- Hello all,
-
- in the last couple of days some poeple have been trying to 'conquer' channel
- #pvb, the one that goes on television, just in order to annoy us.
-
- This time they succeeded, kicked everyone and made it +i.
-
- I am posting this cause I'm really angry right now, and I hope some irc-op
- is reading this and helps us prevent from happening it again.
-
- Here are parts of the logfile of the bot on #pvb:
-
- *** JOIN activated by "bander #pvb"
- *** bander has joined channel #pvb
- *** Mode change "+o bander " on channel #pvb by IRC.SantaFe.edu
- *** bander is bander@rever.NMSU.Edu (bander)
- *** on channels: @#pvb @#zz
- *** Mode change "+i " on channel #pvb by bander
- *** on irc via server IRC.SantaFe.edu (Santa Fe Institute)
- *** bander has been kicked off channel #pvb by wolfi
-
- first try - no luck this time (happened sunday)
-
-
- *** JOIN activated by "vintner #pvb"
- *** vintner has joined channel #pvb
- *** vintner is has0ate@cabell.vcu.edu (Todd Emerson )
- *** on channels: #pvb #hotsex #vintner
- *** on irc via server poe.acc.Virginia.EDU (University of Virginia 2.7.1f)
- *** Mode change "+o vintner " on channel #pvb by informatik.uni-oldenburg.de
- *** Signoff: vintner (informatik.uni-oldenburg.de)
-
- Just testing I guess.
-
-
- *** JOIN activated by "bander #pvb"
- *** bander has joined channel #pvb
- *** Mode change "+o bander " on channel #pvb by IRC.SantaFe.edu
- *** bander is bander@rever.NMSU.Edu (bander)
- *** on channels: @#pvb @#1
- *** on irc via server IRC.SantaFe.edu (Santa Fe Institute)
- *** Mode change "-o bander " on channel #pvb by wolfi
- *** Mode change "-oo wolfi pvbBot " on channel #pvb by bander
-
- Hmm, remis.
-
-
- *** JOIN activated by "ugaronin #pvb"
- *** ugaronin has joined channel #pvb
- *** Mode change "+o ugaronin " on channel #pvb by IRC.SantaFe.edu
- *** ugaronin is ugaronin@uxa.ecn.bgu.edu (!id Gene Aronin)
- *** on channels: @#pvb @#1
- *** on irc via server IRC.SantaFe.edu (Santa Fe Institute)
- *** Mode change "-o pvbBot " on channel #pvb by ugaronin
- *** You have been kicked off channel #pvb by ugaronin
-
- Then followed the kick of everyone else. Until we could find someone who
- would kill them. (Thanks)
-
- Banning those guys is useless, they have many different accounts.
- And opening another channel is not possible, cause the guest account of
- PVB uses the #pvb channel by default.
-
- Any other idea for help?
-
- Thank you,
-
- wolfi
