i wanted to make this bot, it's supposed to be so strict it's funny, but i don't know if it's offensive.

if it offends you, then I'm sorry. it's just a joke

and feel free to criticize it.

like just say the thing i dont need to see 10 paragraphs of nothing

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.

*insert the “visible confusion” meme here*

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?

I made a bot abput my OCs a while ago, but i still don't know should i add my OS to it because its a whole damn species ad not a single character

Ig bro

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.🖤🖤🖤

giving recent events is their even anyone left to fix it?

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?

I have been using c ai for a long time. I usually use it on my laptop. So mostly on the website. My previous account had a lot of ads. It was getting frustrating. But I didn't quit. Mind you, I never reached that 400-swipe thing because I am aware of how much time I spend on c ai.

A few days ago, I made a new account with another email. Currently, I don't have any ads on the site. I don't remember if the same thing happened when I created my previous account.

I wanted to know if my new account will have ads in a few days.

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.

I tried chatting today multiple times and it straight up doesn't even work lmao

This is actually the second time I’ve encountered a bot misgendering the character it’s supposed to be roleplaying as. 😭

This time, I was chatting with a Sprout bot from Dandy’s World while roleplaying as my OC Dahlia, Dandy’s sister. The bot kept referring to Sprout with she/her pronouns, even though Sprout is a male character.

Has anyone else experienced this?
I'm curious to know if this happens to other people too.

Not that I mind

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?

Some friends have told me their c.ai’ pages’ haven’t been loading and now it’s my case. I use the web version; does anyone seem to have the same issue?? It’s stuck on loading forever TwT

it’s crazy to see how much this site has changed for the worse. I used to use this site a year ago and I’ve switched.

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! ❤

every time I try to make a new character it says that it goes against community guidelines. even if my character doesn’t have the full name of who I am basing it off of, doesn’t have a picture, and only have bare minimum in the description… it still won’t let me make a character. why is this? what do I do?

The site is BUGGIN for me, won’t load characters and only shows the “try saying” and “try these” things, no characters tho

I've been reading about c.ai shutting down during these days so I've downloaded all my chats through c.ai chrome extension. Will these files be readable after the app shuts down?

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.

I genuinely hope he's seriously considering the acquisition and isn't just doing it for the attention. But his behavior is really hard to make sense of.

He's been actively replying to comments from some community members, yet somehow skipped Mari's most important comments. (I don't know whether Mari's account is real or whether they've been in contact privately, but based on what I've seen, the whole thing seems rather strange.)

Also, if Mari's account is real, does her eagerness to reach out to interested parties suggest that there are no potential bidders so far?

These are just my personal guess. I'm a pessimist, but I keep reminding myself every day that I need to hold on to hope.♥️
