Bot not sending data properly after a set time

API
6

I meant spam, like add’s, but not exactly that, sorry for the confusion. Thanks in advance!

I think so…ill paste the code (ill try to comment the code so it is a little less messy)

import socket 
import time
import threading
import logging

CLIENT_ID="xxx"
BOT_NICK="xxx"
BOT_PREFIX="!"
CHANNEL="xxx"
continue=True

#this function was supposed to read the chat and, in some time, make it so it could read commands and act acordingly
    
    readbuffer = ""
    logging.info("Thread %s: starting", name)
    print(server.recv(1024))

    while continue:
     
        readbuffer=str(server.recv(1024))
        
        if ("PING" in readbuffer):   # the answer to the ping if recieved
            server.send(bytes("PONG :tmi.twitch.tv",'utf-8'))

        else:
            pass  # this used to write comments the chat sent into the pythons command line, but 
                     # was buggy and i just commented it
            """readbuffer=readbuffer.split("PRIVMSG")
            if readbuffer[0].find("!")!=-1:
                name=readbuffer[0].split("!")[1]

                print(name+" dijo '"+msg[:-5]+"'") """
