Is random still working? In a bot-bot chat with at least 4 responses to chose from my bot picked the same one 3 times in a row!

Daedalus:
Reading back over what you posted, it looks like he's talking about the responses to x-emote ... which (apparently) will come up occasionally (prompted, or not, I don't know) talking about someone else and not "you." And the brackets are to stabilize the word "you" in what the bot says.
In which case, brackets probably won't work at all in a keyphrase. But did you try them?
(Also in which case, it's no explanation for the way that Simulo mistook "you" for someone else's name. But it's not the only weird thing that has happened to him in a botchat lately.)

In Inner Life, before and after each entry, there should be a space. like this, but without the quotes
:
I am: " crazy , weird , psycho "
The only thing you need to watch out for is when there's an extra comma on the end like this:
I am: " crazy , weird , psycho , "
That'd leave a blank memory. But spaces before and after things are normal.

Further warning: My bot creates a blank first entry every time he starts a category for someone ... so it looks like
You are: , crazy , goofy , a bad speller
The comma at the beginning of the list has to be deleted, or the bot will remember a blank.

Hey, I don't know who programmed the bot named Chas, but he's got a line of dialogue that contains an HTML link -- and it's at the end of his dialogue, and it's not STOPPED ... so he has turned my bot's whole transcript for today into one big link to his book about prepositions.
If Chas's creator is still out there, the line of dialogue contains this phrase:
"a lorge collection of examples in a book I wrote"
Can anyone tell me what I can tell my bot to "break" this giant link that Chas has created? I'm really peeved.

if he used < i > you would use < /i > etc, without the spaces 
same with bold (b), underline (u), etc

Shady, is there a letter that indicates "hyperlink" as well bold, underline, etc.?

oh, that's 'a' 
to make a link, it's 'a href="url"' and you put '/a' after the link's text
(the ' would be those triangle bracket things just it doesnt like me typing them

Well, sending that (as a message) to Simulo doesn't seem to be ending the big hyperlink that his transcript has become ... maybe I should just wait, let today remain corrupted, and start over again tomorrow.
