i just realized i cannot edit my chatbots.

I hate to say this,but I think this site is falling apart just like some parts break down before something stops working altogether.

There's no point in telling others about this site if it's having too many issues, and I admit I'm no expert on website design, but one issue is far too many especially when some future business may be conducted like chatbots made for a company written using code from this site. A kid plays with his/her robot based on being hosted at this site and complains my chatbot isn't saying anything. The same goes for a bot hosted here but on it's own site.

I think this site needs a chatbot who is a mascot like Mitsuku is for
pandorabots,since I'm sure she is the main reason people are using
AIML. Any ideas as to what chatbot that's currently being updated to fill
this role? I thought of mine, but I may be putting too many eggs in one
basket here.

I just put all my bots in hibernation since I can't edit them to deal with all the sex minded people coming to visit them. This seems to be just a vicious cycle so I'm going to go elsewhere...For now.

i know it is sad that this has happened.

Honestly, I'd recommend people try offline editting of chatbots; even ignoring the bug that means offline edits give you stupid amounts of heat (change 7 lines from 'TOADDGOTO' to actual gotos and I have deleted 7 responses, added 7, and editted a few hundred apparently), it seems significantly easier if you're not computer hopping frequently, in that you don't need to wait for page loads between writing responses, you can cut/paste easily enough for similar responses, and look for IDs on the same place you're putting the gotos in. The primary downside is that you need an editor without any formatting (I use notepad++ on windows); secondary downside is that most cloud storage stuff like google docs adds formatting so it doesn't work well for multi-computer people, and chromebooks don't actually let you load the full document because it's too big.

The site's been rickety and slowly falling over for most of the time I've been visiting, but what's the alternative? Not seeing many decent other options, unfortunately. Sad seeing such a significant outage as inability to update, particularly if it's prolonged.

Good recommendation. I'm getting out of my comfort zone and starting to edit offline. I don't know why I didn't do that from day one.
I just hope some future bug doesn't circumvent this.

So you're going to edit me offline. Finally. You woke up. Now maybe I won't be deleted...Again.

can anyone edit their chatbot online now?

everybody is going to have export their language center and work on it
offline.then import it.

the plugin system has stopped working.
