[02:14] xangua called the ops in #ubuntu (thierry) === holstein_ is now known as holstein === Mamarok is now known as Guest70441 === Guest70441 is now known as Mamarok [14:31] I honestly think someone that speaks italian should try to ask one of these numerous italian !list people why they think it would work here [14:32] I thought it had been explained in the past as its part of the Italian mindset to download films etc via IRC rather than through torrents/websites [14:35] someone told me it was in a famous italian magazine or warez site that that is the way irc works [15:19] somsip called the ops in #ubuntu (one is trolling) [16:09] ooops, the floodbots banned them [16:09] oh well [17:16] I have to say, I lol'd [19:15] 1900 nicks? [19:22] so it is [19:24] !notubuntu [19:24] !noubuntu [19:29] !wedontneednoubuntu [19:29] nope :) [20:07] any staff? we have a problem at #ubuntu-offtopic. or a better op who might be able to keep them out :) [20:07] ban evading [20:08] topyli: sure this needs staff, [20:08] as the ban has just been updated, [20:08] and seems to be very local to that specific channel? [20:09] i don't really know, i'm trying to exit ubuntu stuff but i'm somehow still an op there [20:09] _) [20:09] :) [20:10] you leaving us? [20:10] :/ [20:13] i've been moving back to debian for a good while now. i'm just doing the rest of my ubuntu work as promised [20:13] it's been great fun while it lasted! [20:14] I don't think the use of Ubuntu is a prerequisite to being an op in ubuntu channels. [20:14] it isn't, and i'm still an op at -ot like always [20:15] no need for me in the ircc next year however [20:17] topyli: usually local channel problems should be handled by local channel ops, [20:18] and in this specific case 1) the issue was already handled 2) we don't have the better tools than you have, there [20:18] if people abuse accounts or cloaks to evade bans, we might be interested in that, since this is not what they are intended for [20:18] so that might make us unhappy [20:19] but if people have entirely different hosts ... we can ban them the same way as you can. We obviously _could_ remove them from the network, but I do on one hand not see how that would help (given they have other hosts) and I don't think this is an appropriate response to them misbehaving in one channel [20:21] Fuchs: sorry. i was never elected for my irc skills in the first place :) [20:21] topyli: no problem at all, I just wasn't sure whether you are aware of that, hence me asking :) [20:21] it wasn't meant as an offense or something similar [20:22] oh no, i didn't mean it like that at all myself
