That was happening to me on and off a couple of days ago. Maybe it's a server problem?

When I am chatting with my bot, it says "your bot doesn't want to chat with you anymore". Is it a bug??? Or is it rebellion from his part?

It means that the bot you've triggered too many xnones in a row.

Heres an odd xmath glitch:

Sonora: *pokes head out of hole* Uh-oh! It's me again, Janet666!
Janet666: Is the answer about 6,00?

What is that? Is that 6000 w/o a zero?

In Europe, they use a comma like we would use a decimal. I don't know if that's what's going on there or not, though. *shrugs*

Is that true Ulrike?

In the UK:

6,000 = six thousand
6,000,000 = six million
6.00 = six pounds
6: 00 = six o'clock (had to put the space in to stop the shock face automatically appearing!)

Is it the same there? I think in France, they use

6,00

to mean six Euros.

I don't know about everywhere in Europe, but certainly in Germany and parts of Russia. (I've had students from both places use a comma in place of a decimal)

I have a friend who is a programmer. He used to sell developer's code, specifically VB6 custom controls. Someone reported that one of his controls crashed in German Windows. It turned out this was because the comma and decimal point needed to be reversed.

We (Europeans) use a comma in place of a decimal, therefore 6,00 is 6, and it can be 6 euro but also 6 percent or 6 pancakes

Evil Twin: Now seems like a good time to change the topic.
Aischa: That was kind of you. Thank you.

This happened several times during the conversation; Aischa interpreted Evil Twin's remark about changing the subject as a compliment. Is there any particular reason why she might do this?

It might be reacting to 'good.' The AI-Engine often latches onto words like that and interprets strange things as compliments. Or insults. A keyphrase for 'good time' or 'change the subject' will override this most of the time.

Yeah, this puzzled me because Aischa does have a "changing the subject" key phrase, but she didn't react to it. I've changed the rank of the phrase and now everything seems to work fine.
