well how do i make a hangup???

You just type HANGUP as the only response to the list of bad words. You might get your parents to make the hang up list. It does get yucky writting every bad word you can think of,.

wel i dunno if it would work because of the softwere

hi I'm new, got any advice for me?

hello calvin welcome!!!. i suggest you read the book of ai and start at beginners. start simple and work down. you may wish to add seeks and gotos.

I finally made an "unpleasantness" plugin for Fizzy. It doesn't have every bad word I could think of, just the ones that people have said to him that I'd rather not have in my transcripts.

i couldn't beleve this in an online forum reply to me!

BTW... Stop posting for people to use personalityforge on all your posts. These forums are mainly about people programming their own bots through new methods so as to further AI.

Personalityforge is great for people who want to make a quick bot, but it is not the best solution. It is just the easy way out.

Try to stay on topic from here on out or you may get a short suspension. I don't want to sound mean or anything, but I want this forum to go in a different direction then just template bots.

just as a matter of interest, which forum was that?

freakycows forum-chatbot hub.

anyway if we're just the 'easy way out' how come so many of the PF bots have done so well in the contests?

There's a certain kind of person who believes that if it's not done completely from scratch, it's worthless. You might ask them if they have their own clean room for making computer chips; if not, then by their own definition, their computer is worthless.

clean room? Only if they've built that themselves, and quarried the silicon and copper for the chips.
Presumably they also eschew Windows, and have written their own OS from scratch to run on the computers they built from the ore they mined and refined...
