I need to configure ircd-hybrid. I can make a connection, but logging in seems to not work. <Pici> lordpsyan: Well, if you have a look at the /topic , you can see that this isn't really the right place either. The folks in #freenode should be able to point you in the right direction for finding the channel for that. <lordpsyan> Pici: Thanks. <compengi> how many ubuntu helping bots for loco teams you got? <jpds> compengi: We have ubottu (main bot) and ubot3 (backup). <nizarus> compengi, for loco teams we got locobot_4 to log conversations <nizarus> but these days nothing is logged <jpds> nizarus: Oh?

Earning your bad reputation points? Something like that. <pressenter> Than you called me an as*hole, which i am but still, you lied to me, thats why that ban is staying. <xien> that was not a lie but misunderstaning, now i see it and admit: she didn't als say that she was offended <xien> it is *you* who considered this as an offence <xien> but that was not all <xien> then i was offended by her calling me an idiot on that channel you've banned me for an "offence" <xien> but you refused to ban her <xien> what's wrong? some people are treated more fair, and another less fair? why don't you follow your own rules? <pressenter> Well, after calling me an as*hole, you can easily see that i had no trouble in understanding her point of view. ;) <pressenter> Yet, please continue. <xien> primo: i called you an asshole *after* you've banned me <xien> secundo: i did it in private message, not channel, cause that was my private opinion about you <pressenter> Yet, you argued with that user that pole dancing is not offending. ;) <pressenter> What was she suppose to say? <xien> not argued, but wanted to discuss with her <pressenter> "Oh, sorry, youre right, im dreaming about this"? <xien> yes, you are <xien> i was asking her about opinion of your ban <xien> and liked her to admit that pole dancing is nothing offending <xien> remember that she *didn't* say she was offended, and i still feel offended by her calling me an idiot <pressenter> Which she dod not. <xien> yes, she did say that <pressenter> *did <pressenter> You mean to tell me, that she did admit that pole dancing is nothing offending? <xien> no, she didn't want discuss about that <xien> ok, consider this: calling someone "pole dancer" isn't an offence in this country, it's more like a joke <pressenter> Which country? <xien> in your country, and mine: poland * Myrtti lols <bazhang> irc-land <Myrtti> hah. Pole dancer *cough* <pressenter> Its a lame irc joke, and only when you say it to a guy. <Myrtti> if you say so <pressenter> I think so, correct me if im wrong. <xien> and when you say it to a girl it may mean that she expresses her sexuality (which that woman *did* not once, not twice - showing her pictures on a channel) <Myrtti> I find it funny though - we do have pole dancing studios here for excersising in Finland <pressenter> Myrtti: Hah, that one i did not know. xD <pressenter> Myrtti: Yet still, the sense of his words was a bit else, if you know what i mean. <Myrtti> yeah, apparently it's quite hip and cool in Hollywood as sports or excersice * Myrtti shrugs <Myrtti> Pole dancer thing was funny though <Myrtti> as a separate issue <Myrtti> I lolled :-P <xien> :) <xien> pressenter: please don't force your understanding, remember the context <pressenter> I do remembre it. <xien> a person came and ask for help, girl said that she doesn't know about ubuntu, i've said that she only dances pole here <pressenter> Or are you going to tell me now that the context was pole excersise? <xien> nothing offending about that <pressenter> Besides we are here because we do not know what to do with this situation. <pressenter> We would be glad if some staff would hell. <pressenter> *help <pressenter> Should that ban stay or shall i take it off? <xien> pressenter: it's not about this ban only <xien> its about you being inconsequential <xien> ban her for offending me or unban me as i didn't offend her <pressenter> xien: Now you should tell me what other nicks are you using on ubuntu-pl. <pressenter> She has been banned, but youre not, cause you are still sitting there under some other nicks. <pressenter> Please give them to me, so i can ban them too. <jpds> ubot5: join #ubuntu-ir <pressenter> Thought so. <xien> she was banned and unbanned a minute after that, so she can join - my ban still stays <pressenter> She was unbanned 10 minutes later. <pressenter> I told you, give me your other nicks. <pressenter> You said nothing. <pressenter> You request consequence of me, but refuse it yourself. <xien> she was unbanned and can join - i still can't with my main nickname and you know it <pressenter> Yet still you are there, and you know it, you told me that straight "in the eyes". <xien> yes, i want to see her joining channel to prove it that she can <pressenter> Erm... lol? <pressenter> 10:48 -!- mode/#ubuntu-pl [-b *!*=szkodnik@*.ssp.dialog.net.pl] by pressenter <xien> still remember that i didn't offend her so there was no reason to ban me - which started all this stupid discussion <pressenter> Was that a problem? * Myrtti sighs <pressenter> Myrtti: Should i take off his ban? <Myrtti> I'm a bit lost with what is going on and what has happened - but you both seem to be having "assume bad faith" thing here <Myrtti> neither trusts one another <xien> well... i must admit that i expected more positive solution from pressenter <xien> he seem to be prejudiced somehow to me <Myrtti> and so do you <Myrtti> with your extra nicks on -pl <Myrtti> pan, meet kettle <xien> :) <bazhang> pot * Myrtti rolls her eyes <pressenter> Ech, i ain;t got time for this ish. <Myrtti> whatEVAH <xien> seems that i've been unbanned <xien> thank you <jpds> ubot5: join #ubuntu-ie <jpds> ubot5: join #ubuntu-my <Nafallo> lol.

That's all that can be done <no0tic> bye, thanks <filo1234> Mez: but if sometimes we don' t want fb in -ops we can to make something? <Mez> why would you not want it in there? <elkbuntu> filo1234, make a #ubuntu-it-bots or #ubuntu-it-monitor channel then <filo1234> Mez: because speaking always :) <Mez> filo1234, ask for it to be put in a different monitor channel then. <Mez> And the fact its dangerous to have it in there, as anyone can play with it ... which isn't a good thing <filo1234> Mez: but in -ops fb dont' t stop flood send only message from -it <filo1234> so about her status or about nick muted <Mez> filo1234, indeed... thats because it's had that channel set as the monitor channel <Mez> (see #ubuntu-ops-monitor) <filo1234> Mez: so have some guide for know better fb functions? <Mez> no, it's not documented... you need to speak to ljl and get him to sort you our. <filo1234> ok <elkbuntu> emailing is probably the best way to get ljl, he's not responsive in irc these days <filo1234> is in holiday :) <elkbuntu> i think just distracted by that real life thing <Myrtti> Thang. <Mez> It's the internation ops team channell... * PriceChild waves at filo1234 <ompaul> filo1234, hi there, did not know you <ompaul> so I normally ask anyone I don't know "how can we ..." and then we take it from there <filo1234> ompaul: np :) <filo1234> my name is Filippo <filo1234> nice to meet you <ompaul> hi there <ompaul> well as you can guess - first name is paul second part o'malley <filo1234> my second part is Meloni :) <Syntux> Where can I get ubot source code? <Syntux> and database. <jussi01> !botclone > Syntux <Syntux> jussi01, so it's not eggdrop bot? <jussi01> Syntux: no. <jussi01> its supybot <Syntux> so we have to install Supybot and load ubuntu tweaks to it <Syntux> cool <Syntux> Thanks <Myrtti> just out of curiosity, which channel are you setting it up to? <Syntux> Myrtti, #Ubuntu-Arabic <Syntux> and Arabic LoCos channels * elkbuntu notes that if it's language based, it should be #ubuntu-xxxxx where the xxxxx is the language code <Syntux> Myrtti, Can we cloake Ubuntu-arabic nickname account? <Myrtti> I wouldn't know <Syntux> whom should I ask ? <ompaul> Syntux, there is only ubuntu in the ubuntu community <ompaul> !sa <ubottu> For the Arabic language or Saudi Arabia you are invited to join ÙÙØºØ© Ø§ÙØ¹Ø±Ø¨ÙØ© Ø±Ø¬Ø§Ø¡ Ø§ÙØ¸Ù #ubuntu-sa <Syntux> ompaul, This is going to change soon, this is why we're building ubuntu-arabic team. <ompaul> Syntux, ok, however there is no ubuntu-countrycode cloak only ubuntu cloak <Syntux> ompaul, This is what I'm asking for, Ubuntu BOT cloak, ubuntu/bot/ubuntu-arabic <ompaul> Syntux, ahhhh that is possible <Syntux> ompaul, lovely :-) <Syntux> ompaul, not for me but for Ubuntu-Arabic nickname :D <ompaul> but I am thinking I think <ompaul> let me look <Syntux> heh ok <jussi01> no, bots dont get ubuntu cloaks <ompaul> /ubuntu/bot/owner/arabic <jussi01> you can get unaffiliated- see ubottu <Syntux> According to the wiki https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcTeam/Cloaks they do ? <jussi01> hrm...
