Funny Things Freshers Say!

[astropoint]

I really feel sometimes that they don't listen to a damned word I say

[21:24:42] <roy> -commands
[21:25:12] <roy> -[get]ip
[21:25:33] <roy> -[get]ip
[21:25:47] <astropoint> you;re on campus
[21:25:52] <astropoint> so it won;t give the right ip anyway
[21:26:04] <astropoint> and it's -ip or -getip for future reference
[21:26:25] <roy> how do i register because it says i am unregistered?
[21:26:36] <astropoint> www.twofoco.uk/register.php
[21:29:10] <roy> -getip

Decide for yourselves

[17:13:17] <vedant> Im not able to recieve file lists for some reason....
[17:13:31] <astropoint> vedant, try putting your IP from http://checkip.dyndns.org/ into the IP (or External/WAN IP) box in File -> Settings -> Connection Settings. Make sure it is the CORRECT IP before asking further questions (Just because it was one thing yesterday doesn't mean to say it is the same today as it does change from time to time). Many searching/downloading problems are caused by an incorrect IP or lack of the IP.
If this doesn't work, then you may want to consult the connection guide at http://www.twofo.co.uk/wiki/index.php/Help:Contents
[17:14:00] <astropoint> and you can only download from these people at the moment: Rupert / xyzzy / Davide / Kres / Komis / aj / mikec / fallingmagpie / vedant / shashank / herd / znomel
[17:15:57] <vedant> is the DC++ program files folder shared by default upon installation?
[17:16:03] <astropoint> no
[17:16:18] <astropoint> by default nothing is shared
[17:16:20] <vedant> sum1 just uploaded a file from there
[17:16:27] <vedant> even though i havnt shared it
[17:16:33] <astropoint> might have changed then
[17:16:40] <vedant> a file named files.xml.bz2
[17:16:51] <astropoint> ...
[17:16:52] <vedant> i dont remember it being shared either
[17:16:58] <astropoint> that's your filelist
[17:17:15] <vedant> rupert downloaded it....any chance of this being a security issue?
[17:17:25] <astropoint> [17:16:58] <astropoint> that's your filelist
[17:18:05] <vedant> well, i definitely didnt share it, but sum1 uploaded it from me - dude, is my comp not safe enough?
[17:18:15] <astropoint> oh ffs
[17:18:30] <vedant> whats a file list man
[17:18:37] <astropoint> a list of files
[17:18:44] <astropoint> a list of files you are sharing
[17:18:54] <astropoint> like when you look at the list of files anybody else is sharing
[17:19:03] <vedant> k - so its not there on it
[17:19:08] <vedant> how did he get it then
[17:19:20] <astropoint> right click on Rupert's name in the user list
[17:19:27] <astropoint> and choose "Get filelist"

[astropoint]

Damn that OpenDC Hub. Stops so many people connecting

[17:14:40] <raghav> hey man my frend cant connect
[17:14:57] <raghav> cos it gives an error saying that hez running some version of Open DC Hub

[echelon]

damn those are funny.. the filelist is the best one.. I had a few good ones.. one guy didn't know how to share I kept tellling him in the end yoinkster kicked him for having a 0B share.. I thought it was fair enough since he if he hadn't figured it out after an or so with the directions I gave him.. well he likely never would.. unfortunately I didn't save it

[ZeeC]

Was it in PM or public?

[astropoint]

The filelist one was public

[ZeeC]

I meant the one echelon was talking about that he didn't say about

[astropoint]

Has to be private - otehrwise I would have posted it

[echelon]

yes it was private.. I was pestering him with my script that demands to know why he wasn't sharing anything... and his response was he didn't know how.. so I helped him out.. then he asked if everything he downloaded wouldn't automatically be shared.. and I promptly responded "only if you're sharing your downoad folder". And we went full circle to return to the "I still don't know how to share folders"... I'm glad yoinkster kicked him as I was starting to get a bit tired of him being so thick

[echelon]

well here is one:

[23:10] <Echelon> You are sharing only 10.71 GiB! Care to explain why?
[23:11] <Hestar> people can share?
[23:11] <Hestar> hold on
[23:11] <Hestar> one sec
[23:11] <Hestar> how can i select a folder of which people can upload from?
[23:12] <Hestar> ive got 60Gb of music i want to share

decide for yourselves...

[astropoint]

The really scary thing is that they'll still be doing it in term 3
