Similar Issues:
The current IRC bot sends all its messages to channels using NOTIFY, which on many clients shows up as a global message (or worse, as a pop-up messsage). If this is desirable, it should at least be possible to configure the bot to use normal IRC messages to the channels, so that people won't see the messages across all terminals/windows or worse.
Yes, sorry, I meant NOTICE.
I understand the reason you explain for using NOTICE, but whenever we have our bot display help or results or anything, we get complaints from people in lots of different channels, since NOTICE often shows up very loudly and across windows or channels. At any rate, I don't think make it configurable would harm anyone, and the default could still be NOTICE if you like.
FWIW, no other IRC bots I've ever used use NOTICE for interaction. They all message the channel or user directly.

Do you mean NOTICE? I don't see any place where the bot uses notify.
AFAI understand IRC /notice should be used to prevent automatic replies from other bots - which is exactly what we want - and otherwise shouldn't be any different from /msg. So I don't see why /msg should be better.
