ok here is what the prebot announces for new releases

e.g. bot announcing new stuff
Quote:

<pre> [-PRE-] [DVD-R] Date:(2006-05-10) Release:(BlahBlah.NTSC.DVDR-RELEASE)
<pre> [-PRE-] [XviD] Date:(2006-05-10) Release:(BlahBlah.NTSC.XviD-RELEASE)
<pre> [-PRE-] [XBoX] Date:(2006-05-10) Release:(BlahBlah.NTSC.XBoX-RELEASE)
<pre> [-PRE-] [SVCD] Date:(2006-05-10) Release:(BlahBlah.NTSC.SVCD-RELEASE)


e.g user looking up pretime
Quote:

<some_user> -pre BlahBlah.XviD-Relese
<pre> [-PRETIME-] [XviD] Date:(2006-04-27) Release:(BlahBlah.XviD-Relese) Age:(1 week 6 days 3 hours 31 minutes 37 seconds ago)
some_user> -pre BlahBlah.DVD-R-Relese
<pre> [-PRETIME-] [DVD-R] Date:(2006-04-27) Release:(BlahBlah.DVDR-Relese) Age:(1 week 6 days 3 hours 31 minutes 37 seconds ago)
some_user> -pre BlahBlah.SVCD-Relese
<pre> [-PRETIME-] [SVCD] Date:(2006-04-27) Release:(BlahBlah.SVCD-Relese) Age:(1 week 6 days 3 hours 31 minutes 37 seconds ago)
some_user> -pre BlahBlah.VCD-Relese
<pre> [-PRETIME-] [VCD] Date:(2006-04-27) Release:(BlahBlah.VCD-Relese) Age:(1 week 6 days 3 hours 31 minutes 37 seconds ago)

as you can see from the script:
[quote]
ON 1:TEXT:*:#CHAN_ECHO'S_FROM:{

if (PRETIME isin $1-) || (French isin $1-) || (SWEDiSH isin $1-) || (DANiSH isin $1-) || (German isin $1-) || (DUTCH isin $1-) || (.KOR. isin $1-) || (.iTALiAN. isin $1-) || (.SATRip. isin $1-) || (.PL. isin $1-) || (.*-pre*. isin $1-) {

set %echo.say OFF

}

if (DVD-R isin $1-) && (%echo.say == ON) { /msg #CHAN_ECHO'S_TO $1- }

if (SVCD isin $1-) && (%echo.say == ON) { /msg #CHAN_ECHO'S_TO $1- }

if (VCD isin $1-) && (%echo.say == ON) { /msg #CHAN_ECHO'S_TO $1- }

if (XviD isin $1-) && (%echo.say == ON) { /msg #CHAN_ECHO'S_TO $1- }

if (XBoX isin $1-) && (%echo.say == ON) { /msg #CHAN_ECHO'S_TO $1- }

if (Games isin $1-) && (%echo.say == ON) { /msg #CHAN_ECHO'S_TO $1- }


set %echo.say ON

}


it blocks/filters PRETIME so i dont see the bots responce to the users quiry,thats good (what i want) and working fine.
The prob is where i have further down the script,i have it set to echo on for when the bots announces new
DVD-R , VCD , SVCD , XBoX and XviD so i think there lies the prob, if anyone in the chan types in DVD-R etc.. it echo's the users txt/quiry to my filtered chan.
I'm not very good with scripts etc.. maybe there is a better way to write it i dont know,i had help with this as it was to get it to do what its doing so far but just seem to be stumbling on this last part.
