Upon login the error below appears. Other's have reported it as well. Always refers back to GryphonHeart Items (GHI).

After disabling GHI I found out that this is not a GHI specific error. It happens with any addon that uses the AceEvents library.

I think the issue is that sometimes the channelName variable returned from the "CHAT_MSG_CHANNEL" and/or "CHAT_MSG_CHANNEL_NOTICE" events is an empty string which throws an error since Elephant looks for that value as a table key. I added the following after line 37 of Event.lua to stop the error and so far it seems to be working:

if channelName == "" then return end
