As the message states, you have not read over your config file correctly.

There are lines within this file, that make the bot exit.

These are designed to encorrage people to review the config file line for line, with the intent of making them understand each setting.

If you review your config file, you will see this mistake. There is a second simalar line further down the file too, just to make sure you are reviewing everything.
