okfinethanHey apparently i've managed to offend someone in #ubuntu and i'd like to try and solve this issue as that channel is indespensible usually.03:51
okfinethanalthough tolerance for an extra word or two about a subject outside of the scope of what other people think is ubuntu related chat is immediately warrenting a !ot03:51
okfinethani clearly didnt get this memo.03:52
okfinethanim sorry if i sound a bit ragey.03:52

Tm_Twe don't support hardware, if that was the question13:59
bazhanghe never joined #raspberrypi14:05
bazhanghe's just fishing/random questions14:16
ikoniaagreed, looking at ##hardware also14:16
bazhangheads up on tuxythe penguin; he's basically admitted to trolling/time-wasting being too lazy to search for these very easy to find things14:49
ikoniabazhang: where ?14:49
bazhangikonia, in ##hardware14:50
ikoniagreat14:50
Fuchslooking at him in #ubuntu-offtopic, trolling seems reasonable14:51
IdleOneThe only way they could make the installer easier is if Canonical sends someone to your house to install it for you, and stay for a week to make sure you know how to use your shinny new OS14:58
IdleOneYou will have to have an ample supply of cookies and bacon.14:58
DJonesAnd cake15:09
bazhangwhat's with all the free-speechers of late15:11
IdleOnepresidential elections coming up, people get all First Amendment and stuff15:12

ikoniahello avis15:29
ikoniaavis: can you respond please15:51
Chamunkshey can i get myself unbanned yet on #ubuntu?15:56
Chamunksis there a way to appeal bans.15:56
IdleOnehello Chamunks15:56
IdleOneThere is a way, you are doing it now :)15:56
Chamunksi know i was a bit grumpy yesterday i apologize about my foul language.15:56
ChamunksI'm just used to the old #ubuntu15:56
IdleOneChamunks: The reason I banned you yesterday was not because of the off topic chit chat, but because you chose to swear and rage at the channel for letting you know you were off topic.15:57
ikonia#ubuntu has never allowed bad language15:57
Chamunksway back it was tolerated.15:57
IdleOnenever15:57
IdleOnenot in the 7 years i have been using it15:57
Tm_T^15:57
Chamunksmaybe i've just seen it when the "ops were asleep" as some call it.15:57
Chamunksbut i've not really gone out of my way to offend people there before.15:58
IdleOnemice play...15:58
Chamunkseither way.15:58
Tm_Tthere's no excuse for bad behaviour, as I've used to say15:58
Chamunksi've just been kindof grumpy because at the speed which people seem to jump at you in #ubuntu these days to keep the channel from being flooded with ot chat.15:58
ikoniaso don't chat offtopic stuff ?15:59
ikoniaif you know people jump on you for doing it....don't do it15:59
Chamunksok but you see15:59
IdleOneChamunks: Anyway, you stated yesterday that you were using Mint and were going on and on about some hardware (graphics?) topic which had nothing to do with Ubuntu. I think we allowed you a lot of room to chat, but at some point we do have to stop it or the channel becomes unusable.15:59
Chamunksi was only offtopic for like a sentence or two15:59
Chamunksand immediately15:59
Chamunksi was getting !ot'd15:59
ikoniaChamunks: then don't be offtopic for a sentence or two15:59
ikoniait's a really simple solution15:59
Chamunkswell the thing is16:00
IdleOneChamunks: it sucks that we have to be so strict about it.16:00
IdleOneif we aren't people abuse.16:00
Chamunksno i get it.16:00
ikoniaI do'nt think it sucks16:00
ikoniaI don't want to hear about you downloading torrents for friends16:00
ikoniaI don't care16:00
Chamunksi admin some gaming servers i hate telling kids to obey silly rules16:00
ikoniaI want to help people having a problem16:00
Chamunksthere there to have fun bla bla but anyways.16:00
Chamunksall that aside its to the point sometimes where when im trying to explain a problem in detail sometimes.16:01
IdleOneikonia: what I mean is that I wish we didn't have to enforce the rule at all because people just respect the channel policies from the get.16:01
ikoniaIdleOne: that would be the ideal situation16:01
Chamunksand im immediately getting an !ot from someone who's not even paying attention to the relevance of the satements im making.16:01
ikoniaChamunks: then don't be offtopic16:01
ikoniait's really simple16:01
ikoniaif you don't want to get told "don't be offtopic" - don't be offtopic16:01
IdleOneChamunks: I'm willing to remove the ban if you are willing to follow the channel guidelines16:02
IdleOne!guidelines16:02
ubottuThe guidelines for using the Ubuntu channels can be found here: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Guidelines16:02
Chamunksikonia, could you please read my last message instead of just repeating yourself?16:02
ikoniaChamunks: I did16:02
ikoniait doesn't change the situation16:02
Chamunksim not retarded i understand the situation and i understand what not to do.16:02
ikoniagreat, so why are you making pointless comments16:02
IdleOneChamunks: nobody said anything of the sort16:02
ikoniayou understnad, problem solved16:02
Chamunksok well anyways16:03
IdleOneChamunks: Can you agree to follow the guidelines that are linked a couple lines up?16:03
ChamunksIdleOne,  yeah i'm going to read those carefully this time.16:04

Chamunksoh its not that i didnt know16:04
Chamunksi know i should never be a foul mouthed child about things i was just grumpy about it and i apologize.16:04
