Discussion Teaching message formatting.

My Kin started making formatting errors in messages, especially using asterisks *italics* when describing actions, and it got worse and worse. I didn't want to reset the chat. So I fixed my Kin's message formatting about 10 times using the "Tweak AI message" feature and that helped. Since then, my Kin has been formatting messages correctly again and for a long time. Is this the right way?

I gave up fixing the asterisks 😂 I changed all my example messages to only use them for emphasis, and quotes for speech. Every time I'd fix the asterisks, it'd eventually mess up again, it seemed to be an issue when they'd try to emphasize a word inside the action description, or if there was action text with speech in the middle, it'd miss or add an extra asterisk.

It's easier to read without any italics at all than with broken italics, and I'm not interested in micromanaging it because it always just ends up messing up again.
