haggis smoothies and tarantula legs rock on hehe. Maybe I'll have the guts to try it sometime.

But what can I say I'm just a regular beer guy

I'll have some otter's blood, if it's handy.

I take it this place doesn't have any souls handy does it? Hmmm, guess I'll just have to help myself...

People like this make me question humanity really. I can only wonder what these people are like in real life when not hiding behind a screenname...

I think some of them just say those things to be provocative trying get some sort of emotional response that they believe is genuine rather than programmed... also, a lot of people think of online conversation as something anonymous and distant, with no real consequences. Go into any public chatroom and you'll see similar stuff. It's a way for them to get it out of their systems, and I suspect a lot of guests don't realize that our bots' conversations are logged.

What I find most disturbing is how much of the smut talk comes from registered users of the site- people who actually join the Forge and come on here regularly for the sole purpose of having (or attempting to have) cybersex with bots. Spending several hours a week at this, and since they are site members I assume they know someone is reading that stuff. These are the people who I'd be creeped out to meet in real life.

No kidding. Alot, I've also come to find, don't realise that the names listed in the 'chat' list are humans. I have had conversations with people and out of nowhere they will say something I know was meant for a bot. I've also had conversations with people in which I thought they were a bot due to their lack of intellegent responces.

Its pretty sad really....

Bot abuse - sexual or otherwise - is fascinating in a warped sort of way. I wonder how many millions of poor Sims have been tortured or left to starve in doorless rooms?

There's some interesting stuff on bot abuse in general here:

That's a very interesting site - I do find it strange/interesting/disturbing sometimes seeing the way people interact with bots. There are a lot of pent-up negative emotions in a lot of people - I sometimes wonder if they don't perhaps exceed the un-pent-up, and what will happen when computers can really answer back in their own words. We may be sitting on a volcano...

Inasmuch as it follows from observing that bots are abused, that bots have (or at some time will have, if only once sentient,) rights to protection against such abuse, you might also like MickMcA's http://www.dancingbadger.com/poser/prights.htm
(Mick doesn't seem to have been around for a month or so - anyone know if he's alright? Maybe the voodoo coding pissed him off once too often!)
