Something is sending lines that don't follow the MRC format. IIRC each line is meant to contain the user name, the BBS name, the channel, the message, and some other stuff, with each of these fields being separated by a ~.

Would you guess that these lines are originating from your BBS, or that they're coming in from somewhere else? (Is anyone on your BBS and using MRC when this happens? Are they typing the messages about Biden and the Ukraine or whatever turns up in the log?)

It's possible that the protocol has changed since I wrote the client, or I'm not handling multi-line messages properly, or somebody wrote a broken MRC client/bot/whatever that's generating bad messages. Hard to say.
