| inetpro | here's the thing WrathOfAchilles, even with everyone gone from #ubuntu-africa I still could not join with lowercase, it automatically remembers the name | 04:19 |
|---|---|---|
| inetpro | maybe it will flush the memory of channel names after a few hours, days or weeks of non-usage but it definitely remembers the case for some time | 04:40 |
| WrathOfAchilles | I did this a while ago on freenode, it worked. :3 | 05:09 |
| WrathOfAchilles | inetpro: So, -africa otherwise is all set up? | 05:09 |
| WrathOfAchilles | Also, are you sure it's not your client that cached the name? | 05:09 |
| inetpro | WrathOfAchilles: I didn't register the channel because when I joined again later I was not alone and had no OP rights | 08:23 |
| inetpro | btw, I tried reproducing the case issue by creating a channel #MyNewChannel with mixed case using Quassel, but it creates the channel with all small letters, so it must have been someone else who's client forced the mixed case | 08:23 |
| inetpro | also, one thing that I have learned many years ago is to stick to lower-case naming conventions as far as possible, thus not me who created the mixed case channel name ;-) | 08:29 |
| Kilos | morning guys | 09:24 |
| Kilos | that channel is causing so many probs | 09:24 |
| Kilos | maybe unitcan delete that one and you start from scratch inetpro | 09:25 |
| Kilos | oh WrathOfAchilles sorry | 09:25 |
| Kilos | pavel worked there but i told him #ubuntu-africa so I dunno | 09:26 |
| Kilos | he is missing in action since then | 09:26 |
| inetpro | Kilos: there's no problem with the channel, the case issue that I raised with WrathOfAchilles is not a big deal, it's purely a interesting little irritation for me | 10:10 |
| inetpro | anybody who struggles connecting to channel with a typical IRC client can always choose to connect with the web client at https://web.libera.chat/ | 10:11 |
| WrathOfAchilles | inetpro: Was ChanServ still set on guard when everyone left? | 10:11 |
| inetpro | the channel is just not registered and thus not protected from takeover yet | 10:12 |
| WrathOfAchilles | That's super easy to solve, I could do that then give you founder. | 10:12 |
| inetpro | WrathOfAchilles: sounds good, let's get it done and move on | 10:14 |
| WrathOfAchilles | inetpro: Done. | 10:17 |
| inetpro | thanks WrathOfAchilles | 10:18 |
| inetpro | there you go Kilos , your channel is now guarded by ChanServ | 10:19 |
| WrathOfAchilles | Happy to help. | 10:19 |
| Kilos | thank you gguys | 10:54 |
| Kilos | I mailed some of them to join up again | 11:02 |
| Kilos | hopefully this time they spread the word. Last time I had to go and invite each of them personally | 11:03 |
