Domina\_bot has been working flawlessly for a while now… not sure whats up.

I’ve logged into the account (via web), regenerated oath (old one was 3 yrs) and even with new oath, same behaviour.

Just curious if something is out, or changed? Halp?

EDIT: successfull connection but getting back from the server:

> :tmi.twitch.tv NOTICE \* :Error logging in
