[03:41] <phix> G'day, I am still banned from #ubuntu-offtopic for some reason, I thought that was cleared up many months agp
[03:41] <phix> s/agp/ago/
[03:41] <bazhang> checking now
[03:43] <phix> Cheers
 wtf, I was kicked from #ubuntu?  I wasn't swearing, ffs
[03:43] <bazhang> the irony
[03:44] <bazhang> you swear while saying you didnt swear
[03:44] <phix> haha :) Tell me about it, how many months ago was that again?  or was it closer to a year?
[03:44] <bazhang> twice
[03:44] <bazhang> 2011
[03:44] <bazhang> april
[03:44] <phix> bazhang: Yeah I didn't know that Using acronyms and abbreviations that can have more than one meaning was the same as swearing, that was my bad
[03:45] <bazhang> jus pointing that out, really, not berating
[03:45] <phix> ok :)  so is that a life ban?  or do I need to appeal it somewhere?
[03:46] <bazhang> I dont have +o there, but if someone who does happens along I will mention your case
[03:46] <phix> ok, I should leave now right?  From memory this channel doesn't like idlers
[03:46] <bazhang> come back in a couple of hours, unless it's urgent
[03:47] <phix> ok will do, no not urgent, I haven't been in there for two years, what's another couple or hours, or a day for that matter.
[03:47] <bazhang> ok great
[03:47] <bazhang> see you then
[03:53] <genii> @comment 39718 Removed
 does anyone know why bazhang was appointed to op this channel?
[04:24] <bazhang> passed the insanity test?
[04:26] <IdleOne> iirc the choice was you or GeorgeTorwell. I think they may have chosen wrong.
[04:26] <IdleOne> :)
[04:29] <genii> Looks like he got booted from defocus
[04:30] <bazhang> and coming here now
 thankyou captain obvious
[11:51] <ikonia> then don't take it
[11:51] <ikonia> people get spoken to like dirt too much and get 10 warnings
[11:51] <bazhang> he's gotten a tonne of latitude to find the perfect gnome2 like
[11:51] <ikonia> it's not a hard concept to grasp " talk to people polite"
[11:52] <bazhang> time to wrap that up I think
[12:02] <bazhang> he wants xfce to be identical to gnome2 in every respect. I gave a forums link that does some of that. at this point he's not even listening or checking links that people offer
[21:57] <Genyar> I got booted by a hacker
[21:57] <Genyar> I think k1l is a hacker
[21:58] <k1l> Genyar: stop trolling.
[21:59] <Genyar> k1l booted me while I was getting help installing Kubuntu
[21:59] <Genyar> I was booted from the #ubuntu room
[21:59] <Genyar> and I can't go back
[22:07] <Genyar> I got booted from #ubuntu in the middle of getting support, we were almost done, when he booted me
[22:07] <Genyar> is k1l a hacker?
[22:07] <Genyar> How do I report him to sys admin?
[22:08] <Genyar> He must be a hacker with operator status, that must be a security breach
[22:13] <Genyar>  I just got booted by a hacker who must have operator status
[22:14] <Genyar> I was getting support installing Kubuntu 12.04, and we were almost done, and he booted me without any warning
[22:15] <Genyar> I tried private chatting him and he said sth about trolling and debian, none of which made any sense
[22:15] <Genyar> It was k1l who booted me
[22:15] <Genyar> is he an operator?
[22:16] <Genyar> Did he hack into your system?
[22:17] <Genyar>  If he were a real operator, I don't think he would act so irresponsibly
[22:31] <Genyar> Anyone here?
[22:40] <Pricey> Hey Genyar.
[22:41] <Genyar> hello
[22:41] <Genyar> I got booted from #ubuntu
[22:41] <Genyar> by k1l
[22:41] <Genyar> they were helping me install Kubuntu 12.04 and we were almost done
[22:41] <Genyar> He booted me without any warning
[22:42] <Genyar> I suspect he's not a real operator
[22:42] <Genyar> He may be a hacker
[22:42] <Genyar> I was sending them screenshots of the installation process and it was taking a long time
[22:42] <Pricey> Genyar: They've been here a while.
[22:43] <Genyar> How long does a ban last?
[22:43] <Pricey> Genyar: However long it needs to to prevent disruption in the channel.
[22:44] <Genyar> Can an operator permanently boot you from a room?
[22:44] <Genyar> Can you find out if k1l is a real operator?
[22:45] <Genyar> I don't think an operator would behave so irresponsibly, so I doubt he's a real operator, could he have hacked into your system?
[22:45] <Myrtti> just stop
[22:46] <Myrtti> however unlikely and impossible you might think it is, he really is an op
[22:47] <Myrtti> could you please try to concentrate on what got you banned, instead of who actually did it?
[22:47] <Genyar> Can an irresponsible operator abuse his powers by permanently banning smn?
[22:47] <Pricey> Yes/
[22:47] <Genyar> I asked him why, and he said I was trolling, what is trolling?
[22:47] <Genyar> He also said I was using debian, and that's why he banned me
[22:48] <Pricey> Genyar: Do you have anyone in your local community that might be able to help you install Kubuntu? I think that'd be the best way forward now.
[22:48] <Genyar> I live in a small town
[22:48] <Genyar> No one here knows Linux
[22:49] <Genyar> there was a professor at the college who knows linux, but he moved to the capital city
[22:49] <Genyar> I think it's very bad that I got permanently banned from the support site
[22:50] <Genyar> and the way he banned me without any warning and being so rude, that is disturbing to me,, very disturbing
[22:50] <Genyar> I believe he has abused his powers as an operator, and I would like to make a formal complaint to the council
[22:51] <Genyar> How can I email the council a report of this horrible incident of abuse?
[22:51] <Pricey> !ircc
[22:52] <Genyar> Okay, I will email a description of what happened to the council
[22:52] <Genyar> Thank you for your help
[22:52] <Pricey> Great, have an otherwise nice evening.
[22:52] <Genyar> too late for that, unfortunately
[22:58] <IdleOne> Please make sure to part this channel now that you are done here
[23:00] <IdleOne> Genyar: Please make sure to part this channel now that you are done here.
[23:01] <Genyar> ok
