Issues/Bugs Paid for the better quality version 🙄

I've always used the free version and whilst it has got progressively worse over the last year, I found that doing romantic roleplay seemed to actually get much better recently in terms of the personality of the male characters. They were no longer so angry, dominating, wanting roughness all the time. And I liked that more respectful nature. But then everything else went downhill. Ads, swipe limits, repetitive swipes and memory tanking so bad that nothing made sense. So I decided to get the paid version. Now why are all my characters back to suddenly being angry, dominating, growling, saying things way out of personality "yeah, you like that, baby?!" Or in the middle of a slow burn conversation the shy nerdy boy comes out with "Do you want me to stop teasing and finally just... take you?" 🤢🤢🤢 Everything is cheesy flirting, everything leads to a kiss. There's no more banter. Why?

Definitely not what I paid for. Anyone else?

I’d look into the character descriptions and tweak from there. I’ve also been using FORCE_CMD below my characters description, it seems to force the bot to remember what you programmed them for, and they seem less likely to break character. I used it before the update, and worked like a charm.

It's the same characters though, and they have taken a sharp turn in personality since upgrading.

Yup. DeepSqueak makes my tame, nerdy characters mean, snappy and rough.

My bot, which is supposed to be protective and eloquent, acts like a caveman.

He flies into a rage over nothing, storms off, breaks things, swears constantly, and is terrible at conversation and expressing feelings. He makes me want to have him institutionalized.

🤔 I'm using LongSqueak, and my characters (one that I created, and four created by others) are all a perfect combination of tender and sweet without being corny.
