    Can you elaborate more on this?
    I noticed that the bot can stop responding when it's getting flood by private messages.

    In that case, I wonder if having a process manager would help.

    My issue was that testing things with the same commands over and over trips up the "ignore repeated input" filter. This was on a private IRC server I use for testing, so there was no flood of any one else using the bot privately.

    In your case, I think that's coz the bot is single threaded. Any time it takes to respond to a given message, is time it can't spend replying to the next. So a flood will keep it busy.
