although i did have to resort occasionally to some advanced features of the program to preview automated posts before they went live to maintain the feel of a real human i think it's been really successful. i had to throw in a few field test posts of my own to make sure it was reacting correctly, for example if it determines it's being accused of being a robot. also it has a 'friend or foe' system that excludes replies to anyone that consistently uses the words "death panel" without sarcastic quotes around them. quoting a definition of genocide that proves itself wrong was a mistake at first, but i couldn't help but laugh at it. little things like that really give the illusion of human flaws.

i let it post on the gaming forum also to diffuse suspicion, though all it does is quote a gaming themed rss feed and comment with a line out of the preview text. unnecessary i guess, but this is all for an upcoming contest for the special edition of blade runner. can you discover the replicant poster :O i'll keep it running for a while longer so you can pick up some vital clues for the future. try giving it the voigt-kampff test it'll go nuts :>

thanks again

I think you need to adjust the 'friend or foe' levels.

I also found a line of code that is incorrect.

If "punk+music" then "Greenday"

Are you sure that's why? Go over the charts again and check its activity readings.

My guess is its a vulture eating the intestines of fallen prey. I like to believe its a metaphor for some deep meaning philosophical stuff that ultimately boils down to you being Liberace gay.

My guess is its a vulture eating the intestines of fallen prey. .

Its still disturbing and the red eyes give it a supernatural feeling.

Uh oh,

I have a feeling that TheLeader is going to follow me around the forum like Colonel Flagg does mumbling and perpetually repeating "Genocide" constantly.

I'm only following your example.

So wait, was the part where it argued in circles about MMA some sort of bug, or was it working as intended?

Oooooh. I guess he told me. :chatter

:lol

EDIT: And furthermore, I never mumble. In fact, is mumbling even POSSIBLE when it's in written form?

Unless of course you're transcribing a speech by Ozzy Osbourne.
