11 | Right | 22:14 |
| IdleOne | Tomtiger11: quality not quantity is what really matters :) | 22:33 |
| Tomtiger11 | :) | 22:35 |
| LinuxMonkey | Thanks again for all the hemlp IdleOne :) i've since applied | 22:47 |
| LinuxMonkey | help* | 22:47 |
| IdleOne | welcome and good luck | 22:47 |
| Sidewinder | I was reading the changes to ubottu regarding 'admingroup' factiod and while I understand what it says, would anyone care to take a moment to describe the significance of those changes (to the rights, not the factoid) as I will need to upgrade from 10.04 to 12.04 in the coming months. Since I am the only user on this system, I assume the changes will have little to no effect on me, but I am curious. | 22:48 |
| LinuxMonkey | oh thats one of my submission to the bot :) Significance is that group admin shouldnt be used anymore its now sudo. Ive helped a few users fix their sudo but alot of people keep advising of admin group wich should be sudo now :) | 22:51 |
| Tomtiger11 | IdleOne: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/tomtiger11 | 22:56 |
| Sidewinder | LinuxMonkey, Thanks; like I said I'm the only one on this 'puter so the change should have little effect to what I do. :) | 22:58 |
| IdleOne | Tomtiger11: looks good, if you are part of a !LoCo you should put that in there and also try listing any thing (no matter how small) you have done to promote Ubuntu | 23:00 |
| IdleOne | earlier I said quality, not quantity, but it does take some :) | 23:00 |
| LinuxMonkey | lol | 23:01 |
| Tomtiger11 | So putting a link on my fathers website to ubuntu, things like that? | 23:01 |
| IdleOne | Tomtiger11: you know what, my suggestions are more for Ubuntu membership. | 23:01 |
| Tomtiger11 | Or my own website (if i can be bothered to code it sgain) | 23:01 |
| IdleOne | but every little bit helps yeah | 23:01 |
| Tomtiger11 | Ok, thanks for the tip :) | 23:02 |
| IdleOne | as for the ubuntu op, the IRCC likes people who are helpful and can take a slap in the face. We get tons of them :/ | 23:02 |
| IdleOne | as you can see from my slanted smiley :P | 23:03 |
| LinuxMonkey | lol well IdleOne slap me now :) I can take it, I take it all day at work, .lol | 23:03 |
| Tomtiger11 | I can take slaps in the face (if a banned user keeps on joining the twister server every 5 seconds, and then making a bot to kill him counts) | 23:03 |
| LinuxMonkey | Hotel Industry ya know we get our fair share of slaps. Plus I told my boss we should change to Ubuntu desktops to run our checkin software | 23:04 |
| LinuxMonkey | lol Tomtiger11 | 23:04 |
| Tomtiger11 | I told everyone that cpanel sucks since you need centos for it... | 23:04 |
| Unit193 | Tomtiger11: You'll also need to register/identify with services/nickserv. | 23:16 |
| Tomtiger11 | Oops! | 23:16 |
| Tomtiger11 | There | 23:17 |
| Tomtiger11 | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/tomtiger11 | 23:18 |
| Tomtiger11 | A bit better, i think! | 23:18 |
| LinuxMonkey | not bad Tomtiger11 :) | 23:23 |
| Tomtiger11 | Thanks | 23:24 |
| LinuxMonkey | Tomtiger11: you in #ubuntu-offtopic ? | 23:24 |
