This isn't a bug. The same thing can happen if you use %s incorrect in the ctrl/text.dat file.If you know the value/variable you want in the string, use JS variables to get the value.e.g. `bbs.replace_text(708,"%s at Multi Relay Chat via " + client.protocol); `

A little more background: the extended node status has the following replacement variables that must be specified in the following order if/when used: ```sprintf(str,text[NodeActionMain+node->action] ,useron.alias ,useron.level ,getage(&cfg,useron.birth) ,useron.sex ,useron.comp ,useron.ipaddr ,unixtodstr(&cfg,useron.firston,firston) ,node->aux&0xff ,node->connection );```Since useron.level is an integer number (not a string), using %s in its position would be expected to crash the BBS.With this is in mind, it's just much better to put the values you know you want to see in the string itself and not use printf-specifiers (e.g. %s) for variable-replacement.
