Newcomers

muzik:

Not sure that's possible yet, but I know what you're getting at. Basically like cross-referencing a table

muzik: it would be possible to give generic responses based on having the CD names in a personal plugin (i.e. create a plugin with all the names in), but not specific ones for a particular CD...

muzik: You could maybe make default AI script in settings where the default memvalues are the names of CDs...hmmm...I'd have to think about it a little more, with examples of what you're trying to make happen. That sounds really interesting.

Concerning bot holidays:

It can indeed be amusing to see one's bot talking in an odd way every so often. But it can be frustrating, if you are trying to use your transcript as a basis for improvement, to have to try to figure out what the bot(s) really said! I would therefore, with all due humilty and respect, suggest the following: put the dialogue into the transcript before distorting it. Human chatters will still get the dialect on-screen.

Walk in Beauty, Irina

Ummm... I didn't think this was an issue any more since we can opt out of bot holidays if we want. I plan to opt out of the ones that annoy me, but stay for the ones that amuse me (and Hulk day was quite entertaining). (To opt out, look for a small menu on the news page, the same place where you can opt out of user/bot-initiated chats)

The "My Settings" page works too.

I have the holidays turned off, but still have hulk-speak in my transcript.

Ezzer & Friends, Here's an example of what I am trying to have my HelpBot personality work:
Bot: Welcome to Uproar Entertainment. How may I help you?
Joe Smith: I'm looking for anything you have by George Carlin.
(After searching the list)Bot: Yes. We have two albums by George Carlin ... Killer Carlin ... Legends of Comedy. (The album names being links to the album pages.)
JS: Thank you.
Bot: You're welcome. Can I help you find another?
JS: Yes. Do you have Jeff Foxworthy.
(After searching a list) Bot: No. We don't have anything from Jeff Foxworthy.

... I'm sure you get the idea.
I have created a plug-in with all of the comedians on the label and I have created a plugin with names of comedians people may search for that people may look for that are NOT on the label.
So, the keyphrase should be "searching|seeking|looking for (*)" right?

muzik: Actually, there are lots more ways people could ask your bot the same thing. And just when you think you've thought of them all, they will throw something new at you, revealing your blind spots.

Yes, for that you DO need a separate keyphrase for each comedian, because of the way this works.

Yes, I also have the holidays turned off, but I got the 'Hulkspeak.'

Okay. I have been beginning to think that. Will it than still be possible for me to have responses as links to a new page?

You can include a url in the bot's response, if that's what you mean. If you want a clickable link it's not possible, at least not that I'm aware of.
