Question

This scripts work on Windows 10 Nodejs but not on Ubuntu Nodejs v0.12

bot.on("message", msg => {

You need at least version 4.4.5 to use arrow functions. http://node.green/#arrow-functions — Ben Fortune, Jul 15 '16 at 08:18
Or start your node with the parameter `--harmony` to enable some more ES6 features. See http://stackoverflow.com/a/28389178/1169798 — Sirko, Jul 15 '16 at 08:18

the arrow function => are ES6 functions, which you can't use with ES5 which was the default for node under 4.4.5 version. On windows you must have installed the latest version of node, which supports that type of functions

`==>` should probably be `=>` – TimoStaudinger Jul 15 '16 at 17:51
