[03:04] <pcgeek_> Hello All.
[03:04] <pcgeek_> i am new to linux world and IRC itself.
[03:04] <pcgeek_> and i find myself banned from the #ubuntu channel
[03:05] <pcgeek_> can someone help me with this issue plzz...
[03:10] <pcgeek_> Can sumeone help me with my banned from #ubuntu channel issue please ...
[03:14] <elky> im about to head off to dinner but someone should be around shortly
[03:15] <pcgeek_> ok thanks elky
[03:15] <elky> oh i found your issue. you were pasting entire files into #ubuntu and got quieted several times and then the flood prevention bot banned you because it didn't stop.
[03:16] <pcgeek_> yea thats right..
[03:16] <pcgeek_> can you help me..
[03:16] <pcgeek_> ?
[03:16] <elky> can you promise me you won't paste files into #ubuntu ever again?
[03:16] <elky> and use a pastebin service instead
[03:16] <pcgeek_> i am very new to the IRC chat, still learning its rules..
[03:17] <pcgeek_> promise...
[03:17] <pcgeek_> it happend by mistake.
[03:18] <pcgeek_> i had already create a pastebin link, but for some reason the link to it didn't get copied and hence the whole file got pasted on the chat window..
[03:18] <elky> pcgeek_: usually if you quit your irc client it'll stop a pasteflood, then you just need to rejoin
[03:19] <pcgeek_> and i am using hexchat for irc, and its a bit complicated, do you suggest another irc client for noobs..
[03:19] <elky> anyway, have a read of http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Guidelines
[03:19] <pcgeek_> thanks i didn;t know that..
[03:19] <pcgeek_> sure
[03:19] <elky> pcgeek_: nope hexchat will be fine.
[03:20] <pcgeek_> cool.. my choice was right, actually xubuntu came with pidgin and i couldn't get it..
[03:21] <elky> yeah pidgin isn't a full client for irc, just a "better than nothing"
[03:21] <elky> anyway hold on and read those rules while i remove the ban
[03:22] <pcgeek_> reading it.. thanks!
[03:22] <elky> pcgeek_: please try rejoining
[03:23] <elky> excellent
[03:23] <pcgeek_> yup i am in, thanks a lot...
[03:23] <dax> (check you can talk too, just for good measure)
[03:25] <elky> now i'm off to get dinner, have fun, but not too much ;)
