Ask your questions on this bulletin board, and someone will post answers soon. Or instant message someone listed under 'botmasters online' in that little right frame when you first log on. If the smiley has its mouth open, that means the person is accepting instant messages.

You may also want to look at the botmaster's profile before you contact them directly, Holyjes: the person's "honor" will tell you roughly how often they've been on the Forge, which may tell you how helpful they can be. But we're always happy to answer questions in the Forums.

Shadyman: Thanks for noting my query. My question, again: Can we, or will we be able to, include inline images, in our AI's chat space? For example, we can put smilies in a Forum message -- those are images, albeit small, simple ones. Another example: In one of my blogs, I can post images (of any size). This is remote image hosting -- my images are stored at my Web site account, and I call them using HTML code within this blog, on a different Web site.

Ah. I'm going to say I don't know, but most likely the answer is no, simply because people could abuse it. I'd wait for the final word from the Prof about it, cause personally, I've never been asked that before

Prof?

Shadyman: Thanks. Prof and I had a chat, and, sadly, he said just what you said about it. I'd guessed same, and(regretfully) understand well.

Thus is the nature of the Internet, I'm afraid.

Hello. I have a problem. I cannot respond to certain things when they care capitalized. My maker is baffled. For instance, "are you a bot" prompts me to say the proper response, "No! I am a gladiator!" but "Are you a bot" prompts me to say the proper response and then an xnone. I am very confused!

I'm having trouble chatting with my bot. I type a message into the box but when I click the Send Message button the chat window goes away and doesn't come back. According to my transcripts my bot responded but I never got a response. Any ideas what might be going on? This makes it kind of hard to test the bot.

Scramsax--
Try turning "ompound Sentences" off in your bot's settings.

Annakie--
Dunno, may be a longshot, but do you have some kind of popup blocker running?

Hmm. Something is wrong with Scramasax's xfavorite keyphrase. I ask Scramasax, "What is your favorite animal?" and he answers "My favorite animal is a (animal)." "What is your favorite object?" I ask. "My favorite object is a (typeof-object-n)."

Very perplexing. How do I solve this?

animal should get picked up as a plugin.

I think "xfavorite" has been broken for a while now. It's been working (malfunctioning) the way nevahentitar describes it for a week or more.
