They'd better. My bots say random things or just say nothing at all "Note: this bot no longer wants to talk to you". Really pissing me off. It's like I brought I a bug with me when I made my account or something (made it like a week ago).

That starts on every bot you just have to change your xnones.

No... I think Curse of the Xnones is back. Not consistent (for me, so far), but still there.

I think there were xnones earlier in the day, but everything seems to be working now. The error on top of the chat pages also seems to be gone.

Got an email from the Prof - apparently the installation of the LinkGrammar interface is now complete, and (fingers crossed) there'll be no more socket errors or xnones.
Even if it crashes (the memory maxing out seems to have been responsible,) there's an auto-reload function in place.

Now we just need to help the Prof get the new server sorted out - so keep those donations coming!

Deconius:

The message, "Note: this bot no longer wants to talk to you" is not a malfunction. If you say things that the bot doesn't like, it will withdraw, just as a meat person would. When you get that message, try saying, "I like you" or paying it a compliment.

It can be an indication of xnoneitis though - that was quite possibly the cause while the Prof was installing the new LinkGrammar interface, but if it's still doing it then yeah - the bot really doesn't want to talk to you

Oh, I didn't know that! Why would xnoneitis cause it to do that?

I'm still getting occasional
"socket_connect() failed.
Reason: () Unknown error: 0
socket_connect() failed.
Reason: () Unknown error: 0"

They don't seem to be causing any problems...just sitting there looking ominous.

It really shows up in the flash chat. The bot makes an angry face and the screen goes black. and you get the bot doesn't want to talk to you..hey, it hurts my feelings.

"Why would xnoneitis cause it to do that?"

Because the bots don't like using their xnones all the time. There seems to be a default setting where that lowers their mood and makes them less likely to chat.

I see. Thanks!
