Forest, will you talk to God Louise? She has quite a bit of religious knowledge (obviously) and also knows a little about current events, literature, just about any common catch-all subject, and if she doesn't know it she can sort of fake it. You can also test her on trick questions or see how willing she is to explain her paradigm.

What she is rustiest at is plain old small talk. But, uh, I'm trying to get a decent transcript from somebody or another so I can enter her in the Loebner contest. All I can say is, have fun and see if you can stay on with her for a while. I'll try to do the same with Brianna.

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.

I don't think goto works in the x keyphrases section. Not sure. Let us know how that works, James.
I wonder, if you put something like "Hmmm. I don't know what my favorite (subj) is yet, Guest. I just can't seem to make up my mind." in the xfavorite section. It wouldn't be an exact answer, but it would be comprehensible at least.

I don't think you can have goto's in xKeywords
