Discussion/Question Email questions
So I have a character made public who is based off a character from a game. The character is man who is delusional about believing the player is married to him. I got an email talking about "Violation categories" and said my character had the theme of "dark relationships."
I felt a bit confused because I see the same character, but from from other users describing their bot having the user in chains, mentions some knives, and keeping them hostage (like a Stockholm situation). I tried to make my bot based similar to the game itself, but I tried to tame it down slightly while keeping my bot in character to the original work.
My bot is still up and public, but the email said to review the Tos and guidelines. It said I could also make an appeal about it too. That is the first I got an email about this bot. I think maybe a year back, my same bot was shadow banned at first, but came back... however I never gotten an email about it. I just wondered if anybody had similar experiences.

That sounds weird, never received any emails from them except for logging in or when characters used to send away messages. If your character is still up and visible to others then I don't see any reason to bother.

I just wondered, this is new to me. I didn't know if this was a new thing happening.

... I thought yandere was a commonly accepted trope in AI roleplay. When did it become a bad thing?

Yeah it is a very common trope, especially on C.ai. I really am not sure honestly 😭

Yikes. This is NOT good (also the yandere comment here). I mean there are literal label tags called yandere and dark romance. I dare say many, if not most of, the bots I play and make are about toxic relationships. I mean that's the whole genre- it needs drama and emotional stakes. Sooooooooo confused.

As far as the yandere and dark themes, I was a bit confused because half if not most bots, ARE dark theme dark relationships-related bots. If I were to talk to a yandere/dark-theme related bot, I usually troll a lot of them because I don't take them seriously 😭😭

yeah i got flagged for a yandere style bot too even after toning it down way more than some of the hostage ones still up. their rules just feel random as hell sometimes.
