I use the maya template and a user of my bot who uses GAIM told me that when my bot signs on it sends the welocme message (which s in the room opened sub) without a room being opened. this only occurs with GAIM.

I think it could be something to do with GAIM sending client caps, when the bot signs in and opening a socket.

does anyone know a way around this problem?

In the newer MSN modules (past 2.0) we built in support for ClientCaps, and that makes it so your bot knows what a ClientCap is and doesn't see it as a message.

I don't think Mayabot has ever been updated to use MSN.pm 2.0. If you want to update it yourself, go ahead. But I don't think there's much you can do with an MSN module that doesn't know what ClientCaps are.

I think the reason why it does that because gAIM, and MSN start a new convo with everyone who comes online.

or gAIM may be requesting the dp.

Matt, you were right the second time, it does request the DP soo it opens a conversation, what you can do is when the bot opens a conversation in the IRO it doesn't puts some variable = to 1, and when the user starts typing a message the bot sends the welcoming message. (You'll have to edit MSN.pm for it to work)

MSN doesnt but wene ive used aMSN, gAIM etc ive found they create a convo...

-----

DP: I think MSN requests the DP on a convo open.

and other clients may invite to send the DP wene the person comes online.

Theres cache's on DPs, and MSN uses it thats why it doesn't always open a conversation with the bot (request).
- I'm not sure GAIM does the same thing. Razz
