OsariusHi i've just been kicked from #ubuntu. I'm not very happy with the attitude of some of the users in there - my 'comments' were called 'pointless' after I am getting quite frustrated with an issue I'm having at the moment, hence my joining of the channel.14:43
OsariusDoesn't exactly bring a good front, does it?14:43
ikoniaOsarius: the point of a help channel is to ask for help14:44
ikoniayou've not done so14:44
OsariusActually, I did.14:44
ikoniait's frsutrating for all the other users in the channel to see you complain14:44
ikoniajust ask your question, state the problem clearly (as possible) and get a response14:44
OsariusWhich I did, I'll state again.14:44
ikoniano need for /me pours hot lava over stuff type comments14:44
ikoniaI "asked" you not to make those comments, and you decided to argue and try to be clever14:45
ikoniathat's what got you banned14:45
ikoniareally easy "please don't make those pointless comments" "sure, no problem"14:45
ikoniathat's all that's needed14:45
OsariusI saw no rule saying that those sort of comments are not allowed when I joined. I certaintly don't think it's a valid reason to get banned over.14:46
ikoniaas I said, your comments didn't get you banned14:46
ikoniaI asked you to not make them, and you chose to argue it14:47
ikoniathe channel doesn't need to see the argument, so I moved you to here14:47
ikonialet me show you the channels guidelines14:47
ikoniait may help14:47
ikonia!guidelines | Osarius14:47
ubottuOsarius: The guidelines for using the Ubuntu channels can be found here: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Guidelines14:47
Tm_TOsarius: hi, when you did join the channel, did you see the channel topic?14:47
OsariusI was asking for help about YaCy and Apache2. Got ignored. Few minutes later wrote the /me thing, then was quite harshly asked not to by Ikonia. To be frank I didn't like the attitude, so I threw it back. Shame people can't take what they give out.14:49
ikoniaI can take it fine, hence why I'm still talking to you and explaining it14:50
ikoniabut the #ubuntu channel doesn't need to see you try to be clever to pretty responsible responses14:50
ikoniaI'll leave it to you to srot out14:51
ikoniasort out14:51
OsariusI also don't see 'being clever' as a bannable offence on the guidelines.14:52
OsariusBut meh14:52
Tm_TOsarius: interestingly you chose to ignore my question, but to comment what you just described, few points: the fact that you didn't get respond in few minutes doesn't mean you were ignored or that you're allowed to ventilate on busy support channel14:52
Tm_TOsarius: ban is not necessarily a punishment, in this case ikonia clearly informed that reason was to take the discussion to where it belongs14:53
Tm_T#ubuntu is busy channel already, thus we have to keep it free from conversations that doesn't belong to there14:54
Osariusk enough of the finger wagging, got it. I'm a busy sysadmin too.14:56
Tm_Tfinger wagging?14:56
OsariusAh feck it.14:56
Tm_Ttsssk14:57
Tm_Toh well, I tried to explain things as reasonable as I could15:00
