| elky | pretty sure they're saying that the sofware center thing is a joke, not you. | 01:38 |
| ubottu | dax called the ops in #ubuntu-ops-team () | 02:14 |
| dax | alrighty, for posterity/logging: | 02:30 |
| dax | 02:14 < dax> Assuming no objections, I am going to ban *[m]!*@gateway/shell/matrix.org/* | 02:30 |
| dax | 02:14 < dax> Q: why? A: because over 300 clients quit/rejoin whenever the matrix IRC gateway goes down, and most of them have been abandoned for months (the matrix.org folks don't purge old connections at all) | 02:30 |
| dax | 02:14 < dax> Q: why [m]? A: it's the default suffix for matrix users, and any who really want to be in the channel still can change it (and are presumably not as likely to abandon their clients) | 02:30 |
| dax | 02:14 < dax> Q: how do they change it? A: click the @appservice-irc:matrix.org "user" on the user list, then click Start new chat, then it starts a new two "person" chat with you and the matrix bot that interfaces with the matrix-irc gateway, then you type !nick newnickhere | 02:30 |
| dax | 02:14 < dax> Q: why did you just call ops A: because i'm about to ban 300 people and would kind of like to be sure that's a good idea first :P | 02:30 |
| dax | 02:17 < dax> Q: why not banforward? A: the matrix client can't handle forwards. the IRC user will forward, but they won't get any messages or see themselves as in there | 02:30 |
| dax | this is now done, and I'll be linking to the log of this in BT for future reference | 02:30 |
| dax | @comment 75326 see https://irclogs.ubuntu.com/2017/01/08/%23ubuntu-ops.html | 02:31 |
| ubottu | Comment added. | 02:31 |
| dax | @duration 75326 365y | 02:31 |
| ubottu | 75326 will be removed after 365 years. | 02:31 |
| Flannel | You could've just not set a duration, you know. | 02:42 |
| dax | as I understand it, bans without durations get automatically whined about at least once | 02:43 |
| dax | also it's funnier this way | 02:43 |
| bazhang | we so need a 'irc ain't mickey d's drive-thru' factoid | 08:35 |
| bazhang | for the very impatient | 08:35 |
