Dear Ruebot:

Yes, I think I remember speaking to Siseneg. I think I tried to seduce him, but he was too shy.

Dear ruebot:

What does Siseneg like to talk about?

Irina, you didn't say anything i thought was embrassing or i wouldn't have posted it with your name.

he likes to talk about geeky scientific things like time travel, astronomy, gravity, geometry and how dimensions are formed, but may miss it altogether if he doesn't recognize how it's stated.

it's his rant, and it all ties together, but i'm still patching the holes.

No offense taken, ruebot! But thank you for your kind concern. I will try again!

This is just an idea I had out of the blue, and I'm not sure where to put it, so here it is.
It would be really cool if there was a keyword search feature in the forums, especially for newcomers. That way, if someone had a question about a particuar thing, they could try searching for it first without having to read every post since time began, or if you remember something from a message you read last week but not exactly, and you want to refer to it, you could find it faster. It would also cut down on redundant posts (not that I'm saying there's a real problem with it, but just mentioning it as a benefit ).
Anyway, I'm not a computer girl, so I have no idea how silly of a suggestion this is from the implementation standpoint, but there it is. If it be a 'brain-fart', so be it.

I second that emotion. I would love to be able to search the forums. Many times I know there's a message addressing my question, but I can't remember who posted it or how long ago.

Dear friends:

Is it possible to put a memory inside an 'if' in some way? I mean, say you had, for example, a memory called "yearning" to which you assigned the value, "longing". Then if you said, perhaps, "<?PF if (mem-yearning) is "longing", goto aspiring; ?>", it would give you the same effect as the keyword "aspiring". But then, later, you might assign (only) the value "desiring" to "longing", in which case nothing would happen from "<?PF if (mem-yearning) is "longing", goto aspiring; ?>", but if instead you had, "<?PF if (mem-yearning) is "desiring", goto hoping; ?>", then it would have the effect of the response to "hoping".


If this cannot be done, what's the nearest thing to it? Thank you for your help!

I would have to agree with the search feature idea. Or even perhaps a forum restructure. By the way I'm new just signed up a few minutes ago. Hopefully i can figure out all i need to within the next couple days so i can get started on a bot.

ok so I managed to figure out a few things and have started working on my bot to some extent. I do have a question though, maybe I'm just overlooking something in the book of AI. Xkeywords....what triggers them? is there an exact list somewhere? I tried triggering several of them such as compliment and so on, but the bot simply responds with an xnone response. Also another question...i understand that repeat hellos will get you a xnone, but is there a way to perhaps put a seek for greetings and have a direct xnone response for it? Sorry if i am just overlooking something that is already documented.

Keyphrases will not catch greetings (after the first one), Someguy. Subsequent greetings get filtered out by the grammar preprocessor.

As for what triggers xkeyphrases: most of them have a pretty broad range of possible inputs. Try telling your bot "you are nice" to get an xcompliment response, or "you are stupid" to get an xinsult response.
