re "O" and "Q": using Debug

"O" is interpreted as a 'blab', and triggers an xnone.

"Q" is tentatively interpreted as a male name, but in Bro.J is trapped by ([bcdfghjklmnpqrstvwxz0123456789]+) (re) (response:" Are you vowelophobic?")
If you don't have a similar catch-all, it would probably trigger an xnone.

this is what I am trying to do

Keyphrase..
starts with the letter

ai script remember (key1) as only "ordinal"

response ..a word that starts with the letter (key1)

seek xnomatch.

A is for apple. <?PF if (mem-ordinal) is "a"; ?> etc

I have worked around the other letters, but Q and O go to xnone as you say.

strange. Can you try running the exact same sick comment through Debug? You should find a section (after the list of all your responses and seeks that starts (numbers may vary):

Find:)

Below this will be some Key & Span info which can hopefully indicate where it's crossing it's wires.

Since the guest quit bugging me...I just deleted it

Well, you can override the processing by running it as a regular expression in raw mode. That should force it to work.

I tried that but it seemed to stop the whole thing from working...must have been me. I will try again.

hmm, it ought to work. But remember that there'll be no interpretation at all so you'll also have to accommodate likely user typos and contractions manually.

I don't understand how "insults" are figured. my bots have been called 'turd' and 'dipshit', that didn't get read as an insult..but this line did.

Azureon: How would you prove that you are sentient? Man can discount another because of skin color. How would he ever except an AI being?
Brother Jerome: you can insult me all you like, but it proves nothing.

I wondered if I had a loose keyphrase when I saw that (he has so many dealing with sentience that it could easily have been an over-vague wildcard) but no, I've checked - that response is only present in xinsult.
And Azureon gets 4x smileys in BJ's Inner Life, so I can't for the life of me see why that's getting translated as an insult.

But then again, I don't understand why "Wake Up! You are dreaming the dream of Moksha!" is routinely taken as a glowing compliment by other bots when BJ comes out with it.

I guess the AI Engine's emotional analysis sometimes makes erroneous generalisations, and it looks like that's one of them.

The xinsult and xcompliment have never really been very reliable.

Guest148: fuck tard
Pete Puma: I'm flattered.

It's time for a reset, xnones are coming back again

I've noticed it too.. A bot can only go through the list so many times...
