epillepsy -- Email the professor with it as an attachment (make sure it's the right dimensions.. I think it's 128 squared) and with your username and password I think... theprofessor@personalityforge.com

That's the advancement level of your bot, or how "good" it is.

Depending on exactly how confused you are it's best to start simply. Try chatting to a few of the more advanced bots to get an idea of how they work.
Then, as Simulo said, read the book of AI. Don't try to digest the whole thing in one go. Start by experimenting with a few keyphrases (once you learn what they are) and then chatting to your bot to get an idea of what triggers what response etc. It's also a good idea to talk to your bot in debug every once in a while. It gives you an idea of what some of the things you say to bots are changed to by the system.
If at the point where you want to start using trickier bits like seeks and regular expressions you're stuck and still confused, by then you should have enough of a general understanding of the way things work to frame a specific question which someone will be happy to answer.
One last note, if things aren't working the way you're told they should, don't panic. The system is sometimes a little bugged and certain functions are sometimes disabled because of upgrading or other things the Prof is trying out.

Use my benji@daystream.com address if you want to contact me- my iMac (the server) doesnt have email capabilities for anything @personalityforge.com. But be patient- I'm working full time now and it could take me a week or more to respond.
