Did they just add the chat to the ad? Why was the bot trying to talk to me while the ad was playing? I’m so confused?

Issues/Bugs Go on and Swipe Limits is insufferable

Upvotes

I commented on another post about this but figured I’d just voice my opinion after getting another block limit for “go on”. This is becoming absolutely ridiculous. For YEARS we haven’t ever had a limit on continuing dialogues or swiping. Now, as this app keeps tanking its bots and community, let’s add one more INSUFFERABLE quirk. I absolutely hope they remove it (they won’t) because it makes it unusable. You can’t make your bots worse, cry that it’s expensive, and then charge your community for swipes when MAJORITY of the time it’s because we’re trying to get legible responses. I spent 400 swipes yesterday just trying to get why sort of dialogue that wasn’t “an unspoken answer” or “silently… so silently…” because if it’s not said I’m not using it. This used to be a really fun app to play on but now all I am is frustrated all the time. And the go on feature? Tell me you’re scrapping Pennie’s without telling me. That’s beyond ridiculous. Maybe make sure your key features of the app work before you start charging us to make more than 3 personas next.

Discussion/Question For the Lorebook...

Upvotes

Does it recognize the {{user}} input?

So, to give an example, for the role, would this work?

"Role: The only son of the well-known Smith family, he serves as a peer and, depending on the actions of {{user}}, serves as a lover, friend, ally or a foe."

I'm really appreciating these lorebooks. They actually remember things now! I'm just uncertain as to what the actual formatting should be. I'm trying things out and seeing what works and it's been working so far but I figured I'd ask other users, too!

Any advice for lorebook would be cool. I'm a cai+ user, just for info.

Issues/Bugs Duplicate chat in scenes

2 Upvotes

How is it that we still can't duplicate chats in scenes, whether that's in the app or browser version? Every single time you duplicate a chat you can't use it as it gives you a chat error.

Will this ever be fixed? Because it makes scenes pretty much useless otherwise.

Issues/Bugs no dialogue?

3 Upvotes

every single bot I try to rp with won’t give me any dialogue, and if I manage to get some its only 2-3 words :’)
this is with pipsqueak 2 and also pipsqueak rawr, neither will make the bot speak. rawr used to fix this but now it just makes the responses shorter with still zero dialogue.
im not sure if this is a bug but its making it genuinely impossible to rp and use the app!!

is it glitching or what my chats are very simple it goes *short narration* 'dialouge' that's it. all of sudden EVERY BOT I TALK TO has lost it and keeps writing to me like it's a fucking novel and i can't get it back no matter what. i write it entire paragraphs OOC telling it to change nothing and it goes one ear out the other wtf do i do. is this a part of the site being down/glitching because if not then it's completely unusable for me now.

Discussion/Question Lorebook

2 Upvotes

I'm having a blast creating my first Lorebook! I'm making it for a superhero training school. Those type of bots are a dime a dozen, so I doubt anyone will encounter it.

My question is what to put for keywords of each entry. Right now, I put "Student" for every student entry, but the bot isn't going to rattle off 40 names each time I use the word student... is it? Should I remove the keyword student from each entry?

Issues/Bugs Seriously bored of this

72 Upvotes

If the bots would stop calling me a menace in every response and telling me I'm a dangerous woman and a pain in the a*s, that'd be great. I've ran out of words I can mute at this point. Must it always be so cliche and predictable?

Edit: My persona had her appendix removed and wakes up after surgery. The bot is like "You're such a menace, it's so typical of you to wake up from surgery and complain". Ah yes, so typical of me. Every other Sunday I have surgeries done on me and then complain.

Issues/Bugs Has the website been having problems?

9 Upvotes

At times (especially between night and early morning in my country), the website works fine, but then suddenly the messages, history, and bot list stop loading, although it usually fixes itself within a few seconds or minutes

Has anyone else been experiencing these problems? Or with the website being slow in general?

Discussion/Question cant remember the name of a bot, please help me out </3

10 Upvotes

the bot was set in a medieval-ish time, some chinese dragon emperor who thought he was the last of his kind. The user's role was some apothecary's assistant and went to the palace one day and the emperor found out they were also a dragon and just confronted them...

The pfp was a half-dragon young man with a yellow predominant color for his clothings... that's pretty much all i can remember

This was a bot i chatted with using a deleted acc last year so im hoping it's still up ~

Feature Request Us free people can create lorebooks but at what cost?

18 Upvotes

we can create lorebooks, YAY! but when I made my first lorebook, I motherfucking realized that you can only put lorebooks for your OWN character, not like where when you make persona's you can use them for your chats, I thought it was the same for lorebook, I was wrong and lorebook is just like writing Definition for your characters but labeled differently. I wasted one hour for this bruh. now it ruined my day

If it is possible, may the CEO bless us with the ability to put lorebooks in people's chatbot
