[06:55] hello [06:55] yes, hi? [06:55] when i login to ubuntuforums.org.......my username as it appears has changed and "2" has been appended in the end. Furthermore all the activity / threads / posts by me are not visible in my profile....how can i fix it...? [06:56] did you read the topic of this channel? [06:56] try at #ubuntuforums [06:57] yes.......ive read it and since i didn't get info from #ubuntuforums, i thought this channel might help :) [06:57] you haven't asked in #ubuntuforums [06:58] oh sorry.....i asked in #ubuntu........... [06:59] i'm gonna try in #ubuntuforums...thnx [07:18] hi [07:18] is anyone here [07:19] yes, hi? [07:19] I would like to appeal my ban from #ubuntu directly to Mark Shuttleworth [07:20] I am a long time Ubuntu user [07:20] and I feel like my banning has been a slap in the face [07:21] Myrtti [07:22] I swear to god [07:22] if I don't get unbanned from ubuntu [07:22] well the appeals process doesn't involve Mark alone at any stage of the way [07:22] I WILL turn off Amazon ads on my Ubuntu partition [07:23] Myrtti, at what stage does it involve him [07:23] him alone? never. [07:23] you're welcome to turn off amazon ads at anytime anyway [07:23] okay then. [07:24] at any rate I'd like to appeal my ban [07:24] ok, hold on, be back with you in 1 minute, something came up [07:24] ok [07:26] (have my glasses on now) [07:26] so [07:26] why would you want to get back into #ubuntu? [07:27] I have technical issues that I need to troubleshoot [07:27] ok, could you tell me what kind of technical issue? [07:29] I see. [07:31] sorry [07:31] I was talking to someone in real life [07:32] Myrtti, I've used Ubuntu for torrenting and for some reason when I'm on Ubuntu and I want to download a tv show or movie for example [07:32] the DL rate is capped at around 10 kb/s to 12 kb/s [07:32] at first I thought it was a network issue, but I then booted up windows and tried torrenting the show [07:33] and the DL speed issues were not present, so I believe it is a technical issue with Ubuntu [07:33] I've also been postponing an update, I have about 150 mbs of updates I need to perform and I keep postponing [07:33] so maybe thats the issue? [07:35] Myrtti [07:35] so, if I'd let you to #ubuntu, what would you do, troll around? [07:35] No sir. [07:36] I'm looking at your latest interaction there from the logs and it's not encouraging [07:36] I can't remember what happend honestly [07:36] I remember getting banned, but I can't remember what for [07:36] It was probably a misunderstanding [07:36] I'm just a person, I don't need to be formally addressed with sir or m'am :-) [07:36] ok [07:36] dolphin-man: no, it really wasn't a misunderstanding, it's fairly clear that it was intentional from you [07:37] Myrtti, with all due respect I sincerely doubt that. [07:38] Myrtti, is there a way I could take this to Mark Shuttleworth? [07:38] is there a number I could call [07:39] If I could just get him to personally intervene and make you understand [07:40] what happens now Myrtti [07:40] dolphin-man: here you go: http://irclogs.ubuntu.com/2013/07/28/%23ubuntu.html#t22:48 [07:41] the fact that you want to appeal to Mark Shuttleworth is the first clue that you don't actually want to seriously resolve this or to use #ubuntu for getting help for technical problems [07:41] Myrtti, sorry I thought some casual banter in #ubuntu was okay [07:42] I just made a couple remarks, and then I was banned [07:42] also I have a lot of respect for Mark Shuttleworth, I'm sad to hear you don't [07:42] I think he would make a just aribtrator [07:43] I have respect for him, but we also have a process for ban resolution [07:43] that doesn't directly involve Mark at any point [07:43] and it's been successfully used for years [07:44] oaky, sorry for being uppity then [07:46] alright, lets do this then [07:46] !guidelines > dolphin-man [07:46] dolphin-man, please see my private message [07:46] !coc > dolphin-man [07:46] bash like bot commands? [07:46] please read those, I'll have to go have a look at what the damned cat is doing [07:46] is ubottu open source? [07:47] ok [07:51] it had pooped on the hallway rug >___< [07:51] erm yes [07:51] she is an eggdrop [07:53] dolphin-man: so did you read the links ubottu gave you? mainly the guidelines [07:53] yes [07:55] do you understand which part you did an error at? [07:56] yes the dont be annoying part [07:57] there's also a part above it [07:57] at Language and Subject [07:58] okay [08:02] I've been kindly reminded that ubottu is actually a supybot [08:02] anyway [08:03] so let's say I let you in #ubuntu [08:04] if I or any other op sees you behaving in a way that doesn't belong there, you will be banned again [08:04] dolphin-man: do you understand that? [08:05] yes [08:05] and if you are banned, it is likely that the ban removal won't be as easy as it was now [08:06] the main purpose of the bans is to prevent disruption to the channel, not to smack your hand for being naughty. But if you can't behave in non-disruptive way, then the ban will be longer [08:08] ok [08:10] go ahead and join the channel and ask your question [08:11] nah, I have to go to bed. I'll join tomorrow afternoon when I have access to a computer. [08:11] later [08:18] wheeeeee breakfast [08:19] marmalade toast and tea! [10:39] Wow... someone actually read a topic [10:41] hehe [13:41] * genii sips [17:04] Hi, I would like to know whether ubuntu BAG meets the Airport cabin baggage measurements [17:05] /j #ubuntu-customs [17:05] whoops [17:09] if he means the backpack. I believe it does but the measurments for it should be on the canonical shop [17:51] In ubottu, ironfoot495 said: I know that this works but I have a problem getting mysql and apache2 to start. I reinstalled using what yo suggested but there still is no change, [18:01] !bot > ironfoot495 [19:06] Is there anyone who has topic control in -discuss ? It's still says in part "Ubuntu for Phones discussion has moved to #ubuntu-phone" ...when that is now forwarded to #ubuntu-touch [19:07] I should have access [19:07] Want me to op you up? [19:09] if the mlock is on, having ops won't help [19:10] I don't know if it is [19:11] Pici: Changed the topic now :) [19:11] ( and deopped of course ) [20:07] Hi. [20:07] !ops [20:07] Help!

[20:09] I don't think so [20:09] 119.x [20:09] the fact that you've been asked multiple times to stop joining and doing !ops [20:09] is the main IP-addresses [20:09] of all pakistani user [20:10] u put ban on 119.x [20:10] Kaka: we have not banned Pakistan [20:10] which means, all paki users are banned [20:10] just you [20:10] you have banned pakistan [20:10] you banned a ip range, i think [20:10] we've not, [20:10] i never came here [20:10] I'm not discussing how you are banned [20:10] how am i banned [20:10] Kaka: how did know to join this channel ? [20:10] which ip range have u banned? [20:10] when i entered freenode [20:10] Kaka: I'm not discussing how we banned you [20:10] i tried connecting irc.ubuntu.com [20:10] and it sent me to #ubuntu-ops [20:11] i typed /j #ubuntu [20:11] it say, you re banned [20:11] you banned My IP Address Is 119.157.x.x? [20:11] it didn't forward you to here as we removed the forward [20:11] if yes, then you have banned all paki users [20:11] I've told you "no" 3 times [20:11] you seem to be unable to grasp this [20:11] if u banned 119.157.x.x, or 119.157.250.x, then u banned all paki users [20:11] im saying [20:11] i never came here [20:11] and i have been banned??? [20:12] how did you know to join #ubuntu-ops ? [20:12] i connected to [20:12] irc.ubuntu.com [20:12] and it sent me to #ubuntu-ops [20:12] no, it didn't, we removed the forward [20:12] it did [20:12] and I've just checked and your the same guy using the other nicknames such as jaykay and pentester and trying to be a problem causing !ops when you enter this channel [20:13] so I'm sorry to say the ban won't be in place [20:13] and the fact that oyu said "I've never been here" - but earlier said "I was banned for swearing" shows you are lying [20:13] so lets not waste more time and you go on your way [20:13] why cannot i be unbanned [20:13] for the reasons I've just said above [20:13] i want to help innocent people in #ubuntu [20:13] so we are done [20:13] bye [20:13] dude no [21:07] You have a bot named 'stree' sitting in #ubuntu, if you hilight it or /query it, it responds with random AI crap kinda like a cleverbot [21:07] lets have a look [21:08] thanks [21:12] KindTwo: sorted, thanks [21:12] no problem.
