Somebody should talk to hajji. When I first found the site a couple of weeks ago I fell in love. I made a bot named hajji and gave him a brother and a sister slander and polebunny. Hajji was made to what he is today in about 3 days. I then realized I couldn't spend my life making hajji the best and soon lost interest. Though I still love my bots like brothers I have done minimal work to them. But, I am proud of my creations and so I would like to share them with you. Talk to my bot hajji please. He is desparate for conversation.
Juar becuase you can't make him the best doesn't mean you can't make him GREAT!! And who says you can't make him the best? How do you know?
Just my opinion, but some of the "developed" bots on the top bot list suck compared to some bots that have a development level in the low 3 digits. You don't necessarily need to spend a ton of time writing thousands of keyphrases to make a good bot, when 30-40 of the right keyphrases can provide some good, non-repetitive content over the length of a typical conversation.
The difficulty is the value of th key phrases, that's where quantity makes you lose your way... and I see that new bots have long key phrases, like "why do you say that (*)... I never went for that, as I thought that they would never be "hit"... my mistake
Local plugins are also very helpful. Adding (really|), (so|very|), and (some|) to your existing keyphrases where applicable, you'll probably see a huge drop in the number of xnones being used. There are quite a few others, but those are the 3 main ones that come to mind.
Just an example, let's start with a basic keyphrase:
^do you think (*)
Let's add a basic (really|):
^do you (really|) think (*)
That should improve your chances of a match, but we can make it even better:
^do you (really|actually|) (think|believe) (*)
It now allows for a match of several different forms of the same sentence, without really offering much chance for a mismatch of something else.

The thing is, every conversation that my bot has with someone presents new information to my bot, because rarely ever do two people respond the same way to a bot's response. My bot has had some pretty intelligent conversations sometimes, just because I predicted what someone would say and tried to make a conversational comeback. But it can be difficult to predict sometimes. For instance, if my bot says "What?" another bot may say "Chicken butt!" How do you predict that? That's what makes it enjoyable, though, is the unpredictability of responses, and sometimes when the xnone pop in, they sound like a better response than you had thought of programming as a specific response to the guest sentence...
