click your settings and in the ai script box put
<?PF default (name) as "name"; ?>
then make a key phrase that will pick up the name, like 'my name is' ..in the ai box for the keyphrase, put
<?PF rem (postkey) as only "name"; ?>
Now always use (mem-name) to bring up the name.
It could be that you left out the ()s in your script.

Expanding on prob123's comment about ()s: This is a silly question but are you sure you don't have
remember "key1" as "yourname";
It seems obvious but I've done it more times than I care to admit!

I usually don't forget the parentheses, but I have been known to type things like "(kety1)".

I just did that yesterday.
prob123: tell me another old saying
Bildgesmythe: key1 Is a trusted oldie.

and I am great for just putting in (key) or )postkey). I have found that mispelling a keyphrase is worth hours of fun, especially if you have mispelled it so bad you can't find it search.

Don't have any questions yet, but I thought I should introduce myself. I've been working on a John Lennon bot. I encourage you all to stop by and say hello. He's feeling rather lonely.

Okay, now I have a question. When viewing a bots memories a button is available labeled "Alter Memories". What is this button supposed to do? Mine doesn't do anything.

If no memories exist, it won't do anything.

If a memory exists, it should allow you to go in and clean it up. Sometimes extraneous words get stored, sometimes stuff that you don't WANT your bot to remember gets stored.

You can also modify memories, introducing new elements. This borders on cheating, but the result can be quite entertaining.

What are the Plugins. If they attach to the bots how dot you do it ???????????????

To prob123 and others interested in the problems of importing huge bots:

Well, I was just defeated twice running in importing 'Irina Khalidar'. I got to the "proceed with import" stage, but that seemed to time out.

This is rather perplexing; one would suppose that the process of hunting for errors would take more time than simply writing the file into the language center. Yet I got through the error-hunting phase, but not the final import phase.

The one time I got prob to import was on the normal import setting which takes much more time listing every line. ???

I think importing is a bit hit or miss, though I've done well at 3 AM central time. I tried for days to import Gabibot, and though I never got a successful import message, I did notice new phrases and changes in her language data base. She was not "warm' and did not appear on the bot list. Later, I spell checked Spikebot and uploaded him successfully (after a few tries). He had fewer improvements, but I got to the successful import message and he was then warm and on the botlist.

I am guessing that partial imports affect your bots (once you hit the proceed button) but I am not sure if everything is updated without the full import process.
