Miscellaneous
When you enter chat you will see the number of players in the chat channel; if you are the only player in that chat channel the message "There is currently one player in this channel, and that one player is you!" will replace it.

Interactive Bots
- chatbot (#142302) is a multipurpose bot who responds to chat, rolls dice in /games, announces the current song playing on Radio KoL in /radio, provides useful game information and plays games. For more information, private message chatbot with the message, "help".
- Haiku Oracle (#464776) is a multipurpose bot used for strawberrying a player, telling a joke, flipping a coin, and answering yes or no questions Magic 8-Ball style. All of this is done both in haiku and in /haiku, coincidentally.
Special Key Bindings
- [Modifier]+UpArrow and [Modifier]+DownArrow will cycle through your recently typed chat window entries. [Modifier]+LeftArrow and [Modifier]+RightArrow will cycle through your chat tabs, if tabbed chat is enabled. In your chat options, you can set the required modifier key to Shift, Control, or Alt, or disable these bindings entirely.
Shout Filter
Disabled March 8, 2011:
The shout filter was a filter that prevented people posting in more than 40% capital letters and exclamation marks (!). Any message that contained more than 40% capital letters and exclamation marks was re-posted as "[shouting]". Posting a "[shouting]" post following another "[shouting]" post acted as a repetition, even if the messages' contents were different. There was no way to turn the shout filter off, but it was disabled in clan chat.
Repetition Filter
Disabled March 8, 2011:
The repetition filter was a filter that prevented people posting the exact same text, or repetitive characters into open chat more than once. It resulted in a message coming back to you saying Repetition. You were still able to /msg a person the same text more than once.
