its a bit much, i think remove youtube, and tourny advertisement (it shud be on banner as advertisement is enuff) make the tips n hints spam bit less often. change the auto message of bot hoster to a shorter one line txt "Gamebot has hosted a game GOW"

Maybe it should be changed to a 30 min idle wait.

It's only going off every 4 minutes, has to be a pretty dead channel to look like that.

Ill change it to 6 minutes.

Not all people can see the banner advertisements + the banners are not always up and ready yet when the tournament is announced.

I'm not on very often, but hardly ever conversation in channel when I do get on.  current interval times work for me.

youtube bot was at 20 minutes, i put it to 30. tips are at 15 and i left them there. I could remove tips entirely, a few people have said they learned something new from them but in general I doubt there's enough newbs around for it to make much of a difference. idle messages are pretty harmless, greet messages are muuuuch more annoying, they probably shouldn't be used at all ever in the main channel. (though there is a nice script that lets you send 1 greet per user per period of time, which is acceptable.)
