(this is line #358)elseif cmd =="!pm" then
			local pl=tonumber(p[2])
			local msg=string.sub(p,6)
			if msg ~= nil and player(pl,"exists") then
				msg2(pl,"\169000255000From "..player(id,"name")..": "..msg)
				msg2(id,"\169000200000To "..player(pl,"name")..": "..msg)
			end

I get the error on the third line saying:

local msg=string.sub(p,6)

Try

local msg = p[3]

Unless we see the whole code, there's not much we can do.

Edit: Uh, lol. Nevermind.

What does p contain? You are trying to string.sub with the first parameter being a whole table, you need to use an entry.

p is a table, you can tell because he used p[2]. you cant use p as a parameter in string.sub obviously
