I have used mircstats, and as a suggestion it's easier for that stat system if the file just be continuous, no need to chop it day by day. I see now your reasoning (mostly) but to be honest you've actually INCREASED the work of the stats programs. As a suggestion, you should either let it have a con...

Well then, with that said...could you take the datestamp out of the irc channel logs and create backups of them in the backups folder? (if this isn't done already.) I am aware the backups folder would take yet another boulder but it would surely make that folder cleaner (in my opinion).

The method to my madness is a lot of the log files just get overwritten, if errors happen and you restart the bot the old error log goes kaput, you've got nothing to go by.

Or, the ABILITY of such, not really wanting it as default.

As the title implies I would like to see a date added to more log files than just the mIRC logs, this would increase the size of space necessary, but you could purge them like the backups. I.e. Have an ircbot.9.21.2011.log or something to that effect.

Aha, *smacks forehead* I forgot some variables, my mistake.

When I said RAW data I meant

Ack, I forgot to log in previously but also: I would still love to see each plugin log to their own files, so that it would be easier to track down issues and not have to go through 300 lines of text for 1 or 2 words. Would make it easier to track down if it was the bot itself having issues or a plu...

I second this request, awesome.

I know phpBB has a publically available API...what would it take to turn a section of the forums into a request system? I might be re-invinting the Request System slightly but it would also introduce my users to a whole section of my "experience" they may not be aware of.
