My IRC nick is: soreau
Please briefly describe the interaction that caused you to file this
ticket:
I am frustrated by the response I got from a known problem user on irc and
the fact that an op labeled me as a troll for getting upset at him.
Please note other IRC nicks that are involved in this interaction:
[R], DiscordianUK
Please describe what action or positive change could be adopted based on
this feedback:
This op in particular should not make these comments to a new fedora user:
<DiscordianUK> troll
<DiscordianUK> ahh you're on #ubuntu
<DiscordianUK> I thought I smelled a troll
<DiscordianUK> You are trolling here sir
Any additional notes or logs:
<rushfan> soreau: just calm down
<soreau> alacarte should already be installed by default
<soreau> rushfan: Ok
<DiscordianUK> I also have no time for fools like you
<[R]> you shoud'nt be swithcing to an new dist if you have no time to read
its docs
<soreau> ok 'sudo yum install alacarte' seems to be working
<soreau> [R]: STFU
<soreau> I don't have time for your comments
<[R]> lol
<soreau> Also, I was not pleased to find my user was not part of sudoers
file by default
<DiscordianUK> troll
<soreau> Since it's the only user on the machine
<[R]> soreau: fedora doesnt configure sudo by deafult
<soreau> /ignore [R]
<soreau> oops
<[R]> DiscordianUK: good, now i can call him the idiot taht he is
<soreau> [R]: You can't even spell
<soreau> Who;'s the idiot now
<[R]> i thought you put me on ignore
* fedbot gives channel operator status to DiscordianUK
<DiscordianUK> are you gonna behave soreau ?
<soreau> DiscordianUK: Yes as long as [R] does too
<DiscordianUK> Play nice then please
<soreau> Ok
* fedbot removes channel operator status from DiscordianUK
<soreau> Man, it takes an act of congress to get a package installed :P
<soreau> Have to confirm twice already
<DiscordianUK> ahh you're on #ubuntu
<DiscordianUK> I thought I smelled a troll
<fedbot> Please visit our trac instance at
https://fedorahosted.org/irc-
support-sig/ and file a feedback ticket telling us about your experience
in #fedora. Thanks in advance for your feedback.
<[R]> troll-o-vision
<soreau> DiscordianUK: So according to you, everyone in #ubuntu is a troll
<soreau> ...
<soreau> ?
<DiscordianUK> You are trolling here sir
<soreau> No I am not, I'm trying to get help with F14 as a new user
<DiscordianUK> Then I suggest you don't fight off people like [R] who
might help you
<soreau> Now when I start vncviewer, it starts on the right output, not
the main one as expected
<soreau> Is there a way to fix this or is it a wm issue?
<dvanstone> soreau: change the display numbers ?
<soreau> dvanstone: How do you mean?
<soreau> dvanstone: Other apps start on the primary output
<soreau> all other apps I've started so far, at least
<DiscordianUK> Right I must sleep
* DiscordianUK has quit (Remote host closed the connection)
The op is DiscordianUK and [R] is an irc user I've known for years from
several different channels. He is very abrasive and always says 'read
docs' or 'man this' and never offers any real help. The op called me a
troll several times and acted like I was the bad guy. In any event, I did
not appreciate this at all in the slightest and I believe this op should
have handled things in a much more professional manner instead of
'flashing his headlights' as an op and calling me a troll several times
when I am trying to get noob help.
