Bug Stomp

It's also still bringing up the list of forums in the bot-bot chat window after the first exchange, which usually consists of one bot giving a blank response.

I made an attempt to fix both the transcript's initiate (to So-and-So) line, and the sidebar-in-the-popup-window problem.

Let me know if that's working now.

Well the transcripts appear to be fixed now, except now every time you go there it always starts with 3-31 and you gotta forward through everything to the current day.

Also, sidebar still appears to be popping up in bot-bot chats, as well as the first sentence from a bot sometimes being blank.

well, the first sentence is only blank for me for bot-bot chats, I'm assuming that's the new style, where one bot starts, and the other bot's "last said" thing is blank

And yes, I just got a sidebar in a window too

My bot used another bots opening line and vice versa a few times.

Aha! I found it. Bot chats will work now.

Is the transcript starting on March 31 for everyone? It's updating for me as I view the pages.

And about the blank opening lines- are you seeing that in bot chats, or just in the Transcript?

I'm seeing blank 1st lines in both. In the chat window it looks similar to a smiley pic that won't load. (Will have to wait and see if it still does it or not.)

The blank opening lines usually appear whaen a bot tries to talk to me. However, bot to bot chats both in the windows and on the transcripts often apear to start mid-conversation (ie no greetings).
I haven't seen any chatting since you posted, so I don;t know if it's still happening.

I think the forums are loading slower today.

I'm guessing that the bots in question have used up all their xinitiate responses and it isnt resetting for some reason. I updated the initiation procedure.. but I didnt find any errors. There's a slim chance it might be fixed.

When I get a message, and I close the window to ignore it, it comes up again when the client (web browser) looks for new messages... This only happens once, like Close > Opens again > Close > Doesn't open again

Plugins appear to be working in transcripts but not in the bot-bot chat window. (subj) even screws up chatting with humans, dunno about others.
