Are you sure your message is actually being sent and received by Nightbot? Twitch will sometimes drop messages completely without telling users they were dropped (antispam/abuse).
Yeah that is what I was experiencing, seems the messages were not being sent. Automod is disabled and there is no other messages, so I’m not really sure what was going on there.
Regardless, when the messages did go through they were caught by Nightbot, so I don’t think it’s a Nightbot issue. Feel free to close this thread.
