ircChan: '#mer-meeting',
tgGroup: 'Mer-meeting :: One-way connection, if you want to participate join on IRC at http://webchat.freenode.net/?channels=mer-meeting',
tgGroupReadOnly: true
}
This resulted to a lot of spam at IRC and SSHing in and trying to investigate the issue, I see that a chatid file hasn't been stored.
I think the bot should possibly warn about chatid not being stored very loudly in the Telegram group or something so this wouldn't happen. The group in question has now been renamed.

it's not the length but the forward slashes, specifically the url scheme part in your telegram group name. I had planned on reworking the chatid storage but i never got around to it.
