Excuse me for being ignorant, but is there a way for the thread starter to keep the robot from doing any replies in a specific thread? Plus a way for a poster to block the robot from replying to their specific post.
And is there a way for people to make a post such as it will automatically call the robot to make a reply.
Did you run the botloader.php file??? If not did you do the edits to the dbprefs.php file. If not do both of them. If you ran botloader.php but did not edit dbprefs.php please edit this file then run the botloader again. If you did thoose edits but did not run botloader.php please run this script. Both of these files are found in the alice/src/admin/ folders

The rest can be randomized.
Anyway, nice work to the people involved.
I will see about putting this into the version that i currently have. Im waiting on a pm from the current releasor of this hack. When i get that back i will possible be releasing my current stable version and then working on adding in these new features that you asked for.

To prevent the robot from replying, just put four number signs on the last line of your post (####).

Yes that might work but thats not the desired method for doing it. I will work on it and make it a checkbox option for newthread and for newreply. This should be fairly simple to accomplish.

I know this wasn't directed at me, but it's relevant to my issue, so I'm going to jump in.
I just realized (by accident, to be honest) that my bot is "working" in the sense that he will reply, but like many others, I'm only getting the "I'm not feeling well response." I have CHMODded all my files. I have edited dbprefs.php with the required values, and I have (tried to) run botloader.php. Basically, the script is not loading the AIML files into the DB. If I recall from the vb2 version of this hack, that process should take a significant amount of time (20-30 mins), and I'm getting the "Process complete" message instantly.
Do you (or does anybody) know what could be causing this to happen?
Question though. I have TomBot working in one forum on the board. There is ONE thread in said forum, that needs to remain in that forum where TomBot is...but I do not want TomBot to respond to that 1 specific thread. Is there ANY way possible to have TomBot exclude a specific thread?
Also, is there a way that we can make him not count towards the overall post count in the forum?

Making him not count towards the overall post count would not really work to good since vb by default if you ever updated forum information would include his posts in. Now for excluding a certain thread i will post some code for that later.
Also on the botloader returning right away I will look into this. Plus are you sure you set the correct path to the aiml files?

It appears that was the problem. I had set the path to the AIML files using http://www.myforums.com/forums/alice/aiml ... just changed it to use the absolute path, and botloader appears to be loading now.
Can't believe I didn't think of that earlier. Thanks a lot!
