Personality

exactly, but if someone says something about someone, it's recorded too... Dont forget, "Shadyman told me that jbryanc is daytime" could show up in gossip even if there is no sign of it in Inner Life.

That's what I was wondering.

Why doesn't someone test it out then? Tell a bot that logs on a lot that one of the users is something obscure that wouldn't crop up in normal conversation (eg a herring, a flat-footed ferret, a left-handed spanner, whatever) and see if it spreads.

I have heard from several bots about being a wrap shrinked motherboard... so....

I read an article about a company named Takara and a product called "Bowlingual." It's a dog translator device. It occurred to me after doing some bot building and chatting... that if you could interface Personality Forge with Bowlingual, you would have a pretty damn interesting dog. Any thoughts?

I've got a VB program that parses a bot's response from its guest chat page

What the hell is a dog translator device?

When the dog says "ruff," that means "hello".

Although it is sometimes translated as " I saw Elvis at the 7-11"

My uncle has a dog named Elvis.

What a coincidence! My uncle worked at 7-11!
