EarendilTheMarinI cannot connect to your server with my Quassel IRC using my Linux PC01:55
EarendilTheMarinIt says my account is banned, which is really strange01:55
EarendilTheMarinIt said banned for offtopic conversation01:56
LjLuh01:56
LjLyou don't usually get a reason for a ban01:56
LjLi mean, not for the client anyway01:56
LjLbut let me look01:56
EarendilTheMarinBut that happened months ago, and the ban was lifted months ago01:57
LjL@btlogin01:57
EarendilTheMarinthat was my account under a different name01:57
Unit193LjL: ...k-line?01:57
LjLoh, that sort of ban01:57
EarendilTheMarinMy username was "Lars"01:57
LjLoooh01:57
EarendilTheMarinI mistakenly talked about food in the wrong room01:57
EarendilTheMarinthat's why I got banned01:57
CoreyUh, we don't set klines for off topic chatter.01:58
EarendilTheMarinNo, sorry, that is wrong, that was my chess account01:58
IdleOneare you having problems connecting to freenode or joining a channel?01:58
EarendilTheMarinYes01:59
EarendilTheMarinI cannot connect to your server01:59
CoreyEarendilTheMarin: Which server would that be?01:59
EarendilTheMarinthis server01:59
CoreyYou're already on irc.freenode.net, we're not responsible for much more than that. :)01:59
EarendilTheMarinI cannot connect to this server using my Quassel IRC for Kubuntu 12.0402:00
EarendilTheMarinIt says my user account is banned for Offtopic conversation, which makes no sense at all02:00
IdleOnefor which channel?02:01
CoreyEarendilTheMarin: Which user account?02:01
EarendilTheMarinMy user account is "lars"02:01
LjLbut you're connected from that, if that's yours02:01
CoreyEarendilTheMarin: Not here it isn't; lars is a registered user, and is online now.02:01
EarendilTheMarinNo, I'm not online02:01
CoreyEarendilTheMarin: Then lars is not your account on freenode.02:02
EarendilTheMarinEarendil is online now02:02
EarendilTheMarinlars is not online now, that's what doesn't make sense02:02
LjLexcept lars replies to PINGs02:02
LjLso i'd call them online02:02
CoreyAnd that account has been registered for 13 years, so I'd call it "not yours." :-)02:02
EarendilTheMarinit told me that I'm banned for offtopic and I cannot connect, and lars is already online02:02
EarendilTheMarinI am lars, and I have been only online for aabout  a year02:03
LjLEarendilTheMarin: please type /msg nickserv info lars02:03
LjLyou will see that account is registered by someone else on freenode02:03
EarendilTheMarinAha, that's what I suspected02:04
EarendilTheMarinbut the strange thing is that I was using that account for months now: lars02:04
CoreyPretty sure you weren't. :-)02:04
EarendilTheMarinOnly recently could I not connect02:04
LjLmaybe you were using the nickname02:05
LjLbut not the account02:05
LjLif the "real" lars wasn't online, and their account wasn't protected, then other people (such as you) could use their nickname02:05
EarendilTheMarinI was using that user name since the summer: lars02:05
LjLbut now that they're online, they've got it02:05
CoreyEarendilTheMarin: In any case, this isn't a #ubuntu issue from what I can tell... You might have better luck in #freenode.02:05
EarendilTheMarinI don't mind changing my user name, I did it already, but the problem is IRC Quassel won't let me change my user name02:06
LjLwell i don't use Quassel, but i'm pretty sure it has a way02:06
LjLtry just typing /nick SomethingElse   while connecting02:06
EarendilTheMarinYes, they told me to come here to do that02:06
LjLthey who02:07
EarendilTheMarinI tried that already, it won't let me even get onto the server02:07
EarendilTheMarinUbuntu told me to come here02:07
IdleOnethe people in #ubuntu were not aware of the facts. the proper channel would be #freenode02:08
LjLwell that's because they thought it was a ban issue, but it appears to possibly be a simple issue of nickname collision02:08
EarendilTheMarinI agree02:08
EarendilTheMarinOk, I'll try freenode02:09
IdleOneAlright, good luck.02:09
IdleOneEarendilTheMarin: if you would kindly part this channel, that would be great.02:11
LjL#ubuntu troll13:06
h00kLjL: EricSpensor?13:37
LjLh00k: yeah but it was a different nickname a bit earlier in -ot, saying the same nonsense13:38
ubottucfhowlett called the ops in #ubuntu (EricSpensor,)13:40
h00kmy script went a little silly13:41
h00kLjL: apparently looking for assistance in killing somebody :[13:56
LjLcool13:57
k1l_@mark #ubuntu Lucid_Lynx banned in german channels now warned for advertising #Unix-Freaks in #ubuntu18:05
ubottuThe operation succeeded.18:05
DJonesseelaman: Is there something that the ubuntu-ops channel can help you with?19:09
DJonesI guess not19:15
LjL[23:31:50] [Whois] fartface is ~henry@207.102.71.77 (Henry McDickbutt)22:31
IdleOneban it before it starts to smell22:36
LjLtoo late, as i always tell my dad, the only trick is to hit the A/C's air intake button *real quick*22:37
knomei guess the only trick is to hit it before the fart22:38
IdleOneif nobody hears it...22:40
IdleOnethat doesn't apply :/22:40
knomenope22:43
knomethe silent killers are the worst22:43
knomethey sometimes even surprise yourself22:43
k1l_do we have a serbian or bosnian channel?22:50
IdleOne!serbia22:50
IdleOne!bosnia22:50
IdleOnenope22:50
LjL!rs22:51
ubottuMolimo udjite u #ubuntu-rs za pomoc u vezi sa Ubuntuom na srpskom jeziku.22:51
LjLdunno about Bosnian22:52
