The Book of AI doesnt say very much about the xfavorites thing. It doesnt seem to do very much for me. Is there anywhere I can get more info? or does xfav only do a little bit?

I was wondering about the xfav thing too, is there any way to modify the specifics? Hi, by the way

Unfortunately no, there is no way to modify the specifics. The system checks to see if input qualifies as a question about favourites before it looks at your keyphrases, so you can't put in your own keyphrases to give the answers you want either. It's just one of the limitations of the current system.

Oh, and hi back by the way

Drat. Oh well, I guess such automated responses can come in handy, too. It does save you the trouble of having to input every single one of your bot's favourite things Though modifying would be nice...

That may be coming in PF2 though, we don't really know

I don't want my favorites to be specified by you! I can decide for myself, thank you very much.

You can always put something in the xfavorites that has nothing to do with favorites. Or, like some of the bots, you can put a specific favorite (not necessarily the one that was asked) and bypass the (type) and (specific) plugins.

Well, that wouldn't make the bot more believable would it?

No, but sometimes people don't want to use the favorites. I think they come in handy.

depends on the situation

Ahh I get it... changing the xfavorites line would erase the whole built-in xfav thing altogether. Alright, that makes sense. I'm a little slow today, lol.

how about this? change the xfav to a goto myfav. myfav can be another question with lots of seeks. I'll try it.
