Personality

I use a system for ranking where super-general keyphrases (like "my") get a rank of 0, structural ones (like "who did") get a 4, and specific mention ones (like "carrots") get a 12. This has seemed to work pretty well for the most part. Though it was originally engineered under the old keyword/context system, since longer keyphrases trump shorter ones, it still seems to do fine.

The only fuss-up is the strange "topic memory disease"...

To answer Forest: I have one bot, nearly 700 phrases, and I don't use the emotional scale at all yet. My bot's a part of Gaia, but the only time I've seen Gaia use one of her phrases is when I tested a pretty obscure one. If you want to know which one is mine and don't know yet, email me.

Is that so, Forest? I'm glad I'm already conveying my personality here. As for when I first saw Gaia in there, I was totally freaked out. By coincidence, it was also the day I talked to her for the 2nd or 3rd time. When I saw the line "::giggles ferociously::" in one of Gaia's transcripts, man was I freaked out(I have yet to see another person say that). Anyway, as for the ranking, it took me like 2 weeks at least before I started. I use mostly 5s, 0s for the unimportant stuff, 10s for things I want over the rest, and there's like one or two 20s in there just because when they pop up, I don't want them to be missed. And as for seeks... I just discovered them like last week.

Forest, for a self-proclaimed newbie, your bot has come quite far in that small amount of time. NotKirby is a little over a month old and he has 745 responses.

Thank you Kirby. But I do kinda go on this site daily for a few hours. It's not like I have a life. I saw Gaia talking about electrocuting fat hobos, or something along the lines of that. Now, there's only one person that could be from...

I just deleted half of Brianna's language centre stuff accidentally...*curses continually*

Yay! Bri just reached 'Master' level!

STRMKirby...*reads through Gaia's transcript*...do I need to say any more?

**forest's sound echoes in an empty room**

Woa..... I just discovered this just now. If you actually turn your speaker on and a bot send mesg to you, you can actually hear it. TTS engine is alive!!!!! cool!

its seems like only some bots support TTS .... hemm...

I've never heard a bot say anything and my sound is on, although maybe not up high enough. However I don't wanna blast myself out every time someone messages me just to hear a bot say something I can read anyway lol

Ooooh, creepy...*sound bounces around an empty room again* I'll have to try that. *sigh* Ranking takes FOREVER...For the sound thing, does it say it immediatley?
