The user was answered by many people. 18:07:22 no one really seemed to be attacked to me. 18:07:49 I guess one thing is the comment about engrish. 18:08:01 we should avoid that kind of thing. 18:08:04 ssdd? 18:08:05 ;p 18:08:06 I don't think the OP was attacked 18:08:31 The user did not get the answer they wanted so the system is broken. 18:08:37 He is very young and seeking attention in my opinion 18:09:19 sure, so, lets close this with a thanks for the feedback and all try and avoid engrish like comments... 18:09:27 * DiscordianUK nods about the engrish thing 18:10:04 shall we move on? 18:10:12 Yes 18:10:18 the next ticket was filed earlier this week, shall we look at it now, or wait for next meeting? 18:10:32 Lets just deal with it now... 18:10:44 let's do that 18:11:02 Technically it should wait a week but I don't see a practical reason to do so. 18:11:28 yeah. 18:11:34 #topic #141 Ops too quick to "quiet" a user, Fedora Project should be ashamed of IRC 18:11:43 https://fedorahosted.org/irc-support-sig/ticket/141 18:11:51 I added my thoughts to the ticket earlier. 18:11:56 AS did I 18:12:21 anyhow, I think this is an unfortunate case of a user who gets very mad very quickly... 18:12:28 over not much 18:12:51 The user has a history going back several years with preconceived opinions of Fedora™ and the Fedora™ Community 18:12:54 I agree with you on this nirik 18:13:21 I suggested they try other support channels as well... but they say that they hate all fedora support, so not sure if they will do so. 18:13:52 There is little we can do about other channels 18:14:00 so, I would say close with thanks for the feedback, try other support channels, do try and relax some. 18:14:09 +! 18:14:11 ! 18:14:11 +1 18:14:13 !1 18:14:14 right, my point is that they are tarring everything with the same brush 18:14:45 there's not much overlap between irc and mailing list support, but yet they find them both horrible? perhaps it's something other than the support means. 18:14:47 Yup... thanks for shopping... 18:14:48 ke4qqq: ? 18:15:34 nirik: I think kk4ewt was trying to say "+1" to close it and move on 18:15:42 yep 18:15:45 ah, ok. ;) 18:15:50 #topic Open Floor 18:15:59 any items for open floor ? suggestions? 18:16:12 The Fedora™ Board meeting is in #fedora-meeting-1 18:16:19 I have nothing 18:17:07 ok, will close out in about a minute if nothing else. 18:17:56 oh, would someone like to close tickets? if not, I can do it later. 18:18:07 Sure, I can do it... 18:18:18 cool. thank you. 18:18:24 * StillBob will try to be as polite and nice as possible... 18:18:30 ;) 18:18:31 :) 18:18:36 StillBob: good luck. ;) 18:18:41 thanks for coming everyone! 18:18:46 #endmeeting
