Karma issue with --

[voidzero]

Something really weird and I can't find the cause: for some reason, words longer than 5 characters that get de-karma'd (e.g. foobar--) aren't caught. I put a putlog "I AM HERE!!" in the bMotion_plugin_complex_minmin_catcher proc, but it doesn't even get there. I tried everything - when I replace the -{2} with e.g. q{2} it does reach the proc. Mysterious! Care to take a glance at this? I'm out of clues.

<voidzero> fooba--
<@Doug> Karma for 'fooba': -3.
<voidzero> foobar--
*crickets*

[jamesoff]

Hmm I can't reproduce that

1806.16 [  JamesOff] fooba--
1806.19 [   NoTopic] karma for fooba is now -1
1806.27 [  JamesOff] foobar--
1806.32 [   NoTopic] karma for foobar is now -1

[jamesoff]

Out of interest what version of eggdrop/TCL is your bot?

[13:08:20] #JamesOff# status
I am NoTopic, running eggdrop v1.8.3: 307 users (mem: 740k).

works nice on my side too.

11 char is fine, 12 not. :)
i don't know where that 11 comes from.

ircd: (unreal)

egg.conf

[roughnecks]

for me it also stops working at 11 chars:

The length makes no sense: why does it only happen with --? ++ works fine. And if I replace the -- with other chars (for example qq) then it does enter the proc, revealed if I do .console +12 on the partyline..

[jamesoff]

Yeah it's all very weird, including the extra issues reported above. I was wondering if the -- is getting interpreted as an option or something but that doesn't really make sense given it's at the end of the word not the start (and would be odd anyway).

I guess there's no other useful clues on the partyline either? (+d1234 will get you everything bMotion will output to)

Cheers. Will continue poking at it. Seems everyone else is on TCL 8.6, will see about building a bot with that too.
