Please briefly describe the interaction that caused you to file this
ticket:
I started to use a new irc client which posted my 'away' status to the
channel by mistake. I then accidentally upset an op in the channel when
they pinged me about it, which i tried to apologize for. I fixed the away
settings immediately. A few days later I was banned from #fedora, which i
suspect was related to a nick change made by my client when i disconnected
from my irc proxy server. I understand that excessively changing nicks is
against the rules, but I do not do it often, and I believe the ban was
related to the original problem of upsetting the op in the channel.
Please note other IRC nicks that are involved in this interaction:
I do not recall the name of the op.
Please describe what action or positive change could be adopted based on
this feedback:
I would like to be unbanned from the channel. I spend a lot of time in
there trying to assist other users with their issues.
Any additional notes or logs:
unfortunately I dont seem to have the logs, but I do have the ban, which
appears to have happened while I was disconnected from the proxy.
