If I didnt already suggest it or ask about it, is there one straight text file we can go in to to set all the basics of the bot,like it's name, fav color, gender, fav food., etc, without having to edit tables in the database. Like just an aiml file we could later and upload

hmmm it looks like hosting companies doesn't like this mod... they are disabling filegetcontents!!! :mad:

Exactly. There is ZERO support and ZERO updates. And add to that , it does NOT work properly as it has NO memory.

This is the reply I keep getting.

I was not able to connect to my database. Please try again later.

If I run the test, it responds, and it responds in the forum, but only with this message.

What gives?

Nevermind. I uninstalled this shit-ass mod. Don't waste your time. It doesn't work worth a crap.

I think if your post sis too long it gives this answer. If you ask it one short question, like "How are you?" or "What is your name?" it will respond. (should - lol )

Unofficial Uninstallation Instructions: (first make a backup of your database!)

1. Uninstall the product in Product Manager (won't do much since no uninstall instructions are in the xml file, but still recommended)

2. Drop these tables from your database (for example using PhpMyAdmin):

• bot
• bots
• conversationlog
• dstore
• gmcache
• gossip
• patterns
• templates
• thatindex
• thatstack

3. Delete the "alice" folder from your forum root directory and the "ewt_talkerbot.php" file from your forum root directory.

4. Delete the user you created for the bot. You can also delete the bot's posts if you want to.

I have tried this on my own forum after making a backup and everything still works fine.

Great post OS Master, i wish vbulletin.org would lock this thread so other's will stop trying to use it. It doesn't learn and it take's alot of bandwidth from your server. This is just my .02 on closing this dead modification.

Those that insist on trying to use this mod, please follow OS Master's step's when you go to uninstall it from your site.

I guess Tim ditched the project..
