This is peculiar. Last night everything was fine, till I went away.
Now I enter IRC, and it says I've been banned. :wtf:
Please help me on this matter.
-
You sexually harassed a channel member via PM because you thought she was iamzack. You were reported.
-
Ah...perhaps this is something better discussed in private?

So I was reported.
However, the "sexual harassment" issue is obviously fake.
So can I be un-banned now?
-
Sorry, you bothered someone about their sexual orientation via PM and ticked off enough people that there were multiple ban requests. Nobody involved was an attention whore or would fake something.
-
It's fake, because it was not aimed at FSOSara.
How can this be solved? Any idea who banned me and how I can contact him?
-
Sure, I banned you, you're talking to me.
I'll ask for logs and review them.
-
The only thing I said to FSOSara that was what you might call "sexually harassing", was asking her if she was "optimally lesbian", a quote already spoken by Mars.

Say WHAT? I haven't been on in weeks bro. . .
-
This was actually long ago.
lol . . . iamzack is actually female, but is apparently optimally lesbian.
-
Battuta, please, stop this.

I seem to remember that. . . what was the context?
-
It was one of iamzack's threads.
-
Well if it makes you feel any better if you did that in a work environment banned from IRC would be the least of your issues.
-
Whatever it is, I just want myself un-banned quickly, because this just isn't right.
I don't want Battuta to abuse his mod capabilities AGAIN.
-

Here's the thread. (http://www.hard-light.net/forums/index.php?topic=58571.msg1182729#msg1182729) It was about relationships.
You're kinda skating on thin ice here Marcov. Just let it go.
-
IIRC every op in the channel (and a bunch of users) agreed to ban you, it wasn't my decision.
-
Well, you banned me again, remember? My name was GreatPirate.
This is actually amusing. I start asking some random question, declare it as plain crap, and then then next second, the crowd bashes me out of the channel.
I hope whoever banned me can read this thread now, because this is going the wrong way.

So let me get this straight: You got banned. You asked to be unbanned. The channel op's said, 'no.' You tried to bypass the ban by using a new username.
This is going the wrong way, entirely because you're driving it that way.
-
You weren't banned again - an error in the ban hostmask was corrected so it would be enforced. The only reason you were able to log on at all was because of that error. Please don't try to evade channel bans, it could lead to an Esper-wide ban according to Zacam.
And I'm the one who banned you at the request of the channel, you can read the banlog:
[23:50] #hard-light *!*@110.55.218.152 [email protected] 1302979420
This is a banlog entry. The first half is the IP that was banned, the second half the op who carried out the ban.

EDIT: My name is Nuclear and I repeat what's been said 100x before.

No, it was more like
1)FSOSara was curious why I was asking her HLP forum name
2)I said that I was curious because I heard somebody ask before if she was banned
3)FSOSara mentions iamzack, who was allegedly a "forum troll"
4)I got curious, so I research iamzack's posts
5)I got on one of her threads with Mars saying she was optimally lesbian
6)I screwed up thinking FSOSara was iamzack, so I accidentally asked if FSOSara was REALLY optimally lesbian
7)But I noticed my mistake, so I declared the question null
8)Everything went fine on IRC from that onwards
9)I wake up the next day and realize I am banned
10)I ask HLP was I was banned
11)Battuta says it was a unanimous decision of many members and OP's to get me banned
12)I reason out why banning me is a wrong decision
13)I think of somehow getting in IRC and ask the members there why I got banned
14)I got banned again
15)I tried to disconnect my Wireless network and re-connect it in the hope of being able to bypass the ban
16)I actually talked a while, planned to ask the same question, but Battuta suddenly bans me again
Oh, and not really, I wasn't driving it that way. It's just silly to ban me for that reason, so I want to be un-banned.
-
You only got banned once - the ban wasn't specific enough so it got fixed to work properly. It'll probably only last a few days, then you can come back and try again.
In the meantime you irritated someone badly enough to get reported and irritated the rest badly enough to make them ask for a ban. Don't be a repeat offender.
-

I'm sorry, but was FSOSara actually irritated by that question??
Well maybe I'll try your advice. I'll check IRC once in a while if the ban's gone. And I hope it will be gone soon. summer boredom is somehow rampant within myself.
-
A++, would read thread again.
-
6)I screwed up thinking FSOSara was iamzack,
This part takes skill, I'll give you that.
8)Everything went fine on IRC from that onwards
That's not what she said (as was already mentioned).
in the hope of being able to bypass the ban
It really doesn't work that way. If you're banned from a business establishment, you don't go trying to break in there through a back door or something. It'll just make things worse.
Granted, no one on IRC probably tells you when the ban is over and you'd need to check it yourself occasionally, but yeah.

Guys, this is what the PM system was invented for.
