We have 40 bots on our botnet, for some reason, the bots are setting limits way too high.
example: 30 people in a channel, bot sets limit to 130.
this is not a split-related issue.
any ideas?

Check you script settings.
There is usualy a setting, that allows you to adjust, how many above the current usercount, is set as the limit.
In your case, you have set it to 100

thx ppslim
found the problem, some of the bots had their netbots folders on different paths than the hubbot.
i corrected the situation by mirroring the files in three different places. so when the bots got the update command they would aquire the files from the same path they had locally.
example: \hubbot\scripts\netbots
\hubbot\netbots
\hubbot\scripts
making sure the files were in these 3 places fixed the problem, because other owners hadnt followed the same netbots setup as 80% of the botnet did.
Lesson learned.
