[05:56] yaffs called the ops in #ubuntu-offtopic () [06:13] bazhang: whats that for -_- [06:13] iToast, what help do you need here [06:13] iToast: There is a policy which you explicitly chose to ignore. [06:13] I can't speak in the other channel after you. [06:13] chu: I didn't know about the anti google but I was starting [06:13] That I believe you should try and help yourself first. [06:14] There is Ubuntu wiki, Ubuntu Forums, Google, Man pages [06:14] iToast, it is a clear channel policy. [06:14] Maybe you should read the guidelines. [06:14] bazhang: were?. [06:14] iToast: The guidelines for using the Ubuntu channels can be found here: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Guidelines [06:14] I don't know were they are -_- [06:14] !google [06:14] While 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] ... [06:15] I'm not sure if the guidelines mentions that though. [06:15] iToast, was there anything else [06:15] "google-fu" My query "text only webbrowsers for linux"... "lynx" is well known... >_> [06:15] to you [06:15] Lynx is known by millions. its the most POPULAR text based browser [06:16] I think there is a Apple //e port. [06:16] iToast, that's beside the point. [06:16] "[02:16] == Cannot send to channel: #ubuntu" [06:16] I was +q'd for my oppinon [06:16] no [06:17] Not to mention the thousands of times I was told by common helpers in #ubuntu to "google it" and they were NEVER punished. [06:17] for choosing not to follow channel guidelines, that one. [06:17] bazhang: you +q'd AFTER I said it. [06:17] Specificly after I said MY oppinion. [06:17] iToast, you chose to ignore the !google that chu sent you [06:18] I didn't say google it aain after he did that. [06:18] So it's a +q for my oppinion. [06:18] not so. [06:18] iToast, if there is nothing further, please exit the channel [06:18] "[02:18] <+bazhang> not so. [02:18] <+bazhang> iToast, if there is nothing further, please exit the channel" [06:19] I can't speak in the other channel is kinda my problem? [06:19] iToast, and that won't be lifted at this time. [06:19] Thats the reason I'm here.. [06:19] Why? [06:19] we don't unban/unquiet on demand [06:20] 1. I was requestiong not demanding, 2. I got muted for oppinion. [06:20] I only got muted AFTER stating my oppinion on the issue. [06:20] iToast, it's not up for debate. the +q will not be lifted [06:20] Can I make a complaint about this on the forums. [06:20] I think it's wrong because its oppinion. [06:20] !appeal | iToast [06:20] iToast: 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. [06:21] So send a email in that you will end up replying to? [06:21] not me, no [06:22] step one was coming here. follow up with the email is step two [06:24] !idle | iToast [06:24] iToast: 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. [06:25] bazhang: http://pastebin.com/bS1zcZ19 [06:26] iToast: If there is nothing else, please part this channel. [06:27] IdleOne: 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. [11:53] heads up: dfrostedwang in #k [12:27] uh. [12:27] ugh [12:27] 00:15 < iToast> Lynx is known by millions. its the most POPULAR text based browser [12:27] well, W3M used to be installed by default. may still be. looks like iToast's massive google-fu didn't help on that score. [12:29] I know w3m comes default with Debian (Squeeze( [12:31] i'm all disoriented and cranky because i'm awake at 0530. [12:31] sounds like i'm ready for some -offtopic op work. [12:32] mneptok: there is a troublesome user named elky in -ot [12:33] please remove them [12:33] no. elky tends to be able to dial up crankiness faster than i can. and we have no nationaloized health care. [12:46] mneptok, they were calling makers mark WHISKY [12:46] IT IS NOT ACCEPTABLE [13:01] lol [13:02] elky: that's just sacrilege. Maker's Mark is Kentucky bourbon whiskey. not whisky. [13:03] it's good stuff. but it definitely needs that "e" when you spell it. [14:28] yaffs called the ops in #ubuntu-irc () [14:28] !ops [14:28] Help! Channel emergency!

[14:41] what up homie? [14:41] Not much man, but I'd really rather if you didn't do that. [14:42] why? [14:42] It's annoying. [14:42] ohh [14:42] ok since you asked so nicely i will! [14:43] time to kill noobs on COD Black ops! [16:09] Why the hell am I banned from #kubuntu-offtopic? [17:00] DFrostedWang: still unclear why you are banned ? [17:02] Yeah [17:03] so there are many reasons [17:03] Why? [17:03] 1.) you are constantly messing around with your nickname trying to provoke an issue, despite multiple warnings, kicks and bans about it [17:03] 2.) making jokes about anal sex - is that really appropriate for a channel that contains a family friendly policy [17:04] 1.) When did that happen, and when did I get a warning, kick, or ban about it? [17:04] for starters, you have a ban in #xubuntu. [17:04] 2.) It happened once, and I agreed not to do it again. [17:04] knome, I know [17:04] DFrostedWang: you first got kicked on the 28th may from #xubuntu about your nickname [17:04] I have a ban in #ubuntu too [17:04] yes [17:04] I know, I think I put it there [17:04] That's why I had to switch to KDE [17:05] (I will confirm and check) [17:05] why you cannot just pick a normal name like "Logan" rather than sexual reference nicknames despite multiple warnings, I don't know [17:05] It's my nickname [17:05] why you continue to change it to icweiner/seymorebutts and other such nicknames persistantly in channels, I don't know [17:05] Why do you have an issue with it? [17:06] that's been explained to you multiple times [17:06] personally, I don't have an issue with it, but I can see why it does cause a conflict with the channels policy [17:06] however after multiple changes and warnings about it you persist, so I guess you've hit the end of the road with it now [17:07] Well, I can't change it in just one channel [17:07] sure you can't, but for some reason you keep changing it to ICWeiner and Seymorebutts [17:07] which are just provoking the situation [17:07] if your nickname really was DFrostedWang you'd keep it [17:07] I am not provoking it. I am changing it in one channel [17:07] but you keep changing it to other nicknames to try to provoke an issue, well, you've created an issue, [17:08] I can't decide what channels it changes in [17:08] DFrostedWang you know you can't change it in one channel, you change it one channel, you change it in all [17:08] and as other channels are asking you to change it also, it may be better to consider a less problematic nickname [17:09] and 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 problem [17:09] (just a thought) [17:09] It 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] I am booting many OSes [17:09] DFrostedWang: 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 tit [17:09] i don't think there's much sense to continue this discussion. [17:10] Well, I am tired of getting banned from *buntu channels [17:10] DFrostedWang: you know the rules/guidelines of the channel, [17:10] you know why you should change the nick, but since you still won't do that, no reason for us to unban. [17:10] I like the OS, but without any support at all, it's just awful [17:10] DFrostedWang: 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 out [17:11] DFrostedWang: (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] This 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] ikonia, agreed with that. it's not just the nick, but that in addition to the attitude [17:12] DFrostedWang: fair enough, please leave the channels if you're done [17:12] Yeah, fine. [17:12] very well. enjoy other distros with looser guidelines [17:12] thanks [17:12] why does something tell me we're going to see him again? [17:12] rageshouting or sth [17:52] thanks guys for dealing with the banforward I did set
