Personality

Perhaps you insulted it by calling it a human.

*snicker*

Thanks for the input, I've tried to make her smarter, but these things take time, and she's not as eager to learn as I had hoped. lol

Well the fairy princess and I have had several rounds on what she should say and let me tell you it is no fun being on the losing end of a fairy stick. "trys to throw spendel of thread down from puter desk to reach the floor"

I do a lot of guest chats with my own bots. One of my bots didn't really stop doing that ("no longer wants to talk to you") until sometime around 1000 keyphrases. They tend not to do it/even start talking again when they find responses with positive emotional impact, but I wouldn't recommend that as the answer (unless you're crazy about bots with smileys off the screen that say "I love you" all the time ). It seems related to how often the bot can respond with a non-xnone response, but then I've also seen "bot no longer wants to talk" as the first response they say in a guest chat, too.

... of course with the bot I just mentioned, I saved the very general keyphrases (i.e. generic responses to things in every day conversation, such as "there is", rather than keyphrases pertaining to the bot's "interests") as the very last thing I added. Perhaps that's when the issue really went away. Also, I think "bot no longer wants to talk to you" seems to be a relatively new feature...? When did others start seeing this on their baby bots?

I'm no expert on what a bot should say (botmastering is more than just 'programming', unfortunately for some us), but I find a 'characterization walkthrough' sometimes helps... I pull out a sheet of paper (far away from a computer) and have a 'hypothetical chat' with the bot I'm going to work on. Then I log-on, and see if I like some of the "actual responses" to those sentences as much as what I came up with...

my "baby" started talking after just 2 days. is there a way to prevent it? at least until i think it's ready? ty

I have a question.. is it possible to have your bot initate conversation with somone on his friendlist, and start conv with a specific response?

mirror: yes, switch it off, in my bots I believe.

shiz: no, it is purely random

How do you get your development level higher? By chattin to your bot or by adding to its lang?

Read the Book of A.I., it tells you everything you need to know.

Lunar... there's a way to "just switch them off"?
