[15:39] <sat> did you just say "i know your policy but i'm going to violate it because i feel
[15:39] <Alup> i always google first
[15:39] <Alup> no
[15:39] <Alup> this is just one of the most active rooms
[15:39] <rickcp> sure sounds that way
[15:40] <sat> with "no", do you perhaps mean "yes" ?
[15:40] <Alup> oh i apoligize
[15:40] <Osc> 2dn and 3rd hits look like answers to me
[15:40] <rickcp> did you try the 26000 other channels?
[15:40] <Alup> i will refrain from doing that again
[15:40] <Alup> sorry
[15:40] <tomalak> moron
[15:40] <Osc> I searched google but paid no attn to the results
[15:41] <tomalak> heh
[15:41] <tomalak> Osc I was going to ask you a favour the other day
[15:41] <tomalak> however I no longer have the slightest clue what that was
[15:42] <tomalak> the end
[15:42] <Osc> next time, try this
[15:42] <Osc> Osc: hey can you bla bla bla
[15:43] <Osc> whne I return, highlighting will giud me to whatever
[15:43] <Osc> er, guide
[15:45] <tomalak> well I think I came up with it whilst I was out and about

[15:57] * diarrhea diarrhea
[15:57] * diarrhea bowel movement
[15:58] <_flake> i take it no one has the ip/hostname he used the last time?
[15:59] <Osc> glimed
[16:02] <tomalak> heh, I remember him
[16:02] <tomalak> wonder what he gets out of it
[16:04] <qwerty-> relief?
[16:04] <sat> yea, was about to say that that was the wrong question to ask
[16:05] <tomalak> ew
[16:05] <sat> _flake: all .rcmdva.east.verizon.net by the looks of it, or do you need somethi
[16:07] <_flake> nop, thought it was most static than that
[16:08] <sat> his IPs come out of at least two completely different ranges
[16:09] <tomalak> maybe he was glimed from the state
[16:10] <_flake> pretty sure Osc meant glined
[16:18] * AtrumGues is now known as LgZ-optic
[16:23] <backdrop> i need a crack for mirc
[16:23] <backdrop> ?
[16:25] <tomalak> *sigh*
[16:25] <tomalak> _flake: glimed is just Osc's way of speaking
[16:25] <tomalak> so perhaps let him speak for himself :)
[16:27] <_flake> tomalak, maybe you should take your own advise
[16:27] <nvc> my mirc window seems to have an 'always on top' setting about it
[16:28] <nvc> it just started happening a week ago
[16:28] <nvc> anyone have any ideas of how i could get rid of this issue?
[16:28] <sat> alt+space ?
[16:28] <tomalak> _flake: don't test me
[16:28] <sat> _flake, tomalak: shut up, both of you
[16:28] <tomalak> no?
[16:28] <nvc> sat; awesome! shit i didn't know there was another pull down menu
[16:29] <nvc> thank you very much
[16:29] <sat> np
[16:29] <sat> tomalak: that wasnt a question
[16:34] <Osc> I say 'glimed' because the first time I ment to type 'glined' and I typo'd 'gli
[16:34] <Osc> so, instand meme
[16:34] <tomalak> it's immortalised, Osc
[16:35] <tomalak> http://www.quotesdb.info/efnet/mirc/10Apr2006/3.html <-- grep glimed
[16:35] <Osc> yes, and now I get to explain it every time :/
[16:35] <_flake> yeah, i know Osc, which i was simply pointing out when tomalak used the same
[16:35] <tomalak> well I was trying to explain that to _flake:P
[16:35] <tomalak> but as it turns out, he knows that anyway
[16:35] <tomalak> so the response becomes ... I didn't typo it, I think it sounds cool so I'v
[16:37] <Osc> interesting. in that, 2 of my other intentional screw ups are imortalized
[16:37] <Osc> yay
[16:38] <tomalak> and that's what you'll be remembered for
[16:38] <tomalak> nice legacy
[16:38] <Osc> 3 terms? *whew*
[16:39] <_flake> are you about to die Osc? :P
[16:39] <tomalak> no, screwups :)
[16:39] <Osc> _flake: nope. at least, I don't plan on it happening anytime soon
[16:39] <Osc> oh, right. thats much better
[16:46] <Raccoon> why is this channel being logged anyway
[16:46] <Osc> being logged isn't the issue, if you wanna make an issue of it
[16:49] * Mentalitt is now known as Mentality
[16:50] <Raccoon> if i want to make an issue of it, it isn't the issue?
[16:50] <Osc> nope. being online is the issue, not the logging
[16:50] <Raccoon> how do i correct?
[16:51] <Osc> easy: understand that irc isn't private
[16:54] <tomalak> also note that the site stopped logging in 2006
[16:54] <sat> good riddance
[16:54] <sat> people very much have an expectation of privacy on irc, which is what (imo, rig
[16:55] <tomalak> I appreciate the principle, but I can't believe anyone could honestly expec
[16:55] <tomalak> there is private messaging functionality and channel keys to maintain that
[16:56] <sat> so then why did quotesdb replace all the nicknames with numbers? is there perha
[16:57] <tomalak> I have no idea
[16:57] <tomalak> you'd have to ask them
[16:57] <tomalak> obviously such steps can be taken by site owners if they so choose to reduc
[16:58] <tomalak> that doesn't mean I like it either, though... I'll bitch about it to. I jus
[16:58] <tomalak> too*
[16:58] <sat> one could also argue that irc is by nature a transient medium, and as such, mes
[16:58] <tomalak> speech is a transient medium yet look at recording devices
[16:59] <_flake> recording someones conversation without them knowing/agreeing to it is illeg
[16:59] <tomalak> yes but repeating something they've said in public isn't
[16:59] <tomalak> actually now that I think about it, I'm not sure about the recording.
[17:00] <tomalak> cops routinely get confessions by wiring themselves, and that seems to alwa
[17:00] <_flake> it is in the uk
[17:00] <tomalak> maybe
[17:00] <tomalak> still the above stands
[17:00] <_flake> well obviously for law enforcement theres another rule
[17:01] <_flake> and im pretty sure they need some sort of lawfull reason
[17:01] <Siefer414> probable cause they need
[17:04] <Raccoon> there's a difference between a paranoia level of privacy, and applied priva
[17:05] <Osc> I apply privacy right after I shower
[17:05] <Raccoon> applied privacy includes the expected limits of logs remaining on other par
[17:05] <w0t> http://rafb.net/p/7SnrYX15.html <- can someone tell me why this doesn't clos
[17:05] <Osc> If I could get a newspaper to publish my logs...
[17:05] <Siefer414> L
[17:05] <_flake> ive always accepted that a channel with +p/s set, is private, and it shouldn
[17:06] <w0t> :o
[17:06] <Raccoon> there's no reason why practical levels of privacy can't be enjoyed without
[17:06] <w0t> i won't post a link again.
[17:06] <sat> w0t basically you have to put the whole block of code into an extra pair of { }
[17:06] <Osc> w0t: just don't join and paste right off, as that is what spammers do
[17:06] <sat> on *:connect:{ ....... }
[17:07] <w0t> right Osc, i just got used to that from #help
[17:07] <w0t> oh cheers ^^
[17:07] <_flake> hmmm
[17:08] <w0t> you could perhaps put some exceptions in that auto-ban to allow for widely used
[17:08] <sat> Modoc would have to do that himself..
[17:08] <_flake> you know what would be nice, being able to click any urls in topics that are
[17:08] <sat> not a bad idea tho
[17:09] <w0t> _flake, what is the channel central? :o
[17:09] <_flake> double click this channel window :>
[17:09] <w0t> oh that
[17:10] <w0t> sat, cheers, i was expecting the oposite reply :v
[17:10] <sat> :)
[17:10] <w0t> well _flake wouldn't it be nicer to have them as blue, underlined links?
[17:12] <_flake> if there going to be a colour, id prefer to be able to select the colour mys
[17:12] <Modoc> this is the 1st time I have seen a rafb.net listed
[17:13] <w0t> sure
[17:14] <tomalak> yea it's rare in here
[17:14] <tomalak> i was just thinking that
[17:14] <tomalak> nn
[17:15] <sat> nn indeed
[17:17] <R|der> how to make autoresize (width) of dialog box
[18:05] <Raccoon> rafb pastes are uncommon here?
[18:12] <R|der> how to make autoresize (width) of dialog box.. anyone
[18:21] <aidfyu> how do you join # channel after you been banned?
[18:21] <etotheipi> Wait to be unbanned.
[18:21] <diabolic> that'd defeat the purpose of a ban
[18:21] <etotheipi> Isn't that what +e is for? :P
[18:21] <aidfyu> there is a way
[18:22] <diabolic> /msg <operator's nickname> pls sir unban me plz
[18:22] <_flake> joining a channel that youve been banned on, will only get you banned again
[18:24] <argv[0]> aidfyu we're like, totally going to tell you, omg
[18:24] <argv[0]> i left the instructions on a card right outside the door on the right
[18:25] <argv[0]> hush hush
[18:25] <bookz`> you said that just as the song i'm listening to said that argv.
[18:25] <bookz`> "hush hush"
[18:25] <argv[0]> im omnipotent
[18:25] <bookz`> np: Kajagoogoo - Too Shy (1983) (.977 The 80s Channel)

[18:28] <bookz`> mind*
[19:11] <terrafire> «T» anyone know the code to automatically query somebody that enters a ro
[19:13] <Osc> sure. /quit

[19:13] <argv[0]> gj
[19:14] <etotheipi> was that nnscript's bastard child?
[19:15] <argv[0]> tmscript
[19:15] <argv[0]> too much script.
[19:15] <etotheipi> just wait until the day TRON and IRC merge
[19:16] <etotheipi> light cycle races to avoid being deopped might just work
[19:25] <rickcp> that was impressive
[20:04] <Toyota> Has anyone mentioned any mouse scrolling issues in mIRC after installing SP3
[20:04] <argv[0]> which version
[20:04] <Toyota> 6.3
[20:05] <argv[0]> there were some mouse scrolling complaints in that version afaik
[20:05] <Toyota> It will scroll up
[20:05] <Toyota> But back down requires a few trie
[20:05] <Toyota> d
[20:05] <Toyota> s
[20:05] <Toyota> Okay
[20:05] <Toyota> I'll update it then
[20:06] <Toyota> Updating Logitech at the moment

[20:06] <argv[0]> http://trout.snt.utwente.nl/ubbthreads/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Board=8&
[20:07] <argv[0]> high res mice..
[20:07] <argv[0]> sounds like the issue
[20:07] <argv[0]> (first one)
[20:08] <Toyota> Well that's an easy fix I suppose
[20:08] <Toyota> I forget why I went back from 6.31 to 6.3
[20:08] <bookz`> hey argv[0], say i wanted to trigger something at a specific time each night
[20:08] <Toyota> But anyway ...
[20:09] <argv[0]> it was fixed in 6.32+ it looks like
[20:09] <argv[0]> judging by the date posted
[20:09] <Toyota> Peachy
[20:09] <Toyota> I'll update it now
[20:09] <bookz`> like, backing up a log file
[20:09] <argv[0]> bookz` /help /timer
[20:09] <bookz`> unsure of the command
[20:09] <bookz`> oh it's just a timer?
[20:10] <argv[0]> yes look for how to trigger at a HH:NN time
[20:10] <bookz`> k ty
[20:22] <_Shdw-Knt> anyone know if there is a running data base showing split servers?
[20:22] <argv[0]> /links
[20:24] <_Shdw-Knt> argv: thank you.. how do I tell which ones are split if at all
[20:25] <Hrung> they disappear from the list
[20:26] <Hrung> excessive use of /links will get you kicked from the server
[20:26] <Toyota> New version of mIRC fixed it
[20:26] <Toyota> Yay
[20:27] <Shdw-Hme> wtf just happened
[20:27] <Toyota> Funny how that works eh
[20:27] <Shdw-Hme> I just got dropped from my bot
[20:27] <Shdw-Hme> I did /links and I just got totally dropped off irc
[20:28] <argv[0]> Shdw-Hme some servers dont like it.
[20:28] <argv[0]> youre too nosy.
[20:28] <Shdw-Hme> :c)
[20:29] <Shdw-Hme> well really I just want my damn nick back.. this asshat in a channel I use

[22:01] <anna-bot> ok i need a script to run at 0000 <-- 12:00am
[22:01] <anna-bot> what do i need to do?
[22:02] <anna-bot> ON *:TEXT:!start backup:#: { .timer9 00:00 1 1 }
[22:02] <anna-bot> right?
[22:03] <diabolic> .timer 00:00 1 0 somealias
[22:10] <Alup> ok yay may sound a bit noobish but how would i put it so that it runs?
[22:11] <Alup> oops
[22:11] <eduardo25> hello
[22:11] <Alup> ok i need a script to run at a certian time
[22:11] <Alup> and i dont know what i am doing obvislouly
[22:12] <eduardo25> you ok?
[22:12] <Alup> me?
[22:12] <Alup> ya
[22:12] <eduardo25> youlook crazy
[22:13] <Alup> ok...
[22:14] <Alup> i just need this script to run at a certian time
[22:14] <Alup> all it does is make a batch file run and has a little message
[22:17] <diabolic> i told you how
[22:17] <Alup> i know
[22:17] <Alup> but it didnt work
[22:17] <Alup> or i didnt understand
[22:17] <diabolic> how do you know it didn't work, did you wait until 12am?
[22:17] <Alup> no i changed the time to test it
[22:17] <diabolic> i see
[22:18] <Alup> 00:19
[22:18] <diabolic> /timer 13:19 1 0 echo -a OMG IT IS 1:19PM!!!
[22:18] * diabolic waits
[22:19] <diabolic> 13:18:46 * diabolic waits
[22:19] <diabolic> OMG IT IS 1:19PM!!!
[22:19] <diabolic> * Timer 2 halted
[22:19] <diabolic> works fine for me
[22:21] <Alup> http://paste-it.net/public/i630a4f/
[22:21] <Alup> that is my code
[22:25] <diabolic> that isn't how a timer works
[22:25] <Alup> ok...
[22:26] <Alup> can i make it work like that? or just so it will run that code at that time?
[22:27] <diabolic> http://paste-it.net/private/u8f92cc/
[22:27] <diabolic> try that
[22:28] <Alup> ok
[22:28] <diabolic> actually i'd prolly make it like
[22:28] <diabolic> on *:text:!daily backup:#: { .timer 00:06 1 1 dobackup # }
[22:28] <diabolic> err
[22:29] <diabolic> on *:text:!daily backup:#: { if (!$timer(backup)) { .timerbackup 00:06 1 1
[22:29] <diabolic> so that way you don't get 50 timers for the same time if someone types it
[22:29] <diabolic> it'll only set 1 timer
[22:30] <Alup> ok ty
[22:33] <LO_KEY> does /reload -rs script.mrc <<-- run both on start and on load, or jus
[22:33] <LO_KEY> ?
[22:33] <Alup> ok so like i guess my computer hates me because that dose not work either
