| [10:50] <jpds> hi huats, how many I assist you? | |
| [10:50] <huats> hi | |
| [10:50] <huats> :) | |
| [10:50] <huats> I am the leader of the french loco and we have so pb on our IRC... it is a freenode related pb, but I sure some of you have good connections with theur staff | |
| [10:50] <huats> :) | |
| [10:51] <jpds> pb? | |
| [10:51] <huats> we are facing a very annoying pb : on our main channel (#ubuntu-fr) we are near the ban limit | |
| [10:52] <huats> we have already reach that limit, and with lots of clean in it, we have some ban slot available... | |
| [10:52] <huats> but it will just last for some time... | |
| [10:52] <huats> we know about the +L mode, which is allowed by freenode staff | |
| [10:53] <huats> we contacted them about that | |
| [10:53] <huats> but they are not answering ... | |
| [10:53] <jpds> Ah, what you need... it the +L mode yes. | |
| [10:53] <huats> (we have deal with nalioth, who is not answering us anymore...) | |
| [10:54] <huats> definitly | |
| [10:54] <huats> we know by instance that our german friends has the +L mode... | |
| [10:54] <huats> so it is possible to get it :) | |
| [10:54] <jpds> elkbuntu: Are you around to poke staff? ^ | |
| [10:55] <huats> can anyone here, help us :) | |
| [10:55] <huats> thanks jpds | |
| [10:55] <jpds> huats: Yeah, I think we have to ask the IRC Council to poke staff on your behalf... which I just did. | |
| [10:55] <huats> ok thanks | |
| [10:59] <jpds> huats: Why is #ubuntu-fr set to private? | |
| [11:00] <huats> jpds: let me check :) | |
| [11:00] <jpds> Flags : SECURE GUARD PRIVATE | |
| [11:00] <huats> jpds: i mean, let me ask the question to one of the guy who is dealing with our irc channel :) | |
| [11:02] <huats> jpds: one of the guy is about to come and explain :) | |
| [11:02] <Zic> hi | |
| [11:02] <huats> jpds: Zic is one of them :) | |
| [11:03] <jpds> ohh, hi Zic | |
| [11:04] <huats> Zic can you explain a bit to jpds the reason of the PRIVATE Flag on #ubuntu-fr ? | |
| [11:05] <Zic> jpds: Long time ago (in a far far galaxy… hem, no), we are +o only when it is requires, like Freenode philosophy want it | |
| [11:06] <jpds> Zic: You do not requiere PRIVATE to be set for that. | |
| [11:06] <Zic> jpds: yes, I can desactivate it if you want, it just an old flag :) | |
| [11:06] <Zic> (because new users query operators and say "please, give me operator privileges") | |
| [11:07] <jpds> Zic: It's just that when someone tries: /msg ChanServ access #ubuntu-fr list - to ask an op for help, he/she cannot see who's an op. | |
| [11:07] <Zic> now, we are +o when a lot of people are chating, to prevent from abuse | |
| [11:07] <jpds> You are not authorized to perform this operation. | |
| [11:07] <Zic> jpds: we have a !ops factoids on #ubuntu-fr which advertise us | |
| [11:08] <Zic> but I can remove this flag, no problem | |
| [11:09] <Zic> we have a private channel for moderator only, where users can chatting with ops about a problem of moderation | |
| [11:09] <Zic> flag was removed now | |
| [11:09] <jpds> Hmm, ok | |
| [11:11] <elkbuntu> huats, is it not possible to clear some of the bans? | |
| [11:11] <elkbuntu> huats, freenode is always reluctant to lift the limit | |
| [11:11] <huats> elkbuntu: hi | |
| [11:11] <Zic> elkbuntu: hi, we clean banlist all of week-ends | |
| [11:11] <huats> elkbuntu: we already clear the list many times | |
| [11:12] <huats> but we always get the same ones who comes back... a few days after | |
| [11:12] <huats> and ban them again... | |
| [11:12] <Zic> (we also clear some old bans, but sometimes users who was banned rejoin the channel, and do bad stuff…) | |
| [11:13] <huats> elkbuntu: I can clearly understand that freenode is reluctant about lifting the limit | |
| [11:13] <huats> but I think we prouved that we are wise in banning... the thing is that we are such a big Loco that this limit is a bit low for us... | |
| [11:15] <elkbuntu> huats, so there's no dynamic addresses in the list? | |
| [11:16] <Zic> elkbuntu: It is not end of week yet, but I can take a look now if you want | |
| [11:17] <Zic> I have remove 2 bans, one dynamic IP, and an old ban | |
| [11:18] <Zic> I don't find other dynamic bans… | |
| [11:18] <huats> elkbuntu: regarding the dynamic/static adresse, Zic know it more than I do | |
| [11:19] <Zic> s/dynamic bans/dynamic IP/ sorry | |
| [11:24] <Zic> this morning, we have 41bans/50, after cleaning, we have 38 bans now | |
| [11:24] <Zic> the limit of 50 bans is too close… | |
| [11:28] <elkbuntu> huats, i've directed a staffer cto contact you when they have a moment | |
| [11:28] <huats> he already did | |
| [11:28] <huats> thanks elkbuntu | |
| [11:28] <huats> :) | |
| [11:28] <elkbuntu> no prob. sorry it was slow. i was cooking dinner | |
| [11:29] <Zic> elkbuntu: thanks | |
| [11:30] <huats> elkbuntu: no pb | |
