If I may make a suggestion. If you are making more than 1 command, it would be better to use a select case. As such:

If Left(Message, Len(varBotTrigger)) then
   Dim CMD as string
   CMD = Split(Message & Space(1), Space(1))(0)
   CMD = Mid(CMD, Len(varBotTrigger) + 1)
   Select case LCase(CMD)
      'INSERT CASES HERE
   End Select
End If

This could be better, But Let me explain it to you. #1 the If statement, It checks to see if the bot's trigger is the 1st part of the message. Then The Split(), That Spits out the 1st word in the message, (determined by a space). Then the Mid() Cuts off the trigger from the CMD, then Select Case LCase(CMD) starts a select case of the LOWERCASE ver of the CMD, This makes it so that commands are case InSensitive.
Then you jsut add Cases between teh Select Case & End Select such as Case "greet"
   If username = varMaster Then
      Bot_Settings.txtGreet.Text = Mid(Message, 6)
      CleanSlateBot1.Send "Greet Message Changed"
      AddChat rtbChat, varUsername & ": Greet Changed" & vbNewLine, vbWhite
   End If

note: "greet" is lower case, it must be lower case to work becase of the LCase(CMD).
note2: i combined your 3 if statements into 1
note3: cases dont need end case, just end select.

also as FoFo stated "greet" = 5 not 3
