Description
It think its due to the bot's nickname having | in it, or maybe not. I should mention that it dose sometimes respond if its nickname is used with a '?'
or very once or twice its responded to
'Ch33ky^|mp: <question>'
It should respond to everything.
<@Me> !bmotion cheeky status <@Ch33ky^|mp> I AM Ch33ky^|mp! I'm powered by bMotion 0.1.0. I'm female and this week I have mostly been straight. <@Ch33ky^|mp> My botnicks are currently /(Ch33ky^|mp|cheeky|, cheeky|,cheeky|bot|bots|the bot) ?/. I'm active on: (channels removed) <@Ch33ky^|mp> I am impervious to tiredness and never need to sleep. <@Ch33ky^|mp> Random stuff happens at least every 20, at most every 240, and not if channel quiet for more than 120 (mins)
any other information needed please just ask :)

This breakage is because the bot's nick has the "|" character in it.
The quick fix is (for you) to take the "|" out :) The correct fix is for me to automatically escape the | and any other special symbols. I'll look into it!
