[09:46:42] <Kithairon> Hello I would like to report someone evading bans
[09:46:54] <~Alucard> yeah, who's Nagato andwhich ban
[09:47:06] <Kithairon> Blaise, it was a channel ban
[09:47:21] <~Alucard> oh, I was looking for glines
[09:47:25] <Kithairon> Oh, no.
[09:48:12] <~Alucard> sorry, I'm doing 17 things at once
[09:48:21] <Kithairon> It's fine.
[09:48:28] <~Alucard> reban him/her if you want
[09:48:38] <~Alucard> ban *!47f25729@* to ban her from using irc@work to evade
[09:48:51] <~Alucard> someone unbanned the original
[09:49:05] <Kithairon> No point, higher in access than me.  I figured I'd bring it here since it dealt with evasion.
[09:49:46] <~Alucard> I dunno, he has the right to unban himself with CS UNBAN and 'evade' with CS INVITE anyway
[09:50:22] <Kithairon> But use IRC@Work to get around an existing ban?
[09:51:40] <~Alucard> yeah, I dunno
[09:51:55] <~Alucard> I think the bigger issue is too many people have too much power in that channel
[09:52:11] <~Alucard> most of this would not become an issue if Kat gave out less power
[09:52:37] <Kithairon> This report doesn't concern #Idk, really.
[09:53:08] <Kithairon> This kind of confuses me now.  I was banned for using a nick that was given to me, for nick theft, yet connecting through a proxy to get around a channel ban isn't considered evading?
[09:53:15] <Kithairon> And I don't say this to be a smart-ass.
[09:55:16] <~Alucard> the case of using nicks you don't own is cut and dry. Getting around bans where you have the right to isn't so much. you're probably right technically
[09:55:20] <~Alucard> brb, moving a couch
[10:00:48] <~Alucard> oooooook
[10:02:14] <Kithairon> I just feel some people get extra special treatment compared to others.
[10:02:30] <Kithairon> First rule stated on hanashi.*'s MOTD
[10:02:39] <Kithairon> No proxies
[10:02:53] <~Alucard> ..you know what would be a good idea
[10:03:06] <~Alucard> that thingy I've seen elsewhere that integrates cgi irc and Unreal better
[10:03:13] <~Alucard> so they get their real host
[10:03:20] <~Alucard> I will have to ask the guy
[10:04:33] * tab|going-home is now known as tab|away
[10:04:40] <~Alucard> CGIIRC/IRC@Work isn't an insecure proxy as normally defined, tho it can help evade bans
[10:05:54] <~Alucard> I'm not intentionally treating anyone differently
[10:06:04] <~Alucard> I just don't think the cases are as clear
[10:06:41] <~Alucard> it's moot at this point
[10:07:40] <Kithairon> Alright.
