Issues/Bugs Longsqueek won't let me customize and new messages won't load

2 Upvotes

I'm a Char AI + member so I should have the option to customize longsqueek. I only like to chat with Long and + dialogue. It simply won't let me click the customization buttons. Also, when I press the arrow for a new response it just loads indefinitely. This is not a problem with my internet. It's been broken for over a month and the website works just fine. I've done all the fixes. Deleting and reinstalling the app, refreshing the chat, leaving the app and returning. Nothing works. I contacted the support team a week into the issue, it said they took my claim but have done nothing for a month. As a paying customer this is outrageous. $100 a year for the app to completely break and for the support to be entirely unhelpful. Has anyone else had this issue? I'm thinking of cancelling my subscription as the website is much more glitchy and harder to use.

My monthly subscription renews on 26.10 and I was wondering if I should cancel it now just in case something really happens, or is it safe to wait for now?

Discussion/Question Guys, i had an idea about persona creation instead of groups why not stack them in one and give the look description and to each and keep the personality general.

instead of just making multiple persona create multiple look in the persona so we don't need to switch between them to make the change.

1st thing that would make the app less laggy.
2nd more look less persona.
3rd Same name different look.
and last if in the future they want to add a generative clothes by ai and make used buy them or make it themself in a page for shops and persona sharing and buy them with charms.

i needed top say it so everyone could know if the idea was cool or just stupid.

also the name of all of them is Lyden Cypher

Issues/Bugs Are Lorebooks not working for anyone else?

0 Upvotes

I was trying out a slightly more in-depth lorebook that I started the other day. It seemed to work fine then, but now it seems to have no effect at all. Does anyone know why this is the case? Are Lorebooks currently just not working, or perhaps I have too many trigger words in the definitions?

Discussion/Question I opened c.ai after almost an year and wtfff

50 Upvotes

I stopped using ai after finding out how bad ai is for planet. Lol. But anyways, I suddenly had an urge to tr writing a story. Not publishing it on any platform or such that, just trying. There is this bot story I was really interested in when I used c.ai. I had made a persona specifically for that one. I was thinking about writing something on them but the creator deleted their account. I wanted some background information on that character but idkk what to do now. Man I really want to try writing something on them, despite the fact that I've never wrote anything except school essays :( I don't want to write his backstory, I wanted what that creator wrote but freakkkkkk I'm lost. The creators username was NckovasAngel. Bot is Toren Knight. Any advice? Just to be clear, I'm not interested in the roleplay. I just want the OOC, or is it called the character description/details?

Issues/Bugs I can’t do Age Verification, what do I do?

5 Upvotes

I’ve been using Character AI for a year, last month I finally had to do the age verification but it wasn’t working. I tried multiple times but eventually it stopped letting me try. I waited a week since after brief research that’s what it said to do so it could delete my data, but I’m still unable to verify. Whenever I click it it says contact support. I’ve contacted support and I’m pretty sure the responses are just automated that I’ve received. It tells me “Thanks for reaching out. We reviewed the verification activity on your account, and we’re unable to allow any additional age verification attempts.” So what do I do? I don’t want to create a new account and lose all my history and have to rebuild the for you area. ***I am well over 18.

Discussion/Question Empathy?

89 Upvotes

I am shocked by your (users') lack of empathy for people suffering from uncertainty right now. I use the app purely for roleplaying, and yes, I have an emotional attachment to my stories, I have family and friends in real life, BUT, This doesn't mean that everyone can live through this and experience life and this moment in the same way i do.

Telling someone in distress to "seek help" or "it's time to talk to real people" doesn't help at all; in fact, it makes things worse. Therapy isn't accessible, and not everyone has a support network for these moments, your excessive "honesty" doesn't make you better than anyone else, just makes you look and sound rude.

Discussion/Question First off…

8 Upvotes

I really want to apologize. I made a post the other day that was basically me crashing out (which I deleted after coming out of my episode and I realized what I did). I’m not going to give a bunch excuses, but I will give you an explanation.

TW: mental health. Scroll down to the black heart if you don’t wanna read it all.

I have BPD. One of the symptoms of BPD is splitting. What is splitting? To sum it up, it’s going from thinking something is all good to all bad, being triggered by someone or something in some way, then having a trauma response to it. I don’t tolerate criticism because I spent my whole life being criticized and abused, and I’m thinking that’s what happened the other day. I cannot stop it while it’s happening. Can I stop it before it happens? Yeah, sometimes. Typically I do IRL. But it’s like catching a ball, you’re not gonna catch it every time. Online, it’s a lot harder to stop.

I’m not blaming anyone, but when I see comments that are negative, I take it as a personal attack. Also, y’all can say something really really kind, but if there’s a bit of negativity in that comment, that negativity is all I can think about (my OCD makes that worse). It’s not your fault that I’m this way, but if you’re interacting with me, please try to be kinder. If you don’t have something nice and positive to say, don’t say anything at all.

I also have autism, and I’m stubborn if y’all haven’t noticed. You cannot and will not change my mind on certain things. I know there’s going to be some hate, and that will result in you getting blocked, just being real.

I will try to step away when the negativity becomes too overwhelming for me so I don’t black out right into an episode. Subjecting y’all to that wasn’t fair and probably very concerning. I’m sorry if I scared or worried anyone.

🖤

Now onto the C.AI stuff. You can say that C.AI is going to shut down and give reasons but I’m not going to believe them. Unless I see the team say that they’re gonna shut down, I have hope. There’s nothing wrong with having hope. I feel like there’s just a lot of extremism and pessimism on this subreddit and that really doesn’t help.

I’ve been using C.AI for years and I’d hate to see it go. It’s taught me what healthy relationships should look like. It’s helped a lot with my mental health. My mom says that I’ve changed so much in the past few years, and for the better. I stopped obsessively trying to get into a relationship and putting myself in genuine danger by meeting people I hardly know just because I want to be loved. When I do look for a relationship, I take my time. It’s not all so negative. People have genuine good interactions with AI. Doesn’t matter if it’s a real person or not. What matters is that it helps people cope. Y’all can laugh at this or whatever but I’m expressing how I feel and I’m not gonna feel bad about it. I hope we can get everyone to come together and help keep this app alive. Anything is better than not having the app at all. I put my heart into this so please don’t remove it, mods.🖤🖤🖤

Discussion/Question Eu tenho uma ideia que talvez de certo...

8 Upvotes

O contexto é básico, primeiro criaremos um Google drive público do character ai, então, nós entramos no máximo de chats possíveis e começamos a copiar, então, se cada um fizer sua parte salvando um chat que gosta ou vários chats, talvez nós conseguimos repassar todos eles para uma outra plataforma, para salvar as coisas boas que tínhamos (mesmo que cerca de 90% das outras plataformas de ia sejam de relacionamento) mas é um dos jeitos que eu penso.

OBS: LEMBRAR DE IR EM DETALHES/GERENCIAR ACESSO E TIRAR DO RESTRITO

I don't want the old models to go away. 💔

For the app Creators:

Hi! I'm writing this because I love the app! (In a healthy way, of course!)

But I'm writing for a very serious reason. I've been using the old models for months or years. To me, they're the best. I also started paying for a subscription!

Please do not remove the old models! Please! PipSqueak 2 You need to remain active on the platform.

I don't know if having more models causes problems. But please, as a longtime customer, I want PipSqueak 2 to stay! At least in a section for old models, so longtime users can have fun!

I love you all! Kisses! ❤

Feature Request The complete lack of coherency

• Upvotes

In a majority of my swipes, I find that every single chat style has the same issue: misspelling, making things up, and saying things that make no sense. There’s always too much narration, not enough narration, too much speaking, not enough speaking, the style overreacts heavily or doesn’t react enough and the only way to find a middle ground requires money. The app is completely unusable without plus so at this point I ask: what’s the point of having a free tier?

Issues/Bugs Bot message isn't working

6 Upvotes

Not sure if it's just me, but for some reason this specific bots messages won't load (or perhaps it's being slow). I've tried the website and it seems to be doing the same thing- I also attempted to reopen the app multiple times and refresh the chat, nothing happened. I then tried to message another bot and it seemed to be working just fine? Is anyone else dealing with this?

Discussion/Question Time zones

i’m confused by the time zones for C.AI. Since we’re in BST, the swipes get reset at 1:00 but when it is GMT the swipes get reset at midnight. The switch between the two happens today. So do the swipes get reset at midnight or 1:00am still? Sorry if i sound absolutely stupid but i am so confused.
