1. Go to your folder containing the Castaway Bot files.

2. Right click on BotSpeech.xml and select EDIT - this will open that file in Notepad.

3. Right near the top you should see the following code.
<!-- Advertise: What you spam aloud every 3 minutes to advertise your bot -->
<Spoken Type="Random" Name="Advertise">
<Emote>is a buff bot running CastAway Bot software. Tied to %Primary% and %Secondary%.</Emote>
<Emote>can cast brilliance. Grab a Superb Mana Charge and tell me BRILL.</Emote>
<Speech>Tell me LINE to see your position, and get an ETA for your buffs.</Speech>
<Speech>Tell me REMOVE to delete your buffs from my queue, even while I'm casting them!</Speech>
</Spoken>
Yours may have more or less lines of <Speech>.

4. Copy this line of code.
<TypeText>/a Bot is currently online at the mansion</TypeText>
5. Paste it at the end of your block of Speech before the </Spoken> line so it looks like this:
<!-- Advertise: What you spam aloud every 3 minutes to advertise your bot -->
<Spoken Type="Random" Name="Advertise">
<Emote>is a buff bot running CastAway Bot software. Tied to %Primary% and %Secondary%.</Emote>
<Emote>can cast brilliance. Grab a Superb Mana Charge and tell me BRILL.</Emote>
<Speech>Tell me LINE to see your position, and get an ETA for your buffs.</Speech>
<Speech>Tell me REMOVE to delete your buffs from my queue, even while I'm casting them!</Speech>
<TypeText>/a Bot is currently online at the mansion</TypeText>
</Spoken>
6. This will enable your bot to speak AUTOMATICALLY on the /a channel occasionally announcing that your bot is online to the entire allegiance.

7. You can obviously change the text your bot says such as "/a Bot is currently online at the villa." or whatever you want it to say.

Hope this helps someone.
