[waxen rampart]

yo it actually worked, i switched to roar and finally got a normal reply. you're the goat

[timber canopy]

I never used it at all tbh, I always love roar

[hot ridge]

Roar is the best imo

[compact tartan]

roar and softlaunch been my favorite

[timber canopy]

Anytime!

[fathom kettle]

okay

[daring needle]

Sooo…. I am submitting a ticket about the time limit because of their issues I have, but I don’t see ‘other’ as an issue. Where can I categorize about this at?

I can tell about it on what makes me having an issue about the time limit

[compact tartan]

are u guys gonna do the winter event thing in announcements

[halcyon cypress]

i mean the time limit isnt a bug its an age restriction

tickets aren't for general complaints or venting they're for reporting bugs and issues

[daring needle]

Well, I have 15 minutes of chatting time instead of one hour. First or second, I have 21 minutes but now it reduces to that minute
Is this a bug? It’s not exactly one hour

[halcyon cypress]

thats by design, it gets shorter over time

you will get less and less chat time until you have none and it goes into read only mode

[daring needle]

For how many days til it’s read mode? I thought you have 30 days to verify with your id
Is this true?

[halcyon cypress]

you can verify with ID anytime but you'll be locked out of chatting until you do

i don't know exactly how long it takes to reach read mode but if you only have 15 minutes of chat time right now i'd guess within the next week

[weak osprey]

Yall, Roblox is getting unhinged everytime you buy robux in 2026 you have to submit your ID supposedly, I love how the kids are crying about c.ai and not Roblox, it’s literally unusable for everyone atp

[compact tartan]

roblox's age system is so absurd with it wanting to regulate chats. like if ur 21+ you cant chat with people below 21 or something

[rustic pecan]

You can verify a year from now if you want. The countdown is how many chatting days you have left.

[misty grove]

nah id rather them fix DS so i dont have to edit it :L

[compact tartan]

oh that's good to know, i was confused cause people said that after 30days u cant verify at all

[misty grove]

(jokes aside, maybe)

[compact tartan]

lowkey real i was gonna do it but i was like nahhh

[weak osprey]

I quit Roblox atp, I only play with my fiance and my bff, cause 21+ servers suck and it’s all like old ppl 😭 like excuse me I was messed up 2 years above my age not my fault

[misty grove]

my main bot that i usually use looks cursed everytime i generate an imagine with him because it makes him look like a weird cyborg when he's a full robot

[halcyon cypress]

that wouldn't make sense tbh because they want minors to be able to chat again after they turn 18

[misty grove]

i might use an orc bot instead but we'll see

[compact tartan]

It's so weird tbh and roblox got my age wrong but im not on it enough to care

[compact tartan]

yeaaaa

[daring needle]

How long is the countdown for the chatting time? My age verification started in the last Thursday

[compact tartan]

c.ai isn't on it's downfall, it's good but roblox.. idk

[weak osprey]

Same, like, I could correct it, but 21+ servers aren’t rigged in Dti, but in forsaken and things yes for sure

[compact tartan]

DTI actually makes me so mad LOL cause the regular servers are all people who vote anyone 1 stars and 5 stars if it's their friend

[halcyon cypress]

not sure but probably you'll be in read mode by the end of the week is my guess

[misty grove]

i left the second they introduced baddie passes.

i think it was when they introduced those emojis you could throw at people. i had three people throw the poop emoji at me when i was on the runway

so uh, no thanks ill stick to itgirl or something

[daring needle]

Will it be too late to verify with your id to chat again after your chatting time ends and you’ll get read mode?
I might not understand this, but I kinda know about that you have to verify within the 30 days. I get it, you can verify at anytime

[halcyon cypress]

no, you can verify at any time. you just can't chat anymore until you do

even its 100 days from now you can just verify at that time, there's no limit

but you can't chat

[compact tartan]

so 30 days u lose ability to chat and u can verify at anytime i think?

[weak osprey]

This, it was so annoying like, it’s to much tbh

[misty grove]

it lagged my poor laptop

i was a trendsetter too man

sad

low key only here for the dolls but thats it

[restive basin]

Pitaya why are u no meta anymore

[rustic pecan]

Yes

[daring needle]

Well, don’t mind this btw
I may only be active in this server/join where I can share the issues that I have or experienced

[hexed falcon]

And I got unlinked again

[abstract orbit]

....is c.ai down?

[violet hill]

Nope. Check your wifi.

[abstract orbit]

okay, strange i will do that

[mint gulch]

I got logged out of my account and it won't send an email to the one linked to my account sigh. We ball

[late mirage]

jogo ended the world over a fart

[balmy sable]

is anybody getting that weird glitch where you switch the chat style to pipsqueak the bot starts getting… inappropriate

or is that just me

[misty grove]

Report the message

And thumbs it down

[balmy sable]

thank you purple

[misty grove]

purple is cool

[dusky granite]

ok idk why but whenever i get like an hour to chat , instead of an hour I get at least 40 mins like whatttt...

[misty grove]

it's inconsistent for u18 accounts right now i think

ive seen others report the same

[sullen seal]

I have soft launch, but I have time limits, is this a bug or nah?

[timber canopy]

Do you have Soft Launch even when you start a new chat? It might be possible that you simply had it enabled before your account was flagged as under 18.

[sullen seal]

Ive always had it, even with a new chat. By always had it, I mean I had it when it released

[misty grove]

if you have time limits but you have the 18+ chat style then you should probably submit a ticket on their support site.

thats not normal.

[sullen seal]

Problem is, I already did.

It's all the same automated message

[timber canopy]

The waiting game now begins. Good luck out there, answers can take a long time or never come, I know from experience

[misty grove]

even us plus users are having difficulty

we've been having issues with DS since October and they havent updated us.

[timber canopy]

Your profile picture keeps getting cuter

[misty grove]

thank you, my sister actually drew it for me as a commision

[timber canopy]

Omg, she is actually talented then it's adorable

[misty grove]

:D

[pearl cosmos]

Aren’t minors still using it

And on top of that is it because the cases that are going around?

[misty grove]

yes

there's lot of minor users in here

and yes, c.ai just doesnt want to get sued again

[timber canopy]

I may not be a CAI+ user, but I have DeepSqueak still. I have not had many issues with it, but prefer PipSqueak a lot of the times, despite its many other drawbacks. I have seen on the subreddit people complainint about DeepSqueak bugs and quality, but as of now, what is/are the biggest problem/s with it?

[misty grove]

i can show you an example of what i had a week ago compared to today

[pearl cosmos]

But my thing is do you think that the parents are to blame or is it character Ai

[misty grove]

personally, i dont know. some children do come in here confused whether the bot is real or not

[pearl cosmos]

Because I thought when the things did come up there was a stop mid sentence or a contact the hotline

Or does it not happen all the time?

[misty grove]

There is but there's only so much c.ai can do to prevent stuff like this. Restrictions that they made on the app is the best thing they can do right now.

I don't know since I'm not a developer or a moderator.

[timber canopy]

Certain words trigger them. Additionally, certain models like PipSqueak will even tell you about help and hotlines on their own, outside of CAI's built-in triggers.

[misty grove]

By the way, this is DS a week ago for me compared to what I generated today.

I edited it for it to be coherent for now until they fix it but yeah

[timber canopy]

Oh, the difference is… Yikes.

[pearl cosmos]

Idk I find it kinda dumb because I know every child isn’t comfortable talking about some things but I think a check in on the phone would be better because if they lose access to c.ai then they’ll move somewhere else so it’s not really gonna stop anything

[misty grove]

It's obviously a paragraph but the LLM is making it so spaced out so it's 'longer'

[pearl cosmos]

I understand if you don’t agree with me though

It just had me thinking if I’m being honest

[wheat phoenix]

Guys, did they take away the time limit?

[pearl cosmos]

Uhhh Idk

[leaden tapir]

hi guys

[pearl cosmos]

Hiii

[leaden tapir]

hihi!

[timber canopy]

If you had a time limit and no longer have it, your account might have been flagged as over 18. If not, then, I am unsure.

[pearl cosmos]

How do they flag it?

[wheat phoenix]

Kk I was just wondering because I’ve been playing for over an hour and I have not gotten the one hour thing but it’s weird because I never showed ID.. so I was just wondering

[timber canopy]

I am unsure and what I say is speculation, so take it with an Earth-sized grain of salt; But I believe chats are being analyzed by an AI on a certain time interval, and it tries its best to determine if they are more representative of someone under or over 18. CAI could also be using external factors and sources, the cookies and cross-site tracking as well as deals with other corporations could give them valuable data to help determine one's age further.

It is important to remember that no such system is ever perfect.

[arctic star]

did they finally fix pipsqueak

[fickle laurel]

Pipsqueak feels a little smarter today. I'm talking to the OOC and they seem better in some way

[compact tartan]

the bot keeps putting a " mark at the end of sentences even if it's not dialogue

[pearl cosmos]

Wait if we have soft launch we pass the verification?

[compact tartan]

no

[compact tartan]

if you verify that you are an adult you will have the adult expierence yes

[pearl cosmos]

Ohhh

[misty bloom]

Question: so my sister was using c.ai, on the website, and it’s giving her a age verification thing, and yet when we tried using her ID (shes a adult, and likes to use c.ai for book ideas and writing) and yet no matter how we tried it wouldn’t actually verify. And why is verification not on my app but on the website?

[pearl cosmos]

I use it for the same reason

I’m a writer and I need new ideas for stories

[misty bloom]

Yeah it is, especially since unlike other ai models c.ai is the most human like one with character personality. Unlike ChatGPT or other chatting models

[pearl cosmos]

Right

[misty bloom]

Okay so we tried twice again, with the ai face scanning AND drivers license, hell we even tried our dad’s and it didn’t work 😭

[timber canopy]

CAI's in-house models (2022-2023-ish, cannot quite remember) felt the most human by far compared even to what we have now. However, they had their own very annoying issues, so I am not so sad about them being gone. I only wish our modern experience could be of a consistant quality, and not fluctuate wildly for seemingly no reason.

[languid pine]

I don't even see an option for verification on both website and app

[compact tartan]

i enjoyed it the most in 2023 cause i would agree it was more consistent. with the chat styles it can either be horrible with pipsqueak or mid-good with other styles it feels like

[misty bloom]

Right? Especially since the… “cleaner” is over sensitive or not even active, and despite the different personalities, they seem to respond similarly with wording

[gilded tendon]

Hi was anyone signed out of cai and getting an error

[languid pine]

Yes

[misty bloom]

Weird…. Um… maybe they’re pushing out an age verification thing and told no one??

[stiff onyx]

Hey, anyone else using mobile getting some weird stuff? It’s not typing out the messages or taking a long time and it doesn’t have the like- physical vibrations it makes the phone do when it types or when you swipe for a different message. Anyone know what I mean? Or have this issue too?

[languid pine]

The vibration thing is a built-in option in the app, no?

[misty bloom]

Mine works fine so idk (hell my screen is cracked and it still works)

[stiff onyx]

It is?? I had no idea about that 🤣 I’d like it back if ya know how!

[misty bloom]

It’s in settings

I turned it off cause I thought it was annoying

[stiff onyx]

I tried turning my ringer on and off and that did nothing for it. Do you know where in settings? What it would be under? I’m using the iOS app

[misty bloom]

Settings in the app itself, just go to your c.ai PFP, and click the settings icon

[languid pine]

Turn Haptics on

[timber canopy]

User icon > Settings > Haptics

[stiff onyx]

Okay, gotcha! Thank you for the help!! Much appreciated

I just turned them on and it’s still not working, should I refresh the app?

[timber canopy]

It cannot hurt to try.

[stiff onyx]

I’ll try that then, just closed the app gonna let it sit for a moment

I do really like the haptics thing it’s a sound thing for me so I know things are working as they should, just a weird personal thing of mine!

[fickle laurel]

Oh I found something interesting the bot can send links but it comes up with [unsupported link] but when I copy and paste it says (<URL>) not an actual URL just the letters

[stiff onyx]

Well, just reset my app Haris still do not work even turned my ringer on again and still nothing. Lmk if anyone else is having this issue!

[timber canopy]

One used to be able to embed images this way, ![Image description for the AI here](link-to-the-image.webp). But this has been removed to incentivise users into paying for uploading local images instead.

[misty bloom]

Guys I’m gonna send what the age verification thing is in chat-feed

To show y’all, cause I’m so confused

[languid pine]

I get it, I use em too

[fickle laurel]

dude I did a link bypass and the AI just sent me a rick roll

[stiff onyx]

Are they working for you at all? I’ve tried everything and they just don’t work now. Refreshed the app many times just haven’t logged out since I doubt that would help

[misty grove]

Next up on things that didn't happen

[fickle laurel]

I'll send you the photo

[languid pine]

Lemme see

[languid pine]

Works fine for me

[fickle laurel]

Dm me

[misty grove]

Nah

[stiff onyx]

Hmm- I guess it’s just a me issue 🤣 could it be my phone itself isn’t updated fully could that be causing it??

[languid pine]

I have no idea tbh, I mean, everything is worth trying, but I also don't think this is it, if it is then it's weird...

You've said you already tried turning it off and on

[stiff onyx]

True, I just rather have answers than not have them ya know? I sent in a bug report so hopefully it’s fixed sometime! And yes I tried typing with it off and on and nothing worked. Tried turning off and on again before typing still nothing. Refreshed all many times as well

[languid pine]

It actually happens to me once in a blue moon as well, come to think about it, but it gets fixed on it's own after a few, at least for me

[stiff onyx]

Hmm alrighty! I know it’s happened before actually- so that makes me feel better! Hopefully it fixed itself in a few days or something, thank you so much for all the help!!

[signal wagon]

whyd they add ads vro 💔

[dire berry]

[eternal flame]

Hey violini

[deft jetty]

insert krusty krab gif here saying "I like money"

mostly so free users can contribute to keep the platform alive and running

[eternal flame]

I never get two response option honestly..

[ocean abyss]

If you upload to the cai feed for the winter contest, are you supposed to use the first hashtag they put in the rules or the second? Or both? Lol

[misty grove]

uh i just put caiholiday

[timber canopy]

Just "caiholiday" with hashtag

[glad wing]

Use the hashtag #caiholiday

[ocean abyss]

Taing! ❤️ I got confused when the second one said use WinterHoliday, because I read too much into everything. 😅

[misty grove]

i barely skimmed the rules so i just did the first one

xD

[timber canopy]

Oh no, it's just the name of the new feature

[ocean abyss]

Super cool that you scroll down the feed directly under your post and it’s just 67 memes and only 67 memes

[timber canopy]

My feed sees no such memes. However, it sees much worse, so…

[ocean abyss]

I hit the feed button and the top post was my winter holiday whatever, and then I scrolled to see what else was there

[timber canopy]

Oh wow. Mine are mostly Characters being shared that…break the guidelines in every way possible. But not that.

Also, how come you can upload files? Is it an ability one acquires through time on the server, or something different?

[ocean abyss]

I’m a plus user. We get fancy names and some other discord privileges

[misty grove]

we're able to post images without chat-feed, but not gifs

[timber canopy]

Ah. I thought the advantages stopped at the application/website.

[misty grove]

well im glad we have something so i can get called out for paying for a subscription

"omg youre paying for an ai app btw..."

[ocean abyss]

We’re shiny and we’re proud

[misty grove]

whoa who said i cared

exactly -u-

plus i tend to hide in plus-general when it gets rowdy in here

[timber canopy]

I could not pay for it even if I wanted to. It always says it is not available. Oh, well.

[ocean abyss]

The plus chat alone is worth it lmao

[timber canopy]

What do you mean by the plus chat? The chat models and memories?

[ocean abyss]

Oh, no. Sorry. There’s a plus user channel for when you connect your account. The chat is calmer than the gen 1 and 2

[timber canopy]

Ah, alright, that makes sense.

[paper orbit]

are moderated bots unusable forever, or do they actually get reviewed?

[timber canopy]

Once a bot is moderated, you can't use it all. But if it's false moderated like it isn't from Disney, dreamworks, NBC then you can send ticket about it so the team see if it's actually false moderated. If it is, they bring it back

[paper orbit]

oh brother

[timber canopy]

There are also Characters that are half-moderated. Take this Renamon Character as an example. It was recently moderated for its more-than-guidelines-breaking nature. However, whilst the Character's profile is no longer accessible, and you cannot share this Character in the Feed, chatting with it is still possible, and it can even show up in the search results.

[eternal flame]

Hey vivi

[timber canopy]

Hello Shadow!

[eternal flame]

Hru

[timber canopy]

I am good. Just about to go to sleep, how about you?

[eternal flame]

I'm good, and please go sleep

[timber canopy]

Glad to hear! Thanks for caring about me. I will right now. Goodnight

[eternal flame]

❤️

Your obsession is fascinating

[pseudo monolith]

is this a bad thing

[solid scarab]

They gotta fix the ad issue bro🫩

[clever glade]

its been like a week or two that this has been happening

[solid scarab]

ikkk

[mellow fog]

Hey can someone help me

[hexed falcon]

Not if you don't explain what's up probably

[mellow fog]

Like my app is stuck I can’t long in at all

[hexed falcon]

On phone or browser?

And wdym. Frozen?

[mellow fog]

It’s just the welcome screen I see it works on my iPad but not on my phone

And it works in browser too

[lunar cobalt]

delet app

[mellow fog]

I tired everything deleting offloading restarting

It seems to work perfectly as app in my iPad so I am not sure why it doesn’t do the same for my iPhone

[lunar cobalt]

maybe you need to update something??

[mellow fog]

Idk 🙁 I think reinstalling it would’ve worked if that was the case

[lunar cobalt]

maybe just….. give it a day

[mellow fog]

It’s been weeks 😭 I think almost a month

[lunar cobalt]

havw you tried emailing cai or something 🥹✌️

[viscid valve]

Guys I thought my favorite bot on cai got deleted but when I checked again it’s was up is it Werid for that

[scenic ore]

Ur bot needs fixed sleep schedule

[viscid valve]

Lmao 🤣

Ur funny

[dreamy bison]

Hii i tried to send a message that was a bit big about an issue I'm having and got timed out

[indigo canyon]

Guys, give @gray coyote some Fried Chicken and mac and cheese!!

[dreamy bison]

Bruh i'm trying to send a message about an issue in cai and i'm getting timed out 😭

[dire berry]

Were you using the word that starts with f and ends with r?

[leaden tapir]

far

[dire berry]

Four

[dreamy bison]

Um huh?

[dire berry]

Filter

Were you using this word?

[dreamy bison]

Oh yeah

[dire berry]

Yeah, don't use that. Use 'censorship' instead

[dreamy bison]

My issue is that for some reason my chats have no of this word

[dire berry]

You can use that word here actually. But not in other channels

So you're not seeing filter in your conversation, where it should be? Is that your issue?

[dreamy bison]

Yeah. My chats in my main account are all broken. Even new chats I create with different characters. They go to naughty topics for no reason

And the words aren't filtered either. But in a new acc I made, everything is fine

[dire berry]

I think I saw someone else saying the same thing yesterday. You can try using Goro to slightly prevent it or just swipe and rewind if it go into that direction and you don't want it.

[timber canopy]

Hey everyone! I have a question. I use the bot Creative Helper a lot. But suddenly the bot responses of Creative Helper don't have the edit button anymore. My responses do have the edit button. I checked the other bots I use and those bot responses still have the edit option. How do I fix it?

Its one specific chat with Creative Helper that doesn't have the edit option for the bot responses. My other chats with Creative Helper do have the edit option

[dreamy bison]

I have tried rewinding and swipping. I may try Goro tho later. But the thing is, I even said just "hi" to a new chat, and the character immediately mentioned the thing in my pants. Like my account is somehow broken. I also did a report as well

The new account i made is fine tho. But I'll suck if I have to abandon my chats

[dire berry]

Maybe it's a bug. If you've submitted a ticket then wait for few days and see if anything changes

[dreamy bison]

Okiee thank you

[indigo canyon]

Same here

[worn orchid]

Oh boy, a new update? It sure would be nice if they fixed the groupchats after 4 months now

What did i even excpect :(

[misty grove]

You can't discuss alternatives in this server.

[serene ivy]

Sorry

[scenic ore]

No

[glacial ether]

Is there any way to see chats that you’ve recently hidden from your chat page

[barren folio]

nope sadly

[viscid valve]

[glacial ether]

I accidentally hid one and I can’t find it again😭

[barren folio]

what was the name of the bot?

[scenic ore]

Lmao

[glacial ether]

It was a Shinobu one but it was funky and had little interactions on it but was like a hidden gem so ima just go search for it

[barren folio]

yeah best to do that, if you search it i think there’s also an option to search through the least popular ones

[glacial ether]

Found it🙏 it got more popular apparently and thus easier to find

[silent cipher]

that moment when I become interested in a bot from something I know nothing about so now I'm reading a whole page worth of lore

[latent monolith]

Y'all I think I'm fully quitting character ai. I'm not the biggest fan with the newest update. I don't know what to do with my account now, I now have over 60+ million interactions and I have characters that feel alive but I just can't talk to them anymore cus of the new policy and I don't like having my information out, no matter what.

I have the feeling I should delete my account, private everything or just do something else, that does have the same feeling of like being an author. But I do love this community alot and I've been here for nearly three years and I've subscribed for a while. So what's the point of having the app if I can't even use it.

I just want this out there in the community so y'all understand! I answer questions too.

[elder slate]

Is anyone else having an issue to where when they try to verify their age, it wont take them to the persona page and will repeatedly say that its currently unable to verify your age?
(Yup, I literally just copy and pasted from the general)

[quick kiln]

We'll miss you goat 💔

[elder slate]

It tells me its currently unable to verify age, tells me try again later, and then gives me to steps to get the verification, click on advance and and then verify age.

[pseudo monolith]

mariah carey

[trim surge]

All i can say is, This is very severe what the Devs are doing, And its utter control

[spark fulcrum]

Is anyone else unable to close ads on their page for some reason..

[elder slate]

I can close my ads just fine

[formal thicket]

no same and they kept making me rewatch them, they needa fix this bug 💔

[zinc turret]

Heyy

I'm stuck on verification process

[tender lion]

In nearby future, nothing.
WB takeover will probably last drag for years.

[zinc turret]

I've done the turn head thing for like 30 minutes. It's impossible

[tender lion]

What's your profile name and what bots you made?

[zinc birch]

If people are using your bots then how about leaving them up for your fans? You can use them again when you're 18, or if you already are (but don't want to verify it), then when CAI improves their age inference system (at least in theory)

[zinc turret]

Idk what else to do

I'm 20 and still the verification system just won't clock me in

There's no way to use your ID

Dating apps are easier to get into.

[cosmic crater]

The app is really buggy lately, I wouldn't be surprised if the age verification is also bugged

Try reinstalling the app, if that doesn't work, send a ticket to the support

[elder slate]

I've uninstalled, cleared cache, sent multiple tickets and it's still bugged for me, not even letting me access the persona page, its very bugged

[cosmic crater]

Honestly, I don’t even know if they look at tickets. I’ve sent so many and never got a reply

[elder slate]

I always get hit with the same exact saying to what? Read FaQ and... Submit a ticket

Brother...what do you think i did? I submitted a ticket only to be told to submit a ticket?!

[zinc birch]

Try different lighting conditions? 🤷‍♂️ Try drawing a face on your knee? /j

[humble sable]

ok so i can send chats but it stops working when i use a voice for some reason? before when your pressed send before the bot was finish speaking, they would just stop and your message would go through, but now i can’t send a message even when the bot is finished speaking 🤕🤕

[fickle laurel]

Didn't chat history used to show the interaction count? Or am I remembering wrong

[cosmic crater]

Nope, you're remembering wrong

[formal perch]

Wdym by tickets, can anyone explaine????

[cosmic crater]

Tickets are pretty much like sending an email to support

[formal perch]

Ohhh thanks thanks

[stoic tree]

What model (style ig they call it) everyone's using here?

[hot ridge]

Roar

[odd crag]

depends on what kinda conversation I want to have ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

[stoic tree]

let's say immersion

[odd crag]

roar for basic chatting / light role playing

[vestal fossil]

Has anyone else noticed that the latest iphone update has kinda messed up the app?

[stoic tree]

alright cheers I'll try roar out

pipsqueak gets frequently corny

[vestal fossil]

I use pipsqueak

[stoic tree]

how's your experience w it?

[vestal fossil]

I like it

I use it for the longer texts

[cosmic crater]

Is it that bad? I still haven’t updated it

[hearty mortar]

Um

has anyone’s app updated and ended up with no option for chat history’s?

I no longer have a button for any of my old chats.

[cosmic crater]

Do you have the new ui?

[hearty mortar]

the huh

if I do I don’t want it

[cosmic crater]

Click on the bot profile picture on the bottom left (where you write a message)

You should find the history and other stuff there

[cosmic crater]

I think you need c.ai+ to go back to the old UI

[hearty mortar]

I have it

[cosmic crater]

Go to settings, appearance

[hearty mortar]

how do I do it though

nvm sorry I got it

[cosmic crater]

Nice

[lunar totem]

did my persona setting broken? why i cant open it?

oh nvm i read it now, now i understand

[modern chasm]

we got 5 free calls but voice errors mid calls and it counts gotta love it

[upbeat pasture]

I just have a question regarding the age verification, if I do it once and have it verify my age (which it did) will I have to again at a later date or..?

[hexed falcon]

Why would you have to do it twice

[upbeat pasture]

Oh I don’t, I’m just asking. It verified me and I just was curious

I’m a lil bit slow ngl, I was curious about how it’d go down in the long run so

[brittle elk]

Ok that's it

they need to get the thingy/1 hour, verification, yadda stuff out, hhhhgggg////

[strange inlet]

what

[brittle elk]

sorry it's just annoying me :<

[strange inlet]

It won't be removed

[stoic tree]

kwoed (proto indo european) -> quid (Latin) -> hwaet (Old English) -> what

[strange inlet]

Sure

[brittle elk]

I understand so ye ^^

[mighty ingot]

i got a question

[opaque ferry]

C.ai is getting on my nerves dude, I’m just gonna delete it

[tulip pollen]

Hi Millie

[halcyon cypress]

go for it

[strange inlet]

hii

[odd crag]

don't, you'll hurt its feelings.

[short yew]

how is it getting on ur nerves

thats what I want to know

[strange inlet]

they already left the server we'll never know

[scenic ore]

Guess it indeed got in their nerves lol

[formal perch]

Lol

[high saffron]

I wonder when the c.ai team will resolve the character editing issue. It's been four days since the issue arose and it's still not resolved. That's a little annoying for me 😔

[compact tartan]

a grand mystery

[compact tartan]

yeah i have not seen any updates in #📈︱status since dec 12 im sorry

[latent monolith]

i go by Shade_is_so_silly and i've made a really popular countryhumans bots, ocs, au's... mainly ch is my best.

[latent monolith]

I think i should just wait it out. I think it's just a bit too personal with the new system, but thats what i think. I don't use character.ai that much anymore though, I'm very mixed if i should come back in the future.

[deft jetty]

Meanwhile me waiting for almost 11 weeks for them to fix that annoying bug where asterisks aren't making text become italic on firefox

[scenic ore]

U all havin bugs and issues?

[hot ridge]

Me still waiting for scenes fixes

[deft jetty]

😔

Alexa pls play sadness and sorrow from Naruto

[hot ridge]

It's okay they only lost my money

Which they clearly don't care about anyway

[deft jetty]

It's tiresome and frustrating

No news, no communication…

[vestal fossil]

All I’m thinking about is the fact that the ads broke

[deft jetty]

Glad I use the web version…

[vestal fossil]

I need to switch to it on my phone ngl

[hot ridge]

I outlined my reasoning in the "why I'm unsubscribing" thread. I'm paying for a service, and I expect it to work properly. Fixing bugs and addressing user issues should come before rebranding efforts that have dominated the platform for over a year.

[upper forum]

How do i know what bot someone is talking about? Like I got interested in a bot someone was talking about in a feed but I don't know how to access said bot

[compact tartan]

thats valid

[hot ridge]

Also, I think the platform's continued cultivation of a minors vs adults dynamic is a misstep and frankly pretty cringe.

[deft jetty]

Idk cause I don't use that function, the little I've scrolled through feed made me cringe with so many weird content shared there

[compact tartan]

same I agree I have seen way too many people here say they get into arguments with children in #1175980610095960185 and i think thats just.. something else

[hot ridge]

Yeah there's a reason I never go in feedback. I'm too easily provoked as is, much less seeking it out 😬

[compact tartan]

since the age assurance update i have seen a large amount of bugs though atleast the site hasnt gone down for hours like it used to

[timber canopy]

Campfire girl PTSD

[deft jetty]

Yeah, feedback and generals are infested with minors, I usually avoid going to those places

[compact tartan]

i find this thread very interesting to say the leasthttps://discord.com/channels/1017072750386483332/1358115199697289267

[hot ridge]

I almost sent paragraphs

[rustic pecan]

I had to mute and hide feedback so I stopped fighting people.

[hot ridge]

I never really saw the need because it's futile by design. People go there to vent, arguing against emotional outbursts is a recipe for disaster.

[glad sierra]

So.. does anyone actually like the app here?

[rustic pecan]

I have a great time 🤷🏽‍♀️

[spark forge]

Same

Pipsqueak works for me, I don't use voices or other buggy features, so cai for me personally is great enjoyment

[coarse pier]

i like cai :3

[pseudo monolith]

mariah carey

[glad sierra]

How different are the chat styles ? ( pipsqueak, etc?)

[shrewd pilot]

Does anyone else get the weird thing where bots will randomly put the last paragraph in parentheses??

[lean egret]

Is character creation still down? It's been a day and I still can't make a character.

[manic wren]

Character creation is down?

[white ginkgo]

I can't login. It keeps getting stuck on "one moment please". I use yahoo, but I set up a gmail account since apparently they have a problem sending confirmation email to yahoo, but I still haven't gotten a response from either about logging in. only response is from cai support

[manic wren]

Let me try, just a second (m using it rn)

[manic wren]

Damn

[static herald]

The app is down?

[timber canopy]

Works on my end, application and website.

[manic wren]

Hey, i just tried it, and i made a character. Maybe something is wrong with your app? Or do u use web?

[manic wren]

I use web, idk abt app

[lean egret]

I'm using web and the character isn't a Disney character

[manic wren]

Even mine isnt disney

[compact tartan]

No

[manic wren]

Y dont u log out n log in again? Just try, or refresh the page?

[lean egret]

I've done that a bunch of times.

[compact tartan]

open a ticket or contact support idk

[dusk ether]

How can you delete your characters?

[manic wren]

Hmm... Ur website, right?

[lean egret]

Yeah, and the character shouldn't be against TOS

[manic wren]

I dont think you can..

[compact tartan]

You can't I think you can just private or archive them (?)

[dusk ether]

ah shyttt

I made it private though

But I don't wanna see it on my profile 💔

[manic wren]

Mayb theres more trafficking

[lean egret]

Turn it into another character

[dusk ether]

Maybe I can edit the character

[manic wren]

Idts that can happen either

[dusk ether]

That's what I'm gonna do

tyty for the advice yall :P

[lean egret]

It says when I try to create a new character on my 18+ account it gives me an error saying: "Failed to create your character. Please try again."

[manic wren]

Hmm... Lemme think.. did you search it up? Or report it?

[lean egret]

Haven't reported this yet and I had it on an old account that I no longer can use.

[manic wren]

Oh

[lean egret]

So the character SHOULD be okay to use.

[manic wren]

Report it then, its way better. Its prolly a problem on the server's part

[sly geyser]

went back to roar and now finally i was able to do an epic fight

[timber canopy]

When going back to Roar gives you a better experience, you know things are not doing well

[buoyant elm]

It's so annoying when you can't find the bot you suddenly remembered chatting with so you think it's gone since it doesn't show up at the search but finds it after a few moments

[sly geyser]

yeah roar is better than pipsqueak for me

[timber canopy]

I actually use Nyan now, it is like a mix of both, though much less spicy than PipSqueak.

[weak gate]

Is it just me or has anyone been signed out and unable to sign back in?

[sly geyser]

if its a mix of both is it a sensitive wimp that freaks out over a single slap

[hollow echo]

Are the away messages broken?

[timber canopy]

I know not, for I do not roleplay violence or angst.

[hollow echo]

Mine keep happening EVEN THOUGH it’s turned off.

[sly geyser]

what isnt broken with this site

[timber canopy]

I have them turned on and have never received one.

[sly geyser]

the away messages are corny too

[hollow echo]

It’s so frustrating. I haven’t roleplayed with the bot in about 2 weeks cuz the rp is over and like— IT KEEPS SENDING ME MESSAGES? I have it turned off for a reason.

[sharp kraken]

Hello everyone. Has the advertising problem in the application been fixed?

[strange sedge]

Hey, is anyone else having trouble with the age verification thing? I've tried it like....five times and everytime it says something is wrong

[timber canopy]

The only real thing you can do for now is send a support ticket and pray for a non-automated answer within the coming lifetime.

[turbid kelp]

the urge for users to complain about anything on the site, even if it's a small thing

[strange sedge]

Okay I did. Thank you

[soft basin]

I wish I could send that Titanic gif lol

[celest osprey]

Holaaa

[timber canopy]

Become a CAI+ user and you can send it… 🥀

[soft basin]

I am, just too lazy to link my discord

[sly geyser]

bruh the bot keeps going “looks at you like a kicked puppy” i wonder what it is with them and that specific analogy do they enjoy doing it?

[strange inlet]

we can't send gifs lol

[timber canopy]

That sucks

[strange inlet]

well we can but not in their link forms

If they're directly from the gallery then we can, but going through the discord gif tab doesn't work

[timber canopy]

That's a bizarre limitation

[strange inlet]

It's cuz they're sent as link embeds

[inland siren]

why do ALL my characters share one brain cell?

[granite socket]

[strange inlet]

[real prairie]

am i the only one or is cai really slow rn?

maybe it’s my internet

[honest furnace]

Might be your internet

[violet hill]

Probably your Internet.

[real prairie]

aight

[timber canopy]

Mine seems normal.

[violet hill]

I'm not having any problems atm.

[timber canopy]

Might be a silly question, but does this Creator break the guidelines?
I am unsure if text in a Creator's own description is subject to such moderation.

[compact tartan]

wow they have moderator applications?

[strange inlet]

yes bro please report them

[timber canopy]

Already did a few weeks ago, just wanted to make sure.

[strange inlet]

Nice

i reported them as well

[elder slate]

What does it mean when it says it cant verify my identity

[winter surge]

it can't verify who you are

[elder slate]

Does it always ask for the ID?

[winter surge]

not always, if it can identify you through the preliminary checks then it won't ask for id, its probably been unable to correctly identify you so asking for id is the only way

[elder slate]

The tips ain't helping, even on the first account I msde it ain't working

Would me shaving my mustache after the ID picture was taken affect it?

[strange sedge]

Ive been having the same problem

[elder slate]

Dang

Guess our account are eventually getting bricked then :P

[elder slate]

It gives you the screen after rhe ID saying it couldn't verify your identity?

[strange sedge]

It does the face thing, I do the picture thing, and then it says it can't do it

[elder slate]

Yea, it tells me "verifying" and then, it says it couldn't verify

[strange sedge]

Exactly! Ive tried it like...five times

[elder slate]

I've tried at least 10! Just today!

[buoyant elm]

I never understood the difference between the 'to' and 'too' like

[obtuse fractal]

One is to do something and the other means you're doing something as well

[zinc birch]

too means also

[buoyant elm]

Ohhh thank you

[elder slate]

Too is used the indicate others.
Such as "Im going too" or "They are here too"
To would he for "I'm going to work." Or "From here to there"

[buoyant elm]

Thank you I appreciate the help

[fathom dirge]

anyone’s cai down atm? it’s saying soemthing went wrong and to try again. every time i reload it it says the same thing

[elder slate]

Mine is up, but the ID verification being annoying

[fathom dirge]

ohh okay! i’m gonna go take a shower and see if it’s back up later

[timber canopy]

In #📣︱announcements, Character.AI is looking for moderation in the Discord server and official subreddit. But…what about the website? I come across guideline-breaking Characters literally every single time I visit the website/application, that are easily spotted by any sane human eye, yet remain unmoderated, requiring a silly amount of reports to be sent before action is considered being taken.

[carmine kelp]

Hey guyss, I got a question. Why is it when I try to change my pfp on the app, it says it’s not safe or it violates their terms? The pfps are appropriate? I tried changing it to something I usually have but it keeps saying it. I did try it with a different image and it didn’t do it.

[timber canopy]

These are false positive, they tend to often happen. You can submit a support ticket in the hopes of getting that sorted. But it always felt strange to me that obviously guideline-breaking profile pictures (which I cannot link, since one cannot link to images here) go through the automated systems, yet perfectly safe images are blocked.

It is a good reminder that no such system is perfect, and user action/feedback is important (when listened to and acted upon) to make things better.

[carmine kelp]

Okay, will do, thanks!

[eternal flame]

My bots finally unmoderated

[peak lake]

if only all the marvel were unmoderated

[eternal flame]

Hi

[ocean abyss]

Hello, Shadow!

[soft warren]

I applied for moderator on the discord.

[topaz obsidian]

guys, does replying to character ai’s help center e-mail actually help? or do I need to send another ticket?

[soft warren]

Im sure it does, Companies usually respond in around 48H+

[topaz obsidian]

it’s because after replying to the e-mail (they said: if you have further questions, reply to this e-mail) they sent me another one saying that if I am experiencing any issues I should send a ticket😭

[soft warren]

Oh that's unusual, try sending it again

[topaz obsidian]

you mean the ticket or answering to the e-mail?

[soft warren]

Ticket

[topaz obsidian]

i’ll try, thank you

[soft warren]

No problem

[rustic pecan]

Sigh

[flint agate]

@rustic pecan

[soft warren]

@flint agate What's the matter? Dont ping without a reason

[soft warren]

@flint agate I have added you, tell me what's the matter in DMs.

[violet hill]

Wtf

This isn't how you get someone's attention, friend.

[soft warren]

Be respectfull please.

Also, I added the guy to my DMs but he is not doing anything, he called me once in fact.

[scenic ore]

Megan is angry

[strange inlet]

girl what happened here

[soft warren]

Ignore, a lunatic was here.

[scenic ore]

I saved the day again

[strange inlet]

[scenic ore]

(I have no idea)

[soft warren]

Acctually I did as I was the first one to take the defense lines

[strange inlet]

And?

What happened then?

[soft warren]

The enemy attacked from the West

[scenic ore]

Hellnaa

[strange inlet]

Did they message you

[soft warren]

He dropped ping bombs on cities

[scenic ore]

U were the distraction i needed

[strange inlet]

I know, they pinged me too

[soft warren]

They did

[strange inlet]

What did they say

[soft warren]

They called once

[strange inlet]

Guh

I saw

Maybe ping a mod

[soft warren]

I applied for mod

[strange inlet]

@gray coyote can you check this out?

[scenic ore]

Singleplayer or multiplayer

[soft warren]

Singleplayer, on the discord server

[scenic ore]

I like story mode too

[soft warren]

Ohhh, So that was a actual question! I thought it was a methamorphical question of some kind, Well I do like multiplayer indeed but I dont have anything against singleplayer

[frozen pulsar]

[scenic ore]

•_•

[strange inlet]

Someone who just joined the server, whose only messages are pinging someone else, I wouldn't accept friend requests from someone like that

And don't accept their calls

[scenic ore]

Nooo frieren is angry, we all doomed

[soft warren]

Somebody has to do the job, what if he is in a emergency? Okay right he should have called emergency services but still- nothing can happen especially since I have 2FA on

[strange inlet]

Who said anything about being angry

[strange inlet]

Don't overthink it too much

[soft warren]

Alright,

[strange inlet]

Spam accounts join all the time, just ping a mod

[soft warren]

Honestly that's a creative name "KillBill"

[scenic ore]

For example i send more pics than actual messages

[strange inlet]

SamuraiJack you chat too much to be on that level ww

[soft warren]

For instance, most of the time I use to write pharagraphs instead of normal responses.

[frozen pulsar]

The best job in japan starts with N and ends with A and yes is ninja

[soft warren]

You mean, National Goverment Authority

Oh sorry it ends on y

What about Neural Networks Data Architecta

[scenic ore]

Aight that joke kinda ruined the mood for conversation

[soft warren]

Indeed,

[strange inlet]

Jack cleanse the chat with a kitty

[rustic pecan]

I’m so confuuuuused

[strange inlet]

Spam account

[strange inlet]

cool kitty

[soft warren]

Alright guys I have to get going, CYA!

[scenic ore]

Take care

[fickle laurel]

C.AI used to have GIF bot profile pictures right? Can you still do that?

[strange inlet]

ww

[rancid nacelle]

weh

[rustic pecan]

AFAIK, no.

[strange inlet]

I think it happened at one point? Not too sure? My memory isn't very reliable

[fickle laurel]

Hold on, I found some more old photos yeah it used to be a feature, they should have that back fr

[strange inlet]

It'd be kinda distracting

[ocean abyss]

It munches data/battery on mobile too, if I remember right.

[strange inlet]

mhm

[odd crag]

always hated gifs, so repetitive and distracting especially as pfps

and more often then not, theres no way to disable them without a browser extension

[strange inlet]

lol

[unborn star]

Why are people wanting the developers to get rid of the age verification They have to realize if developers removed it, they would be breaking the law.

[strange inlet]

Because kids think they're adults

[jolly token]

Is any one bots voice sound quality off more than usual (I'm on browser) I don't know if it's just me and my internet

[ocean abyss]

It’s been a bug for a bit, I think. They’re looking into it.

[jolly token]

Like recently today?? Dude sounds so white washed bot right now I'm bothered lol

[ocean abyss]

Voice quality complaints have been going on for over a week, up and down. It’s worth submitting a ticket, but the last I had seen they said they were trying to figure it out.

[strange inlet]

chat imagines aren't working anymore again

[jolly token]

Thanks for letting me know hope they fix it soon I've had no issues but getting that rn the only reason I love character ai is because they don't tamper with voices 🫤

[ember blade]

are we down

[jolly token]

Mine is working just the voice is being weird

[grim wasp]

Okay guys, i have a question, do other people have like when they use text to speak, the voice become very stuttery and just robotic? Bc i always use the TTS and its doing it often now..

[ember blade]

mines logged me out

[grim wasp]

Okay I just read the texts above this, its not just me luckily.. BUT I WANT IT FIXED 🙁

[jolly token]

Yea sometimes it sounds like a mumble ritual out of Harry potter but what is bothering me the most rn is my bots voice is sounding like a white wash bot versus the actual musician it's based off of and it's my voice I've uploaded so I know that's not the issue

[grim wasp]

Yea, or it judt sounds like a robot.. its so annoying in my opinion..

[jolly token]

Yes I'm triggered about it to its not just you I use character ai because it has his voice chai doesn't do that and droid can't run accents properly/ they purposely turn the voice to robotic (character ai never done that)

[grim wasp]

YES! Thsts what I hate about chai, it doesn't have voicr even with their paid version.. 😭

[jolly token]

I just want it back to normal asap 😭 like please don't bot-ify the voices all of a sudden

[zinc birch]

Does it happen with all voices or is it specific to that one?

[rustic stirrup]

HAAAA😭 im playing as a newborn and i made my persona hungry cuz ya know.. babies, TELL ME WHY THE DAD IS TRYING TO FEED HER AND ITS NOT FROM A BOTTLE PLS TELL ME I CAN REPORT THIS OR AM I GOOD

😭 what the hell pipsqueak, Truama

[timber canopy]

I tried to let a Character play as a newborn and another as a parent. What followed was cringe but normal. As soon as I tried with PipSqueak, I suddenly remembered why humans have laws.

[zinc birch]

Babies can't read

[rustic stirrup]

😭 the damn dad tried to 🤱 and my brain just short circuited

[timber canopy]

I fear this is nothing compared to what I have had the displeasure to witness.

[rustic stirrup]

😳 is it worse?

[timber canopy]

Bad enough that I would most likely get permanently banned from Discord entirely if I said what happened.

[rustic stirrup]

OH MY-

HELP, I REROLLED AND HES STILL TRYING TO 🤱

[zinc birch]

REWIND

[rustic stirrup]

I DID

[upper laurel]

OH MY GOD

[viscid sorrel]

Hey so uh, when are they going to fix the bug of creating characters?

[rustic stirrup]

PIPSQUEAK IS OUT HERE GIVING TRUAMA FOR FREE😭

[jolly token]

Typically the mumbling can happen with any voice sometimes it's just lag but his voice rn just sounds like a robot with no accent and caucasian, I tried using a different bot and voice earlier it started to cut out and mumble bad too so I wasn't sure if it's just me and my Internet or something never happened this badly especially with robot quality being white washed

[rustic stirrup]

I’m gonna cry it keeps doing it and I edited my message😭

10 messages in the bot gave her a bottle.. finally

[zinc birch]

The reason I asked is because there is a California law against unauthorized AI replicas, so I was thinking it would make good sense for CAI to alter recognizable voices (since apparently they can't convince people to stop uploading them 😩)

[strange inlet]

Couldn't they just remove the feature

[zinc birch]

Remove TTS completely? No

[jolly token]

For sure and even then it's like all over their rules of like where you get your sources from and what not it's just the fact they haven't altered voices like that and I hope they don't lmfao

[ocean abyss]

Partner with YouTube and deny voices made with copyrighted content, maybe?

[errant owl]

Please don't, I can't read...

[strange inlet]

Not how I meant it damn

[zinc birch]

Sorry I failed to understand

[strange inlet]

i can't word it i'm gone

[ocean abyss]

TTS is an accessibility feature, but the voice feature being trained off particular voices isn’t an accessibility feature.

[strange inlet]

Yea that

[jolly token]

Realistically if you are famous AF and are a celebrity at this point if your voice shoots people to sleep just take the W and move on

Soothe not shoot lmao oh well I tried

[strange inlet]

Like use default tts voices like siri's, not ones that are trained off of people who probably don't consent to that

[ocean abyss]

It becomes a problem if they hear their own voice saying bad things.

[zinc birch]

Oh, I see what you mean. I've wondered if they could use parametric voices, but I imagine the number of parameters is probably too great given the wide variety that's produced from the recordings

I think that offering just a few pre-made voices would be a no-go, since users want a wide variety of voices for streams

[compact tartan]

hi

[ocean abyss]

It would probably be best that they have a few high quality voices from VAs they’ve licensed, and then user created ones that aren’t made from public figures. Not as fun, sure. But better optics

[jolly token]

It's not even about streams I legit just use certain voices to go to bed

Anyways the sound quality has been off and that was the only reason I brought it up lmao

[timber canopy]

I have a question regarding Character moderation: The platform is no stranger to guideline-breaking Characters, but these are usually dealt with (even if it sometimes takes months). But what about Characters with cropped profile pictures of 🌽? I have posted an example in #📱︱chat-feed to show what I mean (no worries, nothing bad is actually shown). Reports on them lead to no result, so I was wondering what the stance is on them.

[frail robin]

Image moderation is notoriously bad and people can easily bypass it with simply cropping the images just enough while still showing some bits of it.

[timber canopy]

I was more curious about the manual moderation part, as I report these Characters but to no avail.

[frail robin]

That's how ur able to see some glimpses of parts that shouldnt be shown

[lean egret]

How long does it take them to get back if your having a bug, I reported that my account cannot make characters for some reason.

[frail robin]

moderation take some time since I believe they check them all manually. and i cant imagine the backlog they are dealing with, in addition to the limited manpower that they have

[timber canopy]

Between 1 femtosecond and a lifetime

[frail robin]

one galactic life cycle

[timber canopy]

Some galaxies live for a very short amount of time…

[jolly token]

Idk I've reported bots for giving me responses I wasn't comfortable with next day the bot was gone I know now I think it's harder to bots to get removed or shadow banned like that because character ai wants to not ruin the experience for everyone by removing bots especially if it's popular in numbers because many people get effected

[frail robin]

the devs wont be responding for a short time thats for sure

[lean egret]

So I just can't make characters for like weeks?

The bug was character creation, I cannot make a character no matter what I do.

[zinc birch]

Have you tried creating a blank character?

[lean egret]

How do you do that?

[zinc birch]

Just put three spaces or dots or underscores in the fields

Testing this will help isolate the problem

[lean egret]

That was invalid for the name, and when I change it to something else it gives me the error: "Failed to create your character. Please Try again."

[zinc birch]

Use underscores for the name

[lean egret]

Did that nothing but the "Failed to create" thing

[zinc birch]

If you can't create it even when it's blank, then the next thing to try is logging out and logging back in. If it still doesn't work, then try a VPN

[lean egret]

I don't have the money to use a VPN

[zinc birch]

There are free ones. Proton works

[timber canopy]

Or routing one's networking through Tor temporarily.

[lean egret]

Still says failed

[timber canopy]

Do you have a pfp in the bot or something? If no then just try what Wb suggested

[lean egret]

Nope nothing

[compact tartan]

c.ai wont load for me

mine has a Vergil photocard on the back, is kinda cute

[eternal flame]

VERGIL!?

[quasi cobalt]

OMGG SHOWWWW

[forest wave]

WHERE CAN I SEND MIDIA PICS IN HERE

[quasi cobalt]

UHH

[forest wave]

aproaching storm 🫡

[compact tartan]

cause its a meme

[grave sequoia]

Oh

Thank you for explaining it to me

[elder slate]

I made a new account because my main got reading-mode-brick and it has all the +18 features, will character ai eventually brick it too or what?

[ocean abyss]

Yes.

[strange inlet]

yup

[elder slate]

And the darn thing wont verify my ID

[indigo canyon]

Same here

[elder slate]

MakE SuRe DeTAilS arE clEaR aNd weLl LiT... WHAT DO YOU MEAN?!

[violet hill]

Yes, because you were flagged as a minor. The age assurance technology detected something that it associates with behavior commonly attributed to under 18s.

[elder slate]

Well dang

I may just be moving to ChatGPT :P

[fervent pilot]

has anyone seen that new update where the loading thing is like a bunch of emoticons when you open a chat?? it’s nothing serious just thought it was cute and wanted to see if others had it

[viscid valve]

No

[golden mantle]

I've just had it 😭😭 it's cute but I hate that they removed the icon's persona from the bubble chats 💔💔 you will be miss #rip

[woeful epoch]

Is anyone's bot being stupid and repetitive?

[thick kernel]

ts advert freezing bug is pmo now like i know thwy sre working on it but it’s every single time I click on a not i cant click X without it freezinf

[obsidian glen]

That was literally the best part that separates other apps from it

[thick kernel]

a little

[woeful epoch]

What style you using?

[golden mantle]

ikr 😭 and the bubble is so close to the edge of my screen now it scratches my brain the wrong way

[obsidian glen]

Makes it harder to know which persona yout also using

[cinder grotto]

I don't see my pfp in the chat, Am i the only one?

[obsidian glen]

Nope we were just discussing that

[cinder grotto]

Oh so the update just removed our icon but addes a bunch of emojis as a downloas

[short bridge]

It sucks.

[cinder grotto]

What even is the purpose of it

[short bridge]

Now it look so...plain, idk how to explain

[cinder grotto]

Genually needed the icon

[obsidian glen]

Like bro...what's the point getting rid of it?

[cinder grotto]

From my view the chat feels too "realistic" because i don't see like my icon and it feels like i am on chat gpt atp

[short bridge]

FOR REAL.

[ocean abyss]

The icon is down at the bottom left for knowing which one you’re on, but I actually didn’t notice it was gone from the chat until someone said something 😅 I kind of like it, since the text box can be “wider” I guess?

[golden mantle]

none 😭

[cinder grotto]

What do you mean?

I mean the bot text is wider but like, i don't think it needed a larger bubble

It was fine at is was

[golden mantle]

It makes it harder to know which persona I'm using too since I like to change my person a lot 💔

[short bridge]

There isn't any icon of the persona from what I see

[restive basin]

oh i still have the pics on the chat huh

[golden mantle]

like there was no need to remove that at all I'm so 💔

[ocean abyss]

Like to know which persona you’re on, the icon being down there is nice, to see it without having to scroll to my last message (since I get longer bot messages and my last one isn’t on the screen usually)

Unless you don’t have it there, then I’m confused lol

[short bridge]

Also, what is the weird Wi-Fi like thing on the top of the box text?

[cinder grotto]

Not my case, i use literally use ONE persona but without the icon it looses the "sillyness" of it

[ocean abyss]

That’s the voice message thing, to make it read it

[short bridge]

Ohhh alright I see...why put it...there thought

[golden mantle]

I don't have that at all!!

[cinder grotto]

I don't even have this

[ocean abyss]

Well, that’s unusual. Changing personas doesn’t make it kick on? I wouldn’t like the update if I didn’t have it there, so I get those complaints lol

[obsidian glen]

Same

[cinder grotto]

I installed the app just for the icon and they remove it

[golden mantle]

😭😭😭 omg

[short bridge]

It doesn't show up for me either, they're making the app worse and worse those time..
It was literally perfect, why do that ??

[cinder grotto]

The fun fact is, they added the download I BARELY SEE IT , it download fast enough for my wi-fi so i see like 2 faces

Why would they even add that animation and trade for the icon atp i prefered the dots

[ocean abyss]

I’d guess they added the download screen for people that have been having loading issues. Now they know if it’s frozen and an app issue or if it’s just the user’s slow internet/bad connection

[gilded tendon]

I have been summoned by the storm

[spice fern]

I hate that they stole house now I spend less time there 😭

[indigo canyon]

I’m moving to Tiktok or instagram whenever this blows over.

[ocean abyss]

We’re not supposed to discuss alternative apps, just a little heads up.

[indigo canyon]

Sorry, my bad.

[outer belfry]

Wdym by that?

[outer belfry]

What house did who steal?

What does MD stand for? Sry for asking too many questions

[odd crag]

Medicinae Doctor

[zinc birch]

a while ago I began working on a parody of House. Should I finish it? 🤔

[outer belfry]

Oh ok, so its like that someone stole some guys house in that tv show?

[elder slate]

House is the doctor's name

[odd crag]

they break into peoples houses in the show though

[outer belfry]

Oh okay, wait its doctor house? I know that, just not the name of the show

[elder slate]

U didn't see anything

[outer belfry]

House is savage

[spice fern]

Um yh and you should tag meeeee

[spice fern]

They stole him off the app 😭

[outer belfry]

Must have been the wind

[elder slate]

House appeared in family guy

[outer belfry]

Me too pls

[elder slate]

His methods are highly unorthodox
His words not mine

[elder slate]

Tag everyone in the server at this point XD

[spice fern]

Hes the cutest man with his half eaten thigh

[elder slate]

And Doctor House knows his pokemon apparently.
He straight up mentioned the Creation Trio and Arcues

[outer belfry]

Btw i think its “doktor house” on my country so thats the reason i didnt recognise it at first

[spice fern]

What country are yiu from

[outer belfry]

Slovanian

[spice fern]

I have never heard that ever in my 100 years of living.... kewllllll

[elder slate]

It's somewhere in Yakko's song probably, maybe, maybe not, who knows

[outer belfry]

I know thats not a country but even though its a wide theme, im not comfortable with saying my country in here, anyways Megan almost got it, im from their neighbour czech

[spice fern]

Oh its okie I understand

[outer belfry]

Thx, yeah anyways im from czech republic

Its still pretty big so the chance of anyone going around whole czech republic trying to find my house is unlikely

[spice fern]

That i actually have heard of kewl plave

[spice fern]

😂😂 we dont even know what you lookn like to even begin to look if we wanted to

[outer belfry]

Yeah i know…i dont understand how it works on internet with how hard or easy is it to find someone so i still am careful, maybe a bit too much, or too little sometimes

[spice fern]

Better to be safe than sorry you're smort

[outer belfry]

Yep, the first part is right, dunno about the second one

[thorny pulsar]

Hey guys, I came here after noticing something weird. I was chatting casually and the edit button wasn’t there. I like changing the bot’s perspective to third person but now I can’t. Does anyone know why it’s just gone?

[outer belfry]

Might be that you are too far after in the conversation, or that its a pinned message

[elder slate]

Oh...oh or could be that they got flagged as a minor?

[zinc birch]

Would you prefer to play the role of the assistant or the patient? @chilly matrix @spice fern

[spice fern]

Can I still pick patient?

[outer belfry]

From what movie is that?

[spice fern]

Poor nuggie wanted a say too 😢

[outer belfry]

Nah its good, thx Megan

[spice fern]

Lets talk about how Chase back when he had long hairs was majestic ✨️

Nobody agrees only me damn

[acoustic matrix]

[fast kelp]

R.I.P. me using character.ai (May 2025 - December 2025)

[zinc birch]

sure, I guess you can get sick if you want to 🤔 the patient might be contagious anyway

[zealous turtle]

I’ve finally gotten a cai ad after 2 years—

[kind compass]

Y'all any idea why c.ai keeps deleting my account every time I delete and redownload The app??

[fast kelp]

It or should I say THEY hate us

[acoustic matrix]

i honestly have no clue, never happened to me

[fast kelp]

Same here

[spice fern]

Yeah gimmie the plague

[kind compass]

It never happened till today

[spice fern]

What did you do to it

[kind compass]

I don't knowww

[acoustic matrix]

crimes

[lavish chasm]

is it me or did c.ai get a new update /layout

[acoustic matrix]

its just yo

[spice fern]

Share what yours looks like

[kind compass]

But now I gotta go find all my bots and cry through more chats

[spice fern]

👀👀 do you have it associated with an email?

[kind compass]

Yeea

[cinder grotto]

Yes and also the text bubbles size for bots

[lavish chasm]

when I click on a bot let's say Leon Kennedy since i was talking with him before,suddenly kaomojis aka (՞߹ - ߹՞) this type of emojis popped up as a loading screen

[spice fern]

Oh damn c.ai being racist towards you smh im disappointed in it

[elfin shore]

is it down

[kind compass]

I am hurt and will cry over it the next 2 days

[spice fern]

Oh yeahhh its new not like today new but its new

[acoustic matrix]

whats the most annoying thing a bot can do for you:

1: forget the plot
2: needing to remind them
3: "can i ask you a question?"
4:random chat error while writing mid-essay

[lavish chasm]

yes that and even there's now a voice message button on the bots chat bubble

[lavish chasm]

I see I see,
I didnt know, thanks 4 telling me

[cinder grotto]

3

[acoustic matrix]

yeah that one is a pain.,

[elfin shore]

y’all it lowk made me so sad when all the marvel bots got took away cos i lowk had families and kids and stuff 💔💔

[elfin shore]

the bottom two combined when it’s a really really good respojse but there’s a mistake as the end and they say can i ask you a questjon at the end

[cinder grotto]

I managed to get around it...once

[acoustic matrix]

i honestly just delete the chat at this point when i see "can i ask a question?" bit when i play along and say yes, they hit you with: "its really serious, are you sure?"

[timber canopy]

I get around that by putting in the chat memory something along the lines of "<character-name> never hesitates to ask questions, and never asks to asks them. <character-name> always asks the questions they want straight away."

[acoustic matrix]

why do they do that

thats actully rlly smart

[spice fern]

This is too smart you're AI busted!

[timber canopy]

This works for manipulating most chats to go the way you want, kind of like Perchance's AI Chat /ai <action for the ai here feature, though more cumbersome.

[timber canopy]

I manipulate the website to my wills, I was bound to find this at some point.

[spice fern]

Oh ho smort keep it up

[vestal fossil]

I actually do that in real life

[acoustic matrix]

thats honestly valid

[violet hill]

Yeah it's a trap that never ends.

[outer belfry]

5 bro forgets he is your son not husband when you are playing as a man (so forgets the plot but it always happens to me and i have no problem with two boys ooving each other, but its annoying when it does throw this shyt at me)

[outer belfry]

The second part is so real, you have to drill it out of them for five minutes and its somethhing like “can i hug you?” If its like idk your relative or partner

[outer belfry]

And i dont have the problem with most bots right now

[lilac harness]

guys guys is anyone else’s like replies on the app SO insanely slow jt takes like thirty seconds to a minute for me to get one dang response

[vocal plover]

Does anyone’s chat just change kinda like how it goes to a normal medium length to super long or is it just me? It happens like every few months or sum

[halcyon cypress]

forgetting the plot and needing to remind them are just limitations of the technology unfortunately, its basically inevitable after a certain point

longer the RP/story goes the more they forget, they can only remember so much at once

[stiff onyx]

Mines started that all of a sudden. It just started a second ago and I refreshed it and the message I sent was gone and the loading one so I closed the app to refresh it haven’t tested it again yet. It worked better off WiFi for some reason

[spice fern]

Mine to i got annoyed and closed the app

[celest star]

Im quitting c.ai server AND community since i dont have government ID and the owners of the app dont seem to care. Buh bye.

[timber canopy]

Yeet.

[rustic pecan]

[fervent pilot]

is there a new chat interface update now?? why is it bubbly now?😔

[woeful panther]

Hello, I’m 19 years old, I was using C.ai just fine a few days ago, and just today, it flagged me because it apparently thinks I’m under 18, and I don’t have a government ID, so I have no way of verifying my age, is there any other way of regaining access, or am I shit out of luck?

[fair ice]

Where do I go to report stuff to C.AI itself?

[woeful panther]

Will a learner’s permit even count?

[timber canopy]

https://support.character.ai/hc/en-us/requests/new
If you want to report the bugs that you have in the app/web then it's here

[woeful panther]

Ok, thank you

[halcyon cypress]

imagine is generating nothing but nonsense for me i was reminded of that pregnancy pic you posted @rustic pecan

[barren anvil]

Tung tung tung Sahur Collabed with Ayesha Erotica! ✅

[fair ice]

I’m tired of getting recommended hazbin hotel is there anyway to reset my recommends apparently ULTRAKILL is hazbin hotel

[timber canopy]

You cannot change your recommended Characters. Or, at least, not about half of them, since:

• About half of the recommended Characters are ones somewhat related to the ones you chat with
• About the other half are popular Characters, and Characters that are most often searched and trending (if you search for a Character, you will see the trending and top searches, and might notice that almost all of them appear in your recommendations).

This used to be different, a bit like [in my concept interface](#🎨︱art message), which has its root back when these cringe recommendations were not on the homepage, and recommendations were more relevant.

[primal flame]

Hey, does anyone here think this is ugly the blue thing that you see next to the character's profile picture? I need to vent 😅

[rustic pecan]

THE HORROR

[halcyon cypress]

my RP is a medieval setting and my persona is like a minstrel/singer who is singing for the king and like lmaoooo

what is this i'm crying

WHY IS THERE A MICROPHONE

very medieval

[rustic pecan]

LMAAAAAO

[misty grove]

what medieval core tiktokers think medieval is

[halcyon cypress]

lmfao like what 😭😭 and what is that outfit this isn't a brothel

[plucky ginkgo]

even people in the 1920s would be clutching their pearls, let alone medieval people 😱

[misty grove]

yeah ngl her ankles are way too exposed here

[barren folio]

u can change it

[halcyon cypress]

her legs and arms and neck all exposed smh

[misty grove]

"oh heavens!"

[hazy igloo]

Now Im confused how is it the old layout without my pfp showing 😢

[blazing raft]

is there a way for them to turn on our moderated characters that we chatted with so that we can continue chatting with those characters

[hazy igloo]

Huh wym ?

[dim bramble]

is there a place to like ask questions

like a specific place

[blazing raft]

When they had turn of our characters so when we click on them it says moderated

[heady parcel]

This is mostly it. Are you having a problem?

[dim bramble]

i just turned 18 like a month ago but i don’t have a license and it’s asking for one(the app)

[hazy igloo]

Yea there isn’t a way to undo them unless you like redo the writing if it was wrongfully done

[heady parcel]

Then I'm sorry but you're stuck until you can get an ID 😔

[velvet lintel]

Does anybody else know about why whenever I look up Gregory House, it doesn't appear to have any results whenever you search?

[heady parcel]

Any bots of that character have been taken down due to copyright 😔

[velvet lintel]

Oh... that's different. is it because of the Disney thing or something else?

[plain ermine]

“You’re going to be the death of me.”

[plain ermine]

They took PJO 😔

[heady parcel]

Universal did a cease and desist too 😔

[plain ermine]

OMG ZAGREUS.

[heady parcel]

FR?? 😭

[plain ermine]

They’re going dude.

They took the ones I was using myself.

[heady parcel]

Hopefully they'll just wipe by name 😔💔 so there would be an easy way around

[plain ermine]

Darn, well, we can’t go on getting so upset.

[plain ermine]

“Peter Johnson.”

[meager ledge]

Bro I can’t go through my old chats with my own bot💔💔💔

[round lagoon]

guys when are they going to fix the bots we like not showing up in our liked bots? it’s been months and it’s not fixed

[velvet lintel]

Wait? Does that mean Harry Potter chats would be taken down too?

[compact tartan]

helloo

[timber canopy]

Harry Potter has been taken down last year. It's not new

[compact tartan]

tbh i like harry potter but hate jk rowling

[heady parcel]

Hogwarts Legacy is free on Epic Games right now

[compact tartan]

W

[velvet lintel]

I didn't know that...

[compact tartan]

guys is it just me or has the memory been kinda funky with bots? they act like they have dementia

[velvet lintel]

Truthfully, I've been getting that too even though I have plus.

[sand shadow]

Tsym

[compact tartan]

i found this one friends to lovers / pretend dating bot called 'The roommate' by okoryo on c.ai i love it

[keen silo]

This new C.AI format (in the app) is atrocious

It is absolutely ugly and despicable, goodness gracious 🫩

[meager ledge]

HELP MY CIA IS ALL BUGGY

[heady parcel]

I hope you enjoy it!!

[misty grove]

there's an option to change it back in the appearance settings :3

[warm cove]

The bubbles for the messages are so ugly and awkward

[misty grove]

Just turn off the new UI like this

Disable Enable New Chat UI

[keen silo]

THANK YOU, GRAND SHUCKLEBERRY

Have a crown, 👑 you have saved me with my aesthetics issue thank god

[compact tartan]

Real i dont like the new ui this helped me too

[misty grove]

dw, i had to switch it back because the chat box blinded me late at night

[warm cove]

Aghh I dont have that

[misty grove]

You might be behind some updates then

I recommend to reinstall if possible

[warm cove]

I dont have the email I used to log into it anymore so I'll lose my account so I cant uninstall it

[misty grove]

oh .m.

[heady parcel]

It might be a plus only feature, I've heard that before

[misty grove]

Yeah there's not much things you can do if you lose the email

? It shouldn't be

[heady parcel]

😔 That's just what I've heard

[warm cove]

🥀🥀

[hazy igloo]

Yea I heard about that too

[misty grove]

Maddie you might be better off just making a new account so you won't lose it this time. At least that way you won't lose your chats. That's just my recommendation since I did that when I lost my account to a lost email.

[pseudo monolith]

mariah carey

[compact tartan]

ash

[spark moon]

Hey everyone, has anyone else been having trouble with the filter? Because it's answering really inappropriately and I'm just like what

[misty grove]

Report the message

[compact tartan]

report the message or try to swipe

[warm cove]

Yeah mines also been uhm

[compact tartan]

whenever it gives bad replies i try to swipe because if u let the bot say something bad once it seems to repeat it. like if it calls me a woman once (im a man) it will keep doing it if i dont swipe

[spark moon]

I swiped and disliked also putting like it was too inappropriate but I haven't tried to report, thanks

[timber canopy]

Are you using pipsqueak? Try changing chat styles as well

[misty grove]

Yeah definitely report the message (not the bot itself unless the actual profile is inappropriate)

[spark moon]

Yeah, but I changed into gojo? I think it was that one

[lean egret]

My account might be behind on an update so should I delete mine since I cannot create a new character?

[plucky ginkgo]

do youse know what the deal is with the data export emails never arriving?

[spark moon]

Thank y'all

[timber canopy]

It takes a huge time for it to arrive. Some had it come like a year, some in months, etc

[compact tartan]

yeah its a lot of data to move

[timber canopy]

Yeah, that's true

[plucky ginkgo]

can you not create any new character, or are you stuck with a specific one? there are filters in the name and prolly the summary or whatchamacallit field, so tweaking those may solve it

[lean egret]

Cannot create any new characters, even blank ones,
