NickServ and ChanServ can't recognise any commands, including their help commands #114

Open Weyverling opened 1 year ago

Weyverling commented 1 year ago

Every time I try to type what either NickServ or ChanServ say is their help command it spits out this message: "[04:34] NS: Unknown command /msg NickServ HELP. "/msg NickServ HELP" for help." / "[04:41] CS: Unknown command /msg ChanServ HELP. "/msg ChanServ HELP" for help." I don't have any quirks made up on the account so I don't know where the  is coming from. It happens with just /help(/HELP) while I'm pestering them directly too. I'm not sure if it's a perms issue or something or what.

/msg nickserv help just means you have to message help to nickserv, /msg is a command to send a message that's present in a lot of IRC clients, but in Pesterchum you can just message them directly.

Like so: image

Think � is a replacement character for a character that failed to decode, maybe your client can't decode utf-8 characters? Are you running an old version? It's not relevant to being able to type help though.

Thank you for helping me with this. I tried it with /help I think instead of just "help" and since that gave the same message as the full /msg help (and the /msg help didn't do anything when I tried it in a memo w/o op priv) I thought the bot was broken instead. It shouldn't be an old version cos I installed it from the .xyz site (ver. 2.5.3) but I am running it from a zip file, that might have something to do with it?

You shouldn't run it from a zip file but that wouldn't effect encoding. Not rly important either way though.
