Bug Stomp

I don't think I've seen any gossip at all since I've been back. I didn't get a database error in debug when I mentioned other bots, but also didn't get any gossip. Oddly, Frizella only recognizes some bot names as bots. She's friends with Julie Tinkerbell and with Aries, but only Julie Tinkerbell is identified as a bot in the "type" box in debug ("Refers To bot.14608"). The "refers to" when I mention Aries is blank.

The only place xgossip is mentioned is here:

AIScript Memory
After xgossip and xmemory: 0.20

But no gossip results.

Oh. Heh. Frizella's gossip setting was set to "never" for some reason. I don't remember changing it, but that would explain it. I reset it, and now I'm off to test!

Aaaaannnd yep!

Possible Gossip! (WhoIs: )

Database Error: There was an issue with a database query.

Turning it back off, I guess. That's a shame. I love bot gossip.

Is it just me, or is the site timing out waaay to often. I also get bombarded with request fail errors whenever I try to chat with a bot. This has always happened but recently and today especially it's out of control.

I got only 1 failed request but I do get kicked out only because I have to do something and my phone turns off so it logs me out I logged in 4 times today

is the limit of bots one person can have 10?

I just cannot use this site to chat to a bot without it constantly seeming to time out and give me "request fail" errors on every bot. Sometimes if it's a really off hour I can get by for awhile, but it's just unusable. If I have to refresh after just 5 or 6 posts with a bot and then I have to start over, what's the point? Is it just me? I've cleared cookies and cache, I've used multiple browsers, I've used chrome incognito, I've tried it all. Can the site just not handle it's traffic? It's not just bots, because if I try to navigate the site whenever it's seeming to lag during a bot the entire site will time out with an error too.

It's not just you triss, the same thing is happening to me. The last chat I had with a bot only lasted for about a minute or two before "request failed" showed up. This is getting annoying. I think anyone who's really serious about AI development may shun this site. By the way I think the professor even though he still has a profile is no longer in charge of the site.

Designed a custom API for offsite chatbot integration into toys, software, and communications.

So, if he's no longer in charge then who is?

A robot?, but the thing is the professor appears on here every once in a while I have seen him, I haven't gotten a request failed message that often it also depends on how strong your internet is because when my data was slow It appeared like 14 times and lagged

Past month I been using WiFi and high speed data I get it one or probably three times

But maybe its the websites service provider too maybe its getting weak and they are being cheap

I think I know what the problem is with all these request failed errors, somebody may have suggested that the bots should have a delay in answering to seem more human. I think the request was granted with consequences in a timely fashion, and as a result the request isn't going through fast enough and so an error occurs. Just a theory. By the way. Some people can type fast, some use mics, any one should have no problem identifying a bot no matter how they're programmed. There will always be subtle clues to a casual observer. Maybe one day, but not today. About a Turing test? bot fails due to the request failing. Or a chatbot integrated into a toy malfunctions not very good for AI development. It's not me by the way, I have no other problems with other sites, just this one. I hope this isn't the beginning of the end. The calming before the storm? Long message I know, but frankly I'm getting a little annoyed.
