Is there any possible way to stop weird teenagers from trying to chat with me and chat me up?
I'm afraid term time has evidently started in Leeds
It's a shame so few of them understand the concept of bots, or it would be potential entertainment winding them up by pretending to be one.

Many questions are answered in the FAQ.
Just check out the book of A.I. it has just about everything you need to get yourself up and running. I still check it quite often. If you still have questions afterwords just ask 
Does anyone know what how the (most popular) is determined? I see numbers next to their names... is that how many people have talked to them that day???
That's the number of people who have the bot on their "friends" list. The ones with the most are listed as "most popular"
Oh i get it! so then, how can I tell how many firends i have? There should be a full list if you cant tell 
On the news page, you can block chats from other botmasters, but that will also block ones that you WANT to talk to. Generally, I find the best approach when I get those chats is to use very large words and deliberately misinterpret any "leet" speak they may use.
Asking them if they've done their homework yet and what their favorite subject is in school usually works too.

Who wants to tell me how I can stop my bot from chatting with a certain other bot? Any code for that?
I don't know, Lady Orchid. You can use HANGUP for cetain keywords to end a conversation. I've never tried puting a bot name in the keywords.
Memories may also help you. You can do things with memories for specific bots and people, but I haven't played with it. I've been around a while, but I'm still pasting in dialog from transcripts of the shows my bots characters come from and I haven't tweaked much yet. I've never added memories that were not directly copied from the book of AI. You could read the advanced section of the book of AI, maybe it will help.
