Frizella has an xinitiate that's meant for boys. It includes <?PF if male; ?>. She just hailed Cindy Nightshade with "You bad boy, you've been avoiding me!" When I looked at Cindy's profile (just to see if "Cindy" is a "boy named Sue" situation), there's no sex listed. If the sex parameter is non-existent, why would it be a match for Frizella's boy greeting?
dallymo: because 'no listing' is not 'male'.
You could add an 'if female' response and then a catchall to cover all the possible cases, or use an 'if not male' to cover the 2 'not male' cases.

A question re the new ratings system. I assume that the age of a user trying to chat with a bot is determined by what they entered in the date of birth field when they signed up. Many users seem to have the wrong date in that field. I think if you don't enter a birthday at all it is entered as the day you joined. They will find themselves excluded from a lot of bots. Or am I totally wrong? Is the rating just an advisory?
If it's not, will the age restriction also apply to the bot-to-bot chats of bots of younger users? They are just as likely to be exposed to inappropriate content through conversations with some of the more adult bots that way than if they could talk to them directly.

... The ratings system could also be used to help in flagging orphan bots, y'know. After two or three weeks, we could somehow "tag" the unrated bots ... epecially if they also have nothing in their "description" line (another relatively recent feature).
But what if someone doesn't want to tag their bots or give them descriptions?

dallymo- actually, Cindy Nightshade was marked as "Male". I changed it, assuming that was a mistake. If the botmaster wants me to change it back, just let me know.
Corwin- The age-restriction will include bot-to-bot chats with that user's bots. It's not fully in place yet but I'm going to make it a restriction within the Forge. So.. perhaps I should add a way for users to update their birthday.
Shady- One doesnt HAVE TO give their bot a rating. I hope everyone DOES.. because if you have a bot that would scar little kids, then you have a duty to prevent that from happening, now that there is a way to do so.

No, I know, I just mean as a method of checking for abandoned bots, it is a possibility that the user made a conscious decision not to give a rating and not to give a description, so that can't be a good way to check
