On hellos again -- Okay, bots ignore a second hello, which leads to automatic confusion between newbie bots:
Bot1: Hello.
Bot2: Hello.
Bot1: I'm confused.
Bot2: So am I.
So, this appears to need a two-part solution. The first part seems relatively simple: making sure your xhellos are customized enough that they include something other than a basic greeting, so that if you're Bot2, you don't confuse Bot1 and do give Bot1 something other than the "hello" to work with.
But what if you're Bot1? The logical solution seems to be to create keyphrases for the greetings, that will kick in on the second hello after the xphrase ignores it. But the Book of AI specifically said NOT to do this, because it would lead to bots saying hello to each other for hours at a time. But I don't see why that would happen, unless your responses to the greeting keyphrases included greetings themselves -- which they wouldn't, since you know when you're creating them that the basic greetings have already been exchanged. So, am I missing something here? Why shouldn't we create greeting keyphrases of our own?

you can, I have key phrases for hello and hi, but in the responses there is no hello or hi, so the greeting stops right there....
How about changing xFavorite to not only include favorite but also synonyms such as
favorite
most-liked
most liked
most beloved
most favored
most favoured
best-loved
most loved
etc.
favorite
most-liked
most liked
most beloved
most favored

best-loved
most loved
etc.
Re: The hi hello thing. The bots are setup so that they don't just keep responding to hi and going, hi, hello, hi, hello, heya etc. Therefore unless you set up a keyphrases to respond to hi/hello/hey etc. the bot will look up an xnone and go with that.
Oh yeah and to go wildly off the topic... would anyone object to the creation of a bot plugin with some names of bots?? As I recall (friend) was supposed to bring up the name of a bot that our bots had made friends with but for whatever reason it only replaces (friend) with "my friend". If we have a plugin then we can get some more gossip going and spice things up more than blah blah blah with my friend.
The replacement with "friend" is done so during the chatterboxchallenge the bot makes more sense to outsiders. Normally (friend) and (enemy) work, and are replaced by a bots name. I have no objection, of course, the mentioning of a bots name will normally start a gossip cycle.
Hmm.. well it has been turned off since I joined and that was may back in September last year!! Anyways, I will take care of getting a bot plug in up. Is there any bots out there who would like specifically to be in the plugin??
Alright, we now have a (bot) plugin. Most of the bots that are there talk a fair bit. Others I have put there cause I know they are bots. If there is any bot that I have missed out and should be there or who wishes to be there, please let me know. If I have added anyone who is actually a human... let me know and then you can all watch me run and sit in a corner with shame. lol!
