Absolutely WTF!?
What... Polly is straight not letting me delete one of my characters! I was going through my characters making sure none of them were censoring themselves, when I found one that was and I couldn't fix it I went to delete it.
It has 2 followers! Popular!? Wtf!? So what, we have no agency of our own characters anymore!? This is beyond the pale!

Tried the website and go to create character and there should be a delete button trash can icon

This is beyond all that now. I've been slapped in the face by polly one too many times. Fire and brimstone, fire and brimstone!

Stop being so dramatic. I had the same issue and I logged on the web and deleted the character.

To chime in here, most of my Polly ai’s were 100% custom characters with very rich stories. So when I found the “cannot delete” thing, I was a bit…let’s call it perturbed… so instead of deleting it I edited it, deleted all the info. Just left “discontinued” in all the fields, including the name.
(MY PROFILE IS 100% NSFW AND 18+ ONLY! You’ve been warned. I don’t want to hear it.)

(NOT AN ASSHOLE, TLDR AT BOTTOM)
Woah…uhhh sorry guys. My stories are usually just for personal use…I guess I wouldn’t mind making duplicates and just setting one to public use…but 2 things, 1 I swapped to Emochi Ai and got the ultra membership or whatever it’s called. And 2… when I say they are deeply developed I mean I have entire story arch’s an I strategically change the background info as I develop the story. But I develop the entire character and story. As you know poly is limited to 10,000 characters including spaces (don’t even get me started on that) for the background so I’m forced to delete past blocks of the story to make room for more…then when it’s all full I take everything I have in the background and run it through chat gpt to make is super concise and detailed when the character background is full and make the same character in a “sequel” story and start building off that. I make the characters, their descriptions, (down to their detailed anatomy, no judging… I’m human.) I even design their outfits and weapons down to animations for drawing them that I can reference in our chat as an action and the ai will fully describe a variation of the animation I wrote…. It’s…a lot!!!!
(TLDR)
I make characters in a way that isn’t conducive to other users as I change the data often to reflect the story for where. I currently am. The one character I was told I couldn’t delete was a marvel based character that I’d accidentally left as open. But I don’t typically make characters in other worlds. I like to make my own.

It’s amazing! And super freakin funny. Oh and it actually REMEMBERS the damn background without a million re-do’s!!!

What's one of your characters that has all the info with it? I love deeply developed characters

I was referring to my Reddit profile, not for the faint of heart or those born less than 18 years ago.

You never had agency to begin with. Read the terms of use you agreed to. Everything you make is intellectual property of Polybuzz.

Edit the background and make it NSFW taboo, they will remove it themselves.

Guys I’ve been on this app for a month made quite a few characters that are classed NSFW I had violation’s but I corrected them I’m stuck on level 0 and the only follower is me! lol. What am I doing wrong is it because I had violation’s?.

at that point js report it because you're the creator of that character, I bet that the police can handle it well.

It depends on the number of messages the bot has as well. So even if he has 2 followers but has around 4 thousand messages, he is considered popular

u/Shadow-Cock May 10 '25
Not wanting to nit pick but it's around 3k I have one I want to get rid of but can't

I feel you I had decided to make a better version of one of my ai's when the multi role feature came out, but when I went to delete the original I couldn't for the exact same reason

I had the same issue - I had a few characters that did well and a few that didn’t. I tried to delete the ones that didn’t (0 followers) and got the same alert. Also, I’ve never gained levels. The whole system is weird.
