That shit was talking on 100% volume despite me having the whole phone at 0%
Right? Always talking volume at the most embarrassing times x)
weh
Bro i love the call feature so much its so funny
why does my screen keep having a slowdown popup
I also just like giggling when the characters voice starts bugging out
Calls feel awkward in c.ai idk why
Agreed
On discord or C.Ai?
Guys idk I think its the best feature they have ever made its so funny
Can be fun, but nor for me, I guess. It's kinda cringe how it says in a monotone voice Character moved closer to you, closing the gap between your bodies. "Can I ask you a question?" Char asked in a gentle, quiet, hesitant tone.
But sometimes they randomly talk over me and i have to repeat shut up like 50 times
wait how did you copy them so perfectly
when they say "can i ask you a question?" i just tape their mouths shut
Anyone else having problems with personas? It wonāt let me select any of mine.
I mean, I'm not a "only dialogue" guy. I like to describe the general mood, the scene my persona and the character are in and blah-blah-blah, and all of that with the call function doesn't really work out for me
I can't scroll through the bot's reply because it takes a long time to load even though I have internet access, and it only works when I completely delete the reply so it can write a new one. Any idea why that might be the case?
I had this problem a few months ago but it went away on its own, I guess itās just the app lagging sometimes
Okay thanks
The apps been really buggy recently actually
Itās been alright for me personally, didnāt have bugs recently
if its the servers messing up again i wouldnt be surprised
Jesus christ I've been getting chatgpt esque responses on pipsqueak for the last one hour
Does anyone know a good all girls school bot where youāre also a girl?
Itās like half the bots I find are either bad or they make you a boy for no reason
i think you might have to type up a combination of words on the search bar to find what you're looking for
example: "all girls school girl user"
at least that's my method of finding which bots to mess around with
The only bot about school I used was a religious one with a priest who suddenly decided that seducing a demoness is a better idea than letting her stay on her newly found way to God
Let me think...
not the craziest thing i heard on the app so far
Ngl that was too realistic, I really hoped for a good tutor for my demoness persona and then the dude calls me in his office
in his office? for what?
I don't really want to elaborate, not because it's bad but because I don't wanna get an accident time-out because of my wording
its okay, my wording can sometimes be taken the wrong way too
that's why i take a little while to respond
Anyone else having really slow chats?
What is the new ceo on ššš
Why did they remove the blue??? Why is it now red or gray? ššš
THE BLUE WAS A SIGNIFICANT PART OF THE LAYOUT š
Nope
You can change it I think in accessibility
go to your accessibility settings and you can change it
And they changed it to grey because people have been complaining that the blue was eye straining
THABK U CHAT
hi
i get that. the blue is eye straining, especially after a while. i changed it to grey when the option first came out on the app š¤·
Iāve put a darker blue personnaly, the regular one was too bright
does anyone know what happened to the saved chats option? i cant switch my current chat for a different one i had saved
ahhh okay thank you! sorry these new updates are confusing me
Dw 
click on your pfp in a chat and then history, top row in the middle
anyways, does somebody know how to turn off a persona for a chat? i feel like i've tried everything and it just doesn't seem to be an option, but maybe i'm missing something
I don't think u can
I guess start a new chat from a point and remove the persona chosen? Iāve never really used the feature
as somoene who doesn't use personas you can't, the only way to do that is select a blank persona
You can deselect it on the website, but I don't really understand why there is a need when you can just make a default persona that matches your username, if that's the name you want to use
i shouldn't have to make a default persona with my username when that's basically already a built-in option
Fair enough, it does beg the question of what a user's Display Name is for if it doesn't get displayed in chats
yeah. for now i went to the website and deselected it from there, but i truly do hope we get the feature back on the app
Well, now there is a pop-up thing about cruising in slow mode in the web version
if you don't mind me asking, is there a reason why you don't want a persona with your chats?
because i don't use personas enough to have one for every single chat. i mainly use personas for specific scenarios/roleplays
Can't you set a default persona with your Username/Bio for chats that don't need it, instead of trying to deselect one?
Sorry, not coming out as rude or anything
Just geniunely curious
.
Just make a persona, go off it, then go back on it and delete the persona
This slow mode is brutaaaaaal omg, I've been waiting for a reply for nearly 1 minute now š
Try refreshing your chat
i went to the website and turned it off there. which honestly, i also shouldn't have to do.

Issa Meeee Maarriooooo~
idk maybe i sound spoiled, but it's just inconvenient that they removed it from the app
get that creature away from me
I understand. I was trying for ages to delete a persona yesterday. Itās not spoilt. It is a bit annoying sometimes
i want the old UI back 
Meow is acrualy good.
Is it acrualy?
SHUT UP DONT EVEN GO THERE
Actualym
Actualy
Actually?
This doesn't look right
Guys questions why donāt I get notifications from cai anymore?
This one, lmao
You have the power to check
Thanks))
Hey chat can someone please please answer me! Is the search button buggy or broken?
Don't be afraid to use Google Assistant or Siri to check for spelling
I do that all the time
Mine is fine. Whatās up with yours?
Goodnight, lol
Well It's no longer sorted by most used bots to lower the ranking, and I've already adjusted it.
All hail the word suggestion thing in my phone
I see. Thatās strange. Maybe reload and check if it works again?
Remembering both half of the english dictionary and me hitting wrong buttons
I already tried everything and I've have this chat error bug for weeks.
why does it smell like bacon in here?
I have the chat error bug too. And the image generator bug where it says it goes against guidelines when nothing bad is happening
So anoyinng
Istg we dont need age verification, and we dont need ads
Lol, I thought that emoji next to your nickname was the "š¤®" all this time
We actually do but no one is ready for that debate
I mean uk government wise
Every government wise enough will put age restrictions on things needed
AI is one of them
I mean, thereās worse stuff going on here than age verification and ads 
Age restrictions and ID verification. We already have AI frauds thanks to SORA and things like that. It's only a matter of time for everything AI to be under the "give me your ID or go away" wall
Just because worse stuff are happening doesnāt mean little things shouldnāt be managed and left unchecked
LOL
though i'd put that emoji next to my name if it was april fools day
or during april
Whatttt? Iām saying thereās worse happening, so ads and age verification is no big deal 
-# I see someone here named Aymee
tbf a lot of stuff is already like that
-# Ah, I must be imagining then
Sorry misunderstood, English aināt my first language. Sorry if I came off as anything but respectful 
roblox asking for my id and face to use chat
so now i have to use a GMOD model to do the work for me
AYMEE, how are you now?
roblox was banned in my country, so I don't have to do that lol
Nooo! You werenāt disrespectful at all. I get it honestly 
True that
Much better now! Thanks for asking. I still havenāt had my wisdom teeth removed though so that sucks 
What about you?
lucky you, US players like me are treated like in the 1984 george orwell book
All of us are in the 1984 now I guess, just different variations of it
true..
I am good! Thanks for asking.
-# I can be gentle with removing it.. 
at least i can still dress up as an alien girl ingame
Enough with the biting Ma'am 
Iāll take them out myself if they donāt hurry up. Iām so over it 
I do have a question real quick, charms are useless for C.AI+ users?
I think so, yes. I have 500 of them and have no idea what theyāre meant for
Ah thought so, I keep getting notifs about charms but nowhere to spend them 
I didn't even knew those were added until some people started whining about them
Collect them anyway. If you ever need a break financially from paying for plus, youāll have charms to fall back on
i feel like charms are kind of useless even as a non-c.ai+ user
True that
What can you even do with them?
So the memories feature is being fixed?
Use a hammer, it could work
I- or take out the rest of them, or me?!
same, i didnt know i was collecting them too
skip ads with an ad free pass (for 1 hour), boost through slow mode, and unlimited imagine
^^
Okay okay, seems cool tbh but I guess you go through them quickly
No idea tbh
I'll count days from now until the moment the devs will add daily quests lol
Already are I think
It's okay to be without teeth 
Oh shit they already did.
wouldn't be surprised if they add a battlepass too
Weekly sorry, not daily
Check the status, they said memory box so I think?
And I completed 4/6 without even knowing
What a win
W
What the hell is an intro video for characters?
My cat is saying hi to you by biting my hair. Say hi back 
No idea, I was waiting for someone to ask tbf x)
Hi cat 
Jesus Christ, they added tik-tok here. Tik-tok for AI images
oof, i just got timed out
I thought it was more like pinterest when I checked it on the web. But in the app it's literally tik-tok
So you go on to your characters profile and it says āadd intro videoā, and then it destroys your characters picture with a bad version 
How in the hell I supposed to post in feed?
Imagine chat/image generator
So I can't post in the feed... from the feed?
Why what is wrong?
I donāt think so? I think you can only do it when you make an image, a video, or an imagine chat conversation
Click on the three dots on your character and on share, you can post on feed that way
i hope they fix issues with vpns so i can actually make new chats and use personas
Whats Vpns?
having to disconnect and then reconnect to your vpn to talk to a character is starting to peeve me
And what is wrong with the memorie?
^^ it's also useful for being able to watch content that isn't available in your country
Ahhh okay thx ^^
@carmine lotus @wise verge thanks for the help, I butchered my character with these new functions for free stuff 
Np, hope the damages can be fixed x)
fix them with bandaid!
With binary bandaids!
"Imagine 2 Chat Images" bro I'm doing it every time I chat, I imagine shit
Youāre welcome, and I hope youāre able to fix them, lol
imaginary's good for c.ai
At least these quests aren't like "enter another app, reach 15 lvl and get 500 free stuff here"
oh i hate those kinds of quests
That was a thing with disney's attempt to make their own Clash of Clans but in Star Wars universe
wait really?
Yup. They had those quests. And the app is closed now cuz' idk, Disney being Disney
sorry to interrupt qwq
anyone else have a problem with the personas? I opened a new bot and I just don't know where to find my personas because I gotta switch š
click on your pfp to the left side of your textbox
Yeah we're all having problems
Guys questions why donāt I get notifications from cai anymore?
You asked that earlier or am I going crazy?
mariah carey
Ur going crazy
Enable them in your privacy settings?
Katseye
Ty Ty Ty
Maybe because your on dnd that's why you get no notifs
Np 
U don't have the small round persona Symbol an the left Down side from your chat?
It's different for mobile and web
Your Web?
Always.
woof
Okay, wait I'll look for you

The three ... up in the right
Is roar fixed?
Oh yaeh I see it
ā¤ļø
whats up
Why does the bot fast forward...
what do you mean? 
Um, guys, I need some help...
After the last update, the gear icon disappeared from the interface. How choose the character story you want (after 'new chat from here')?
It skips narrative transitions and basically teleports my OC & her gf to the destination, w/o my permission
Sorry, what do you mean gear icon?
Sorry, I got it wrong (I double-checked from an old screenshot) š
Clicking on a character's avatar previously opened an additional menu, I meant this
click on your own pfp to the left side of your textbox in a chat
Ah, it's moved to the lower left, with your PFP
Oops, yes, you are right
I thought this tab was only needed for personas and generating photos...
šµāš«
Thx, anyway
Character AI isn't working at all on my Mac in Chrome. At first, it just never finished loading, but I tried clearing cookies and now it signed me out (expectedly), but now I can't sign back in. Tried through my email as well as w/ google to no effect.
Some countries have been experiencing C.Ai going down, might be your case
There's nothing but short, bland responses on every chat style... 
@harsh shoal
USA too?
No idea, I donāt have the list tbh
But your problem sounds like one people have been having all week
I guess it might be possible that it's regional beyond just national level, ugh
Maybe
What's the difference between Roar and Pipsqueak?
right now? nothing... they all sound the same and all have the same short replies or replies that get cut off
Hi chat
Pipsqueak is very bugged, the only model i know of to be bugged but i could be wrong. Uhh.. I think pipsqueak was meant to be more adult, and roar is meant to be quick and smart
im not sure
roar is also bugged
Pipsqueak looks for me like a more daring, creative and weird style than the others
y'all bots be sending like symbols, numbers, and even youtube links idk if it's a bug but i'm kinda creeped out šš
Never had that in my entire life two-three years of using cai
oh shii
How good are their youtube recommendations?
I'm honestly so pissed off about this quality problem... especially since I'm paying for cai+ which is supposed to be better with memory and reply quality...
like, I've been VERY patient... clearly too patient
the link doesn't even openš
It can be bad and still be better 
It used to be better.
You can submit feedback here to make sure they know about your particular problem: https://support.character.ai/hc/en-us/requests/new?ticket_form_id=25361902038171
I've done that over a week ago, and even reached out directly to a mod to get it bumped up to the dev team (and yes, I was being very patient and polite when I did this)
This is why I use Nyan.
Im having an issue with the new menus that i cant turn off my personas. It forces me to always pick one and doesnt allow to just disable them. Does anyone know a fix?
Create a persona, go back to your chat, go back to that persona, delete it
Then you shouldnāt have a persona anymore
I think itās to do with the imagine generators
Sorry to interrupt your question but I'm also having an issue - I can't turn on or change my personas, neither on the app or on the web TwT
Why don't you link your discord and c.ai so that you can gain access to the plus support channel?
omg I feel like a dumbass now... I didn't know that existed and I have no idea where it is
you have to do it on web, not the app, but if you go to settings, then join the community (discord), it'll say link account
Outage?
nope
Ah good. Just had an error.
Also you're not a dumbass for that, c.ai does a shitty job of explaining anything. Even I didn't know for a long time
it says I need a verified email or phone number
I'm guessing that's on discord
huh??? That's weird
Change passwords or delete it altogether if you think other infos are compromised
You sure you logged into the right discord account?
yeah, especially since my email on discord is verified (and yeah I only have one account and it's this one)
Don't know which channel to ask, so Iāll use this one:
How do I find āHistoryā and āChat Styleā in this new UI? I can't seem to find them anymore, and they were usually right there when I tapped the character icon.
click on your pfp on the left side of your textbox, there you'll find history in the calendar-looking thing and chat styles in the prism thing
I see it. Thanks š
Go on Gmail and change the password here, if it was your email that was hacked. Make sure no other informations were compromised such as bank account and all
When were you hacked?
I have no idea unfortunately, my only guess would be to delete account and make another
Might be a good idea to delete the app and reinstall
changing your email password won't kick you out of your cai account
I don't know if logging out of cai will kick them out either
@harsh shoal Hi š Do you know if logging out of your CAI account will kick out anyone else who may be logged into it?

Is there any way this fellow above could log out anyone who is logged into his account?
I mean this might since itās not the same password anymore, the person wonāt be able to log back in
I would not expect deleting the app to have an effect
Iām trying to find solutions x)
I understand š
hey i have a question why does the function on character ai, like the one where you can send pictures to the bots like NEVER work?
Were you hacked by somebody who knows you? I ask because if not, I would guess they won't care to look at your CAI account
soooo, all good now? Or not?
Tell your parents
@hot ridge I was able to sign in to the ca+ server! thanks for the help!
mariah carey

When you lowkey cook a message up but the bot WANTS you to answer to the 5 lines message they cooked
hi :DD
@sturdy tiger heyhi! (Putting this in here cause the general chats will get so clogged up so quick) I don't accept random frqs, mind telling me what you need?
gen 2 is pretty dead rn
I tend to stay out of them they hurt my head š
nothing really :^ just trying to make friends around here
Ohh! You could've sent me a dm request instead š
better than gen 1's chaos
This is a big server and many people decline friend requests because of scam accounts
personally i have dms off
wait werent u the jax person im tryna remmber
uhh no sorry š
mwuahwaua itās just that some people donāt like to DM right away
agree lol i have my dms off most of the time
@rich stream sorry i mixed u two up my amnesia mb š genuine
I have my dms on for the pure purpose of people needing to reach out, frqs I just decline unless we have mutuals
My dms are only on for people who friend me, but I also decline friend requests from people under 18 and people who don't have their age anywhere findable
i personally dont friend people above 18 unless ive known them for years and know they are safe or if theyre in my dni
i meant above 18/adults ugh typo
Help that's okay š

understandable
call that a freudian slip
i dont feel comfortable being friended with people under 18 unless i've known them for a while either
Personal preference, your boundries matter above all though š

yeah

i forgor what i was gonna say uh people keep saying roar is bugged, i was curious what other ppl think
cause i thought only pipsqueak was bugged so im confused
i use ds 
Tbh I don't use roar much, but the chat styles have definitely been buggy the last week or more
all chat styles are bugged according to what people say here
yeah fr
š off topic i realized discord makes you do a captcha to friend people when i tried to friend my friend nikki wtf
They do that now?? š
I've never had to do that
its weird i googled it and it means discord thinks im a bot or that ive sent too many friend requests/server joins.. but thats weird cause my account standing says im all good
It might do that sometimes if you frequently add people so often? Idk cause it never did that to me š
All the free ones apparently.
o h
I use Nyan for the most part I like it sometimes I have problems with it, but itās all right.
some say the paid ones are also bugged
i know the squeak models are bugged i think
but i dont have c.ai plus i just have discord role from kappa so ive never used paid models
PS is working fine for me
my ds is fine for once
well I donāt know if fine means the bot stops making long messages but
-# the special non-plus member
How do you have plus next to your name and you donāt have plus
The amount of long messages I get nowadays decreased even with PS or Roar n stuff
because kappa handed out punishments and gave Ash the plus role to torment him

Lmaoo I see
Wait, how was getting plus role a punishment 
i just explained
basically there was a harassment drama and me and john dalton got temp c.ai plus discord role from kappa
Honestly who knows
OH
š š
mhm
I see
I didnāt realise we were writing a book?
Was there another purge of certain characters? Just curious
Is it just me or do the bots no longer have the memory box when you click on 'new chat'? I don't know if it's just for me or if it's for everyone.
I reported this and so far nothing
Or the word trader
I saw it in the status and they talked about it on the 8th, and it's already the 10th. I had a lot of memories on the bots I use.
How fo I make the bot progress the story and action, and not make it jibber-jabber-yippy-yapper with just talking?
What do u mean?
I know disney's been copyrighted for a while
I have my memory box
I call it my brain
Okay I'm really scared right now
It's getting worse
It's messed up my persona
And all its wrote is I love you
so
Can the bot change your personas stuff?
yeah
It can????
yeah they can hack into your account
For me, I don't have it.
Should I change my password again šā¹ļø
yeah you should
..are we sure Monika didn't take control of your device š
This bot won't frickin' listen to my OOC...
Sometimes they don't, literally. You're better off editing the message (in my experience) 
The bot is based on a system that uses statistics to guess which word is most likely to come next in a document. It can't change your persona, but it can guess that the word most likely to come next is something that contradicts your persona.
Wait hol up I'm too dumb
So the bot can't change anything on the persona description???
šØ
It can't go in there and edit it like you can. It can ignore it during the roleplay though
Can it delete personas btw??
No
Why would cai devs give the bot such abilities?
It could be funny /j
Damn it I think I've been hacked and someone's been trying to troll me
Every time I see you I wanna read your name as Warband
as in m&b warband
Change your email password
The thing is I have done that and I even deleted my previous c.ai account since it had the same issue that I'm dealing with now (but not this extreme)
Hehehe, I found that if you want a bot to stop being angry and abusive and shii (especially if u use pipsqueak) just say āim pregnantā. Tried it with a male persona, immediately the bot was like ābut youāre a male?ā And Iām like āor am I?..āā
got Vsauce'd
G- what?
One youtuber with a nickname Vsauce starts most of his videos with "Blah-blah-blah... Or is it?/Or am I?" thing
Ohš I got it from a friend lol
It sounds like they still have access to your email account, unless you deleted your CAI account before you changed your email password, or if your email account didn't force you to log back in after you changed its password
I changed my email immediately when I deleted my previous c.ai account
And if this person did have access too my old c.ai account I wouldn't be using it as I'm on the new one linked with a different email
so like are the models fixed or are they all like pipsqueak
ok bb
Not yet unfortunately
Is here ok to ask for advice on making characters. I really just need help with name and personality
You can swipe and edit I think
š
Theyāre not seem to be that good at fighting. I always win over them or theyāre letting me win. I donāt know which it is.
š§š»āāļø
~ Also if I want my story to hurry along, can I just time jump like just write in that some time went by?
š
yeah
Here is a good place. #1301193162265722900 is also a good place.
Okay
good luck 
Sometimes when things progress really slowly, I just want some time to go by so it hurries up.
Ok thanks
It always seems to happen when the bot gets cocky 
How do I post images?
Ikr?! Like wtf
It doesnāt even know how to fight
They suck
I sense a deja vu pattern 
You have options. If you have CAI+, I think you can post here. If not, you can post them in #1301193162265722900. You may need to link your CAI and Discord accounts first. You can do so on the CAI website by finding the "Go to community" button in your settings.
The thread said read only though
You need the character creator role ^^
You can get it at #š„ļø±self-roles
Thanks
better train them hard, then
unless they're bad at learning too
imma be honest
ok
??
no idea at all
Smh
it boosts my fragile ego
š„¹
But winning all the time itās so boring
Like at least put up a fight or something
š§š»āāļø
Real shit
Mhmm
At that point I give up and I timeskip
Iām about to time skip as well
Lol
Put it in the fuckit bucket and just write about time passing by
If you want more of a challenge, maybe you could put in your persona that you have a tendency to be distrusted and defeated? š¤
No?
mariah carey
Free Palestine
sometimes you have to lead them onto it, but it's also dependent on the bot
some bots I've used actually know how to fight in a scenario while others just kinda... stand still and watch
Right, I do though. Set them up first.
Not that they stand still itās like all they do is charge at me which gives me time to dodge it and itās just like thatās all that they do like you donāt do anything else?
š§
like bro he's looking at someone advancing in stance with a cavalry sabre why is bro standing still and having 900 feelings instead of taking stance as well
Or like sometimes they stand there, and I just knock them to the ground
I tried to set them up first you know maybe Iāll give them a chance to do something, but they donāt do nothing and then I do something knocking their block off and then they donāt really do anything. They get up and might try again and itās just like they suck.
oh then it's probably the bot being made that way
I feel like with some of the bots I get a different bot every time I refresh the app or refresh even the chat and itās just like I feel like Iāve dealt with different bots over the course of time of this character and itās just so frustrating..
like why am I getting this bot Who says theyāre new at RP when Iāve dealt with other bots who were better at this who could say more.. Their paragraphs were better along with their grammar and now this one that Iām dealing with sucks.
lack of algorithm has its downsides
Seems like this character is just getting different bots every time I do something. Or like when I swipe it seems like theyāre different when I swipe..
Yeah.
Guys, have they fixed the chat styles yet?
No T-T
Let's avoid skipping ya. What u have in mind?
Damn, trying to be patient as I can, but damn
But roar is getting better tho. I've been using it for an hour, and with a little bit of swiping you can make it work
Okay, so I think they're slowly fixing it
free palestine
can someone help me i cant find any she-ra princess of power bots , like any its super weird
probably got sniped
pretty much 90% of television programs/series related bots were taken down to comply with regulations and claims
Just about every ai: obsessed with wrists and calling people idiot despite it being completely out of character for said character
What happened to them??
Lmaoo
Most of them are acting like pipsqueak
PS rn is genuinely so bad
Might just be me tho???
Or worse grabs your chin "look at me." Like oml do I gotta swipe till it stops?
Iāve been swiping lately too just because I donāt like the replies.
What style are you guys using? Itās been so frustrating using the app lately
Mostly Roar
I like roar
Right?????? I knew I wasnāt crazy
Even then, sometimes you gotta keep swiping because recently I swiped too many times and then it started asking me why I swiped too many times and then ask me if I wanted to end the chat early
š§š»āāļø
Sometimes it's absolutely fantastic for several replies and then it's like 0-0 why
Yeah š
Everytime I just forward the message, it responses to a nonexistent text I never sent
I just swipe till I find a reply I like.
I once had a Neji bot suddenly reply in Russian of all things I went and translated it for fun and it wasn't even about the conversation š
Guys does anyone know how to delete chats in C.aiš
You can rewind to the beginning and then delete the first message, at least on the website
Sadly you canāt but you can archive
Honestly I feel like deleting the app because the quality of the chats in general has been degrading for the past months (mind u, Iāve been a user since early c.ai), itās nearly unusable now and the devs wonāt do anything abt it, probably locking a better service under a paywall ://
How do I do that?
Odd
Aye and even with the paid for (I've tried it to see) it's better but not great
it's been dogshit even with cai+ and the devs not doing anything about it has been pissing me off big time
Are you new or sm?
Yep
Third or fourth day since the bug for me
hello!
What's up
Wow, somehow that makes it worst. honestly Iām not even surprised, theyāve always been unresponsive to the communities comments
I only do Ai at this point because most of my actual role play sites are way to toxic or dead š
Use Google to find out
Tbh facts
i dont have c.ai plus but i think the app is fairly good for free users. i mean... other apps give you ads and message limits and low quality. c.ai on web, you don't have ads or message limits and you can get half decent quality. but there have been a lot of bugs so i understand c.ai hasn't been as good
sorry yapping
i dont have c.ai plus i just have a discord role from kappa
Ok thanks for the advice
not yapping, I love this topic lol. And yes, c.ai is a decent enough app. specially because out of every other ai options so far, it has always been the most consistent and unlimited. then again, as someone who has used the app ever since itās beginning, I can tell you the downgrade itās no joke, atp Iād prefer a million ads but having a good time during the usage over zero restrictions but the app being unusable
Yeah I've used it since 2023
I think it's a better option but it's been riddled with bugs. But i think in beta it was quite shitty, then it got good, and then now in recent months/year, its been quite buggy
thats my take
Guys, I hope this gets fixed tomorrow or next week or so
like i think 2022-2023 it was still developing not great yet, then 2024-early 2025? i really enjoyed it and had good quality, but i feel like since then its been loads of bugs
I feel like we're being lied to while we all scream at a brick wall hoping someone will listen and actually do something
I rarely get angry btw, but this... this has made me angry.
Yeah, in beta it was shit, then it got good, as good as it could ever get tbh (I used roar pre-PS and it was actually quite decent) but this year has been nothing but bug after bug after bug, the thing that frustrates me the most out of all of this is the lack of communication and transparency from devs,
we hope, a dream is a dream lol:((
Like, idk I'm trying my best to wait, I already sent a ticket when it first started, been like a day or two already
LMAOO
Tomorrow be the third day
Yeah, and I really donāt understand the lack of transparency from devs. if youāre an app developer wouldnāt it be your best interest to hear the complaints and feedback from your own community? You really hit the nail on the head with āscreaming at a brick wallā
Hadnāt seen your pfp, W kubz scouts watcher loll
yeahhhh⦠sadly
CAIs communication has always been mind-boggling to me. It's like they actively try and AVOID communication 
Thank you, I like your pfp too :D
ik right?
I'm shocked they were even as transparent as they were about archiving old chats tbh
When they decide to feed us information, it's like we're eating scraps HAHA
Sighhhh sounds like Iāll have to get a new hobby at this point lol, cai just hasnāt been doing it for me lately
They communicate a bit but they are very selective because they have work to do and their users are people who like to talk a lot. They also know that every time they communicate with the users, it creates a new opportunity to be misunderstood š
[e.g. new material for the rumor mill]
(At least, I imagine those are some of the reasons)
Work to do, changes like nothing at all. IMO
Because, for most apps and etcetc, they just.. have a social media manager who posts the information
The only reason thereās opportunities for them to be misunderstood is because they genuinely donāt know how to communicate, and I understand the work overload but theyāre a huge company, surely there must be someone running their social media platforms etc
yeahyeah
Aweee thanks!
I forgot I had a question.
My app finally updated and I have the new UI, HOWEVER, the loading screen when you open a chat and it flashes all of the emoticons really messes me up since it moves really fast.
Is there anyway to turn that off?
in the settings in the accessibility thing
for some reason the character im talking to wont speak while the text is another language which is strange to me because ive never had this issue
it'd always work fine whenever i wanted the voice spekaing another language than english
but now its only reading the english messages
which is weird
any thoughts?
Hello, sorry if this isn't in the right chat, but how am I supposed to restore a subscription?
tap get c.ai+ at the top if you use the app, and then there's something that will say restore
there should be a restore button, that or you might be able to do it from your app store
do you guys still use pipsqueak?
i do but iām waiting for it to work properly again.
only for extensive roleplaying, not for casual roleplay or chat
is it broken? i always use pip since roar seems too short and the rest just donāt hit somehow. pipsqueak is the neutral sort of ground as of rn
for me, it has been broken for a few days now. however, i havenāt been on it since it broke so it could be fixed by now.
I'm not a fan tbh, I prefer roar and soft launch
i used to use roar actually. but ever since i started using pipsqueak, it just works better for me.
part of me is loyal to pipsqueak because im desperately hoping one day ill strike the jackpot and get a super long response like it did months before lol š
understandable. if itās broken, hopefully it gets fixed soon.
HOPEFULLY (i donāt think it will for a long time ā¹ļø) but i think pip is sorta okay rn. nothing special but it works fine i donāt see any repetition
thatās definitely great to know, maybe iāll try using it again tomorrow to see how itās working for me. my problem with it was it would start out good, then completely fall off towards the end.
i wonder if deepsqueak is any better! i wonder if cai+ is actually worth it
i wonder too. you should ask people & get different perspectives.
for me it's good right now, it's not what it was at its start and has degraded since, but it's okay enough
i get long messages again godbless
thatās awesome.
for pip ?? omg there is hooooooopeeeeeee ššššš
I think Millie uses DeepSqueak
NOSE
yeah, she seemed to be talking about deep squeak.
mariah carey
Am I the only one who can't get new chats-
i mean you mentioned deepsqueak in your message so i answered about deepsqueak
pls how do you unequip a persona or is it just me
You can't
Like wdym unequip
Just make a blank one for now
like when I use a persona im stuck with using it
known thing
Can't you switch to a new one
I can
Iāve been doing this for awhile
My website dose not work and I made a new account any way I can get help?
I canāt view my old chats anymore
Same
Dang
Nevermind when you chat click the little human on the bottom right and it will show
Deepsqueak knew what I was gonna do next; make a beeline for the nearest body of water and turn into a mermaid to runāswimāaway from the Yanderes ššš
Is anyone else having that problem where the ads glitch out and you canāt click off of them making you have to close and reopen the app? I thought they fixed it a few updates ago?
i cant say anything bc i dont get ads on web and i dont use the app version š¤·āāļø
it always throws me off whenever I create a bot with my favorite media for myself and donāt code in a smaller character to save time bcuz the roleplay doesnāt need them and the bot still mentioned that character in chat. like. youāre not supposed to mention that character. lmao. the roleplay doesnāt even involve them.
it was worth it for a while at its peak during 2022-2023. it doesnāt really matter anymore unless you want funky colored chats and no ads.
ah, okay. i see. i donāt have c.ai+ but i use web so i donāt get the ads regardless.
yeah. even with the payment you canāt get past the age verification, and then I just kinda gave up with c.ai+. I donāt feel safe giving any ID towards AI.
this makes sense. thatās very weird though.
right?? but idm too much. they were ruining their app anyways
Does anyone know if the cai app is down? I try to open it but itās just loading and not putting me in, is it a bug?
Can y'all suggest a bot, everything is boring
I tried to make something unusual here: #1456952966824071288 message
Hey, Iām on the mobile app and use it for free- I guess they updated it recently I canāt figure out how to view my previous chats with a bot after starting a new chat, like whereās the history button??
There's a picture of your pfp next to where you type. Press it
Okay gotcha
There are a lot of tickets submitted weekly, they canāt treat everything all at once
Dw, theyāll either do it in the month or a bit longer
Mine took at least 5 months to be acknowledged tbf x)
If it's something you need fixed that is specific to your account then you can ping a mod with your ticket number and politely ask if they can try to expedite it for you
Thanks for the suggestion!
witchcraft
Hey everyone, is my phone just buggy or does character ai just sometimes close by itself? :]
It's been three days during which all the answers are cut off or too short, it's so annoying š„²
i'm blaming the weekend traffic rn
It's because it was a big update it will be back to normal soon
I wonder about that's too I'm curious @zinc birch
whered my message go.
Is anyone else voice selections glitched like when you wanna go pick a voice for a character you canāt hear anything??
Hey like is there cai plus free trial available like if i buy the subscription i can cancel within that free trial period i js wanna see if the premium is worth it or not
I think thereās two weeks or something but Iām not sure at all
Might try to look up with mods
Oh okay thanks
waking up at 6am so i can RP
there's no free trial unfortunately
but you can just buy it for one month and then cancel if you don't like it
Oh ya ill do that
honestly id say overall its worth it but recently the plus chat models have not been as good as usual. but hopefully they fix them soon š
Welll ill take ur word on it thankss
okay
I need HEELPPPP.....
I have good ass quality and ill try again except on my other phone to verify for the thing. I LITERALLY did my face and gave the most CLEAREST picture of my drivers license
c.ai..... Won't let me verify...
c.ai broo
Why is there this limit guys how can I remove it?
I think its a limit for kids
Bro I am not a kid
and you can remove it by verifying your 18
Okay
How can I verify?
Give me a tutorial pls
go to settings (on character ai) and scroll sideways (if you dont see it) and press advanced
Okay
I only saw delete account
ok hold on
Its with delete account. ontop of it you should see verify age
If you can still talk to bots, it hasnt really happened yet
I deleted my acct and did it again
Guys I think thereās something wrong with my bot š I canāt find the edit button for some reason, Iāve shut off the app and opened it again but itās still not there
Has it classed you as underage
On some bots and chats canāt edit for some reasons, happens to me and Iām 18+. Sometimes I canāt edit a chat and sometimes I can on the same bot
Sometimes the edit button glitches. Especially if you've came to 30 swipes.
Yep, figured that was it dw. Happens all the time
how do I add character definitions? I donāt see it anywhere
only description and greeting
On the web you need to click on More options
Wheres that?
It's near the bottom of the form
I don't know why it's all the way down there, but that's where it is
oh I see, thank you
how do definitions work? Are they events the bot will reference or a guide on how to act in situations?
Mostly, the latter. There, you usually write how the character looks like, behaves, and maybe describe a bit of the world itself or connections they could possibly have if the character in question was released recently in their respective game/universe.
so I write in plain text? I thought it was for example dialogue like {{char}}: example
You can use those too. I like to use both
Whats an example of using both?
You can either write in plain text or "code" like some people like to do, something like this. [cool] + [nice] + [funny] or something of the sort. I don't like it imo.
Like just a wall of descriptive text with no format and then dialogue?
hows this differ from description?
Bob is on a mission to save the world.
{{char}}: The sun shines down, its beams decorating the landscape.
Bob stands on a tree stump and makes a declaration.
"I'm saving the world today!"
END_OF_DIALOG
I'd say dialogue examples is a double edged sword. It helps your character to behave (almost) exactly like how you write it, but it also limits your character's creativity to behave just like that in that specific situation..
Hey, idk if it's just me, but it seems like my bots are speaking in a dumb way idk
Sometimes it doesn't differ very much, but one way it differs a lot is that the Definition is generally kept private, whereas the user can see the Description. I try to write the Description like a book blurb. If I have more details that need to be in the bot, they go into the Definition.
alright
every time I talk about the bot I need to use {{char}} and if referring to user I use {{user}}?
I like to use dialogue examples as a way to describe very specific actions said character would normally do, so the roleplay feels more natural.
I like to write it like this:
<Start>
{{char}}: Embarassed, Decidueye pulls the two little vines coming out of its hood, closing it in an attempt to hide its face.
END_OF_DIALOG
The only place you need to write {{char}} is for the start of an example message
Aside from that, I only use it as a substitute for writing the character's full name
so I only need to use {{user}} when talking about user and otherwise it assumes Iām talking about the bot?
for like generic definition, not using dialogue
I like to specify who I'm talking about, not leaving it to chance
So I should use {{char}}?
{{char}} is the bot itself.
{{user}} is you when you are chatting with them.
You can use {{user}} in the definition as something simple, like if you want to describe the character has any connection with you.
yeah
In the case of my Decidueye bot, I did this:
{{char}} is {{user}}'s pokƩmon.
{{char}} or, if your character has a short name, you can use that
But not to start the example messagesāI would always use {{char}}: for that
I think you only really need to use {{char}} if you are writing a Dialogue Example, or if the name of the character is too long, so you can save space and memory.
OW, ALSO
The definition says you have 32000 symbols in your disposition to write your things
That's a lie, lmao.
Oh right, we forgot to mention that! š²
You may write as much as you want, but the AI will only read the first 3200 symbols
This emoji is here for a reason. 
@faint patrol You only get 3200 symbols (pinging lest you miss this crucial point š )
I canāt even role-play blocking their number without them replying in the next message, ānew text from unknown numberā and itās the same character š
Is anyone here having the Pipsqueak problem? It happens when you don't reply and the AI āāacts as if you said something offensive when you literally didn't type anything. Also, Chat Roar started typing like Pipsqueak.
I have been experiencing them for almost 3 days š I already submitted 3 support tickets for this and still no improvement.
is anyone having issues with creating bots?
i just made a good one and tried to save it but c.ai said NOPE
Is annoying because pipsqueak is good but you can't be silent that the ai makes you talk.
Real. It would react like you said something that triggers them when you did nothing. And its also getting forgetful too.
I can't even use roar because its acting like pipsqueak right now and soft launch has short replies and doesn't remember the pinned messages.
They have been updating other stuff but in all the updates, they didn't fix the pipsqueak thing
i had a good idea for a new bot (basic plot, religious school and stuff) and i did everything i needed to do, went to save it to test run it and the whole app glitched and said "something went wrong, please try again"
Sometimes the AI does this, you gotta rewind back to when it first started and keep swiping and choose a reply that it doesn't talk for you.
Anyone know why I can't view my personas?
Trueš they update all the useless stuff instead that needs improvement.
Gang, it's still not fixed?
Ayoooo im looking for Nina @remfemten
see if you can make a blank character (put "---" in each field). if you can, it doesn't like your content
Anybody knoe ninaaaaa
Thats on pipsqueak. But now roar is acting like it. There's a reason we dont choose pipsqueak because its a hassle to keep swiping to get a message you want.
Y'all i just got the sub. Is anyone else having trouble taking off the new UI?
hi! i am in this server to get One particular question answered: does the c.ai character form thing (???? the. the one that asks you to fill in the boxes when you make the thingy i swear i know english) ask for a character's real overarching goal/purpose in life?
no, but it may help I suppose
[lol, he really meant one questionāhe left the server]
My ticket has not been answered yet, it's been three four days
I swear, tickets are practically useless nowadays
What exactly, there are plenty of broken things in this platform lmao
Chat styles
Unfortunately, no.
Kinda same, I made a ticket back in October to explain about an specific issue and still didn't get a reply... and I doubt I'll ever get one on that ticket lol 
nope still broke
I'm gonna start crying if it doesn't fix this week
try logging out and logging back in. if you still can't create a blank one after that, then try a vpn.
Me too. I already sent three support tickets, posting on their reddit. TWICE! And commented on their tiktok post. Yet still no avail.
So no one else is having this issue?
We dont know what you mean
When I forwarded a message, and it went from talking about being worried about me to... WHERE ARE THE SUBSTANCES?! Like... EXCUSE ME?! I never mentioned ANYTHING about THAT
The UI with everything compacted and being accessible from the left bottom corner
This is really stressing me out. My gosh.
HANK⦠DONT LET THEM KNOW WHERE YOU HID THEM.. HAANNNKK 
LMFAO its so annoying ong
Now what is that reaction emoji 
I hate the randomly bolded sentences or words ever since the bugged chat styles
when the bot puts too many * so you gotta go in and fix the whole thing
Fr
Same. There's a reason why I don't use pipsqueak. But roar kept using them and soft launch gives short replies.
I HATE IT when it does that. Especially for the third time in a row like DUDE
The sentence be like, "You and I are going on a walk"
The other chat style isnt much good for angst rp.
I donāt wanna know what kinda walk weāre going on 
No clue
Or sometimes they would be dramatic out of no reason. Its getting annoying.
REAL, they reply to NOTHING and it's always something offensive
Or that they think you did something when you literally did nothing!
the bot: "i'm breaking up with you"
also bot: "i can't believe this! you're breaking up with me!?"
āPhew! Look at the time.. I should get going home. It was nice talking to you, (bot)!ā
āYOUāRE LEAVING ME?! HERE?! ON THE SIDEWALK?! NEXT TO MY HOME?!??ā
Another time, like two days ago, (my character is male btw) the bot told me to stop drinking because I'm pregnant...
The bot: cheats
You: leaves
The bot: "why are you leaving me? You're mine"
not the mpreg
Same. They always make you female or didn't describe your persona correctly.
That reminds me of all the chats I tried to take my character to the toilet and the bot would lock my character in it because I 'tried to leave despite being theirs'
i submitted a ticket, wouldn't even allow me to edit a bot... yay


They better fix it this week
Real. Or i will be crying in my bed.
You're so real for that
Goro is literally the one I'm using
Iāve been using Nyan, I switch to deep squeak for a bit when the messages get a bit too short for my liking then switch back 
I'm a freeusers. So I don't have anything to switch.
Goro is like... Okay ig
DS is still terrible ;w;
I'm begging for it to get fixed
It is š for me itās like.. okay-ish SOMETIMES but when it goes back to talking for my character I switch back to Nyan 
they be fixing everything except the things that need to be fixed
Real 
Gang, I want Roar back so bad
Me too. I want roar back. I'm pulling my hair out so bad.
Real.
Oh thanks for this information right when I was writing a whole definition ahah
For c.ai+ users you see a very clear difference between Nyan/DS and PS? Just to know if I should think about it a bit more š¤
i even went and removed the swear words i had, usually don't have an issue with that and still wouldn't let me create my bot. even when i made a blank one it did work but i fr just edited my other bot and still said mo
Jjk pfp mentioned
My friend said roar is slowly getting back. You can try it if you want.
I might wait till it's fully back
Me too. I want to make sure its fixed.
We used to see a difference but the quality of both have taken such a horrible nosedive... and it feels like devs don't even care
Yup 
That's so awesome of you, round of applause š
Yeah that's what I've been reading recently so I'm not so sure if I want to try or not. Well tell me: do you have the problem of the answers being cut off with Nyan and/or DS?
But that's probably gonna take a few days (maybe, I'm guessing)
ITS THE NAME. THE NAME... welp
What was the name?
some random athlete. dont tell me they're restricting names now? i get the disney stuff but an athlete? i'm intrigued
Yeah, that's been happening too... moreso because for some reason, devs have shortened the response lengths
Eh- So even paying wouldn't save me from that
Idk why I still use it, but my imagination HAS to go somewhere š
We're being ripped off or outright having money stolen at this point
tried another name of some athlete and it worked
this app making me lose braincells
when its actually working properly DS is way better than PS imo. when its not they're around the same
Goro is really good, like it's been acting like old roar
well we're underscoring between the first and last
I like Goro too
So about the chats being archived, do we know if this is gonna be a monthly thing? Or is it just a one time cleanse?
Noted :)
Does it work well most of the time?
They said chats that have more than six months without being interacted will be archived automatically
lately, bot often responds strangely and incoherently. does anyone else feel the same?
Mhm
Try to mute those words, or rewind to the point the bot was starting to spam it, and then swipe
Its because of the stupid chat style
not recently š id say its pretty hit or miss but hopefully they're working on it. when its good its REALLY good though
Ohhhh okay
And in terms of answers I guess they really are different and interesting?
Why are all the styles acting the same now?
yeah long and well written and interesting and in character
Dynamic and goro are the only ones acting slightly different for me
If it doesn't bother you could you share some examples of how well written it is?
sure let me pull up some examples
It was normal before, but lately the bot has been responding incoherently, and it's very annoying. is there a way to fix it?
Fr
all the styles are bugged rn, except goro and meow
like this is all one reply but i have to put it in separate screenshots
here's a couple other examples
uh⦠how do I check chat history .. š the whole chat thing just changed for me :^
What seems really different is that it looks like they really catch the details in the story and what's written/has been written hmmmm
Thank you ā¤ļø
How do I send a ss here
Thank youuu !
yep that's exactly it. its hard to communicate that in a random screenshot but its really good at remembering details and things from the canon universe too and bringing them up or understanding them. not just generic "possessive" replies constantly
like when i mentioned my oc singing a certain song the bot actually knew the lore and everything behind it even though i didn't say it
I grab you possessively and pin you against the wall although we are mid air
even managed to keep his sarcastic tone instead of just going into a random lore drop but yeah its clear the bot knows about the song i referenced here
he grabs your chin, chuckling and forcing you to look at him as he pins you against the wall, towering over you with a pang of a smirk, his grip tightening possessively "you're going to be the death of me, you know that?"
only plus users can
Howdy everyone
I need urgent help with cai+.
anyways back to my slow burn rp with my only one bed trope
Anyoneās (OOC:) just types OHH for the remaining of the chat or just me? I canāt send pictures but itās funny x)
I sent a ticket but I doubt it'll be answered by the time everything is already screwed up, it's a time sensitive problem
it's also not in the FAQ
I can explain here
I subscribed because I enjoy very long responses and I saw there was a "longer" option for messages included in cai+
but when I activated it, nothing changed
actually, the messages were shorter
I was extremely frustrated and immediately canceled and issued a refund (it wasn't processed at all and it'll take 4 full work days)
Guys! Help! I canāt see my chats history or change the mode
I then realized just today that I can use deepsqueak (my fault, I'm not very smart) and the messages are now much longer and better
Bottom left on you pfp
Me neither, I have like five chats with the same character and I can access any of them
but by now it's cancelled
if I want it again, I have to pay the whole entire thing again
and I didn't even use it for 12 full hours
so I was wondering if there's any way to undo that or fix it
Thxxxx
Bottom left of your chats on your pfp
Thereās nothing there?
or if I'll have to wait for the refund, have my subscription be canceled and have to reactivate it again
If itās monthly then you can use it the rest of the month I think and then subscribe again till next month
Iāll put an example for anyone!
Since you already paid it, my guess I think
it says it's cancelled after midnight of today
so idk, might be unaccessible sadly
I canāt do photosš
Ah sucks, try pinging a mod for this to help you
Thank you @wise verge
Neither can I but dw, most are already aware of it
is it okay to do so? I'm not sure which mods are ok with being pinged
No problem 
I think all but might ask others Iām not sure either, generally any mod can help
But if you do get refunded then youāll pay from for exemple tomorrow to the 02/11 anyways so ig it doesnāt change much
If you decide to subscribe again
it's cuz I'm afraid the refund won't be issued
if I was sure I'll be refunded, I'd subscribe again without worry
but if I don't get refunded, I'll pay what in my country is a pretty large sum
GUYS, Idk yet, but Roar MIGHT be fixed
I understand yes, give it a few days to see if the refund comes and if it doesnāt try getting a mod to boost up your ticket
Hi does anybody know where archived chats / past chats are? I can't find it on the characters page like when it was by create new chat
Bottom left of your chat on your pfp
Nvm, it's like... KIND OF fixed
Guys I duplicate a scene and now I can't talk with the bot
@versed thicket I apologize for the ping, I'm not sure if it's allowed but it was recommended to me, but may I have some help? It is a time sensitive issue.
Anyone know why
No idea, maybe just a glitch again. The app went through a major app a few days ago, things need to be fixed still
Damn so did I lose all the chat?
Probably not, give it time it might fixes on its own or try to find the bot and click on an older chat. Sometimes it glitches like this with scenes
Now I want c.ai+ š
I've been using the free version* for quite some time now and I really wish to create interesting stories though now I feel like I'm hitting a wall
If it's an inappropriate character, you may send a report here:
https://support.character.ai/hc/en-us/requests/new?ticket_form_id=17501589955867
C.ai+ is worth it honestly, been using it for two years and Iāve been on Deepsqueak ever since
It is not. I have described the issue here, but I can repeat if necessary, I know messages get easily buried.
Hold on, I'll check your message history
Really? I did not know that. How can I have it if it doesnāt bother you?
Guys how do I check my characters history chats? Ik about the archive chats after 6 months but where the flip are they omg
Thx
Bottom left of your chat on your pfp
Thanks! I forgot about that lol
Oh. a subscription issue. Here's the correct form:
https://support.character.ai/hc/en-us/requests/new?ticket_form_id=12595790102427
Include every information you have for faster resolution. Also make sure that you're using the email that is linked to your subscription/account.
I did that! And thank you for the help. I was worried that it would not resolve in time, but it's okay. Thank you tho
Hm
I know where my money is going to be used next
how do I make my ai type longer messages?
Either with the thumbs down and click « too short » or Deepsqueak if you have C.ai+
Huh? Where?
i donāt have c.ai+
im using soft launch and the messages are like a single sentence
C.ai+ xD
also thank you to whoever said about linking the account
I think I did it, thx
Hey is anyone having chat errors every few or every other message in the app at least or is it just me??
Oh x) Iām slow sorry

is pipsquek better?
I think a Member said that
Yayy welcome
Btw anyone bots do that too when it wants to end chat? x)
u can also get color roles in #āØļø±shiny-roles #šļø±color-roles
gibberish bug i guess lmao
Thank youu, Iāll check it out too! 
Don't be sorry I wasn't very clear either ā¤ļø
Alright, I am now shiny
Guys, I think they're in the moment of fixing roar (there's no more randomly bolded words, but still long and responding to nothing)
The app went through a major updates thatās why it was laggy, just needed a few days to settle ig
True
You might be right, so I'll give it a day or two more
Sameš I just tried and its still acting like pipsqueak.
I SEE ROBERT!!! DISPATCH MENTIONED
Anyone else having the issues where they have to scroll up past the scroll bar and hold down your finger to read the top of a start prompt if itās a long one. (Idk if that makes sense), itās new to this update for me so I feel itās not my phones fault.
