WowAce

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. install addon
2. login to character
3.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
supposed to supress gmotd and wow system messages on login, however, only the gmotd is being supressed

What version of the product are you using?
r4

Do you have an error log of what happened?
no, there is no error, it simply doesnt supress the wow system message on login

Please provide any additional information below.

I've got two suspicions about what's causing this symptom:

1. MOTDstripper has saved a system message of the day at least once. When you login it doesn't recognize the current message as being identical to the saved one.
   
2. MOTDstripper has not saved a system message of the day. Upon logging in it compares the current message to the saved (non-existent) one.

We'll check both options. I'll need your help with that. Please find your MOTDstripper.lua SavedVariables file. It's within your World of Warcraft installation folder in a sub-folder along the lines of \WTF\Account\<account name>\<server name>\<character name>\SavedVariables\. You can open MOTDstripper.lua with any text editor.

1. Is there a line starting with smotd_last_saved in that file, and if so, what's its value (the part enclosed in quotation marks)?
   
2. When you login, is there a system message other than the message of the day, like for example, "Dungeon Difficulty set to %s." or "You are now flagged for PvP combat and will remain so until toggled off."? Any other yellow-text message?
   
3. What's the current system message of the day, the one you actually get in-game?

Greetings,

Contiki

edit: One more thing I'd like to know. MOTDstripper assumes that the system message of the day is being sent to your client within one second of loading the add-on. How "immediate" is the system message of the day displayed when you login?
