[01:09] this google u speak of, [01:09] tell me more [01:17] bazhang: it is a small insignifcant company that will never rival Microsoft and is likley to go out of business like Apple [01:17] :-) [01:17] hehe [01:54] ubuntu is a fucking piece of shit [01:54] !ops [01:54] Help! Channel emergency! (ONLY use this trigger in emergencies) - Tm_T, tritium, elky, Nalioth, tonyyarusso, imbrandon, PriceChild, Madpilot, Myrtti, mneptok, Pici, tsimpson, gnomefreak, jussi, topyli, or nhandler! [01:54] jigsaw433 called the ops in #ubuntu-ops () [04:35] "* Cannot join #ubuntu (You are banned)." [04:35] so bazhang decided to change my +q to a +b? [04:36] I already knew He was going to make sure my ticket got no further. [04:36] Can I talk to a oper. [04:37] Elky? [04:37] Corey,? [04:37] I'd like to speak to a oper about this as this is abuse at this point. [04:38] if by oper you mean staff, they can't help you. [04:39] yes. [04:39] Staff's are opers... [04:39] IRC Terms Staffer = Network admin Oper = Channel admin [04:39] send an email to the IRCC and they will get to it ASAP. we channel ops have no access to the IRCC email. [04:39] I emailed IRCC [04:39] now be patient [04:39] I also tried to get the +q removed in here but he told me to leave the channel if I having nothign further [04:40] as I explained to another op how it's oppinion +q'd [04:40] Now he's raised it to a +b over him not liking my oppinion. [04:40] right, you tried to resolve the +q and were not satisfied with the outcome. You emailed the IRCC, now wait for them to reply. [04:40] The reason I sent the email is I couldn't get another op when he wanted me to leave [04:41] Well you got me now. [04:42] I am telling you the +q/+b will not be removed until the IRCC has reviewed the issue. [04:42] That's a first. I get a op that's not a friend of the op who issued the command. [04:43] So how long does it take on average to get a reply or even a view on the ticket. [04:43] hey gry ! [04:43] all depends. [04:43] We are volunteers, there is no schedule. [04:44] I wish canacole could have paid workers be OP's in these channels. [04:44] You think that would make it easier for you to get unbanned? [04:44] Any abuse / disputes like this could result in them loosing their job, so there would NEVER be a oppinion based +q or +b [04:45] No, I think it would make sure a OP has a STRONG NON OPPINION based reason for their actions. [04:45] all +q and +b are opinion based, you just happen to disagree with the opinion. [04:45] No they are not. [04:45] They are based on rule breaking and abuse... [04:45] That'd be like a Freendode staffer banning you because they don't like your name [04:45] iToast: I can see we aren't going to get anywhere. I suggest you wait patiently for the ircc to reply to your email. give them at least 72 hours to reply. [04:46] IDK why It had to be elevated to ircc... [04:46] because you disagree with the judgement of the op and wanted to complain to someone in charge. [04:47] I wanted a whole DIFFERENT op to deal with it. [04:47] the ircc are the people in charge. [04:47] I wish the IRC ops were paid workers. [04:47] So do we. [04:47] not going to happen. [04:47] I said paid workers, not the same ops now. [04:48] even if it was the same ops not everyone would be hired. [04:48] also, I am a whole different op and I agree with the decision bazhang took [04:48] Would you like to explain how come? [04:48] because we have the same opinions. [04:48] How so. [04:48] usually [04:49] He banned me as I said I think people should have to try and help themselfs before they come to the IRC channel [04:49] So you think everyone should be spoon fed and not try anything on their own? [04:49] The problem the guy was having was a quick google away but you guys treat it like "GOOGLE FU" [04:50] I even answered his question. [04:51] I'm probably going to get a +Q here for thinking people should help themselfs first. [04:51] nope, but I'm going to ask you to part the channel and wait for the ircc to respond to your email. [04:52] Same thing bazhang did. Asked me to leave as there was a differing oppinion... and it was abuse over a oppinion. [04:52] I'l be in #ubuntu-social [04:59] FloodBot2 called the ops in #ubuntu-ops-monitor (mass join (1509 users, 3 overflows, 1512 limit)) [05:00] FloodBot3 called the ops in #ubuntu-ops-monitor (mass join (1513 users, 3 overflows, 1516 limit)) [05:00] FloodBot1 called the ops in #ubuntu-ops-monitor (mass join (1513 users, 3 overflows, 1516 limit)) [06:36] smartboy is awfully trigger happy with the bot [06:36] he's trying to gain points towards membership... [06:36] yikes [06:37] I haven't really been paying attention but from what I see he is not really that helpful. He's trying though. [06:37] FloodBot3 called the ops in #ubuntu-ops-monitor (mass join (1515 users, 4 overflows, 1518 limit)) [06:37] FloodBot2 called the ops in #ubuntu-ops-monitor (mass join (1514 users, 3 overflows, 1517 limit)) [06:37] FloodBot1 called the ops in #ubuntu-ops-monitor (mass join (1517 users, 4 overflows, 1521 limit)) [06:37] doing a lot of /me after flagging others for ot is not impressive [06:37] indeed [06:38] and redirecting to -server? that seemed out of the blue [06:38] well, it kinda sorta makes sense if you don't read the entire question and try to be first to answer [06:39] and know nothing about the subject matter at hand, yeah [06:39] hehe [06:42] ESAD. [06:43] haven't seen that one in a long time [07:15] bazhang: could you please tell andrew to knock it off with the ot comments. coming from me it will just be the police abusing him. [08:27] FloodBot1 called the ops in #ubuntu-ops-monitor (xubuntu appears to be abusive and has been muted, will need to be UNMUTED MANUALLY) [08:28] FloodBot1 called the ops in #ubuntu-ops-monitor (Guest81857 appears to be abusive and has been muted, will need to be UNMUTED MANUALLY) [08:28] o.O [08:28] extrasolar called the ops in #ubuntu () [09:02] IdleOne, sorry, had to be away for a bit, missed it. that was andrewh92 or so I am guessing [11:14] FloodBot3 called the ops in #ubuntu-ops-monitor (mass join (1594 users, 2 overflows, 1596 limit)) [11:14] FloodBot1 called the ops in #ubuntu-ops-monitor (mass join (1596 users, 2 overflows, 1598 limit)) [12:05] we have a user in #ubuntu-cat who has many connections and it's been flooding the channel for a few days [12:05] e.g. http://irclogs.ubuntu.com/2012/08/13/%23ubuntu-cat.html [12:05] all those jaume_off* are connected from the same ip [12:06] i was going to ban the ip but i'd like to hear what you think first [12:22] ban the ip if it fits [12:25] ok, thanks, will do and will try to contact the individual behind the bot [13:45] "I know this is totally offtopic, BUT..." [14:05] apart from irssi and weechat, ircii is the only terminal based irc client I can seem to find [14:05] I'm wondering: If I'm contributing to Ubuntu Studio, should I apply membership via the normal Ubuntu board or Xubuntu board? [14:19] my server is being used in a botnet, my isp have called me and will soon block my internet connection, how can i fix it? [14:19] I guess asking if it's ubuntu-server would be a propos [14:32] bazhang: did the issue with the botnet get resolved? [14:38] I think the only advise they were given was to reinstall, the only other thing they asked was how to avoid it in future [15:05] yep, pretty much [15:09] I just talked with him... for the last 30 minnutes [15:09] it looks like he has IRC traffic coming from his server... and exposed SSH to the Internet w/o properly securing it. [15:10] I gave him links to a few things to secure it... and advised him a reinstall is wise when you do not know what has been done to your box [15:13] ouchie [15:14] I love it when users say they have tried "everything" [15:19] they say that, and yet i still have a pen full of goats, and clean, unstained altars. [15:19] :0 [15:24] lol [15:29] bazhang: they have tried everything they know of... [15:30] its a limited set of information, or in some cases, none that they are choosing from [15:30] cprofitt, he never did get back with the pastebin of what commands in "everything" he tried [15:30] heh yeah [15:31] I think he was a bit nervous that I was a hacker at first... [15:31] he was very tight with information... then when I told him I did not have enough to really help him and sent him towards the forums he pasted some information tht helped a bit
