Vitamin banned me today - you can see the full log here. Also I was about to say at the end there, if redhat automounts usb sticks. http://pastebin.com/mb489dc
I think what really pissed him off was that I asked for help identifying a bug in Loki in #winehackers originally. I asked in the user channel after i was informed it was the wrong channel.
Anyways, can I get unbanned from #winehq? You can do a whois on tsukasa to find my info.

No, what prompted me to keep you away from #winehq is a suggestions like:
<dipdude> find the file of my flash drive and take out the file for wine <tsukasa> dipdude, just do a sudo find / -name *wine*
How does that related to the question asked? And this is not the first time you recommended something like that to people which is completely unacceptable!
And I would ask all other ops in the channel think twice before allowing people like that on the channel...
Also, please consider reading the FreeNode rules. I do not beleave you have requested permission from each person before publishing this log. Please make sure that you do that now, or I will have to request FreeNode stuff to k-line you.
And to add to that, yes you are present in the #winehackers channel and you constantly interrupting other developers with your user questions. Yet I have not seen yet a desire from your side to either help development or because a developer yourself. Instead all your requests are real user related requests.
Vitaliy.

I do not think there is a network-wide policy regarding publishing logs. Many channels have weird rules about that, but not freenode.
PS: I too have been the victim of heavy handed channel administration in #winehq.

If anyone is interested in making #winehq a place that is more pleasant, I would urge them to try to accomplish what I suggest in the last paragraph (read the rest for more explanation).
I'll copy&paste from a previous discussion about #winehq problems:
Though formulating proper communication guidelines is some work (one can borrow text and wisdom from projects that may have something like this; freenode, fedora, ubuntu, gentoo, debian come to mind), the real work is discussing it, asking everyone whose comments matter and getting everyone to agree.

but then what? How would they be enforced?
Obviously then the people with the authority will support the needed enforcement. But IMHO the best atmosphere is when nobody needs to wield their powers.
We have #winehq-social where anything can be discussed and nobody gets banned (unless they do advertisement or/and malware).
Another problem is that we don't have a rule for when/how to unban.
So if we could agree on rules for when and how to ban and unban, it would be a good start and our community should become a bit more pleasant.

I'm sorry but I agree with Vitaliy decision. I don't know you so I'm judging just by log you have posted and few sentences on the list. I will not repeat what Vitaliy already have said on the list but just want to add that such phrases like:
... * tsukasa thinks dipdude shouldve gone ubuntu ... <dipdude> i dont get it tsukasa * vitamin warns tsukasa to NOT do such remarks ... <tsukasa> im just saying redhat is more advanced of a distribution then ubuntu is <dipdude> find the file of my flash drive and take out the file for wine <vitamin> dipdude, You have to: <tsukasa> dipdude, just do a sudo find / -name *wine* ...
...very unhelpful for everyone who are using Ubuntu. You may say that you recommend or suggest other distribution because you like it but you never can tell that it is better than others because it isn't by definition: *each* distribution in the world have something in it why someone uses it and not others. Besides, to me it seems like you "inserting" in the dialog between vitamin and dipdude unhelpful comments (at the end of the log I have posted above) instead of helpful advises or recommendations. Please note also that you has been warned in the log before you has been banned. If you get the warning you should think why before blindly ignoring it as you did (if you unsure why you get it you may ask privately the admin or moderator). In case if you will be unbanned you should try to be more helpful when you are trying to help someone otherwise don't even try - this is good rule of thumb for everyone. Of course everything above is just my opinion.
