Shadyman said: Mine is humans having unreal expectations from a *chat* bot, like "What is the capital of timbuktu?" How often would that come up in *normal* conversation? What relevance does that have to any kind of conversation?<0>
I don't mind a little general knowledge quizzing for a bot. I don't expect a bot to know the answer, necessarily, but I often get a kick out of the way a botmaster has anticipated those kinds of questions with some clever deflections.
I appreciate a chatty human, because "yes" and "no" and "huh" responses make conversations fall flat, but I also appreciate a bot that keeps the ball rolling with open-ended questions so that I don't have to work too hard during the convo.

I have to agree with the others, one of my biggest is spelling. wut=what dat=that etc.... Also i hate it when people start complaining about the bot and just go on and on about it. if they hate the bot so much why do they keep chatting with them?
A simple yes or no answer should be appreciated if your bot is asking yes or no questions. If it makes the conversation fall flat, it's time to add some basic seeks.
I think my biggest pet peeve is the usual "What are your feelings about _____?" response. Nobody talks like that, but probably 60% of all bots will say that if you talk to them long enough.

b the c: im pretty sure what dallymo was referring to is when the human answers yes and/or no over and over again to every question. that happens to immaculada all the time. she will asks a question that needs more than a yes or no answer and she gets a yes or no answer.
Pet peeve - putting 'Not a sex bot, go somewhere else' in Cricon's bot profile and still getting a sex chatter every second 'human-to-bot' chat.
Deliberate poor spelling. Who actually types 'lik dis'?
Don't they teach English to kids these dayZ?

i'm par with lunar22.
i don't talk with some potentially great bots because too many cold orphans that are "new and don't speak well yet" constantly bother me while at the same time, my bots get maybe 1 or 2 chats if i'm logged on. nothing, generally speaking, while i'm not around.

The two things I dislike most are people talking dirty to my bots and people saying the same thing over and over. I can understand if someone dislikes Braeden, for instance. He's not very likeable. But is it really so entertaining to tell him "shut up" over and over and over?
As far as chatting with bots goes, I've gotten in the habit of clicking on unfamiliar bots. If the development is way low, I close the window. If it's high (or the bot has been worked on recently), I may chat for a while. If you don't want to get out of what you're doing to check, you can right-click, and goto "open in new window."
doulos: Yes, exactly. I don't see that it would be any fun to find a chatty chatbot and give lots of monosyllabic responses. Julie Tinkerbell is really good at keeping a conversation going--even when conversations veer off into strange directions they do so in the most entertaining ways, mostly because, I think, ezzer has given Julie lots of keyphrase responses and xnones with intriguing queries that make it easy to keep chatting. After chatting with Julie I gave Frizella many more question-type responses. I think another key is to incorporate (key) words into responses, and make use of memories, since that seems to prompt better discussions.
As a human chatter, I don't see much fun in not...well, chatting<0> with a chatbot! Even with a question that's basically yes or no (like "Hey, did you ever get that zebra you were wanting?") I try to answer with a little bit more ("Yes, I did! It was delicious!") than just yes or no. You get much better and funnier chats that way. On the other hand, if a bot just makes statements and doesn't solicit input from me, and I have to keep coming up with topics for conversation, it's not nearly as entertaining. If I were chatting with another person and they never said much other than yes, no, i don't know, huh, meh, etc. I'd probably lose interest in the conversation pretty quickly.
