arraybolt3Is there any chance someone can DM a user named "AssTractionHero" (present in both #ubuntu and #kubuntu) and ask them to change their nick?18:35
Eickmeyerarraybolt3: Since nicknames are network-wide, and since it's not breaking any network rules, there's nothing we can do.20:26
arraybolt3In the past other ops have requested individuals to change their network-wide nick because they were in a room which that nick violated a rule of.20:46
arraybolt3If they don't want to change their nick, can't they simply leave the room?20:46
EickmeyerIt's not a considerably offensive nick. If it was, we'd be more concerned.20:49
arraybolt3I think the fact that someone is reporting it to you should be evidence that it's offensive enough for someone to notice and want it rectified.20:50
EickmeyerI've got one person vs two other people telling me it's not offensive enough.20:51
arraybolt3I guess that's valid.20:51
arraybolt3In that case I'll drop it. But do keep in mind some of your users may be more sensitive than you think :)20:51
