-3 ping in warez all the time?

You still don't understand. The server does NOT send a ping of -3. It doesn't send a ping AT ALL. The actual code in stealthbot (whatever the ping request function is) returns -3 if the user is NOT IN THE CHANNEL LIST.

I hope this isn't directed at me, but it makes sense now because it sounded crazy before.  Seems kind of stupid in my opinion.  How would StealthBot not know it's own ping?  Because there's no userlist?  Your ping is included in the channel event message--someone should fix StealthBot.  Why would it clear it's ping anyways when joining a new channel?

Stealthbot must suck then. At first, sixen had me under the impression that he was using his own battle.net bot. (which is why i told him he should review his code for determining ping)
Then, you talk about having the bot return -3 if it's not in the channel list, IIRC Stealthbot just errored with the message "That user is not in the channel" when it did that.

I think the point is it wasn't designed to realize that it might not be in the channel it's in. If you think about that concept, it doesn't seem likely. It's a singular case, and as such, wasn't taken into account.

The final verdict is that no, your ping is not -3 in Warez. It's a glitch in the bot you're using.

Sixen i checked channel warez with 2 of the bots i use and they come up regular ping.
