[03:05] <nicomachus> got a .... pleasant PM from a user named regtrer
[03:05] <nicomachus> screenshot: https://imgur.com/9pn2GPs
[05:01] <Unit193> So #ubuntu exploded...
[05:01] <nicomachus> just one spammer... Drone ended up catching it all.
[05:02] <Unit193> Yep, so I saw.
[05:02] <nicomachus> still having trouble with one user, but it's more of an annoyance than guideline breaking, and no one's actually looking for support at the moment.
[07:04] <Myrtti> I couldn't replicate nicomachus' problem with regtrer
[08:17] <DJones> They left the channel just after it was reported here, looking at the screenshot, its the same abusive user as ban 70295
[18:21] <slidinghorn> hi folks...just wanted to drop by and report an unpleasnt pm that was sent to me from someone that must have been in the support channel.  Woke up, logged in and saw it.  User *was* regtrer, ip: 77.243.189.246
[18:22] <k1l> slidinghorn: i will have a look at the logs. thanks.
[18:22] <slidinghorn> have a good one
[18:22] <k1l> if  that happens again and the user is not logged into #ubuntu anymore you might want to report it to #freenode channel
[18:24] <k1l> same ISP/hoster "M247 Ltd" like tyuipoo!~tyuipoo@89.238.166.138 from yesterday
[18:39] <DJones> Same as ban 70295
[18:40] <DJones> I suspect they're US based using proxiesguven the timing of the trolling
[18:42] <k1l> yeah, i suspect open proxies or tor or such
[18:45] <k1l> looks like its this http://www.cyberghostvpn.com/
[18:50] <ikonia> so that service falls in the way of a connection service that has no abuse contact/policies
[18:50] <ikonia> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/ShellPolicy
[18:51] <ikonia> so I would suggest that IP range/host list is blocked in total
[18:51] <k1l> they have a lot of servers
[18:51] <k1l> but yes. blocking them is making the troll users their issue.
[18:52] <ikonia> so do bzshells :)
[18:53] <ikonia> I wonder if it lists all their hosts somewhere
[18:53] <ikonia> hopefully in a nice CIDR block
[18:54] <k1l> at least 77.243.189.240 - 77.243.189.255 and 89.238.166.0 - 89.238.167.255
[18:55] <ikonia> 166.0 through to 167.255
[18:55] <ikonia> thats a big old range
[18:55] <ikonia> it would cost a fair ammount of money to reserve that IP block
[18:56] <ikonia> how did you work out that whole range is theirs ?
[18:56] <k1l> that is what the whois on 89.238.166.138 told me
[18:57] <ikonia> it shows the whole netblock owned by them
[18:57] <ikonia> wow
[23:09] <genii> k1l: Ah, I see you got him in #u now also
[23:09] <teward> k1l: you either read my mind or noticed me join here after calling !Language in ubuntu
[23:09] <teward> I hadn't even typed five words xD
[23:10]  * teward goes away :)
[23:11] <k1l> just did look into the channel and that nick and sentence to "give a reason" to name the word nigger, was just too obvious to troll with racists stuff
[23:12] <genii> Yep, seems like the usual trolls
