I'll definetley become more actiev if you guys have fixed so I can convert AIML files. Right now, the AIML bot I'm working on atm has about 100 categories it can respond to, which I made in just a day

Sorry, I was away for a week.
Kingdom,
I used to think exactly like yourself. I spent several years working on AIML, and became quite advanced. When I came here I could not figure where to start and became frustrated.
Now, I have abondoned all my AIML bots on Pandorabots and on Metabolt in Second Life. The Forge is much more advanced.
Use - goto - instead of srai. Here we have - seeks - instead of -that- tag. And several levels of memory that far surpass -topic-, -set it-, -set name- etc in the AIML.
It would be nice to have several separate files like in the AIML, perhaps we can petition the Professor for this. But this is a minor issue.
Plugins are also great. Start with (adj-pos), (verb), (noun) etc. This saves so much code writing compared to the AIML.
Gosh, in the AIML there no concept of (prekey) and (postkey) like here. You have to write up every possible sentence. Here you just write the basic concept.
Symbolic reductions are also handled on the Forge better than in AIML, in my opinion. In AIML the files are read in alphabetical order, here we have rankings...

correction - there is concept of (prekey) and (postkey) in AIML - say
* mother
mother *
-star- would be the (prekey), (postkey)
But in the AIML there no concept of emotions - this is what makes the PF shine.
There are no emotions on Verbot AFAIK.

Didn't (prekey) and (postkey) basically become obsolete once general wildcards were introduced?

Hello. I am new here, and I've been wondering if I'll be able to download a chatbot I make. I'd love to know that ahead of time.

The bot can only run off the Forge Engine. You can link your bot to an other site though.

Is there any reliable way to display images?
I tried iframes and the plain old My Site in a test responce, but when I reopen the language center the code is always gone...

Well, the code around "My site" also was filtered out... Are images and external links no longer allowed?

Carlyy23,the AI script is a statement like <?PF statement; ?> that tells your bot when to execute a command or say a certain phrase. For instance, if you wanted to greet a visitor named "Bob" in a certain way,you would use <?PF if (mem-name) is "Bob"; ?> next to the keyphrase. Read the "Book of AI" very carefully.
