I cant figure it out,

I thought there was a issue with one of my structs, when looping it in a printout it was skipping 8..

5
6
7
9

after hours of meassing around I tried !say 8..

It just wont say 8 or any message that starts with 8 (in pub or privet chat..)

Any clues??

Subgame blocks messages starting with 8. Possibly to help break typos involving *passwords from getting out. Either way it's quite a nuisance since it also blocks 8th chat.

It blocks these messages from people with staff powers. Normal players aren't affected.

I believe that's only the case when a staff member is logged into BanG ?

I don't think you need to be logged into banG, but like Sama said, staff counts. Regardless, we're talking about a bot, so...

There's a patched version of subgame that fixes this if you're interested: http://www.extreme-games.net/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=44&t=20244
