[01:55] I cannot connect to your server with my Quassel IRC using my Linux PC [01:55] It says my account is banned, which is really strange [01:56] It said banned for offtopic conversation [01:56] uh [01:56] you don't usually get a reason for a ban [01:56] i mean, not for the client anyway [01:56] but let me look [01:57] But that happened months ago, and the ban was lifted months ago [01:57] @btlogin [01:57] that was my account under a different name [01:57] LjL: ...k-line? [01:57] oh, that sort of ban [01:57] My username was "Lars" [01:57] oooh [01:57] I mistakenly talked about food in the wrong room [01:57] that's why I got banned [01:58] Uh, we don't set klines for off topic chatter. [01:58] No, sorry, that is wrong, that was my chess account [01:58] are you having problems connecting to freenode or joining a channel? [01:59] Yes [01:59] I cannot connect to your server [01:59] EarendilTheMarin: Which server would that be? [01:59] this server [01:59] You're already on irc.freenode.net, we're not responsible for much more than that. :) [02:00] I cannot connect to this server using my Quassel IRC for Kubuntu 12.04 [02:00] It says my user account is banned for Offtopic conversation, which makes no sense at all [02:01] for which channel? [02:01] EarendilTheMarin: Which user account? [02:01] My user account is "lars" [02:01] but you're connected from that, if that's yours [02:01] EarendilTheMarin: Not here it isn't; lars is a registered user, and is online now. [02:01] No, I'm not online [02:02] EarendilTheMarin: Then lars is not your account on freenode. [02:02] Earendil is online now [02:02] lars is not online now, that's what doesn't make sense [02:02] except lars replies to PINGs [02:02] so i'd call them online [02:02] And that account has been registered for 13 years, so I'd call it "not yours." :-) [02:02] it told me that I'm banned for offtopic and I cannot connect, and lars is already online [02:03] I am lars, and I have been only online for aabout a year [02:03] EarendilTheMarin: please type /msg nickserv info lars [02:03] you will see that account is registered by someone else on freenode [02:04] Aha, that's what I suspected [02:04] but the strange thing is that I was using that account for months now: lars [02:04] Pretty sure you weren't. :-) [02:04] Only recently could I not connect [02:05] maybe you were using the nickname [02:05] but not the account [02:05] if the "real" lars wasn't online, and their account wasn't protected, then other people (such as you) could use their nickname [02:05] I was using that user name since the summer: lars [02:05] but now that they're online, they've got it [02:05] EarendilTheMarin: In any case, this isn't a #ubuntu issue from what I can tell... You might have better luck in #freenode. [02:06] I don't mind changing my user name, I did it already, but the problem is IRC Quassel won't let me change my user name [02:06] well i don't use Quassel, but i'm pretty sure it has a way [02:06] try just typing /nick SomethingElse while connecting [02:06] Yes, they told me to come here to do that [02:07] they who [02:07] I tried that already, it won't let me even get onto the server [02:07] Ubuntu told me to come here [02:08] the people in #ubuntu were not aware of the facts. the proper channel would be #freenode [02:08] well that's because they thought it was a ban issue, but it appears to possibly be a simple issue of nickname collision [02:08] I agree [02:09] Ok, I'll try freenode [02:09] Alright, good luck. [02:11] EarendilTheMarin: if you would kindly part this channel, that would be great. [13:06] #ubuntu troll [13:37] LjL: EricSpensor? [13:38] h00k: yeah but it was a different nickname a bit earlier in -ot, saying the same nonsense [13:40] cfhowlett called the ops in #ubuntu (EricSpensor,) [13:41] my script went a little silly [13:56] LjL: apparently looking for assistance in killing somebody :[ [13:57] cool [18:05] @mark #ubuntu Lucid_Lynx banned in german channels now warned for advertising #Unix-Freaks in #ubuntu [18:05] The operation succeeded. [19:09] seelaman: Is there something that the ubuntu-ops channel can help you with? [19:15] I guess not [22:31] [23:31:50] [Whois] fartface is ~henry@207.102.71.77 (Henry McDickbutt) [22:36] ban it before it starts to smell [22:37] too late, as i always tell my dad, the only trick is to hit the A/C's air intake button *real quick* [22:38] i guess the only trick is to hit it before the fart [22:40] if nobody hears it... [22:40] that doesn't apply :/ [22:43] nope [22:43] the silent killers are the worst [22:43] they sometimes even surprise yourself [22:50] do we have a serbian or bosnian channel? [22:50] !serbia [22:50] !bosnia [22:50] nope [22:51] !rs [22:51] Molimo udjite u #ubuntu-rs za pomoc u vezi sa Ubuntuom na srpskom jeziku. [22:52] dunno about Bosnian [22:52] but it's the same language anyway [22:52] * LjL ducks [22:52] !hr [22:52] Odgovarajuci kanal za Hrvatski jezik je #ubuntu-hr, molimo Vas da se pridruzite tom kanalu ukoliko trebate pomoc za Ubuntu, hvala. Croatian language support in #ubuntu-hr [22:52] and by "ducks", i mean "says true but politically taboo things"
