When i just install the eggdrop and i run it , on my bot's ident there are other 3 characters after it.
How do I remove those?

What are these characters?

It could be many things.

The IRC server could be placing it on it.
The identd software may be doing it.

May be you could just past it.

This is how my config file looks like :

Code: Select all

set username "PACURAS"

And this is what my bot looks like :

Code: Select all

--------------------  Whois  ----------------------
PACURAS is PACURASAer@PACURAS.users.undernet.org * Iliada si Odisea
PACURAS in channels: #lic-pedagogic @#galaciuc
PACURAS using *.undernet.org
PACURAS PACURAS is logged in as
---------------------------------------------------

it has an 'Aer' at the end of it's ident.
This changes every time it connects to IRC.

Sounds like you are using eggdrop on windows, with the winident script.

This script tends to use extra characters.

check your winident script for these lines:

### Options:
## Set this to the ident you want to have:
# Leave as $username*** for it use the $username setting you defined in your
# Eggdrop config, along with up to 3 random alphanumeric characters at the end.
# (You can use *'s (for alphanumeric) or ?'s (for digit) as wildcards here to
# have random characters put in place of them whenever an ident is requested.)
set ident(username) "$username"
