bazhangiToast, what help do you need here06:13
chuiToast: There is a policy which you explicitly chose to ignore.06:13
iToastI can't speak in the other channel after you.06:13
iToastchu: I didn't know about the anti google but I was starting06:13
iToastThat I believe you should try and help yourself first.06:13
iToastThere is Ubuntu wiki, Ubuntu Forums, Google, Man pages06:14
bazhangiToast, it is a clear channel policy.06:14
chuMaybe you should read the guidelines.06:14
iToastbazhang: were?.06:14
chuiToast: The guidelines for using the Ubuntu channels can be found here: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Guidelines06:14
iToastI don't know were they are -_-06:14
bazhang!google06:14
ubottuWhile Google is useful for helpers, many newer users don't have the google-fu yet. Please don't tell people to "google it" when they ask a question.06:14
iToast...06:14
chuI'm not sure if the guidelines mentions that though.06:15
bazhangiToast, was there anything else06:15
iToast"google-fu" My query "text only webbrowsers for linux"... "lynx" is well known... >_>06:15
bazhangto you06:15
iToastLynx is known by millions. its the most POPULAR text based browser06:15
iToastI think there is a Apple //e port.06:16
bazhangiToast, that's beside the point.06:16
iToast"[02:16] == Cannot send to channel: #ubuntu"06:16
iToastI was +q'd for my oppinon06:16
bazhangno06:16
iToastNot to mention the thousands of times I was told by common helpers in #ubuntu to "google it" and they were NEVER punished.06:17
bazhangfor choosing not to follow channel guidelines, that one.06:17
iToastbazhang: you +q'd AFTER I said it.06:17
iToastSpecificly after I said MY oppinion.06:17
bazhangiToast, you chose to ignore the !google that chu sent you06:17
iToastI didn't say google it aain after he did that.06:18
iToastSo it's a +q for my oppinion.06:18
bazhangnot so.06:18
bazhangiToast, if there is nothing further, please exit the channel06:18
iToast"[02:18] <+bazhang> not so. [02:18] <+bazhang> iToast, if there is nothing further, please exit the channel"06:18
iToastI can't speak in the other channel is kinda my problem?06:19
bazhangiToast, and that won't be lifted at this time.06:19
iToastThats the reason I'm here..06:19
iToastWhy?06:19
bazhangwe don't unban/unquiet on demand06:19
iToast1. I was requestiong not demanding, 2. I got muted for oppinion.06:20
iToastI only got muted AFTER stating my oppinion on the issue.06:20
bazhangiToast, it's not up for debate. the +q will not be lifted06:20
iToastCan I make a complaint about this on the forums.06:20
iToastI think it's wrong because its oppinion.06:20
bazhang!appeal | iToast06:20
ubottuiToast: If you disagree with a decision by an operator, please first pay #ubuntu-ops a visit. If you are still unhappy, please see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/AppealProcess for the steps you should take. If you feel the need to discuss the channel rules, please contact the ops on IRC or via the email address on the aforementioned page.06:20
iToastSo send a email in that you will end up replying to?06:21
bazhangnot me, no06:21
bazhangstep one was coming here. follow up with the email is step two06:22
bazhang!idle | iToast06:24
ubottuiToast: Please keep in mind that this channel is for operator/abuse questions only; we ask you to part when you have no further business here in order to keep track of users with pending inquiries.06:24
iToastbazhang: http://pastebin.com/bS1zcZ1906:25
IdleOneiToast: If there is nothing else, please part this channel.06:26
iToastIdleOne: I wish I could get a -q but this is a matter of a +o's oppinion and has to be dealt with with the assistance of opers who are willing to accept a oppinion.06:27

knomeugh12:27
mneptok00:15 < iToast> Lynx is known by millions. its the most POPULAR text based browser12:27
mneptokwell, W3M used to be installed by default. may still be. looks like iToast's massive google-fu didn't help on that score.12:27
chuI know w3m comes default with Debian (Squeeze(12:29
mneptoki'm all disoriented and cranky because i'm awake at 0530.12:31
mneptoksounds like i'm ready for some -offtopic op work.12:31
IdleOnemneptok: there is a troublesome user named elky in -ot12:32
IdleOneplease remove them12:33
mneptokno. elky tends to be able to dial up crankiness faster than i can. and we have no nationaloized health care.12:33
elkymneptok, they were calling makers mark WHISKY12:46
elkyIT IS NOT ACCEPTABLE12:46
IdleOnelol13:01
mneptokelky: that's just sacrilege. Maker's Mark is Kentucky bourbon whiskey. not whisky.13:02
mneptokit's good stuff. but it definitely needs that "e" when you spell it.13:03

DFrostedWangWhy the hell am I banned from #kubuntu-offtopic?16:09
ikoniaDFrostedWang: still unclear why you are banned ?17:00
DFrostedWangYeah17:02
ikoniaso there are many reasons17:03
DFrostedWangWhy?17:03
ikonia1.) you are constantly messing around with your nickname trying to provoke an issue, despite multiple warnings, kicks and bans about it17:03
ikonia2.) making jokes about anal sex - is that really appropriate for a channel that contains a family friendly policy17:03
DFrostedWang1.) When did that happen, and when did I get a warning, kick, or ban about it?17:04
knomefor starters, you have a ban in #xubuntu.17:04
DFrostedWang2.) It happened once, and I agreed not to do it again.17:04
DFrostedWangknome, I know17:04
ikoniaDFrostedWang: you first got kicked on the 28th may from #xubuntu about your nickname17:04
DFrostedWangI have a ban in #ubuntu too17:04
ikoniayes17:04
ikoniaI know, I think I put it there17:04
DFrostedWangThat's why I had to switch to KDE17:04
ikonia(I will confirm and check)17:05
ikoniawhy you cannot just pick a normal name like "Logan" rather than sexual reference nicknames despite multiple warnings, I don't know17:05
DFrostedWangIt's my nickname17:05
ikoniawhy you continue to change it to icweiner/seymorebutts and other such nicknames persistantly in channels, I don't know17:05
DFrostedWangWhy do you have an issue with it?17:05
ikoniathat's been explained to you multiple times17:06
ikoniapersonally, I don't have an issue with it, but I can see why it does cause a conflict with the channels policy17:06
ikoniahowever after multiple changes and warnings about it you persist, so I guess you've hit the end of the road with it now17:06
DFrostedWangWell, I can't change it in just one channel17:07
ikoniasure you can't, but for some reason you keep changing it to ICWeiner and Seymorebutts17:07
ikoniawhich are just provoking the situation17:07
ikoniaif your nickname really was DFrostedWang you'd keep it17:07
DFrostedWangI am not provoking it. I am changing it in one channel17:07
ikoniabut you keep changing it to other nicknames to try to provoke an issue, well, you've created an issue,17:07
DFrostedWangI can't decide what channels it changes in17:08
ikoniaDFrostedWang you know you can't change it in one channel, you change it one channel, you change it in all17:08
ikoniaand as other channels are asking you to change it also, it may be better to consider a less problematic nickname17:08
ikoniaand as you are not even using kubuntu any more but PCBSD you may not need to use the ubuntu channels any more so won't have this problem17:09
ikonia(just a thought)17:09
DFrostedWangIt isn't like I'm all-caps typing "DFROSTEDWANG" in the channel all the time. Nobody notices my nick most of the time.17:09
DFrostedWangI am booting many OSes17:09
ikoniaDFrostedWang: you are persisantly changing to ICWeiner and Seymorebuts, it's tedious and the operator team for the ubuntu channels are tired of talking to you abou tit17:09
knomei don't think there's much sense to continue this discussion.17:09
DFrostedWangWell, I am tired of getting banned from *buntu channels17:10
ikoniaDFrostedWang: you know the rules/guidelines of the channel,17:10
knomeyou know why you should change the nick, but since you still won't do that, no reason for us to unban.17:10
DFrostedWangI like the OS, but without any support at all, it's just awful17:10
ikoniaDFrostedWang: I suggest taking a break and have a think about if you want to use the channels, look at how your approach/nickname may conflict and either decide to alter it, or stay out17:10
ikoniaDFrostedWang: (FYI: I'd personally cut you a lot more slack if you chose the nick DFrostedWang and stuck with it rather than trying other provokotive names)17:11
DFrostedWangThis happens every time I give *buntu another chance. Just f*ck it. I'm tired of dealing with you guys. I need the free space on my computer anyway, I suppose that's what has to go.17:11
knomeikonia, agreed with that. it's not just the nick, but that in addition to the attitude17:11
ikoniaDFrostedWang: fair enough, please leave the channels if you're done17:12
DFrostedWangYeah, fine.17:12
knomevery well. enjoy other distros with looser guidelines17:12
ikoniathanks17:12
knomewhy does something tell me we're going to see him again?17:12
knomerageshouting or sth17:12
Tm_Tthanks guys for dealing with the banforward I did set17:52
