=== fego_ is now known as zephyr [04:54] anyone with ops in #ubuntu-women available to ban someone? [04:55] I attempted a ! ops with no response [04:55] Cheri703: We saw the call in #ubuntu-ops but no one in there currently with ops in that channel :( [04:56] :/ [04:56] no one with universal anything? [04:56] any freenode staff? [04:56] or something? [04:56] because...yeah [04:57] !staff [04:57] Hey christel, Corey, Dave2, Gary, Myrtti, Pricey, VorTechS, jayne, marienz, niko, nhandler, tomaw, ldunn, I could use a bit of your time :) [04:57] ^ [04:58] thanks [04:58] >_< [04:58] Cheri703: Hopefully someone responds soon. [05:19] Cheri703: is the problem already solved? [05:19] the person got kicked by the spambot [05:19] but it'd be nice to set a ban [05:19] nice/MUCH PREFERRED [05:19] Byllida (cc5d3c28@gateway/web/freenode/ip.204.93.60.40) has quit [05:19] that is the person [05:19] nice much /6 [05:21] I was just about to head to bed, anything else you need from me JoseeAntonioR? [05:21] Cheri703: try joining #freenode and asking gry if possible, she's online right now [05:21] ah, ok thanks [05:21] * JoseeAntonioR is not an staffer... yet [05:22] :) [05:24] I don't want to broadcast the channel name because it seems like every time it is mentioned ANYWHERE we get an influx of trolls [05:25] thanks for your help JoseeAntonioR, IdleOne came back :) [05:25] great :) [05:41] IRCC: hey guys, I'd like to ask for a cloak update with an exception, my current accountname is JoseeAntonioR but I'd like to get ubuntu/member/jose as a cloak, you think that may be possible? === JoseAntonioR is now known as JoseeAntonioR === zequence_ is now known as zequence === Fuchs_ is now known as Fuchs [15:06] just in case you didn't get it, IRCC: hey guys, I'd like to ask for a cloak update with an exception, my current accountname is JoseeAntonioR but I'd like to get ubuntu/member/jose as a cloak, you think that may be possible? [15:07] hi JoseeAntonioR, good question, we normally do account name, not sure if there is any particularly good reason though [15:08] AlanBell: I'll be using the nick jose from now on, it's just staff can't drop it as it's an accountname, but the nick is unused for 138+ weeks [15:08] that means nick is expired, but the account isn't yet [15:08] AlanBell: probably because that's what freenode does for unaffiliated cloak, but i believe you can override that "default" [15:08] (as far as freenode is concerned, that is) [15:09] LjL is right, actually what goes at the end of the cloak is a unique identifier :) [15:09] JoseeAntonioR: wait, now staff won't drop unused nicknames that are the main nick for an account? [15:10] LjL: yeah, if the account is still in use yes, as that would mean dropping the whole account :( [15:10] ah makes sense if the account itself is in use i guess [15:10] yep [15:11] have you asked the fellow if he can just drop it since he ain't using it? [15:11] I tried several times with memoserv, but that isn't giving any results [15:11] I only got to /nick to jose [15:12] oh right, i guess freenode staff won't be telling you which nick he goes by nowadays :P [15:12] exactly [15:35] AlanBell: so, is the change likely to be approved? [15:43] I have no objection in principal, but I would like to know what Pici and Tm_T and funkyHat_ and topyli think [15:45] sure :) [16:23] AlanBell: I'm ok [17:55] AlanBell: no issues here === funkyHat_ is now known as funkyHat [19:09] AlanBell: sounds fine to me too [20:53] LjL: AlanBell: Yeah, everything after 'ubuntu/' is up to you. I always wondered why we didn't do launchpad account name. [20:53] it was debated a few times in the past [20:54] also it won't work all the time, as accountnames do allow characters which are not allowed in cloaks [20:54] (lolpad accountnames, that is) [21:03] in that case, a randomly-generated code would have to be put in as the unique identifier [21:03] as with unaffiliated [21:04] no [21:04] staff just has to replace them [21:05] hmm, well [21:05] there is no need to add any random code. Cloaks are 1) not _actually_ forced to be unique, they just _should_ be unique 2) chances that two people with the same (stripped off) name get both a cloak of the same project are very low 3) if it happens, it is the GCs fault anyway [21:05] :P [21:07] so, just waiting on topyli's word [21:07] its fine, I think we have covered the due diligence now :) [21:08] staff can we have an ubuntu/member/jose cloak please [21:11] * Fuchs pokes Pricey with a piece of chocolate [21:11] AlanBell: Who for? [21:11] * JoseeAntonioR :) [21:12] JoseeAntonioR: So you'll be using a nick that isn't registered to you and could technically be ghosted at any time? [21:12] Unit193: not a problem for me [21:13] I *may* be able to get it at some point [21:29] Pricey: got to handle it? [21:56] Pricey: for JoseeAntonioR [21:58] AlanBell: All done. [21:58] yay, thanks Pricey [22:01] thanks, Pricey! :) [22:01] JoseeAntonioR: No problem. === JoseeAntonioR is now known as j === j is now known as JoseeAntonioR === JoseeAntonioR is now known as jose
