well, you * read * For Whom the Bell Tolls rank=30 works fine for me. No need for regexes, raw mode or blunderbusses.

I found one cause for the (read=victimize) problem. I had used this approach (tildes are tabs):
Do you like to (verb)?
-(verb)? I don't know how to (verb).

I thought that would repeat the identifed verb. Apparently it substitutes random verbs instead. Revising as
~(key1)? I don't know how to (key1).

I've done that by mistake on a few phrases (put in (adj) or (verb) instead of (key#)). So it's easy to do even when you know it should be a "key".

I'm going to start experimenting with the sentence parsing tools in the PF2 addenda. I get into cases where I don't want (key1) unless it is the verb.

i know this is of topic and sounds stupid but can i add some of you guys to my friends list? you can say no if you want

No, it's perfectly within the topic bounds.
Yes, you can add anyone you like. Or did you mean 'may'? Can't speak for anyone else, but you're welcome to add me.
We don't even have a way of knowing - why would we need/want to say no?

LOL @ Psimagus. You are starting to sound more teacherly than I do...and yes, "teacherly" is so a word. Would I lie?

LM I think you can add anyone. I only add bots to see when they are on line (and then I rarely have time to chat with them). I'm sure you can add people, but I'm not sure what it means.

LM - add who you like, fine with me.

i was basicly asking for your permision

My (enemy) plugin has been working fine for some time, though when I initially used it, it had nothing to plug in...I'd imagine your bot would have to really hate anther bot/user (5 frowns, maybe?) for it to use their name.

>> Really hate...
As I said, I'm trying to get it to work, and I've used the code above, and I have a "gentleman" in the bot's memory who is sitting permanently at -5 (nowhere to sink from there). So if it works, it must be one of those things you get to learn after the initiation?
