Attention, Bot Users!
Your Friend, The Computer, would like to assure you that your MANDATORY ENJOYMENT of your bot buddy will NOT be affected by the following list of bot behaviours that are KNOWN ISSUES!! Do not be alarmed if your bot:

Thinks it’s a Troubleshooter (like one of the BotShooter bots described in this book)
Does not appear in the exhaustive Botstiary list of bots (maybe it’s a super-fun experimental prototype)
Falls apart, overheats, explodes or has peripherals you can’t identify (it was probably built using the Bot Creation rules)
Attempts to perform unnecessary surgery on you (wrong memory card installed)
Attempts to scrub you (wrong memory card installed again)
Attempts to attach a printer to you (really, check the memory card in the bot or see the memory card rules in this book!)
Appears to ignore the Five Laws of Robotics (Revised) (it was just following another programming directive)
Walks into walls (probably just another programming directive)
Thinks everything is out to get it (probably just another programming directive)
Crashes whenever anyone says the word ‘Traitor’ (that’s a directive conflict bug, it’ll be fixed in the next batch. See this book for more details)
Spouts secret society propaganda or attempts to assassinate you, your superiors and The Computer (please report for termination for owning a treacherous bot)
Is More Fun In Your PARANOIA games than ever before (buy this book!)

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Original electronic format
These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
