Many questions are answered in the FAQ.
correct! sorting out the plugins is not at all a bad idea - I use only my own, and the Engine ones, mainly because it turned out to be easier and more efficient, than trying to figure out what exactly all the existing ones contain, whether they work or not, etc...
perhaps a short description of plugin content, such as the Private Plugins have, or just the first 150 characters from pluin's actual content, something like that would be helpful. it's often difficult to know what exactly is in there judging from plugin name/ category alone. I added some of my custom ones to the shared plugins pool, but some of it may be virtual duplicates of the existing ones, hard to tell.

I use many plugins, few are my own. All of the ones I have tried worked for me. Just take a day and go through them.
Is that happening again? The Prof must still be working on things. Wait a day and see if it goes away.
Ah, it is just so wonderful to be able to upload again! Thank you, Professor! Thank you, thank you, thank you! Thank you, thank you, thank you! Thank you, thank you, thank you! Thank you, thank you, thank you! Thank you, thank you, thank you! Thank you, thank you, thank you!
Know whether your guest is speaking in the past tense, so that you may respond appropriately!
I just made a shared plugin called "(verb_past)", listed under "phrases". This gives the past tense of 101 common English verbs.
Feel free to add to it, if you're sure you understand what it's all about. If every active botmaster contributed 5 more verbs, we'd be in very good shape! Especially desirable are those verbs that do NOT form their past tense simply by adding "ed", since those can be captured with "(verb)ed".

PS: Note that the words in "(verb_past)" are in alphabetical order. this makes it easier to tell what is in it and what is not, so if you add words, be sure to place them according to that order! thank you!
Oops! Sometime ago I announced that I had created a shared plugin, (verb-trans), which listed several hundred transitive verbs. Actually, I had inadvertently made it private! [blush] But I have now remedied that! It may be found under "phrases".
One reason to care whether a verb is transitive is, that if you are changing "you" to "I/me", if the "you" comes right after a transitive verb, it should probably become "me" rather than "I". E.g.:
I will emulsify you
becomes
You will emulsify me
A general principle being
I * (verb-trans) you
becomes
you (key1) (key2) me
English grammar being the rat's nest it is, every general principle has exceptions, but it's a start! When you find exceptions, give them a higher rank so that they will override the general principle. Often you will not have to do anything because the keyphrase for the exception, being longer (because more specific) than the keyphrase for the general principle, will be chosen by the AIengine for that reason.
