@xm15blade, not sure if i understood your problem. Your bot connects to the IRC channel, gets the announces, your filter picks up the torrents but they load in a "do not download" state?

Try this. Open the "Add Torrent" dialog. Uncheck the "Don't start the download automatically" and close the dialog with the "X"

OR on your filter under the "Action" tab don't use the .torrent action "Use global settings" but rather choose rtorrent (if that's the client of your choice)
