to a certain level...

It would be impossible to take in account all addons, scripts, etc which do something alternativly. So far I'v seen commands starting with "!", "^", "$" and even commands which end in "!", and who knows what else... All this because people either simply don't know that you can make "/" commands, or think it will always render the message "command is not reconized", or because they want to be different...

The reason why Windows is so full of wierd and inlogic stuff or things which are/should have been long obsolete, but is still used (eg: Special Folders reg key) is because of this "take in account idiocy". And because it is still there, people (mis)use it and learn the wrong thing (eg: again Special Folders reg key). The same is just happening with those "!" commands...

Orgrim, what you also can do instead of fixing every script you have which might alter messages, is making a small script with "/" aliases for the StuffPlug "!" commands (though I hope TB makes the commands starting with "/" instead, if possible).
