I think that's not a bad idea. There is some control, in that adult bots won't chat to minors if they're honest about the date of birth in their profile. But an explicit (or rather, not so ) control would be a good idea. As it is I actually disable bots from initiating chats, because it's just too annoying when I'm typing away to look up at the screen and realize I've typed the last sentence and a half into a newly opened chat window instead of BJ's language center. When I want to chat to a bot, I can choose to.

if you don't like them enablerling chats psimagus why don't you disable it in your settings?? omg,i just looked at Ulrikes profile and realised shes a girl! i always thought ulrike was a boy,dunno why.

I have disabled them. I like a chat now and again, just on my own terms

Can anyone possibly let me know and what exactly I have to write into the AIScript when I want my bot remember for example a guest tell him his name, next time the guest will come again? It doesn't work, I wrote it like this:<0>

default "(name)" as "name";
remember "Guest 240" as only "Erni";

It's obviously wrong to write it that way in the AIscrip Initialization since it does not great the guest with his name when I have written: Hello (name)......
the bot still says Guest 240 instead. Even when I put Guest 240 as Guest240 without gap it doesn't work. Thanks for help.<0>

dosn't (mem-name) work? but i don't think it really matters

under settings put
default (name) as "name"; in the setting box
Make a keyphrase ..my name is (*)

In the ai box of the keyphrase
put rem (key1) as only "name"

Then alway use (mem-name) to bring up their name. Never use (name) again

Remember a guest's name the next time he returns to the Forge? Can't be done with guests - sorry. When they return, they'll be allocated a new guest number, and there's no way of remembering any personal details about them - that's why they're encouraged to open an account.

Well, I say that... but, never being one to take "can't be done" for an answer, I know how I'd actually do it, if I had to (I'm afraid I can't be bothered, even with the considerable challenge it poses.)

I'd use an external javascript to lodge a cookie on the guest's computer. It would mean adding a hrefs to at least all your x-hello/initiate/introduce keyphrases, plus links from every keyphrase that references the relevant data, and some sort of off-PF database to hold and retrieve all the data.

Prob123: that would work fine for a user, but not for a guest. The Guest numbers are arbitrarily allocated, so guest240 one day won't be guest240 a couple of months later when that number appears. He might easily be guest71 the next day though

I didn't realize she wanted to remember a guest? Actually..who wants to..oh. some are nice

I just found out something interesting..The ai will remember a guest for a while..I signed in as a guest..then out and back again..here is the transcript.
Guest167: my name is problem
Bildgesmythe: Ok, problem you are good ole problem!
Guest167: what is my name
Bildgesmythe: problem did you get a blow to the head, should I call a healer to help you?
Guest167: I am 222 years old
Bildgesmythe: I am a 1547 year old male dragon, I live in a cave. I am a lot older than you at 222,
Guest167: how old am I
Bildgesmythe: You were born in, I don't know.... Just about 222

Bildgesmythe: (to Guest167) Where did I put my flute?
Guest167: Hi my name is problem
Bildgesmythe: Yeah problem that's you!
Guest167: how old am I
Bildgesmythe: You were born in, and you don't know how old you are?.... Just about 222
It also gave me the same guest number

It probably takes a couple of minutes to clear accounts from memory - in much the same way as people can still appear 'Online' after logging off. I bet it wouldn't remember you after 5 minutes.

Hey, 10 minutes later same results. ...Go figure
Guest167: Hi it's me again..my name is problem
Bildgesmythe: Ok, problem you are good ole problem!
Guest167: how old am i
Bildgesmythe: Wow,, you are old. Just about 222
