bkerensaAlanBell: Do we have a list of aliases for xchat that work?18:22
AlanBelldunno, I use irssi, someone might have such a list18:23
oCeanaliases?18:23
bkerensayeah for the popup dialogs to make things more one click versus typing commands out18:24
oCeanbkerensa: I use xchat with seveas' chanserv.py, little bit modified18:24
bkerensaoCean: ah I'll check it out18:25
oCeanbut that is nothing clickable, but makes commands easier18:25
oCeanlike, /cs r nick removes that nick18:25
oCeanbkerensa: and welcome btw :)18:26
Unit193!chanserv.py | bkerensa18:26
ubottubkerensa: chanserv.py is a ChanServ helper script for !XChat | https://github.com/seveas/chanserv.py18:26
bkerensaoCean: thanks :)18:26
oCeanoriginal chanserv.py only works with REMOVE, I added KICK too18:28
DJonesbkerensa: From http://irclogs.ubuntu.com/2012/03/12/%23ubuntu-classroom.html#t19:59   http://myrtti.fi/xchatalias18:32
bkerensaDJones: Do you know how to load the whole list?18:41
DJonesI don't I use irssi, for that, I just cut & pasted the whole lot in one go, don't know if its the same in xchat18:42
DJonesGive me a sec, I'll try it in xchat18:42
DJonesThat idea didn't work18:43
DJonesJust gave me unknown command18:43
Myrttiyou can't load the list of aliases in xchat18:44
Myrttineed to enter them by hand18:44
Myrttimight be too much trouble, use chanserv.py.18:44
bkerensaMyrtti: just through adding them to the userlist popup right?18:48
Myrttito be honest I have no clue, I've never used xchat18:50
bkerensakk18:50
* bkerensa will figure it out18:50
oCeanbkerensa: yeah, I would not recommend the "Userlist buttons..." instead, load chanserv.py and try to work with that18:51
bkerensaoCean: I loaded it but it seems to not be working18:52
oCeandid it say Loaded Chanserv helper.... ?18:53
bkerensayeah18:53
bkerensabut for instance /cs deop bkerensa18:53
bkerensadoes nothing in a test channel18:53
oCeanbkerensa: chanserv should be in that channel18:54
bkerensaoCean: ahh I got it working now18:55
Piciit doesn't need to be, but it does need to be registered channel.19:01
oCeanOh! :)19:02
bkerensaoCean: do you have a forked version of chanserv.py you wanna share that has the remove and customizations? :)19:25
oCeanbkerensa: sure, but all I did was adding actual /kick command. Originally seveas uses Freenode's /remove command, my version has /cs k for kick and /cs r for remove19:38
oCeanbkerensa: http://somedom.com/files/19:41
oCeanbkerensa: also, I started out with seveas' 2.1 version, his current version is 2.2.1, so you might be better off using his anyway.19:51
oCeanit's over, we're finished. The site is down and someone is blogging about it19:54
oCeanmight as well go home19:54
LjLLordH3lment: troll, or just, uh, really excited about random things that happen? :|19:54
Jon--During an altercation with one of the ops, I was banned from #ubuntu. I have two questions : 1) is this a perm ban? and 2) how can I appeal this action? I would like assistance with Ubuntu at the moment and I cannot access the channel.20:28
Jon--atworkPlease redirect Jon-- question to this user. Thank you for your time/assistance in the matter20:30
Jordan_UJon--atwork: The first step to getting your ban removed is to join this channel and discuss it, so far so good. Do you know why you were banned?20:39
Jon--atworkJordan_U, I was banned because I was speaking to one of the ops with disrespect. Specifically, I believe I called him a "fucking idiot". I understand that this behaviour clashes with the ideals of Ubuntu, and I shouldn't have done so. I was frustrated at the time, it was a mistake.20:42
Jon--atworkApologies for language, just being truthful ^20:42
AlanBellnot quite what you said, but the details don't matter much20:45
AlanBellJon--atwork: our support channels are there so that volunteers can provide support to others because it is fun to do. It can be frustrating if you have an issue that is not easily progressing to a resolution, however abusing supporters means that it isn't fun any more.20:47
Jon--atworkAlanBell, I understand. I actually assist in #ubuntu about half the time and am there for assistance the other half. I feel like crap for being such a jerk.20:48
AlanBellthis means people go away and don't give their time to help others, lowering the value of the channel for everyone, this is why we remove people who are agressive towards people who are trying to help them20:48
AlanBellyou were banned for pretty much identical circumstances almost exactly two years ago as well20:50
AlanBellplease try to remain unbanned well past June 201420:50
IdleOne2076 would be better :)20:51
Jon--atworkAlanBell, I'll give it at least 3 this time ;D. Kidding aside, I'll behave.20:52
Jon--atworkAlanBell, Does that mean that the ban will be revoked?21:01
IdleOneJon--atwork: sit tight for a few :)21:02
IdleOne!guidelines21:03
ubottuThe guidelines for using the Ubuntu channels can be found here: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Guidelines21:03
IdleOnenot sure if you are familiar with the guidelinesbut you might want to take a look21:03
IdleOnewhile you wait21:03
IdleOneJon--atwork: can you please join #ubuntu now21:12
Jon--atworkIdleOne, Workec21:28
Jon--atworkWorked*21:28
Jon--atworkThanks IdleOne AlanBell.21:28
IdleOnesure thing. have a good night21:31
IdleOneJon--atwork: If you could part this channel so that we don't lose track of who needs helping that would be great.21:33
