Keichobot, you are missing too much. Scrapbox diary unbearable Social Triggers Public/Private image Keichobot keyword extraction Output by applying to a template of question text Estimates “which are the most important keywords” rather than randomly, and selects the highest scoring ones Prioritize basic 2 questions, aim to develop symbols first at a basic 5-question pace, and ask questions of value when you determine that they are sufficiently developed. Unleash the relationship question after asking the value question.
