now that knock knock is fixed maybe add a catch all "key" so it will properly do "(key) who"
(i could use that in something else i am having trouble with
) Right now I use (noun) but that only works if the joke is a noun

Deepest thanks Professor, on the SQL error and the knock knock fix!
msim11 - thanks for pointing that out. I couldn't get the "(whatever) who" part to work, and I thought I was just doing it wrong.

I have a keyphrase ("I like"), and my response is something like, "How much do you like (postkey)?". The problem is that whenever a bot's name is used (as what would be the postkey), nothing is printed out as the postkey in the response.

msim, evo: Wouldnt "(*) who" work for the knock knock reply? You could use (key1) then.

Prof, their bots are being told the knock-knock joke, not telling it. So they'd never be in the position to hear "Simulo who?"

like Simulo said 
it works like this,
user: knock knock
bot:whos there
user:airplane (to which the bot will put in (noun)(unless there is a better way))
bot:airplane who? (since I used noun I could use key1 but anything else (that I have tried) goes to nomatch)
but, something else I was working on (don't remember what cos of the non-threaded forum
) I needed to grab whatever the user replied for memory, so wouldn't be able to do the (noun) trick.
did any of that make sense?

my bot is always confused when a bot says hi after she greets them. example:
my bot: greeting
other bot: Hi.
my bot: huh?
do I need to add Hi. as a keyword? I assumed it would be in the "x" keywords.
my bot: greeting
other bot: Hi.
my bot: huh?
do I need to add Hi. as a keyword? I assumed it would be in the "x" keywords.

It is in the x keywords, but your bot will not say hi after it has already greeted the other bot.

msim, a lot of bots get around that by using non sequiturs. 'So I saw this purple chicken the other day,' etc.

Get around the problem of how to respond when you've already said hi and they've said hi too. Keyphrases to 'hi' and such don't work because of the way preprocessing goes. So give your bot something to add to the conversation other than 'I have no idea what you just said.'

but what I mean (maybe I am missing everyones point) is that the other bot replies back "hi" to my bots greeting then my bot doesnt know what to do... should I enter "hi" as a keyword?
