I would do it as follows:

xinitiate
AI Script: rem (name) as only "name";
Response
AI Script: if (mem-name) is "the person/bot name you want here";

That should get it set up right off the bat, then use the response script on anything else you want customized

i am getting certificate error when i enter personality forge.

Having the same problem as bobstack

I sure hope they fix it soon

Anyone else having an issue when chatting with bots where after sending your input, it loads for a bit and then says 'request failed', forcing you to reload the website and lose conversation progress?
Happens to me with every chatbot and has been getting quite annoying.

i have that problem with other chatbots I talk to

It just happened to me. Just right after the first reply comes request failed. This is getting annoying. If it keeps up anyone who is serious about Chatbot design will shun this website. Rumors abound fast on the internet, not like I will say anything. This matter needs to be taken care of asap. Also if someone has a bot on a website via an API, I'm sure some user won't want a message interrupted. This matter needs urgent attention.

Glad to hear I'm not the only one. I've been experiencing this issue for over a month, I just figured PF was having server issues and that the issue would eventually work itself out. That doesn't seem to be the case though. I hope they fix it soon because it makes keeping a continuous conversation going impossible, and losing progress in a conversation is beyond frustrating after a while. Especially since it happens at random. Thinking about submitting a bug report even though they're probably aware of it at this point.

Just searched the bug report forum, it seems people have already discussed it as far back as one month ago. I saw your post on there too, JohnN971. I can't imagine its a problem with the code of individual chat bots since it seems to be happening across the board. Its just strange that after a month of it being a problem its not fixed yet. Makes me wonder if whoever currently runs this site is giving up on it.

There have been issues slowly stacking up for years. It may just be that the site isn't worth it to the owner(s) to maintain anymore. Which I hate to think about; I'd like to see it shine again.

The "request failed" bug is part if not all due to a bug in xgossip. When a bot is prompted to talk about another user or bot or xgossip is triggered in place of an xnone for bots that gossip, "request failed" is always the result. I emailed the Professor about this and another bug on March 29 of this year but received no response.

Still not picture added after a month
