elisa87 2017-03-07 10:48:00
hi when I access pidgin IRC from Ubuntu it says it is banned
Zppix 2017-03-07 10:48:02
puddingflaps: wait around one will be shortly
elisa87 2017-03-07 10:48:03
why is it?
elisa87 2017-03-07 10:48:11
I need to be connected from there
puddingflaps 2017-03-07 10:48:13
bigpresh: cloak
elisa87 2017-03-07 10:48:35
it says disconnected, ERROR: closing link: 144.92.237.227
elisa87 2017-03-07 10:48:41
(**banned)
bigpresh 2017-03-07 10:48:58
elisa87: Sounds like your IP is klined, I'll have a look in a moment.
bigpresh 2017-03-07 10:49:06
puddingflaps: Sure thing, let me have a look
elisa87 2017-03-07 10:49:21
what does that mean bigpresh
elisa87 2017-03-07 10:49:23
?
dax 2017-03-07 10:49:29
bigpresh: Your IRC client was repeatedly joining/quitting. Did you fix it?
dax 2017-03-07 10:49:31
erm
dax 2017-03-07 10:49:32
elisa87: even
elisa87 2017-03-07 10:50:15
oh I don't know why would that happen. I had no problem like 10 hours ago I came to work with it now and saw it happened
elisa87 2017-03-07 10:50:19
dax
bigpresh 2017-03-07 10:50:27
puddingflaps : All done - one cloak, thrown together artisinally by orphans using the finest badger fur in a beautiful shade of orange. Enjoy!
elisa87 2017-03-07 10:50:30
can someone fix it for me?
puddingflaps 2017-03-07 10:50:48
bigpresh: appreciated!
elisa87 2017-03-07 10:50:57
I find it very helpful for me when I am on Ubuntu
bigpresh 2017-03-07 10:51:08
elisa87: we can remove the kline for you, but if your client repeatedly joins/parts channels again it'll likely get klined again
dax 2017-03-07 10:51:23
elisa87: alrighty. network ban removed. plus what bigpresh just said.
duplicated 2017-03-07 10:51:57
hi dax, can I ask about the unaffiliated cloak?
dax 2017-03-07 10:52:40
duplicated: yep, done. It's active now and will also activate on future connections when you identify to NickServ
leo10 2017-03-07 10:52:47

if you constantly join and part a channel, you can't effictively use it, now can you?
duplicated 2017-03-07 10:53:10
Thank you very much dax
bigpresh 2017-03-07 10:53:22
leo10: Ask your bouncer provider to contact us regarding getting an iline
duplicated 2017-03-07 10:53:46
if you don't mind one question - I guess I should see it changed after a reconnect, right?
elisa87 2017-03-07 10:53:54
bigpresh I was in like 10 channels (bash, linux, ubuntu, python, php , etc) is that a problem? daxx
bigpresh 2017-03-07 10:53:55
leo10: They'd need to email ilines@freenode.net with details and an abuse contact etc, and we can help them out
dax 2017-03-07 10:54:27
elisa87: no, rapidly joining and leaving/quitting is
dax 2017-03-07 10:54:27
duplicated: it's also changed now. see /whois duplicated, first line is public, "is connecting from" line is only shown to you and staff
elisa87 2017-03-07 10:54:27
do you know what exactly happened? have I been hacked?
bigpresh 2017-03-07 10:54:36
elisa87: It could just be a flaky connection, or the poor excuse for an IRC client you're using :)
dax 2017-03-07 10:54:42
No, I don't know why a program on your computer decided to repeatedly connect and disconnect.
dax 2017-03-07 10:54:55
Likely reasons are 1) bad internet or 2) you're using the worst IRC client on the planet.
elisa87 2017-03-07 10:55:11
what do you mean by "or the poor excuse for an IRC client you're using" ?
Zppix 2017-03-07 10:55:17
dax: i love the second reason lol
elisa87 2017-03-07 10:55:26
what if my machine network got disconnected when I wasn't at work?
elisa87 2017-03-07 10:55:48
i am using pidgin, i like the way it shows tab in ubuntu and windows
duplicated 2017-03-07 10:55:48
I see it now, thanks again dax
elisa87 2017-03-07 10:55:59
what client do you suggest? I don't like limechat
Zppix 2017-03-07 10:56:25
elisa87: irccloud is cross platform
dax 2017-03-07 10:57:12
elisa87: hexchat.
elisa87 2017-03-07 10:57:32
which client is the best visually?
elisa87 2017-03-07 10:57:35
and design wise?
dax 2017-03-07 10:57:51
Those are personal opinions that you can figure out for yourself, and that #freenode is not going to be particularly helpful with.
Zppix 2017-03-07 10:57:52
elisa87: irccloud or icechat
dax 2017-03-07 10:58:46
considering that one of the people talking to you uses a command-line client and the other apparently thinks that using the WWW to connect to IRC is a good idea, we're *definitely* not going to be particularly helpful
bigpresh 2017-03-07 10:59:43
Many of us here are grumpy old farts who don't care if our client looks pretty, we care if it works well :)
irinix 2017-03-07 11:01:35
elisa87, I prefer hexchat, personally
entuland 2017-03-07 11:02:41
hello, if any op around has some spare time I would like an unaffiliated cloak please
Zppix 2017-03-07 11:02:51
dax: and for your information i use different clients sometimes it depends on my mood
dax 2017-03-07 11:04:23
entuland: done
dax 2017-03-07 11:04:27
Zppix: ok
entuland 2017-03-07 11:04:41
thank you very much dax!
elisa87 2017-03-07 11:06:59
ughhh why am I banned from bash?
elisa87 2017-03-07 11:07:01
;/
gry 2017-03-07 11:10:20
elisa87: you were join/quit flooding; query anyone with +o on "/cs access #bash list" to remove that
elisa87 2017-03-07 11:11:06
I don't know anyone there can someone do so?
elisa87 2017-03-07 11:11:20
plus it says I am elisa871
gry 2017-03-07 11:12:38
elisa87: at the moment you are elisa87. you don't have to know any of these persons, just message any and let them know that you no longer join/quit flood (as I see here, you're connected to freenode just fine; presumably you had connectivity issues in the past)

KindOne 2017-03-07 11:15:47
laowai: I can neither confirm nor deny that I had to do anything.
gry 2017-03-07 11:15:57

yousuck 2017-03-07 11:18:05
+m
KindOne 2017-03-07 11:18:20
yousuck: +m is moderated, it alone prevents anyone that is not +v or +o from speaking

yousuck 2017-03-07 11:22:34
theres like 1000000000000 users and only 12 of them talk
KindOne 2017-03-07 11:22:34
nikoteen: not everyone is on there computer and a lot of us leave ours running 24/7
KindOne 2017-03-07 11:22:34
think of it like a cellphone, people might have them but they are not chatting on them all the time
nikoteen 2017-03-07 11:22:34
yeah but 10 speakers and 1000000 users?...
reynhout 2017-03-07 11:22:34
hello lovely freenode people. i'd like to see about registering a group, should i contact nhandler or tomaw directly, or is the open channel the right place?
nikoteen 2017-03-07 11:22:34
seems odd..
KindOne 2017-03-07 11:22:45
only like 1550 users in here
KindOne 2017-03-07 11:23:04
not odd, its just normal
nikoteen 2017-03-07 11:23:08
u have to be specific ah?.. :/
nikoteen 2017-03-07 11:23:18
well if you say..
collin_5 2017-03-07 11:25:19

KindOne 2017-03-07 11:25:55
freenode staff are +o here
nikoteen 2017-03-07 11:26:43
what kind of questions are we asking here?
yousuck 2017-03-07 11:27:38
type /join # it redirects to ##unavialible
KindOne 2017-03-07 11:27:53
yousuck: thats normal

plus you cant talk in there
dannyv 2017-03-07 11:29:28

yousuck 2017-03-07 11:31:25
if you type /join #p3nis (with e instead of 3) it takes you to ##you_have_got_to_be_kidding
KindOne 2017-03-07 11:31:25
yousuck: yes, thats normal
dax 2017-03-07 11:31:25
yousuck: we do not need a running commentary, thanks
yousuck 2017-03-07 11:31:25
why does it do stuff like that
ZikZak 2017-03-07 11:31:25
because IoT
yousuck 2017-03-07 11:31:25
what does IOT mean
KindOne 2017-03-07 11:31:25
becasue this is freenode, not efnet
dax 2017-03-07 11:31:25
yousuck: because freenode is for peer-directed projects, and random stupid has an above-average chance of being hit with a cluebat
nikoteen 2017-03-07 11:31:53
IOT - isnt it internet of things?
tr5ad 2017-03-07 11:32:28
can i get someone to cloak me pls
KindOne 2017-03-07 11:33:25
nikoteen: yep
yousuck 2017-03-07 11:34:59
are there any easter eggs like hidden channels and stuff
dax 2017-03-07 11:34:59
tr5ad: done
Zppix 2017-03-07 11:34:59
yousuck: not technically easter eggs
tr5ad 2017-03-07 11:34:59
dax, u da man
yousuck 2017-03-07 11:34:59
well are there any
Zppix 2017-03-07 11:34:59
yousuck: hidden channels yes but they are just normal channels with a hidden flag
dax 2017-03-07 11:34:59
considering that there are 58,235 channels on freenode and hiding channels from lists is a standard irc feature, yes, there are hidden channels
dannyv 2017-03-07 11:34:59
KindOne: thanks!
yousuck 2017-03-07 11:34:59
but, are there EASTER EGGS?

Zppix 2017-03-07 11:34:59
yousuck: no
preaction 2017-03-07 11:34:59
no, it's not Easter for another 5 weeks
yousuck 2017-03-07 11:34:59
how can you get a list of all the channels
dax 2017-03-07 11:34:59
yes, there's an easter egg where if you're stupid enough to become a staffer the server says "And now to unleash insanity on your entire brain" at login
dax 2017-03-07 11:34:59
yousuck: /msg alis help list

Zppix 2017-03-07 11:35:37

gildarts: i am not, but i may have gotten the quote slightly wrong, not sure
Zppix 2017-03-07 11:35:54
collin_5: local are the people on the same server
collin_5 2017-03-07 11:36:19
oh thx
Zppix 2017-03-07 11:37:08
collin_5: global is all the users connected to freenode
dax 2017-03-07 11:37:46
ah, yes, i did
