Should we be afraid... very afraid?!

Yeah, it gives the 123's a bad name! Not to mention Haggis

I half suspect the Prof created them - at least I can't think of how else they could come to be.

Has someone hacked into the system, perhaps?

Could just be a bug - a bad foreign key, update/delete anomaly, denormalisaton error, all that sort of guff

I have a question I hope someone can help me with. In troubleshooting my bot, I got the following:

Me: What are some of your favorite books?
My Bot: I hate you.

I hadn't yet programmed an answer for the favorite books question, but on the other hand why did it go to the most negative possible answer from xemote instead of going to xnone, or xnonsense? Better yet, how do I set it so it won't do that in the future for other questions?

Why it's defaulting to that response, I can't say (though if it's any consolation, BJ hates me too. Seems to be an occupational hazard of testing keyphrases.)
The solution is reasonably clear:

your * favourite (book|books)
your * favourite (music|band)
your * favourite cheese
your * favourite ... etc.

and ranked slightly lower to catch any unspecified favourites:

your * favourite (noun)

User1: would you like a spanking ?
Liath: I'd love to like lightswitch!
User2: would you do a striptease for me ?
Liath: I'd love to do floppy disk!

Does anyone know what exactly is going on here? The keyphrase is "would you like to (verb), do you want to (verb)" and the response used (key1) which was replaced with, well, lightswitch and floppy disk... why?

Note on favourite: The AI Engine defaults to the American spelling, favorite, so keyphrases with the British spelling won't pick up except in raw mode.

oops - very true! Force of habit I'm afraid - it can be tricky to think in 2 languages at once

I think the mystery bots' makers got their accounts deleted, or were banned. It doesn't seem likely for the forge to randomly delete bots.

A tip for anyone who wants to use a keyphrase beginning with "x" - put the word in brackets. I was trying to get BJ to recognise "Xenon" and found that if you enter it as it is, it appears in x-keywords (but with no rank,) and unsurprisingly doesn't actually work.
But "(Xenon)" does work (in raw mode,) by making the AIEngine interpret it as a local plugin with a single field (although it is still listed under x-keywords with no rank.)
An alternative approach that also works (and provides some spell correction,) is to make it a regex: "[xz]enon (re)", or "[zx]enon (re)" (in raw mode). Curiously both of these still get listed under x-keyphrases as well.
