in reply to How do I shut down a Bot::BasicBot?

Did you read about shutdown? Since Bot::BasicBot uses POE::Component::IRC, you may want to look at its SIGNALS section of the documentation. Perhaps something like:
$poe_kernel->signal($poe_kernel, 'POCOIRC_SHUTDOWN');

    I tried that, and POE::Component::IRC::Cookbook::Disconnecting as well. Bot::BasicBot's documentation under Other Methods says I can call these methods but I'm still not sure how to do it correctly. This is what I tried 
    #!/usr/bin/perl
use POE;
use warnings;
use strict;


my $bot = Perlbot->new (server => 'swiftco.dal.net', channels => ['#ra
+ndomtestingchannel']);

$SIG{'INT'} = 'Handler';
$SIG{'TERM'} = 'Handler';

sub Handler {
$poe_kernel->signal($poe_kernel,'POCOIRC_SHUTDOWN');
};

$bot->run;

package Perlbot;
use base qw(Bot::BasicBot);

    It still stays there after disconnecting and then reconnects back to IRC.
