From: Tod69 Talamasca OR..... SLutBots? Man! They'd be perfect for the Basement Dweller with a fear of intimacy with a real person, even online!  Don't you have to use the trademark symbol with SLutBot?

From: Crunch Underwood it would make sims like africa really burst into life That's what I was thinking; the only downside, of course, is that avatars (bots or not) do take more resources than scripted animals (you pay for that extra level of smoothness, convenience, etc.) and so you couldn't have a whole sim full of such "animals". You might have, oh, I don't know... maybe 10 of them roaming the sim, with scripted animals to make the bulk of the animal population?

From: Qie Niangao Something along the lines of ELIZA, so they'll be kind of Rogerian escorts. There's been an Alice AI in Devils Moon for a long time now, let me see if I can find her if she's still there...yup! http://slurl.com/secondlife/Devils%20Moon/200/25/251

From: Trout Recreant Empty accusation. I have no such thing. I almost got to borrow a slave for a day once, but the slave got wind of the plan and put her foot down. I guess there are things even a slave won't do - like stooping to hanging around with me.
There's no harem. Maybe that's what I could do with my bots - have my own harem, sort of like Tod's idea, only not exactly escorts. They could sit around and do whatever harems do. Look pretty and eat figs. Rub bottles until genies cone out. Hell, I don't know. Figs? Are they fresh figs? I could send my alt to do the the sitting around part. But the figs are mine.

Is there a bot that "can take an IM command from a prim, and then automatically forward it to a group"?
The quoted phrase just appeared in a group chat.

if you smack a bot is that sadism and if the bot likes to be smacked, masochism?

Pilots to man Public transport that goes cross-parcel
If there is no-one on the object, its auto-returned...
Also another use for a bot is a parcel watcher, it sits on your property and notifies you should some little delight decide to drop a pyramid scam on your turf, or even boots the little delight off your land

Why stop at just booting the pyramid watchers? You could replace your banline or security system with a guardbot that hangs out in your house and boots everyone who tries to get inside.
Even better, get a doggie avatar for your bot so you have a guard dogbot!

I modded SLeek last year to add an ALICE engine - I'd need to update this to the latest SLeek if anyone is interested? Matthew

From: Tod69 Talamasca OR..... SLutBots?
According to the Second Life(R) Brand Center, this is not okay! "Do not make up words that contain a Linden Lab brand name."

From: Deira Llanfair Oh - I don't know - maybe we could have a rebranding exercise - Ut Ratings? I don't capitalize the "L" in "slut", so I'm not using a forbidden brand name. SLut ratings are no good, Slut Ratings are just fine. LL can't prevent me from naming them in non-commercial speech.

And my hard drive crashed on my PC at home...hmmm, connection?.....maybe I'm posting from beyond the grave.
COOL! I can scare the hell out of people now! Plus, I get to make pottery with Demi Moore and hang out with Michael Keeton (he was in Beetlejuice, right? Ghosts don't have access to IMDB). I won't have to go to work anymore, I can get into movies and concerts for free. This is going to ROCK!
