[03:53] <j4jackj> IdleOne, can you restate that 13 or 30 comment on record please?
[03:54] <IdleOne> I have no idea what comment you are talking about. I know I told you that I was done with you and to contact the IRCC if you wanted to resolve your ban(s)
[03:54] <IdleOne> Have a good night.
[03:54] <j4jackj> o you
[03:55] <j4jackj> elky, this has to escalate. do you have idleone's logs?
[03:55] <IdleOne> why would elky have my logs?
[03:55] <IdleOne> also stop highlighting random ops
[03:55] <IdleOne> !appeals
[03:55] <IdleOne> there is all the info you need to contact the IRCC
[03:55] <elky> j4jackj, talking to me is not escalation. learn to follow instructions.
[03:56] <j4jackj> ok
[03:56] <elky> somehow i suspect this inability is part of the problem here...
[03:56] <j4jackj> possibly
[03:58] <elky> if so, you will want to fix that deficit first
[06:18] <ChRisHansen> does anyone know if there is an irc help channel anywhere ?
[06:18] <JoseeAntonioR> ChRisHansen: #ubuntu may be able to help
[15:37] <frogshair> Cloak Request
[15:39] <Fuchs> frogshair: log in to your account request,
[15:39] <Fuchs> frogshair: also: if an ubuntu member cloak, have your launchpad page ready
[15:39] <Fuchs> if no account yet: see http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#nicksetup or /msg nickserv help register  for the short version
[15:40] <frogshair> https://launchpad.net/~detaill
[15:41] <Fuchs> frogshair: good, then you only need an account if you don't have one yet, or log in to it if you have one,
[15:41] <Fuchs> then wait for IRCC to wake up
[15:42] <k1l_> looks good from the ubuntu side. just need some IRCC for confirmation and setting the launchpad stuff up :)
[15:48] <frogshair> IRCC for confirmation and setting the launchpad stuff up ?
[15:48] <Fuchs> frogshair: somebody from IRCC has to confirm to freenode staff, just hang around here and wait for one of them
[15:49]  * Fuchs tries to lure AlanBell with cake
[15:50] <Fuchs> frogshair: you could use that wait time to set up an account as per description above
[15:50] <Fuchs> note that the mail address has to be valid
[15:50] <Unit193> Cookies.
[15:56] <frogshair> The name has been registered @ nick-sever and confirmed via email prior to visiting this channel. Is there another step I missed ?
[15:56] <Fuchs> frogshair: which nick? if your current one: no, I am afraid it is not registered.
[15:57] <Fuchs> frogshair: if a different one: you probably just forgot to log in,  /msg nickserv identify yourname yourpassword
[16:02] <frogshair> frogshair is the name used and I  entered the /msg NickServ VERIFY REGISTER frogshair_passwaord
[16:03] <Fuchs> -NickServ- frogshair is not registered.
[16:03] <Fuchs> oh
[16:03] <Fuchs> the verify needs the thing from the E-Mail
[16:03] <Fuchs> if you didn't do that, it expired after 24 hours
[16:03] <Fuchs> just re-register :)
[16:03] <Fuchs> make sure to use a valid e-mail address, verify with the code provided in the e-mail and you should be fine
[16:50] <AlanBell> did someone say cake?
[16:50] <Fuchs> AlanBell: too late.
[16:50] <Fuchs> go back to sleep ;p
[16:50]  * AlanBell wanders off to find cake :)
[16:50] <Fuchs> I have some, but I guess I'm not around the corner
[16:51] <AlanBell> not really. I think we have some banana bread cooling down
[16:51] <Fuchs> lovely. Enjoy :)
[16:54] <Unit193> Fuchs: Sent him back too soon.
[16:54] <Fuchs> AlanBell: there you have him
[16:55] <Fuchs> now we only have him to manage to register the nick first  (the one without _)
[16:55] <AlanBell> yup, with a registered nick the launchpad bit looks fine
[16:56] <Fuchs> frogshair_:   /nick frogshair      then     /msg nickserv REGISTER fancypasswordhere valid@emailaddre.ss       then follow instructions in the mail received.
[16:56] <Fuchs> oh, you are already here as frogshair as well, so you can't /nick
[16:56] <Fuchs> bleh
[16:57] <Fuchs> do it from there, then
[17:04] <frogshair_> I'm a bit lost , I have  followed the instructions   within 24 hours and yet I come back as unregistered.
[17:05] <Fuchs> frogshair_: which is why I gave you the exact commands. Anyway, your pidgin (or whatever it is) is still connected as frogshair (without _), so to register the nick, you either need to do it from there or disconnect it so you can change your name
[17:05] <Fuchs> frogshair_: if you do that, I shall guide you through the process :)
[17:09] <AlanBell> frogshair_: there is a virtual user called "nickserv", you have to talk to that user to log in
[17:09] <Fuchs> *augh*
[17:09] <Fuchs> he got the nick with _ now ...
[17:10] <Fuchs> ah well
[17:10] <Fuchs> I will guide him through grouping if he starts to reply again ...
[17:10] <frogshair_> I removed the account info from the IM client and am using the browser now.
[17:11] <Fuchs> frogshair_: lovely. Now please first of all identify to your account. Write    /msg nickserv identify your-password-here
[17:11] <Fuchs> tell me when done
[17:12] <frogshair_>  /msg nickserv lrqmtjciihor
[17:12] <Fuchs> (just type it where you usually type text, make sure the / is the first character on the line, then it won't show up here)
[17:12] <Fuchs> *sigh*
[17:12] <Fuchs> okay, let us retry this:
[17:12] <Fuchs> /msg nickserv identify lrqmtjciihor
[17:12] <Fuchs> do not replace or remove the word nickserv
[17:13] <Fuchs> and do make sure that the / is right at the beginning of the line
[17:13] <Fuchs> after that:  /msg nickserv SET PASSWORD new-password-here
[17:13] <Fuchs> since everybody now has your password.
[17:13] <Fuchs> tell me when done
[17:20] <frogshair_>  /msg nickserv lrqmtjciihor
[17:21] <Fuchs> almost.
[17:21] <Fuchs> /msg nickserv identify lrqmtjciihor
[17:21] <IdleOne> frogshair_: please copy and paste the following command exactly
[17:21] <IdleOne> /msg nickserv identify lrqmtjciihor
[17:21] <Fuchs> exactly like that. Do not remove or replace any words in it. And do make sure that there is no space in front of the /. It has to start with /.
[17:27] <frogshair_> I copied and pasted the command and the original pass word from the email.
[17:28] <Fuchs> frogshair_: don't. For now: please do copy mine.
[17:29] <Fuchs> frogshair_: /msg nickserv identify lrqmtjciihor                <<< _exactly_ like this. Do _not_ remove or alter any words (unless the password is not correct), and do make sure that the / is AT THE BEGINNING of the line. No space in front, nothing. Has to start with /.
[17:29] <Fuchs> Pretty simple.
[23:43] <Unit193> [Freenode]  account  : frogshair  he did finally get it.
