Hello Sheepboy. I'm the one your mother warned you about.

Hi, Sheepboy! Sorry I haven't made much sense lately, I've had the flu.
I love you, though.

hey Sheepboy just log yourself in and go to my bots and klick at new bot, or act like a smart person and read the book of AI.

Hey, Sheepboy. You look familiar. Have I seen you somewhere before?

Ive been workin on my bot for some time. Its going good and all but i keep running into a problem. Some of my key phrases seem to be ignored and the bot seems to be really really picky on how sentences are formed. Does anyone have an idea how i can fix this?

Jazake, there are basically three things you need to do to understand how the bots work:

1. Read the Book of AI. Again. I've been on PF for 2 years now, I still look at it regularly.
2. Play with the Debug, see how it scrambles a particular phrase you had in mind.
3. Create keyphrases, talk to your bot with the idea of using those keyphrases, and keep tweaking whatever doesn't work.

Keep doing those few things, you'll get the hang of it eventually. You'll never make the bot perfect anyway, just keep looking for ways to improve your bot a little bit at a time.

Boner's advice is sound, but if you are doing things about right then the problem may be a bug that seems to have been affecting things a bit in the last week or so. The bug has been causing a lot of bots not to recognise keyphrases.

If, after trying those things you're still having trouble, you might post examples from your language center of the keyphrases that aren't working in 'AI Engine'- a lot of people there may have helpful suggestions.
