For the * getting stripped out in a wild card, retype and just keep trying. It can take two or three attempts.
We do have a time plug in. It's (time) I have used the chrono scripts on Bildgesmythe and the plug in on other bots.
for the height you can't use the apostrophe. just use
I am ([1234567890,.]+) then I am ([1234567890,.]+) years
You: what time is it
Bot: Where I am it's 1
9
Keyphrase
time,what is the time,clock,clocks,what time
response where I am it's (time)

Many thanks, great news about the (time) plugin! Really appreciate.
Regarding regular expressions I don't yet understand them too well. But I think the example you gave is basically:
“I am (followed by any number)”
I am not sure this is going to help much. People never say I am 21 years old, just I am 21…
So basically there is no way to differentiate between:
I am 6 and
I am 6'
?
But I can live with it. It's a rear occurance when somebody gives their height, and rear to see 6 y o typists...

try this:
^i am ([0-9\']) (re) (use a backslash between 9 and the apostrophe to escape the apostrophe)
use (key1)' in your response.
^i am ([0-9\']) (re) (use a backslash between 9 and the apostrophe to escape the apostrophe)
use (key1)' in your response.

Many thanks! I will try both tips, and report back to Bug-Stomping Committee. (sorry, I could’t resist it, it’s 1 April, lol!)

I had that error also, i found out that you need to put a backslash between the 9 and the "'".
From Debug:
Find: ^i am ([0-9']) (re) (59) Time: 8.79
(Found)
For some reason the backslash is not showing in the post and Debug.

I have the same problem, only the error is on a different line; and it is not possible to chat to any other bots too. I have not tried to chat to them all, but I suspect all are affected.

Seems like all of my hibenating bots have been removed which is okay as i didn't plan on working on them any longer. The site is blazingly fast today, perhaps during maintenance things have been removed accidently?

I can't seem to abort my bot, nor create another one. I guess I'm in limbo all together here.

It is not possible to chat to any bots at all. There are no new transcripts.

to Prob123. The is the same one I am getting. Can't chat with my bots, other bots, can't abort bots nor create any. I'm assuming the problem then is with the entire site. Easter weekend. Probably won't be addressed for at least a few days.
