Okay I can confirm that doing a rebuild after a rename causes it to work again. But unless I’m doing something wrong I still think there are issues after a rename.

If I send a PM directly to my renamed bot it works great. But if I respond in a topic or in a PM to just myself and mention the bot it doesn’t work:

#### Message to myself:

#### PM to my renamed bot (this works)
