maybe just re-reading the Commands Reference would be wise by now Coolio?

Because you haven't read a thing and killed the bot and deleted both the .chan and .chan~bak files after making your configuration changes.

Kill your bot. Then delete your .chan and .chan.bak file or delete your channels entry for all settings in both the files. Then open your .conf file and in "GLOBAL" CHANNEL SETTINGS remove all the need-* functions and make them empty, i.e. leave the braces empty as "{ }" and do the same for your DYNAMIC CHANNEL SETTINGS. Then reload your bot, it should be fine.

kill your bot first remove the #testing entry and also remove it from the botname.chan.bak file also then restart it

Are the globals still setup to display op me cuz i'm lame?

Also if your bot was already in testing before you removed the need op etc config settings they will still be in the bots channel file. The best way i can help you here is to not set any channels in the config and just add them with .+chan from the party line.

Kill your bot. delete the botname.chan file and the .bak file restart your bot. login and then .+chan #testing making sure that the globals are not set in the config..

need-op { }
need-invite { }
need-key { }
need-unban { }
need-limit { }

i did exactly that but the bot is still sending those "op me coz im lame" crap??
whats even weird is that i got
need-op { putserv "PRIVMSG #testing :op me cos i'm lame!" }
(and so on) on another server but the bot is not typing that crap out if it doesnt have ops??

The following settings will keep a bot log and a channel log (logging public chat):

##### LOG FILES #####

set max-logs 365
set max-logsize 0
set quick-logs 0

logfile mbco * "logs/botnick.log"
logfile jpk #channel "stats/channel.log"

set log-time 1
set keep-all-logs 1
set logfile-suffix ".%d%b%Y"
set switch-logfiles-at 300
set quiet-save 1

I use pisg and have unlimited space so I have max-logs set to keep logging for 1 year.

The result of this is a number of files averaging 44Kb with filenames similar to this: channel.log.01Jan2005

# If keep-all-logs is 1, this setting will define the suffix of the logfiles.
# The default will result in a suffix like "04May2000". "%Y%m%d" will produce
# the often used yyyymmdd format. Read the strftime manpages for more options.
# NOTE: On systems which don't support strftime, the default format will
# be used _always_.
set logfile-suffix ".%d%b%Y"

Well as far as I know logs for channels are seperate and those logs are seperated daily. Each channel logged, is stored in a file with its name along with its date.

Meaning after every 24hrs the file name is changed, supposed you want to log the channel #awyeah. You are logging it since 3-4 days now. The names would be something like this along with the dates:

#awyeah1922005.log
#awyeah2022005.log
#awyeah2122005.log
#awyeah2222005.log
#awyeah2322005.log

I beleive that the partyline can yes also be logged. Generally I don't make my bot log and never will, since there are tonnes of people interacting with it and frankly I don't have the time to go over them.

However if I want to log something very important and serious I would just trigger a bind in tcl and make a txt file and send all my important loggings into my file and read it in the end of the day and etc.

Oh ok. Sweet thanks. Just one last question, with the logging feature in the bot, does it just log stuff like in partyline etc?.......is it possible to log all the chat that happens in a channel and have like a seperate file for each channel???
