xlr8or/big-brother-bot — Issue #75: python 3.x - B3 does not work and show no relevant error message

B3 is not compatible with python 3.x

## what's expected

B3 should detect that it starts from a python 3.x interpreter and show a user friendly error message and stop.

## what's really happening

See [forum topic](http://forum.bigbrotherbot.net/general-discussion/b3-error-hmm/)
