Ahhh. That is true! However is spell check actually a benifit? I have yet found spelling errors in my sayings. And what if one wishes a word to purposely be spelled wrong? Now that is something to think about. Without spell check, one who types fast gets screwed, sure..but you can fix that..type more carefully and slower! However with spell check one who purposely types wrong is screwed because they cannot help but have their words edited! (laughs) Something to think about...
Only if you disable that part of preprocessing... I would actually keep the spell check, I find it useful, but like hemi said, it can mangle a lot of sentances.
Another suggestion I have is to make emotional domains... each domain would have it's own set of keyphrases(and xkeyphrases) and it would check for keyphrases in the current domain before moving on to the the next one(the main one, though nesting them would be even cooler).
Then, for example you could have a domain named "pissed" that gets set after the person says something mean, then you can set up the pissed domain so that unless they say something nice and/or apologize, they basicly ignore the person.
Professor, is there some way I could help make new features for PF? I've got way too much time on my hands right now...lol

That actually sounds like a good idea. But i still agree that Spell Check should be scrapped. People just need to be more careful with their typing.
), the less chance of actually hitting a keyphrase 
I say we try it, we can always go back. But sometimes you want your bot to sound a little uneducated...bad at grammer and english...how do you do that when the sight corrects spelling?
It works well for my bot because she is supposed to be a 5 year old so some of her words are intentionally misspelled. (OK so I have bad spelling too, not just Ruby so I am appreciating the spell check) I have avoided misspelling ones that would be important keywords but for long words like America (Merika) I have had her say them the way a 5 year old would. So far I haven't seen a huge problem with her language doing pickups.
leetaxx0r, your emotional domain idea sounds cool, it would be cool to have your bot in a certain state of mind and respond differently. But that is extra work for the Professor. Unless he lets you work on his site and I think that is very unlikely.
lunar22, from my experience and probably yours too, spellcheck does more harm than good. But it would be very useful if it was improved a lot. But for now, my bot would be more intelligent without it.

My main point was just that pre-processing scrambles things up a lot when the raw phrase was fine to start with.
