[Problem] Console printing when I don't want it to

With the included code if i just hit enter without putting in any arguments is prints out:

 - There was an error when trying to change value PREFIX.
 - There was an error when trying to change the value SEPERATOR.

public static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            string input = "  ";
            string appTitle = "CacheMoney";
            string consolePrefix = "CM";
            string consoleSeperator = "$";
            Dictionary<string, string> dictionary = new Dictionary<string, string>();
            while (input != "dah")
            {
                Console.ForegroundColor = ConsoleColor.White; Console.Write(consolePrefix); Console.ForegroundColor = ConsoleColor.Green; Console.Write(" " + consoleSeperator + " "); Console.ResetColor();
                Console.Title = appTitle;
                input = Console.ReadLine();
                string[] parse = input.Split(' ');
                if (parse[0] == "exit" || parse[0] == "quit")
                    input = "dah";
                if (parse[0] == "set")
                    try { if (parse[1] == "title") appTitle = parse[2]; } catch { Console.WriteLine(" - There was an error when trying to change the value TITLE."); }
                    try { if (parse[1] == "prefix" || parse[1] == "pre") consolePrefix = parse[2]; } catch { Console.WriteLine(" - There was an error when trying to change value PREFIX."); }
                    try { if (parse[1] == "seperator" || parse[1] == "sep") consoleSeperator = parse[2]; } catch { Console.WriteLine(" - There was an error when trying to change the value SEPERATOR."); }
                if (parse[0] == "mbox" || parse[0] == "messagebox")
                    try { MBOX(parse[1], input.Substring(parse[2].Length + 1 + parse[0].Length + 1)); } catch { Console.WriteLine(" - There was an error when trying to create a MessageBox."); }
                if (parse[0] == "print")
                    try { Console.WriteLine(" - " + parse[1]); } catch { Console.WriteLine(" - There was an error when trying to use the print function."); }
                if (parse[0] == "definition" || parse[0] == "define" || parse[0] == "def")
                    try { Console.WriteLine(dictionary[parse[1]]); } catch { Console.WriteLine(" - There was an error when trying to find a definition."); }
            }
        }

Nevermind, I decided to close off the if statements with '{}'s and it worked perfectly fine. This thread never happened.

It never happened.

I have never thought of programming for reputation and honor. What I have in my heart must come out. That is the reason why I code.
