man_in_shack banned me during a casual conversation where i was explaining my dual x server wine setup, saying I was contradicting myself. I obviously wasn't trying to contradict myself, if I did, and I don't see how this is ban-worthy under any circumstance.
It was experienced vs noob. Pardon me for calling you noob tsukasa1105. What you said was contradicting self making it very hard on the experienced person mind. Twinview only operates if two screens are being used as one. When running 2 x11 servers on two different screens. Even if Twinview is enabled in X configuration it will not be used if the X11 server has 1 screen. Its not like man_in_shack to ban people.

You were *quietted* (a +q or % ban) because you appeared to be contradicting yourself. While I was going over what you said and trying to work out the best way to respond, you parted and rejoined with a nick that was not covered by the % ban. This is ban evasion, and this is the reason why you were banned. I have a zero-tolerance policy for any ban evader. Also note, there is no such thing as a "casual conversation" in #winehq (or if there is, it should be moved to #winehq-social). #winehq is a support channel. The ban is lifted, and I apologise for the length of time it took. I had an event to attend and removed the ban as soon as I got back home.

It has nothing to do with getting software working under Wine, and really - nobody here to find out about that cares. Could "I've been banned from IRC" threads be killed? - d.
