What version of Eggdrop are you using?

The easy way to stop that from happening, is to NOT try to add channels in eggdrop.conf at all.

# To add a channel to eggdrop, please enter the bot's partyline and type
# .+chan #channel. Check also .help chanset and .help chaninfo.
# You can still add a channel here and it will be saved if you have a
# chanfile. We recommend you to use the partyline though.
#
#channel add #lamest

Adding channels via the config file is deprecated and discouraged. It is suggested that channels are added with the partyline .+chan command instead. Note that if channels are added this way, channel settings still has to be changed using .chanset The only difference between adding channels directly in the config file and using .+chan is that channels added via the config file will become static and can not be removed without removing them from the config file and then doing a .restart.

Reference:
http://eggwiki.org/Eggdrop.conf

If it was me, I'd comment out the things you mentioned.
Just put a
#
as the first character of every one of those lines.

Each line that begins with a
#
is ignored by the bot.

You must remove competely these lines

Code:

# # You MUST remove this line for your bot to start. This has been added to# prevent you from starting up a bot that is not fully configured. Bots# that have not been fully configured may join the wrong IRC network, the# wrong channels, or generally do things that you do not want. Please make# sure that you have double-checked every setting. There's also a similar line# lower down, just to make sure you're reading :)#die "Please make sure you edit your config file completely."
