[07:13] hello all === nik0 is now known as niko [13:15] staff: around? We need a new cloak [13:17] er. Pricey, can you help (or otherwise, how do I signal staff)? [13:18] hggdh: 1) check /stats p [13:18] hggdh: 2) if empty: check #freenode (or -gab, if you are invited there) [13:19] (just stop by #freenode and ask if there are any staffers for a GC request.) [13:19] ? [13:19] oh, a wild niko, that also works [13:20] Fuchs, Pici: thank you. [13:21] * Fuchs hits hggdh with a cluebat [13:22] hggdh: niko is staff, he replied here, silly :p [13:22] anyway, both will work [13:22] silly [13:22] now you got a gheraint instead. Ah well. [13:22] * hggdh see stars & planets, and the clues [13:22] ah [13:22] Pici: I need a pon^W fuchs factoid! [13:22] go figure [13:23] !pony [13:23] !pony-#ubuntu-offtopic [13:23] PONY! Ponyponyponyponypony! http://windowseat.ca/images/monster_pony.jpg - NO PONIES FOR YOU! [13:25] niko: can you please set an Ubuntu mask for sgclark (~scarlett@unaffiliated/sgclark)? [13:25] hggdh: you should tell them what cloak to set, e.g. ubuntu/member/sgclark [13:26] aye [13:26] hggdh: the non-ubuntu affiliated staffers might not know the default ubuntu format [13:26] Fuchs: I will keep on learning... [13:26] (well, technically they can look it up, but you'll do them a huge favour by giving 2 pieces of information: 1) the user to cloak 2) the actual cloak. It also helps if that user is online, because for most projects staff does have to ask the user if the cloak is fine or not) [13:27] hggdh: indeed, as that it was intended, in case of it not coming across as friendly and helpful [13:28] Fuchs: ah, no, absolutely helpful. I do appreciate the help [13:28] lovely [13:29] anyway, usual approach is find a staffer (/stats p is best, then #freenode or -gab (for that you'd need an invex, not sure if ubuntu can be arsed to get these for every ircc member), then in here), then tell them who to cloak with what cloak, and best is to ensure that the user is online beforehand, because staff will contact them and ask whether they agree with that cloak [13:30] aff [13:30] Fuchs: thanks [13:30] all of this is fixed soon™ when the new GMS is ready, which will give you a web frontend for all that [13:30] ack. Better wait, then, no matter what, since sgclark does not seem to be in [13:30] I wonder if Half Life 3 will come out before the GMS is ready... [13:31] done hggdh [13:31] niko: thanks! [13:31] Pici: I won my "> 2 years from group registration closure" bet last month ♥ [13:31] Pici: it's finished, though [13:31] niko: thank you, and very sorry for the mess I made on the request [13:33] awwww ♥ [13:35] hggdh: Sure. [13:35] Pici: The thing is, the code exists ;) [13:38] and this is the result of going through backlog topdown :p [15:18] hggdh: I can now apparently. #freenode's best if /stats p is empty. [15:24] already said and already handled :) [15:32] Pricey: are you fixed? [15:33] I mean your connection, not anything else, get your mind out of the gutter. [15:34] the other thing is not needed, the beard is perfect birth control [15:34] * Fuchs hides [15:39] Pici: Looks like it. [15:39] Fuchs: Clean shaven for a couple of weeks I'll have you know! [15:40] I've been told to grow it again though. [15:40] depending on who told you that: I wouldn't trust them ;p [15:41] I just saw it again while scrolling through G+, hence the silly comment. Also because I'm an arse. Mostly that. [15:44] Pricey: removed your fix-connection bans in #u and #u-offtopic [15:45] Pici: Thanks [15:45] Pici: Unfortunately I think I may have punched through them anyway? [15:46] Pricey: I think your last cycle happened right before ikonia banned you, coincidentally enough. [15:46] Sneaky. Do need to fix that bug in my config. [15:46] Not sure what caused the flapping unfortunately. [16:57] someone tapping on your screen *nods and disappears* [17:57] Pricey: I am working on setting a series of #ubuntu-br-* channels to norm. Can you add me as +F on them? [17:57] and, of course, I will give you the list. In pieces, so that you do not despair ;-) [18:11] hggdh: sure [18:13] Pricey: #ubuntu-br-(ac, al, am, ba, ce) (part #1 of the series) [18:15] info #ubuntu-br-ac [18:16] Pricey: #ubuntu-br-(go, ma, mg, sp, br, br-dev) [18:18] Pricey: #ubuntu-br-(doc, meeting, ops, tradutores) [18:18] yikes [18:18] and I think this is it... [18:18] yeah. Putting them all under the yoke of the IRCC... [18:19] yoke, of course, is meant in a good way. [18:20] hggdh: Done. [18:20] Pricey: in your debt. I do appreciate your help. [18:21] pfft [18:21] Pricey: would you need freenode-staff added in as well to the channels? [18:21] hggdh: the proper form is actually to add *!*@freenode/staff/* the 'freenode-staff' account is for other things. [18:22] Pici: indeed. I will do so, thank you. [18:22] hggdh: freenode-staff is a dummy account that doesn't do anything. As pici said, a matching mask can be added if you want to let us know you don't mind us stepping in a bit more often than we normally would. [18:23] I see no problems with staff coming in to help if needed. If adding the mask makes this clear, then consider them added [18:25] now... given S.O. is arriving with food, I will take care of that after lunch
