For example, I am trying to have something like "!rejoice Josh" where the bot will output the message as "Rejoice Josh, welcome to the chat!". Currently my code is: on *:text:!rejoice:#: { msg #chan Rejoice $nick , welcome to the chat! } Thanks for the help

Code: on :TEXT:!rejoice :#: { var %nick = $$2 msg $chan Rejoice, %nick $+ ! is here! } Last edited by powerade661; 18/05/15 05:28 PM.

In this example, !rejoice *, if i do !rejoice <insert 255 characters here> the bot will put a wall of text in the channel. Any way to shorten the length to 16? twitter @keyeslol
