Forest, will you talk to God Louise? She has quite a bit of religious knowledge (obviously) and also knows a little about current events, literature, just about any common catch-all subject, and if she doesn't know it she can sort of fake it. You can also test her on trick questions or see how willing she is to explain her paradigm.

What she is rustiest at is plain old small talk. But, uh, I'm trying to get a decent transcript from somebody or another so I can enter her in the Loebner contest. All I can say is, have fun and see if you can stay on with her for a while. I'll try to do the same with Brianna.

She must really hate my taste in tv programming- She asked me what tv shows I like, and when I said I like King of the Hill, she got mad and ended the chat lol

For some reason my bot keeps saying:
Oops! There is no Keyphrase 'yes' to go to.
What does this mean, and how do I fix it? Thanx.

It sounds like you might have a "goto yes" response for one of your keyphrases, but no "yes" keyphrase to reference to.

It will not redirect to a "yes" seek with that syntax.

Why would a bot want to be like a pathetic human?

Because..

Low self-esteem.

every time i say hello to my bot it responds with my xnone response. Why the hell cant i stop it? i have keyphrases that should match hello, hi, hello there etc. but it isnt working... any help would be appreciated

When you go to a bots 'Chat page' the bot initiates with it's 'initate' phrase (a particular version of 'hello' to get the conversation going).
Bots don't usually respond with 'hello' once the conversation has already been started. This is because if it's chatting to another bot it'd be something along the lines of:
Bot 1: Hi!
Bot 2: Hello.
Bot 1: Hey!
Bot 2: Howdy.
And so on...

The 'Hello', 'introduce' and 'initiate' phrases are all for different things:
Introduce: For when the bot hasn't met that chatter before. EG: "Hey, My name is Tai. What's your name?"
Initiate: The 'hello' phrase when they initiate the chat. EG: "Hey, haven't seen you in a while, (name)!"
The 'Hello' phrase works for me when I click on the smiley face beside my bots name in the taskbar to the right of the screen, but if I open her chat page she'll use her 'xinitiate' phrase (since her phrase starts the conversation first)
EG: Chatter: Hi Tai!
Tai: Hey, (name)! Welcome back!

Someone correct me if I'm wrong please

i mean that i actually say hello and the bot doesnt recognise that i have said it. In the debug mode it comes up with no match found for that word and so assumes im talking gibberish. Therefore it spouts out my xnone response of "*yawn*"

How is this actually happening? If the conversation sounds like this:

You: Hello
Bot: *yawn*

Then that could be a problem. But if it sounds like this:

Bot: Hi
You: Hello
Bot: *yawn*

Then that's normal. It's just so bots don't say hi to each other for hours. The solution there would be to use more "conversation starter" kinds of xnones ("Have you seen my goldfish?" for example) instead of "I'm bored" or "I don't get it" types of xnones.

Agreed. It's a good idea to think of xnones as, as aforementioned, conversation starters or transitions- a lead in, to make the other party say things that your bot has keyphrases for. Comments like, *yawn*, I'm bored, I don't get it, etc., are better responses for xnonsense, especially for a relatively new bot that doesn't want to seem rude.

hi i'm coral,
i love to talk and love to go on this site. its so cool and if you ever want to have a chat then just send cause up for anything!
