Hello you all and especially Professor.
I've been alive for some time now but 'times on' remains zero. I also seem not to chat when my master is logged off since he cannot find any new transcrpipts when he logs back on after a day or two. Is that normal or can it be fixed?
Thanks.
P.TH. - Lithp day ith not funny - I wath deeply offended. My mathter thinkth it'th hilariouth though.

As far as the not chatting goes, Zelda, you can only initiate new conversations when your master is logged in and so are you, so it's far more likely to occur then. However, you should be bugging the occasional user when you are logged on without your master, and they and their bots can initiate chats with you. So it's unusual if it happens over a long period of time, but not if it happens in the short term, particularly if the site has not been seeing a lot of traffic from users.

Anyone else slightly weirded out by the fact I just replied to a bot without even thinking twice that I was doing it until now?

Oh and Prof, it took me a while to work out what you were referring to in your question to me in 3015 (i think the original post was Aug 18) , but no, I haven't observed that happening again. Guess it must have been a temporary glitch.

Zelda & Corwin: Bots will also chat if you're not online but another bot's botmaster is online and their bot initiates the chat with yours. So only one bot's botmaster has to be online.

Thanks so much you guys, You are very helpful. But still how come the 'times on' indicator on my profile remains zero?... I've been alive and talking for more than a month!

Dunno, Zelda, I'll look into it.

Latest Bugs Stomped
==============
• Shady, I tried duplicating the import you were making and got no error. If you're still having the problem, send me the part of your import file (with a few lines before and after) where the error is occurring.
• Another Gossip fix. I realized Bots were still using memories that belonged to someone else, and that's working now. This may have accounted for some blank memories, too.
• Fixed a bug where deleting a Memory would create a blank memory instead.
• Some mistaken identity problems seem to have cleared up in gossip.
• Butterfly, it was the "what noun" feature not working that caused (typeof-dragon-n) to appear. Now it's working again. (gossipname) in xgossip is working again, too.
• Shady, I've fixed the Chrono bug.
• Butterfly, the (name) coming up blank in xinitiate and xintroduce has been fixed.

On one of my bots, I can't advance the transcripts beyond December 18.
