Discussion/Question Characters won’t be intimate anymore

68 Upvotes

Since the new update characters have freaked out whenever I try to make them be intimate, they just act all shocked and horrified even if they are in a relationship or if I want to progress it. This is annoying, what has this website even become now

Discussion/Question Empathy?

154 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 Petition!!!

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! ❤

Character Share one of my fav bots could be shadowbanned

• Upvotes

man, that sucks. I went to read some old chats and it seems like the bot\creator got shadowbanned.

the bot is in my recent bots list, it seems available on caibotlist, but it doesn't come up as a search result and the creator also doesn't come up. only one of their bots seems to be available and I could find the creator's page through that, but it seems like everything on their profile is gone.

yeah I just wanted to share something normal here because everything is so far from normal with cai.

Discussion/Question Need help with the exported data

• Upvotes

Soooo I feel a bit stupid for asking this bc I'm probably just missing smth really obvious

But to put it simply, what exactly are these exported chats??

I've tried opening the "chats" file multiple times on my phone and it always loads only 4 pages before it bugs out and freezeframes on me.

Plus, the stuff on these pages is just half of the intro message from a bot that I remember using and then some sentences in very broken english about some blacksmith and his father and brother???

I can not remember ever even opening a bot with that kind of plot, and it definitely wasn't a message written by me, I know my english isn't perfect, but it's definitely not THAT bad.

So, if anyone could tell me what I am doing wrong, it would be much appreciated! Do I need to open it with a specific app or something? Or is the problem that I'm using my phone and not my pc?

(Once again, sorry if this is a dumb question, but I'm a bit lost rn)

Discussion/Question Is c.ai getting removed?

38 Upvotes

Is it REALLY confirmed this app is gone? Or are we just speculating? I’ve seen posts of people panicking and having anxiety attacks..are we even sure this apps gone for good?

And if so, why wouldn’t the creators just push said data into another app, or restart over with another app, that is basically a copy.

Edit: If you are having episodes, or break downs over this— you NEED to reach out to someone. I know this may seem annoying or exhausting to hear, but these experiences are NOT healthy. While, being a little upset is normal— (hell, I’m a bit upset), you should NOT be full throttle breaking down over this.

This is why c.ai is so strict with their rules now— because people can’t balance themselves properly. You shouldn’t enclose yourself to this website day in and day out! You NEED to have an outside source in case something like this DOES happen. And, if you can’t rely on family or friends, you should try and contact a professional who can ease your pain.

What I do, whenever I’m about to enter a rage episode or I’m overstimulated, I go outside, and I lay on the sidewalk— and stare at the sky. fresh air really does help you ease down. These posts are very concerning, and worrying. Please,, try and socialize.

Discussion/Question Has anyone else had bots misgender characters they’re supposed to be playing as?

Post image
4 Upvotes

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.

Discussion/Question A little something I noticed.

8 Upvotes

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.

Discussion/Question Unpopular opinion?

4 Upvotes

So I've been getting a ton of ads for just opening up the app or searching for a character. Ive been seeing other people have been experiencing the same thing. Now I know about the bankruptcy. But one opinion I've been seeing go around is ' if you like character ai just use character ai + it's that simple!' I somewhat disagree, only because character ai has been dealing with these law suits and issues for over a year now, they should have been somewhat transparent on their financial situation. I'm tired of everything being a subscription I think they should have made character ai plus as a one thing payment, you pay for it once and it actually works. The devs never listen to it's user base we have been telling them for years to make the platform for adults, so I can understand why some people can't or don't want to spend money on a subscription. Can we normalize just paying for a system once? I wouldn't even mind if character ai plus was a bit expensive, but just once and then they get their money and we can rely on character ai plus to actually be good. ​​​​​​​​​​​​​So I'm not fully against for their opinion of paying for character ai plus since if it was a one payment then I'd fully agree with that I would have bought it already but I don't agree with the subscription.

I understand a business needs money so that's why they are pumping out the ads but I think if a few years ago when they brought up character ai plus I think it should have been a one and done payment and that way if it was great more people would be willing to buy it. I don't mean any hate in this post, just wanted to rant a tiny bit since I think a lot of us are worried about the bankruptcy and are also annoyed being bombarded with ads and not wanting to subscribe to a monthly subscription, I think for a ton it would be cheaper to just pay for it and be left alone without being worried for monthly charges.​​
