| fishbait | can i get unbanned on grounds of my own stupidity | 05:35 |
|---|---|---|
| fishbait | i was trying to send five set to 2 dots to elicit a human response that way i'd know if i was alone or if someone could hear a chat error test if u will unfortunately i sent them way too fast ...i am human mind you (in case the thinking is that i'm some sort of advanced bot.) | 05:37 |
| fishbait | V.V no response someone please help me? | 05:39 |
| Jordan_U | fishbait: I was just about to respond to you. That unfortunately shows that you haven't quite learned the lesson of being patient. | 05:39 |
| fishbait | ahh i see i'm just used to the rapid response times seen in #ubuntu usually response flew in almost immediately | 05:40 |
| Jordan_U | fishbait: Unless there are network errors it's pretty safe to say that there's always *someone* awake in #ubuntu. In addition, even on channels where that's not the case (like this one, and 99% of other IRC channels) it's still impolite to prod in that way. You should simply ask your question and wait patiently for an answer, if nobody knows the answer then nobody will answer. | 05:43 |
| fishbait | ah ty will network errors show a notice in chat? | 05:44 |
| Jordan_U | No, but it's usually pretty clear when there are network errors especially in #ubuntu. In #ubuntu, if there are less than 100 connected users, it's safe to say that somthings going wrong. If it's a netsplit that leaves you with more than 100 people but less still not able to see everyone, chances are that those that you are able to see will be talking about the problem. | 05:46 |
| fishbait | ah well now i know how to spot the problems i was probing for now is there anything that can be done about the ban?? | 05:48 |
| Jordan_U | fishbait: If you're worried that your client isn't working, you can join #test and do tests there. As you can tell, if you're muted or banned from the channel your client will give you an error message (when you try to talk or join, respectively). | 05:48 |
| fishbait | nuted i can still join but can't talk | 05:48 |
| fishbait | *muted | 05:48 |
| fishbait | i'm using the webchat client | 05:49 |
| Jordan_U | Correct, currently you're just muted (technically you'd be completely banned if you tried to connect from a normal IRC client, but that's not really important). | 05:50 |
| Jordan_U | fishbait: Do you understand not to ever do such "tests" in #ubuntu? | 05:51 |
| fishbait | yes now | 05:51 |
| Jordan_U | fishbait: Try parting and then rejoining the channel and you should be able to talk. Then (just for the irony) please try talking in the channel to confirm that you can :) | 05:53 |
| fishbait | mmk | 05:53 |
| bazhang | so yannick spoke a lot more english than he let on. kept up with the random unhelpful commentary, and then quickly ban evaded once removed and banned | 06:24 |
| bazhang | <yannick_> yep but pointless in this room | 06:24 |
| DJones | Given the occasional queries about valve & steam on linux, it might be worth having something such as !steam is Valve have officially announced that they are developing Steam and are working with !ubuntu during their devlopment, see http://blogs.valvesoftware.com/linux/steamd-penguins/ for further details | 07:32 |
| jussi | DJones: sounds sane to me | 07:41 |
| jussi | ikonia: see PM | 07:41 |
| DJones | I shall leave it to somebody with bot access to add it | 07:44 |
| jussi | !steam is <reply>Valve have officially announced that they are developing Steam and are working with !ubuntu during their devlopment, see http://blogs.valvesoftware.com/linux/steamd-penguins/ for further details | 09:40 |
| ubottu | But steam already means something else! | 09:40 |
| jussi | !steam | 09:40 |
| ubottu | Steam can be run under Ubuntu by installing WINE and running the installer from http://www.steampowered.com/ as normal. Application support in WINE can be found in #winehq | 09:41 |
| jussi | !no, steam is <reply>Valve have officially announced that they are developing Steam and are working with !ubuntu during their devlopment, see http://blogs.valvesoftware.com/linux/steamd-penguins/ for further details | 09:41 |

| * beandog nods | 15:25 | |
| IdleOne | !danger | 15:26 |
| ubottu | DO NOT RUN THAT COMMAND! That particular command is DANGEROUS and shouldn't be uttered here. REST OF YOU: DANGER, WILL ROBINSON, DANGER! Do not use the command or utter it here thank you! | 15:26 |
| IdleOne | Just to make sure any log readers decide to try that command. DON'T. | 15:27 |
| Pici | I already had told him to take the offtopic stuff elsewhere. | 15:27 |
| ikonia | he's just tried it in ##linux too | 15:27 |
| ikonia | and he was trolling #web earlier | 15:27 |
| ikonia | enough | 15:27 |
| ikonia | be aware of Kreczor-work (Kreczor) same host as mattdunbar | 15:29 |
