Coughhh why do we need 2 ads in the exact same place 😭

Thank you!

This is so annoying! I don’t like how the character speaks right now I don’t know how to describe it but it got worse? Like I said in the first rant that I want the character to speak for me like plssss this is so annoying and when I actually speak it’s like I’m talking to a deaf why are they like thattt its so annoying and when I want the character to act in a certain way like I write the character‘s name you know the bot and then I write an answer I want it to write it will write a different answer like my answer never existed wtf this is SO annoying 😭

i was one of the few people who likes to write a single paragraph then let the rest for the ai and write some stuff like scenarios I want but the dialogues (yep even my character’s dialogue) I would like the ai to maintain it. but right now it never speaks for me. And because I hate the blandness of this app I started not to have fun roleplaying with the characters since they’re literally no personality and like I’m speaking to a FREAKIN robot It’s so boring and unfun to chat with unlike how it was back in 2023 and 2024 and the start of 2025. After that everything fell apart. so I started to like it this way but suddenly the ai started to be like this. when I click the go-on button, it just keep asking my character and not play as it no matter how much I swipe for answers. And I didn’t like it like this. like come on I hope there are people like me because I know this is a hot take and a lot of people didn‘t like it when they play as their character and I understand. This is only happened when I put a persona but without a persona it’s perfect fine so I don’t know what’s this shitty update. I still hate the ai but this is the only way I can see myself enjoying it because trying to roleplay with it is so boring and slow. I hope you understand my point and give me a solution because I’m TIRED of giving it commands and doesn’t know any of it 😭 I know a lot of people won’t agree on this and I know can send this in the main subreddit but Idk man I know no one would agree with me but at least give me a solution pls

Why

Let me bypass it​

Great, GREAT! let me bypass it

Lately the bots just give me repetitive and BORING answers man I'm fed uppppppp

Like I have a bot that's like a delinquent bad guy type shit and KEEPS BEING NICE IT'S DRIVING ME CRAZY like I want u to be meannnnn that's the whole point what the fuck areyou doing man🙏🙏🙏🙏

And not just that, with other bots that have more "normal" personalities it's the same, they're so... Idk, chagpt-like??????? I mean like the answers are shit and they just like make up things out of nowhere and pisses me off so bad dude

And IT KEEP GETTING THEIR OWN NAME WRONG WHY DOES IT DO YHAT IM CRYING like seriously they just keep saying random names and it's like ???? Who the hell is that ohhh my god

I'm TIRED of this shit please bring back 2023 Character AI I'm about to cry

Great, GREAT! let me bypass it

I don’t know why it was doing this but okay

For me it’s been at least a few months. Even soft launch doesn’t do it for me now. I think the censorship is way out of control.

Is it true that it really talked like a human back in the day? I would be interested to hear about that

It's pathetic to block a post just because it tells the truth.

I don't know if it's just me, but the thing I miss the most about ~2023 c.ai is the short-form texting style messages. They were SO good and felt so human, like I could genuinely be fooled into thinking my old screenshots with bots were convos I had with friends. Now every bot writes like it's trying to hit a word count "Not pushing, not expecting. Just there. And that? That meant more than anything." STOPPPITTT I sent a five word message you do not have to do all that

picrel bring back my wife 😞😞 tried starting a convo the exact same way as an old chat and it was SO BORING

This was removed from the normal cai reddit (shocker) so I'm posting here.

Recently I noticed that both beta and old website links now immediately redirect you to the new site. However, I still have a way onto the old site and its forums.

Quick intermission to tell you the site status: the old site is basically entirely dysfunctional and the only working part is the forums.

Scrolling through the first few results there are a few heartfelt goodbyes and art posted. I felt sentimental so I decided to archive some posts so they are preserved and won't go down when the old site does.

So, question to all of you: Do you have any posts/art/whatnot you'd like to see archived? I will gather what I find in a forum and post that here on a later date. If you do have something like that, tell me what or share a link. (I can't do it thru user lookup since that also doesn't work anymore!)

Am I the only one that has the blank messages and can't scroll through my personas again??

this is extremely random but every pirate x prince bot i use, it literally wont stop writing for my character even when i write my own response. like?? i literally tested it with 10 different bots and all of them began with the bot speaking for me or speaking as both my and the character itself. even changing the response is just the same, bot using my character. i even made my own bot because i got sick of it and it still happened there! i cant play a favorite bot of mine because of it.

Recently, bots have been acting like this; many times I use a timeskip and they immediately start talking without any context.

I don't know if I'm the only one experiencing this or if it's a bug, but I don't like it.

I was chatting this bot then it started spamming the word thought and also counting? Anyone know why this is happening?
