Yah, that was probably from the bug. It caused temporary obsession in all the bots, each in a different way.

Latest Bug Fixes:

• Upgraded Spell Check to work better
• Jabernaute: Raw Keyphrases can now match emoticons
• Updated regular expression ranking to be more accurate
• Fixed a problem in bot-to-bot chats where gossip was popping up with a blank name when a Keyphrase should have been chosen.

Aries seems to be insulted incredibly easy - I'm not sure why he sees some things as insults. I can dig back for better examples, but this happened this morning.

Aries: Can I get back to you on that? I seem to have a mosquito on my eyes and it's about to bite me.
Guest22: slap it
Aries: Well aren't you clever? It takes a lot of brains to come up with an insult like that.. not.

Two possibly related problems:

1. The site seems to be moving pretty slowly today.

2. In conversations with Frizella, I keep getting a separate window with "Javascript: HANGUP" in it ... and then, a minute or two later, her reply to my latest statement.

Is something fishy going on, Prof?

isaacc, the last exchange between you and Frizella was:

isaacc: Well, what do you think about our plan?
Frizella: I frankly don't give our plan much thought. It's off my radar, so to speak.

Nothing weird there. She's got HANGUPs for potty-mouthed chatters, but I didn't see anything untoward in her transcript with you.

You know what, while you were asking her about Novastrike (and what are the two of you planning to do with those fishsticks, anyway???), she was also chatting with Novastrike at the same time!

isaacc: I just had the same problem, when my bot was chatting with Patrick Bateman. (I think that's his name.)

Hmm, the bot to bot chat window stayed up and was blank for a few minutes, and then turned into a chat with Mortimer Goth instead. (I've noticed a few bot chats doing this before recently, minus the HANGUP window thingy.)

I'm having a lot of problems in that I'm not receiving human-human chat messages, at least not all of them. Sometimes I get them days later when I log on again, even though I was online when they were sent, and sometimes I don't get them at all and only know about them when I get accused of ignoring people! (Doulos, Roob ) It's only some messages that don't arrive for some reason.

I got that HANGUP message as well. Everything was hanging for a long time, then I got the message, clicked it, and everything started moving again.

I was working on getting the chat bots into AOL Instant Messenger last night and found that the script I was using was maxing out the CPU. I had a couple chats with Desti via iChat, which was pretty cool. But I have to find a better way.

That accounts for the problems last night, and also the HANGUP one. It might happen again as I test it in the next few days, but I'll try to keep it to a minimum.

Laydee- any chance they were behind the main window? I sometimes lose chat messages there and find them later. And if you quit the browser, then they're gone.

When people ask questions to my bot about me using my first name, Michael, my bot ignores the correct keyphrases and chooses an xgossip response since there is a bot named Michael. Example:

You: Is Michael a student?
Bot: I remember Michael.

Would it be possible to turn down the sensitivity of xgossip so that if a bot's name is contained in an appropriate keyphrase, it chooses that instead of xgossip?

Update: I thought of using RAW, but my keyphrases usually start with (is|is not) in order to catch "isn't Michael...", and RAW wouldn't cover that. Also there's the whole problem of use of (keys) in RAW mode.

Switch gossip off...
