User1: ok you guys might want to be aware of this
User1: #ubuntu-lovers  which they may be changing to ##ubuntu-lovers soon, someone advertised it a little while ago in #ubuntu
User1: told the person not to channel advertise in there,  and  joined the channel to suggest they changed to ##   and  I say something more about channel advertising, and then get booted,  so probably some kids running it or something
User1: oh well kicked  after re joining and not very nice kick messages
User1: it's archlinux trolls,  and I can pastebin stuff from the two channels if anyone wants it,  but your all away right now so hmm
User1: That's not a good thing when all the ops are away, because if people troll the channels now,  things can get pretty bad,  I have seen it before.
User2: sebsebseb, ops are around, they're just not participating in a discussion with you. i'm also certain that youve been asked many times before to stop bossing people around.
User2: bruenig, is there something i can help you with?
User3: User4 How can we help you?
User1: [01:07] <Harry_Mudd> all archusers get ops
User1: [01:07] <ben_m> We should advertise this and turn it into the ultimate troll channel
User1: two snippets,  could do the lot, but no one seems to care
User2: sebsebseb, stop.
User4: Pici, sorry, a friend asked me when help with something , and I needed to check the channel mode to answer him :)
User5: just hanging out
User2: bruenig, this isnt a channel to just hang out in.
User5: oh
User5: um
User5: so how you guys doing
User4: Pici, anyway, i'll be off now :) o/
User1: I was just trying to help,  anyway  I am about to leave here
User2: sebsebseb, helping would have been reporting without having poked the beehive with the flaming stick first.
User1: User2 well how could I of done that?
User3: User5 This channel is for dealing with issues relating to the Ubuntu IRC community only, if theres nothing you have pertaining to that, we have a no idling polciy.
User2: come in here and said the first two lines, without going into the channel and bossing them around
User5: oh
User5: ok so someone came into #ubuntu-lovers and was messing with us, I don't know if you guys have control over that
User2: bruenig, there's staff and irc ops in there. they'll see the logs when they wake up
User5: hmm
User1: #ubuntu-lovers is unoffical isn't it?
User5: is it?
User5: I don't even know
User2: sebsebseb, stop interferring
User1: User2 I suggested they changed to  ##  I didn't boss them around, as  the whole  chat log would show
User5: oh not you sebsebseb
User5: you were doing alright
User2: sebsebseb, that is precisely bossing them around and interferring.
User1: User2 ok  I see,  well I didn't reolize that
User2: sebsebseb, you've passed on information, we will handle it from here. next time come to us first.
User3: User1 Thanks for reporting it though, just keep in mind the points that elky mentioned in the future.
User5: I agree with Pici and elky
User1: User2 ok
User2: sebsebseb, bye
User1: yep bye
User2: bruenig, why are you here?
User5: what?
User2: you've come here to complain about the #ubuntu-lovers channel being a troll channel?
User5: oh
User5: no
User5: so someone told me PriceChild was doing something or other
User5: I didn't realy know what was going on
User2: so why were you in the channel that sebsebseb reported?
User5: I am in the ## one
User5: it is registered and such, someone there was talking about #ubuntu-lovers, thought you guys might know
User5: wanted to see what was going on by checking out the discussion you see
User2: you are aware that you would need to get trademark approval to use the name of ubuntu, right?
User5: I didn't register that channel
User2: ok, so you have no other business here?
User5: um
User6: User5 Thankyou for making us aware of that channel. I'm unsure what you expect us to do about it. Have a good day.
User5: would you need approval for unofficial?
User5: I mean ## is unofficial namespace isn't it?
User5: like ##windows
User5: ?
User6: User5 http://freenode.net/policy.shtml#channelnaming https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcTeam/ChannelNaming
User2: bruenig, trademark is above channel naming policies. Canonical gets to choose how its trademark is used.
User5: hmm
User5: I am not so sure this qualifies, not like they are using logos or anything. It is clearly a community of ubuntu lovers. They don't control anyone who uses the word ubuntu. I mean what if a news story talked about ubuntu. They wouldn't be infringing.
User2: it's not clearly, actually. it appears to be a channel of archlinux people who are going to troll ubuntu channels.
User5: its a weird channel, not sure what is going on
User2: well if you have no further business here, we ask that you respect our no-idling policy
User5: hmm
User5: you guys are secretive!
User5: always idling in other channels logging, but not allowed here it seems
User3: Logs of this channel, oh nevermind.
User7: *sigh*
User2: oh, and bilbo sobered up...
User2: <Bilbo_Ba1gins> Oh, elky.....I'm sober now.  Here is a nice unique way to express myself.  Go FUCK your self, and keep up the good work....inbreeding does wonders for your children.  Tell your sister / wife I said hi.
User3: Hrm. The same guy who is advertizing for ##ubuntu-lovers is the fellow who had joined the bot to #ubuntu earlier
User2: so surprising.
User8: hmm
User8: ##ubuntu-lovers is invite only
User3: Its also owned by staff now.
User2: yes, well it became obvious we were willing to invade
User8: did it get shut down? freenode-staff seems to be the owner
User8: why advertise and make it invite only at the same time?
User8: heh, now it forwards to ##unavailable
User2: [jesus]abyrne55, hi. so could you explain why you were creating an ubuntu channel?
User2: and this is also the reason you were joining bots to our channels earlier?
User2: !guidelines
User9: The guidelines for using the Ubuntu channels can be found here: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines
User2: ok, since you're new, you might want to read the guidelines the bot has just listed. it'll help prevent problems in the future, ok?
User7: [jesus]abyrne55: don't lie to us
User7: try the other leg, [jesus]abyrne55
User7: do not spam on freenode
User7: do not clone on freenode
User8: So is the channel closed or did it just get locked down by the owner?
 * Amaranth is confused at this point
User7: User8 ##ubuntu-lovers was inhabited by (surprisingly enough) the archlinux crew that has been trolling #ubuntu*
User8: So part of learning what you're doing is making a channel and inviting trolls?
User2: [jesus]abyrne55, did you not figure anything was wrong when people were discussing trolling channels?
User2: [01:07] <ben_m> We should advertise this and turn it into the ultimate troll channel
User7: myself and pricey have channel logs of ##ubuntu-lovers where they are quite outside the freenode network guidelines
User9: MenZa called the ops in #ubuntu-offtopic (f7ee_)
User9: Grant-A called the ops in #ubuntu-offtopic ()
User9: sebsebseb called the ops in #ubuntu (doubled)
User7: User9 tell doubled about guidelines
User7: User9 tell doubled about coc
User10: can someone please have a word with "a" in #ubuntu... he seems to think that dualboot linux and windows can break the nic in windows
User11: any way
User12: User11 can we help you?
User12: Guest15064: can we help you?
User12: !idle | phix, Guest15064
User9: phix, Guest15064: Please keep in mind that this channel is for operator/abuse questions only; we ask you to part when you have no further business here in order to keep track of users with pending inquiries.
User2: Guest15064, is stew, he can stay.
User13: did stew fail? :p
User2: he did.
User12: right, saw that afterwards :)
User12: sorry, Guest15064
User13: kick him anyways
User12: phix?
User9: In ubottu, Threetimes said: my name is Peter
User14: hrm, tomorrow to friday Im away on a boating trip, if I dont come back you know Ive drowned. :P
User2: you'd damned well better make your back-ness known after that
User14: hehe
User13: User14 don't do a gary
User13: (I disappeared for a few days and the other staff were worried, called my parents and were about to call the police)
User2: haha
User14: User13 thats why Im notifying people..

User13: (and I got the blame)
User2: haha

User15: erm, so this u-l channel happiness is evolving, eh?
User16: User15 how's that?
User17: nick:oscarhacksordo, #ubuntu, trolling in mock spanish. "me tarzan, you jane"-style spanish. doesn't leave.
User17: bye
User17: nick:Virtus, #ubuntu. spamming the same message on purpose. bye
User15: User16 just did read this channels backlog
User16: User15 oh
User9: prince_jammys called the ops in #ubuntu (oscarhacksordo : troll, speaking in mock spanish.)
User14: Bodsda|away: As I understand it, and I may be wrong, the issue is that we havent iplemented a system for freenodes webchat yet. You can however, join #ubuntu using mibbit.
User14: Bodsda|away: also, just FYI we discourage the use f away nicks
User18: User14 thanks for the info. I may be wrong, but I believe freenode has banned the use of mibbit.
User14: User18 no, freenode have restricted the use of mibbit in #freenode, not across the whole network
User14: AFAIK
User18: User14 ah, I see. Cheers for the info then. I'l leave you guys in peace :)
User14: User18 no probs. I hope I have been helpful. :)
User14: meh
User7: User14 we no longer allow mibbit to connect to the network - due to abuse
User14: User7 oh? ok then... :/
 * jussi01 sighs, goes back to his hole.
User19: Hi, just wanted to ask if users' bots are allowed in #ubuntu. (If not, alteregoa is one.)
User7: alteregoa isn't a bot, but a mirc client with some questionable scripts / owner
User9: FloodBot2 called the ops in #ubuntu-ops-monitor (exploit)
User9: FloodBot3 called the ops in #ubuntu-ops-monitor (exploit)

User20: thanks to irssi failing

User22: is this a good place to reach irc council members ?
User21: sure is
User21: or you can mail them
User22: User21 just that someone registered #ubuntu-novatos
User22: User21 i think that #ubuntu* namespace is somewhat reserved
User22: See here... niko noticed it http://paste.ubuntu.com/222204/
User21: User22 handy enough, that will get picked up in the back log, I'm sure one of the council members/freenode staff will note it
User21: thank you
User22: no problem...
User21: User14 Pici Pricey nalioth elky ^^
User21: there we go
User22: as m4v noted in #ubuntu-irc is a new user that just joined today to ask about linux in general in #ubuntu-es
User14: User22 hi
User22: hi
User14: you were after me?
User22: no; just reporting the registering of #ubuntu-novatos
User22: User14 read what i said to ikonia... you can check #ubuntu-irc too if you iddle there
User14: ahh, ok then. thank you. if you need the irc council in future, you can join #ubuntu-irc-council
User14: Anyway, Ill let nalioth or Pricey deal with that for now, as Im headed to bed.
