Thanks!

whatever - dont bother replying to a help forum if you have to be rude about it.

Hi - is there a way to set a variable just once when the bot starts up, but then does not get set again when there's a rehash?

Hi there

Is there a shorter way to make this timer run at 00, 15, 30 & 45 past the hour than this:

bind time - "00 * * * *"
bind time - "15 * * * *"
bind time - "30 * * * *"
bind time - "45 * * * *"

Thanks in advance...
