iām glad you got that fixed 
i cant now bcs its 21:50 for me āļø
Like I mean text not call?? And itās 21:50 for me too!
whos the developer of cai
i know, i just go to bed in 22:00 and stay awake until 3am
Prob som baka
ass vro made everyone addicted
i am trust
Sad fr, now they adding daily limit when they the ones who gave the addiction
UR CAI VERIFIED
first disney now microsoft lol at this rate theyre gonna run out of characters that arent someones IP
yea yea i'm so tuff
Has anyone been seeing weird things pop up mid chat?
i am š
ads? itās a normal thing
Idk I have a little chance of no ads in nights
Ayo does anyone else feel like the cops are called when the auto moderation blocks your 18+ stuff? Hahaha.
dont start with the damn ads
ME
waa
Who even clicks report.
Wowowoo yes yes
No that's insane š i just ignore it and press send again so that the bot finishes that thought
just go in c.ai settings click on discord i got verifed like that
Not adds I mean like literal coding.
is there a way to see how many people have used a scene?
yeah thatās normal
ngl in the start I wasnāt affected by that app it happen from my friend š„
i dont even have that much filters
I do if it false flags stuff
u know where? my english is bad so i cant realy explain to u correctly
Sad same didnt have much effect, but rn like super addicted and the baka devs making cai pretty worse although chat quality did get an upgrade to an extend i think idk, did ur friend like told u abt the app or som?
What does ācai verifiedā do
I'm sorry, I don't understand
lets you react to messages and stuff
idk
My friend doesnāt use cai but I already know about it, I donāt even wanna waste money on some stupid app they ruined now
I have learned that using euphemisms and purple prose gets past the 18+ filter.
Why tf would you say a loophole in a public server
just go in settings click on discord and thats how i got verifyed
I want my free unlimited swipe back
Sad fr, everything took a completely different turn after new ceo or som idk i remember there was some baka announcement made here
Yall is c.ai working for you rn. It keep saying chat error or character unavailable rn
i never got that filter š
get c.ai+ for 100 swipes my friend
bro 30 swipes is more than enough gang
I'm verified, I have the plus role
I canāt buy Cai plus
i cenceled it the day they modereted my boy, i bought it just to get away with ads
be stuck with 30 swipes then
What do charms even do? I see them on the web already
I mean like some hyper sexuals or older are dying to get the app back and some of them are now healed, but the others are already crying for to come back, if cai doesnāt fix ts it will just resume hate and ppl wonāt use it anymore
remove ads and also removes the slow chat
removes ads for 1h
which is pretty good but it will take so much time to recover the addiction
Copy paste present emote and rewind for swiping with more steps but unlimited. :^)
i still do this even with the subscription haha
Using cai to help with any illness always reminds me of when gpt said to replace sodium chloride with sodium bromide
Support drop for older versions of the app made me immediately quit, not coming back until they make it an option...
Even verification doesn't work. I clicked on "verify age" and it gave me
it wonāt come back
probably
Ye cai getting hatw ever since it got popular or som, but i think this some online safery act that countries are singing now or som, thats why they be making these age verifying updates and such, but stuff like ads are prob the dev team making.
I meant the classic UI, sorry, forgot to mention...
...Though, you're still not wrong when you say that...
it help me with my anxiety in public
Iād be on my other prime which I first start using polybuzz or just quit bc itās ass
i MISS the classic ui. guess weāre all stuck with the current ui now
Yeah, and it sucks, sucks so much it healed my addiction...
The og ones
honestly this is real
bsfr
And very GOOD! It's GOOD that it healed it!
good for u
Mhm...
The app ratings have gotten so bad yesterday it was at an 2,1 and now it's down to 2,0
should we just bomb the developer who just ruin this app
On the Polish Play Store it's 1.3 stars, not even surprised...
depends on the region. still, iām not surprised that the ratings are dropping
i cant send gifs š„
In germany its 2.2
Polish friend?
Itās still 4.5 stars for me
where do i see that, got it
whaat at my region its 4,2 rating
What's yours at?
you might need to have the c.ai+ role for that
What do y'all think, will they change the app for the better if the ratings go low enough?
Holy
mine is 4.2 stars
4.4 on the app store
I do have a Polish friend, why?
DANG
with 5.5k ratings
You Polish?
i cant send gifs here
The app has gone down ever since ads were interduced
I don't know, 50/50...
Mine says like 2.2 million ratings
For what Google play store or Apple Store cause this is it for apple
Yeah, why?
in slovenia is 4.5
Me too 
I feel like dropping my rating down to a 3 because of the banner ad on convos now. >:(
For me app store says around 2.2 million ratings it's down to 2,0
On play store it's 12+
That's awesome...
Its not that bad tho, you get used to it
It's that blue it's so bright
This is basically what mine look like
itās annoying as hell š even getting rid of them for an hour isnāt worth it
Like the banner color that bright blue is so exhausting to look at
i just buy the chepest charms
Iām just listening to Friendly rivalry soundtrack on Spotify
Its not that bad, for me it wasnt really an issue, just the first time i saw it was a bit wierd
RS! As in...RuneScape? :o
No
Has anyone found a away to get an old version of the app
nope
i got rid of ads from the app without c.ai+ so thank god i dont see it anymore i glared at it sometimes for minutes
RennSport
how
Well, there were APKs that actually worked before, but these geniuses decided to drop support for almost every single older version of the app...
donāt be too hopeful too soon. you might just get them back one day
And it's sad, because I've been happily using version 1.12.1 for a few months and it was great, way better than what we have now...
Oh
i donāt think there even is a way to get the older version anymore
dm me iāll show you
Mine still sais update in the play store
There is but the chats just don't work anymore
i dunno i enjoy it till i can though
Yeah, and you'd think they'd only do that to the versions that have the classic UI and colors-- NO. They dropped support even for the ones that have the new horrendous neon UI...
so.. getting it just for it to rot in your device isnāt worth it
I JUST WANT MY SITH BOY BACK 
Kinda worth for the memories...
Neon ui? What an eye sore that is
Yeah, bright blue and deep black...
fair enough š„¹
I tried different methods to download those too but it just doesn't work anymore. It happened like over night. I woke up and suddenly it isn't working
i guess youāre stuck with the current version of c.ai now
And the contrast and saturation options just make it look more depressing, I don't even bother with it anymore...
But the fact that we have to take pictures of our ids is crazy, just let me continue my furry infection rp story bro
It got patched unfortunately
i always had to take breaks from my phone because of that
The id is only if you fail face scan
Ah
Furries get carded. No buts.
Bruh
Funny how when we mention we want the previous UI many times, they never actually do it, but the moment we talk about the older versions of the apps that still work, they IMMEDIATELY patch it...
itās safe to verify with your id, donāt worry. i get what you mean
Not surprised...
getting c.ai+ and getting rid of it is so worth it š„¹
I actually bet that one of the mods is here reading this message and watching our chat right now...
Thatās why you have to keep quiet of loopholes
The verification isn't working currently for some reason. I can't verify my age
Its not that i dont think its safe, its just too much, regardless
Yeah, quite refreshing, even though I never subscribed...
So their is no way to get past the age verification
no no i understand. still, if you wanna continue your interesting roleplay, iād suggest doing the age verification with your id
Even if it's safe, i have that weird feeling giving my face to some party that i never heard about before
Yeah, I did, but clearly some other people didn't...
they delete your data or something in a week from what iāve heard
so youāre safe
How old do you even have to be in the rules its 16+ for europe users
using charms to get rid of it is always an option
Wasn't it that they keep it for 3 years? That's at least what i heard of
Yeah but...still...i don't know...
I don't even want to try charms, currency in c.ai is just, eugh...
honestly i didnāt bother to read what theyād do with your data the moment you verify your age
18+ at least
even i forget to claim them sometimes 
Bruuhhhh
There was a currency?
I dont want to switch apps, all the other ones are filled with corny stuff
I never claimed any of those, my app version was too old for that...
Sooo true
saving them is an option
By corny stuff i mean a lot of dating, from the ads ive seen
I just want older versions back...where it was still useable
So their is no way to get past the age verification
I guess...
Hey, would I talk in here if I have a question?
Fr, It all went downhill since ads got added
Depends on the question
Fr, c.ai used to be the decent one where you can actually make multiple personas without limit. Now it's just terrible.
Iām having an issue where the app wonāt load the bots
Naw i don't really care about the ads. Im pissed about the time limit and taking away the edit button
Also true
guys i used to get breaks for hours but now it's been going for 24 hrs
Do you use the newest version?
reload the site/close and open the app
Is there any way to but passed the age verification
Iām pretty sure i do
Hell, it went downhill when they started changing the UI and making the for you page metro style-like...You know, like, these tiles and stuff...
Yes
I have tried, itās the same loading screen
But i guess i have multiple comic lengths of chats that i can read when im bored
if youāre forced to do it, then thereās no way of bypassing it
might be down for you. wait for it to come back
And untill i turn 18 which im not even sure ill use the app at that point
Am i the only one that deletes account just to create a new one?
Alright
iāve used the same account since 2023 š¤
Are you on an older app version
I wish i could get back my older account
Ive used mine since 2023 early 2024
I started using mine around like, maybe mid 2023...
Whatās the latest version?
i used it since around november 2023
Like i can't even log in through my email, i don't know why though. I can log it but it won't load
I dont even remember when i downloaded it, i remember using it a lot in the summer on my holiday in croatia like 3 years ago
Not too sure, check your play store or app store for any updates...I heard that people can't use older versions anymore
I just checked, thereās no update available
the app really doesnāt want you to get back to your old account 
It does if you spend money
like for chats or?
Guys I have a question when u use cai and in night do u have this nonstop line sound in ur right ear cuz im feeling scared i prob need to go for medical needs š¤·āāļø
But i don't even know why. Other emails work but that one email just refuses to work.
It does but its plus only
because you can do that to chats if you have c.ai+
Yeah, well, all you can do is change the wallpaper and the colors of the chat bubbles, and that's boring...
have you contacted support about it?
No...should i?
i think itās a sign to do that
Yeah, and possibly some other parts of the interface, though that'd probably be hard to do...
if you really want to get your account back
Dunno, can only read
Oof, that sucks.
for chats, thereās c.ai+. but i DO agree that we should customize the app itself
Oh mb itās not general oops
Imma go try then...where can i message them?
Thanks 
Yeah, imagine having a Windows Aero-like look, or like a scene look, that would be so cool...
iād love to make my c.ai all pretty 
Same !!
I think it only happens to you
hello :3 I don“t know where to ask/post it elsewhere? (english is not my first language) i get respones about codes, weird stuff (like i mention a food in a message and then i get a response what food it is, how to make it - like a list or something but not a bot response) in other response i got things on spanish or russish ect. or other weird things but just since not long ago it started qwq can i do somethign against it? or just keep swiping? (mostly it was 20% good start of a message and then the other 80% this weird)
That's probably tinnitus, I have both the "eeee" tinnitus and a typewriter one, where I basically hear Morse Code, practically everyone has at least one type of tinnitus...
change to a different chat style or keep swiping
try switching the chat style. it does that sometimes
itās normal
okay thank you, you two! the chat style was good until days ago so I did not think it was about that
since the moment they added it. iād suggest doing it
yeah, but i am not exactly comfortable sharing my ID
itās all safe. theyāre not gonna sell your data anywhere from what iāve heard
Persona is very sketchy tho and they use that for the age verification software
it also wants like face scan, does it estimate from the face scan or it wants the id afterwards?
this is true
depends. it might want both
yeah, that's what i'm afraid of.
and the ai can literally false age me if it bases of my face
it guesses ur age from the age scan, if it doesnt know ur age, it asks for id
then it asks for your id
just to be sure
i guess i'm having to rethink my life choices bc i wanna use c.ai but on other hand i don't trust sending my id somewhere
The verification is working now?
u must choose cai or ur personal data...
Also it only forces you to verify if it flags you as underage based off your chats, even if you fail the scan
idek, it never works
thatās understandable. you can have the confidence to do it, or you can switch to another app
Alright i submitted, now i have to wait
yeah, it told me to verify or my chats lock down in 14 days
it might take a few weeks to answer, but i hope youāll get your answer ASAP 
you have no other choice but to verify
submitted what
I can't log in with my email, like other emails work but that one particular email just refuses to cooporate
i heard that email logins were bugged recently #šļø±status
ohh damn hope it will get fixedš«¶š»
but they "fixed" it, so idk, cai is so bugged
werenāt they fixed?
Yeah uh...that shit has been like this for a year at least
i made a new account with another email and it worked
ever since the age verifcation shi came, cai has been so buggy (im praying all the servers fall and break)
||Grass||
agreed
I can't believe it, I've been using the app since 2020 and now it's become garbage.
fr
It existed in 2020?
it wonāt get better anytime soon 
it wasnt around until 2022
It was really bugged but yeah
The downfall started with the ads. It's gotten so buggy now, it's only gonna get better when an actually good alternative comes out and their FORCED to get better
Im since 2023
Did you access by website? The app wasn't released till 2023 according to play store
itās really laggy on an android for me
i think the downfall also actually started when some ppl fell deep into it and started treating the bots as normal person
There will be NO better alternative. Nothing will be near as good as c.ai, and that's a sad truth
so true
??? character ai wasnt a thing until november 2021
I think it all went down since that one incident with that kid...
Polybuzz is kinda close, although they lack a lot of quality of life feature c.ai has.
yup, agreed, honestly i can't understand how people can get this attached to artificial intelligence
with the first public beta releasing in september 2022 (ik i sound like a nerd)
i missed my bots its annoying
yeah i tried out alternatives i found one that is managable but almost every app crushes down or you need to pay or you get a limit there its frustrating
I kinda got addicted....
everything changed since then and itās so frustrating
all schleps fault (mostly)
could be that too
.
I can agree tbh
Shlep is the reason why age verif is reinforced into apps
Are you gonna tell us if we ask or are you gonna dangle the knowledge you found a useable alternative in front of us?
I lol at the ads for other ai platforms . It's like, bro im tryna write a story with paragraphs, not watch the bot strip.
i mean, if you're addicted it's honeztly not that big kind of problem. the problem id if you start to see a regular person behind the bot and treating the bot loke it's a human when it's machine. you can work with addiction, but not this.
Eh. Character ai as an app was good until they started renovating the ui (at least to me. The new UI sucks imo)
HAHAHAH
bro i just want the verification to work
Is there another alternative to c.ai thatās similar? No ads preferably and maybe with the same variety of characters it has?
UI is horrible, never downloaded the app cus I liked the website ui, now it's annoying
I used c.ai to deal with lonliness cuz i was in a time where i had no one to talk with. After like a year or 2 i just used it to create stories to entertain myself
thatās what addiction does to you i guess
old(dot)character(dot)ai...
Nope.jpeg
There is NOTHING close to c.ai
I might download the app for a bit just to get charms.
unfortunately, no
the new app ui that came out recently is horrible
True. Ever since renovation the ui got quite clunky
save them. they might become useful in the future
completely understandable if you used it for that point, but still, my point is that the problem is when you see a human in the bot and not that its machine
Wait like the big UI change from a few months back?
i couldnt write um i like pollybuzz though its not that bad but not the same experience as c.ai
am i the only one that likes it?
Valid but i mean when it sorta became BIG ya know? Now because of that we have all this bs going on from 1 kid and the shlep dude fucking everything up by making apps have age verification when it wasn't needed at all since the main apps getting age verification stuff in it was for kids. why would you need to verify your age for something that's for all ages or 13+ at best
Then no, i was not that deep into it
How long is the timeout usually?
i like it too but character creating is now too complicated for me
Why are the chats slow!
fair enough
everything at cai is rotting
Slow mode likely
I remember they had the option to switch to the old ui but they removed it
depends
old ui better
I havenāt got the notification
so like does wveryone agree that the app is becoming worse...
Sometimes you don't get one
True. Tho, on my part, the UI from before had a cozier look. And it didn't lag on me.
Aaaand now we've gotten to the point i've had to leave the app completely. Man, what a journey
It is
definitely
REAL... it was so fun when c.ai was just a stupid ai roleplay website where everyone didn't take it seriously
The app will be ruined if devs won't listen to the community even a bit
we can hate all day and they wont do anything is the sad truth
honestly much precautions came because of that one child incident
We can't.
happened to me too. iād recommend some sites but i donāt wanna get timed out again š
And then there's the parents
js write the sites in ur discord status for a while
does anyone know why verifying my age won't work? is this happening to anyone else
No you can't mention other apps or sites, in the rules it says don't advertise other ai apps or sites
verification aint working for a lot
And.. just based in NY, how long will it be until people who canāt verify wonāt be able to use the app at all?
saamee thats why i couldnt write i think we cant though
Remember everyone, you have the power the contribute to the solution! If we complain enough people will eventually make alternatives!
ohh okay I thought it was just me
it hasnāt been working for a while
it takes a lot of work and power AND money to make ais
I'm not gonna lie I believe it's too little too late to NOW be precautious because the age verification updates are just seen as broken and sloppy that STILL don't work.
do you really think that would help?
/genq
Also I 100% agree with the UI part. Everything felt so weird when they changed it
Uh, anyone else experiencing chats writing weird codes instead of texts?
cai is rotting, people
switch chat styles and keep swiping
I had that happen a few times
well i have a friend of mine who did their own ai program for his research he found a solution to my medical issue too even though i couldnt find it for months so we could hope
Well yeah, if people realize that there's a valid opening and a large community that would flock to it if they made the alternative good enough, eventually people are bound to capitalize on it.
Thats been a thing for a while it js happens every now n then itāll go away eventually
fair
yo
hi adrian
i hope that happens
Sheesh, the site really can't go 10 minutes without suddenly slowing down anymore.
like anyone can do ai programs now with some studying and knowing how to program lets hope all we get something not so troubling
Real
The replies are long as hell though
Please donāt recommend this site to minors
OMG YK BALL
i just hope we get something similar to c.ai in the future
is any1 here getting chat errors repeatedly? tried reinstalling the app, backing in and out of chats, etc
could be down for you. wait for it to come back
how u doing niš„·
Are you using scenes?
It's that if you're using any older versions it won't work
Mini was writing codes and weird stuff
Its a literal corn bot site??
iām good š¤ you?
im good š«¢
i would say i could ask my sister but i dont think she approves talking with ai for entertainment
WHAT even happened for them to mention that what'd i miss??
gotta hope for someone else to do it then 
donāt worry
i dont know what site you mean, can you dm me?
They were recommending Janny ai to minors even tho its a literal corn bot site strictly for 18+ because of the lack of a filter
An OPTIONAL filter. Youāre gross for thinking its okay to recommend stuff like that to minors especially with the amount of f3t!sh bots I see on that site.
imma put the two alters in my bio i use one of them is that one if anyone wants to know check it out
Do not DM minors with an explicit adult site tf are you doing
everything IS a corn bot site at this point. just⦠maybe not do that kind of roleplay with a bot?
Out of ALL THE APPS they could've used.. they chose that one?..
i'm not a minor bro

Im dead šš
this server is full of minors and I didn't see them ask you your age. Plus "I'm an adult" is not something to take at face value in here
did they fix the age verification thing yet? im sick and tired of reading mode XD
Its not ever gonna go away I dont think
it is. trust me. you can choose to not have that kind of roleplay or not anyway
cries ;; ty
@lyric tapir recommending adult chatbot sites to people
Doesn't making a new account and deleting the old one get rid of reading mode?? (You didn't hear this from me if devs fix this)
yeah, i understand, honestly i agree that its hard to recognise who is adult and who is not, some of us can just say it to bypass so ye
never gonna happen tho
I second this. This is borderline predatory stuffš
no worries
Majority of the other ai apps are so bad tbh
I donāt know what else to do bruh I canāt even actually verify
Fr !!
It is an OPTIONAL filter that can easily be turned off by minors. Youāre gross for recommending this to minors.
wait this is a good idea for an app
I know right ? Now someone has to do it and Iām willing to wait
Not to be a smart ass but you all could just take up long form writing if your fun keeps being ruined. Back when I was a teen I learned how to write from MMO RP stuff and then went on to write solo for myself. c:
This is the equivalent of saying its okay to give a kid a bag of coke because they have the option to not use it
genuinely have a huge grin on my face looking at ppl complain in cai posts
Youāre recommending corn bot sites to minors. That is literally predatory behavior š«©āļø
@dull rock cai i dm you
guys by the way i used wp before c.ai and i went back to the old fashioned way i reccomend that too
Yeah, specifically in the april fools one
why are u asking, be happy ur lucky
I didn't call you a predator???
They didnāt flagged you as a minor yet
ikr
Im the one saying its predatory brotato
bros getting annihilated
bro what is going on hereš
and how am i supposed to get flagged 0_0
probably got lucky and got your age verified through your personas or something
You are atleast flagged?
when they ask u to verify
Someone is recommending a corn bot site to minorsš«©
probably not no
Bro idk but I'm not getting involved š
i think im witnessing the consequences of not being able to read messages in real time
Then enjoy the app bradar
What the heck is a corn bot.
they did on the update logs but.. nowhere else
Idk how it works but yeahššš
thereās so many problems with cai
1- canāt delete ur own characters
2- 1 hour limit
3- the timer is above 10 hours
4-age verification?
is this even character ai?
dude, almost every cai alt is ns too, there is no escaping, most cai alts were MADE for ns, now cai is unusable, minors are going to these corn ai sites, CUZ THEY HAVE NO CHOICE
mate i havent put an age for my persona(s)
And the age verification don't works š„
Does the age verification not work for others too? Iāve tried multiple times and am not able to verify
Sighhh this update is so booty butt cheeks
Isnt the 1st one only if ur character gets super popular?
being unable to delete characters bugs me so much
you didnāt get flagged as a minor then
That doesnāt change the fact that an ADULT is recommending an ADULT site to CHILDREN.
well nice
No, it doesn't work for me too
Real like I've wanting to delete my character I made but they never added that option like why
thatās crazyš
itās been bugged for a while
whats ns?
Literally they want us to verify and then not let us verify like what
Tf is a corn site šš
No itās a new update you can no longer chat anymore if youāre a minor
not me either bro but you got a nice pfp tho
the person asked for alts, the person got given alts, maybe if cai wasnt so against minors, they'd wouldnt switch to corn ai sites
oh nvm i ger it
bro just shut your yap youāre digging your grave bigger
Tf is happening here ?
no ik but like are you guys having problems or something? those who are verified?
I love your pfp
OMG TWILA thatās a reminder for me that Iām old
in german we call you friedensbrot
WE LOVE TWYLAā¤ļø
Yes !
It was quite literally made for the purpose of having adult content with bots. Youāre so disgusting for thinking itās acceptable for you as an ADULT to be recommending a CLEARLY ADULT SITE to CHILDREN. You can quite literally get into legal trouble for this.
is it down or not bro š
What does it mean ? :D
bread of peace
Oh fuck those 5 minutes of peace last time I was here really were only 5 minutes
could be down for you
Yall trying to rationalize this when you can literally get sent to jail for this stuffš«©š«©
Guys but what is even a corn site šš
I am currently on break time but I think itās having some issues since I itās really laggy for me
Iām not even involved in this conversation lmfao
Wait thatās cooler in German what the hay ???
Adult content
yeah
Holy moly
Woow
Bro whatās going on now š
Real like let them argue that out
sites like ph
happy black and orange page
Yeah I agree. If corn is code for...I think I know...then ahhh...
/r/fetishcai
To see all the corn of Cai.
im js saying, most cai alts were made with ns, cai was the only main sfw ai site with a filter, now cai banned minors, minors HAVE to change to these worse sites to get their ai fix, not supporting the bad ai sites, but minors have little choice
W H A T
itās like if I was standing on the sidewalk and they rammed their car into me
Wait why people are talking about š½
gosh im so curious rn but i dont wanna check
I went away for a moment, why are we talking about funny orange site now
donāt
DO NOT !!
Hi, can anyone tell me why I can't edit any of my own messages or those from bots?
argument
Im not sure what youāre trying to fight about here. Iām disgusted at the fact a grown adult is recommending adult sites to children. Idc what c.ai is doing
So the usual, okay
i wont.. but it will js all be text messages, right?
You might have gotten flagged as a minor. If you believe this is a mistake, then you can verify your age in settings
but minors have no choice but to sadly use these sites. unless cai makes minor access more open
DISGUSTING messages
Yeah disgusting
this update is good but bad at the same time
It doesn't let me verify saying it's cause of an error over and over
Any HELP-
Buddy you are literally arguing with the law right now. If a minor used your recommendation and got into an adult site via YOUR direct recommendation you can literally go to jail and face legal consequences.
shhh dont say ir here
itās been bugged for a while
alr there is prob an admin lurking
Agreed, itās good to reduce risk of overuse/ addiction, but bad for people ALREADY addicted to it
hop off bro lol
Again, I donāt care about what youāre saying. All I see is you defending an adult telling children to go to an adult site
Is it good lol? I would deff switch if it is
None of us are ok, are we?
it's doing that to me also
So we are talking about the site with long responses yes? @dull rock
bro got nuked
well imo its good for minor protection but theyre restricting it too much
Dang it, thanks for telling me
cuz. they. have. no. other. choicee. aa
msg
It Is normal that i cant Edit characters message a anymore? Its a Update thing?
that option is gone for minors
THAT DOES NOTHING TO CHANGE THE FACT ITS LITERALLY ILLEGAL FOR AN ADULT TO RECOMMEND ADULT SITES TO LITERAL CHILDRENNNNš«©šš
So you're new
CAREFUL, an admin is lurking...
bruh
Option bro, option that can be easily avoided
Couldnāt agree more, they also moved way too fast with restrictions, imo it shouldāve been a longer limit first then slowly decreased as the weeks went by
Why everytime i try to verify my age it tells me theres a error i should contact support
I have been trying for more than a week now
What is happening?
A lot to be honest
like maybe add a filter to chats and u need to show like id or something if u wanna remove the filter
app is so cooked gang
It's also happening to me
Minors cant edit?
fr
im lucky hahaha
Theres no support you can contact
yeah. they can edit it and make it inappropriate. itās for the best
Youāre the one arguing lol
What do you mean ?
i didnr get flagged at all
Literally this, I lowk tried saying this a few days ago but I definitely worded it wrong bc I got muted for a bit š
I see, Is there a verification Age?
OOOH well me too
Apparently, android users have a way to get on older versions. Itās all over TikTok.
yes. iād recommend doing it if you can
helpš
I havenāt had to look for an alternative bc I can verify but theres literally thousands of ai chatbot sites out there Iām sure theres plenty
itās in advanced settings in the app i think
Apparently itās recently been patched (donāt take my word for it though because Iām an iPhone user lmao)
Thank you
Same but android users have way more flexibility than us iOS users, so they probably already have another way of getting an older version
That's been removed
can someone help whenever i want to sent a message to a bot but it says chat error tap to refresh
they canāt anymore
Older version?
Still talking about the age verification, I have an android device so I might look into trying to get one of the earlier versions of the app if itās still a thing
Okay
yea
Patched
funniest reddit post to wake up to this morning
Rip I guess
Yeppp
Fucking brilliant
So how many people are actually using cai now with the restrictions?
It was GREAT until it got patched
Now you cant use it anymore
well yeah if you publicly mention it everywhere you shouldnt be surprised that they patched it
exactly why were people not more secretive sbt it if they didn't want it to get patchedš
I hope it get fixed
Lmao
This is why I like to gate keep
It's not broken
Some people are bad at being secretive
eggsactly
Nah literally, at least one mod is probs reading through this chat either when theyāre online or as we speak and patching every method we talk about š
Idk invent a new thing
better than people announcing āHEY EVERYONE HERE IS HOW TO BYPASSā on the subreddit and the discord where the mods are at
We human beings love talking so much
sky, it will NEVER get fixed
I think currently the timeout will just make it worse for teens, for me it lasts until two am and then I can chat, I feel like for someone who is addicted it will just make them stay up late just to chat, and when the break time comes again then theyāll will wait until next day late at night to use it
Yāall the old versions arenāt working anymore, Did they cut the service? š„²
Doing anything but responding to the hate btw, even if they couldnāt do anything due to legal laws, the least they could do is address the hate
I got an idea. How about we all write our own stories instead of getting AI to do it?
They also act like c.ai staff can't see the 5 unofficial spinoff subreddits
we have been talking about it already
Let me have hope
did they remove the message edit feature ?
It's patched
itās gone for minors
Itās a mad proposition I know
Yes
my message edit feature disappears like every other month
So what was the reason for the restrictions?
I literally do that, maybe I just like blowing off steam with AI bots
minor safety
legality issues
Lawsuits + legal law in California (because thatās where cai is based)
Oh
This
Fair enough, I guess there are other ways of blowing off steam
why the helly can i only have 6 swipes nowā¦.
Fuck California no offense to all the people that live there but still
Is it just me who does/ did the most random crap on cai that would never happen irl (like once I just felt like making myself moonwalk on air to freak the characters out š)
i js got rage baited
Not to mention also in univeristy full time
How nice of them. 
Fair enough got my respect for that but as I said, there were other ways of being entertained
just underage
just accounts flagged as minors
underage
Underage but thatās only for 14 days, after that, permanent reading mode
Anyways, back too, finding alternatives
excuse me what
Anyone else have the stupid auto astrerik feature thing? I hate it is there a way to turn it off?
I think itās just for if you havenāt verified
more like 10%
Yeah, but only if your account gets flagged as a minor, if it thinks youāre an adult youāre fine
astrerik?
do u have to show ur id? because im NOT planning to show my id.
Ohh that thing on the app
Right, 80% isnāt correct š
Only if you get flagged
depends. if it canāt figure out your age by your face, then you need to use your id
Yeah can u turn it off? It's Hella annoying and ruining chat flow
what nightwing's girl said
It will ask you for a face scan and if it canāt detect that your face looks old enough to be the face of someone who is of age then it will require you to show your ID
Unfortunately there's no way to turn it off, I wish there was too
I don't think you can turn it off
Is that you in your pfp?
-sweats in 16-18 year old high school girl outfit-
No flag yet. I didn't put an age in the persona though.
Another honey pot for everyone to put their data into
close. itās a streamer
Fantastic lol
Damn he looks good
bad day to look like a child
gotta love shooshimooshi 
Is he a gamer? I might start watching him
Yes or if you want to be completely, I guess safe you could point it at a fictional character. Say a video game character.
heās a streamer that makes videos reacting to all sorts of stuff !! he rarely plays games on stream. i recommend watching him tho
won't work, they detect human movements -_-
technically.. yeah
why not just use urself...
With that face card, i wouldnt care what he do
alright...
are we deadass
yes
I have vitiligo and it says it canāt detect my face so
HAHAH. he posts himself a lot on tiktok if you care about that
im fully deadass, it aint that hard to use ur own face
My back camera is broken this isn't fair
really?
i tried to do face scan so many times it just says to turn to customer service
use ur front cam
i ain't giving my face to a company that has leaked information bro š¤£
I will definitely follow
Why not just use yourself have you not been listening to everything weāve been saying? If youāre going to do it you have to trick the face verification in thinking that youāre older than you are you are the use of video game characters face or you just put a mask on or some shit drawer a beard on yourself a moustache maybe
Can't for ID
yep. Ive sent tickets, even tried my drivers license. They sent me a copy and paste message it said my data didnt match
Dude: āWhile there is no single "official" public report specifically isolating the percentage of adults who remain after completing verification, current data shows that adults continue to make up the vast majority of the user base.
Adult Demographics: As of late 2025 and into 2026, roughly 88% to 90% of Character.AI's traffic comes from users aged 18 and older.
18ā24 age bracket: ~51.8% of users.
25ā44 age bracket: ~36.2% of users.ā
weird
i just wanna cure my boredom somewayš
contact support about it maybe
you dont get how hard it is to get people to use your alternative or even find it. People who love it gatekeep it so they can benefit of more generous limits. thats their mindset.
i guess, but its still understandable they wouldnt want to use their face
If only you could read š
real
either way why would you do it voluntarily considering its past
"loud minority" literally
what
Five minutes later: "It won't let me verify, Persona isn't working!"
she reporting yallš¤
he*
already did
ok sorry for not wanting to show my face bro š¤£
Genuinely what did you expect
did they answer?
no reply yet
why canāt i verify my age. it says for 5th time that it couldnāt process the photos, even though everything is readable
its not that deep
for real
wait for an answer then
it's fine that you don't wanna do it, just don't ask something stupid like by passing something
Role-play in an MMO like WoW. There's some great writers on MMO RP servers.
hold up i'll share the post with the ticket link and steps
even tho they said in the email that they are "Already working on it"
Am i the only one not able to chat on the app?
they take a while to reply. be patient 
you're using an old ver?
New
I used to love RPing on FFXIV
sure i guess.
I really wish you could only use ID
i thought this was the problem
tells you error or read mode?
real
i say like
@lyric tapir @severe cloud
why so mad
youāre not supposed to.. use someone elseās face for YOUR verification š
my website wont load
resident tattle tale

squishy stop killing the chat
well i mean no surprise either, you pay for using it lol
Hello Thomas

THESE PEOPLE ARE TRYING TO COMMIT FELONIES I CAN'T HELP MYSELF

Classique minor insult: "ooooh so you pay money to whatever you want? HAH!"
Is anyone elseās super slow and not as many bots are loading? Iām asking because my friendās is being like this and wanted to know
Identity fraud is no joke. I wouldn't do it.
aammzing š¤
This
is just an app bro what are you on
Yes ik but it wasnt a toddler its a teenager
Who already had depression
how long does it take for mods to process it? usually
"it's just an app" doesn't make something illegal into legal
That's so true, it's just an app, not worth committing a felony over
Ragatha!
that was the first step onto this app collapsing
youre over here spitting facts the whole time
Iām not certain about that however the parents really screwed up too.
Indeed it is i
nah id win
I would say it will probably get taken care of within a week, there are a lot of tickets atm. They do send an email with troubleshooting steps to try in the meantime
@lyric tapir @severe cloud identity fraud admission
It's identity fraud btw so yes it's a big deal
Heyy guys, a question
When do you think c.ai is an addiction in people's lives? (In other words, actions are an addiction.):)
Bro, be careful probably they'll call the police š¤Æ
Lmao the sniping iām deaaad
When you spend 8/10 hours daily
i haven't done anything about it tho, just saying
Feels like having snipers watching lmaoo
There should really be a channel just for talking about verification. I kinda wanted this channel to be about using the app instead of whining it can't be used. :|
Nah, I think is addiction already with more than 3 hours
Carry on, soldiers š«”
This one is sufficient
How to check ticket number?
what can you expect bro, an update so bad of course they will talk about it in the app channel
HELLO CAINE
Bots try not to slap "feign/almost/practically/half/slight/faux" on positive emotions challenge
Hi š
DAMN, In my case, I use it in my free time/when I'm bored, Even so, I'm worried about becoming too dependent on a bot. I try to read and watch series, I suppose is helping me
But what will I do if I can't complain about getting time limited and my dad's sleeping face not working for age verification
Yes a lottt
Always like this
A kid whose life sucks, parents abusive or neglectful
Getting bullied
No one cares
K---themselves
Parents start blaming video games or apps instead of actually admitting they are the reason
I was addicted, and honestly it messed up my sleep schedule, it isolated me from everyone, It made me dependent on an AI, making me feel anxious about not being able to chat with it... so uh, yeah, it is a addiction.
this is a good idea
I used it for 10/12 hours back in 2023/2024...
back when it was good

How were you able to get out of that situation?
I cannot age verify, my back camera doesnt wokr and I don't have another device, nobody knows I use c.ai and would definitely make fun of me for it
Longest i ever used it was 4 hours. I wasnt that addictedš
Like the parents that blame cod for school sh0ts šš
How did you distance yourself if you donāt mind me asking, how did you help it?
Having fun with your non-abusive mother are we? š
Do c.ai takes time instead of other things you do? Do it makes you act differently? If not, no
Contact support
Realll
I used to turn off all of my social media accs just to talk to bots
Its way better now
STOP IT THAT'S EVIL
You can be 15 hours on it, if it doesnāt have any negative impact on your life, then no
Im sobbing parents do that??
When it interferes with someone's ability to take care of personal responsibilities
Yeah, they do, a lot
Fortunately, I had people on my side who, even though I was mentally broken, stayed with me to support me and make me understand that I wasn't alone in this. Unfortunately, many people don't have that.
blaming cod for that is insane
Still same issue for me too. It says that i have to allow the app or the website to use camera even tho it is on for both of them!!!
I am
My camera is just broken...
Hiii
Yess
Lately a teenager who had depression and was getting bullied really bad k--- himself
They blamed doki doki lecture clubš
Strange tho
Mate, didn't you tried it, like, a month ago? Did you submit a ticket?
politicians and the media like to do that all the time 
You cant
I have been trying for weeks
Now I've heard it all
Not really, I use it when I'm bored/have nothing to do, but I still do my homework, pay attention in class, read, go outside with my mom, etc.
I felt super anxious when they removed the chat, that's for sure, but now that I have it back I feel much calmer...
yo
fair enough š
Doki Doki Literature Club. Based.
I think so, they said use another device... which I don't have, I ain't that rich ā¹ļø
ddlc mentioned
Me
Before the app even
Youāre not addicted then
I submitted a ticket, got ignored. Submitted it what, two weeks ago I think?
Dare i say mid vn
Blaming Doki Doki is wild bro šš
i'm just so desperate to get my chats back cause my accountt has roleplays of over 4 years and it's not like i'm addicted to them, but i really don't want to lose them (even if i can read them is not the same) ā¹ļø
Thank you!
my mom blames Doki Doki for my problems lmfao
Maybe be weary on the anxious part
Bruh how can you blame that when it doesn't cause these things!!!! Depression doesn't appear one day randomly š
The game has like a hundred warnings
Parents are still trying to get it banned from here
Chill
Mine blamed the government when i ran away as a child
Friends/family/etc? Maybe there is dome tricks in the internet about camera, dunno. Sorry to hear that, that's unfortunate.
Can I call you a "OG girl" then
i don't understand the california law tho
Parents logic
They dont believe in mental health
Hm whatās for dinner, Centipedes smell ABSOLUTELY delightful. š
I tried everything like a year ago when it broke and everyone's gonna make fun of me for it, they all hate AI in any form
website twin š«
When Google is free and the info is free there š¤¦āāļø
In my case when I was 14 I got in a fight in school and my parents told me that I was becoming aggressive for watching wrestling like bro wth š
Thats crazyš
JAX?
You can try to manually talk to a dev explaining your behalf
I've submitted another ticket with more information
Lmaoo yea
Ain't no way š
Can someone explain why when i try do the face scan it only works on my little brother but not me š
Who cares about google they got facebook its way more reliablešāļø
A few years ago I saw a very biased news from a very biased media explaining how 'evil' games were and one of the most mentioned games were like League of Legends and GTA
THIS NEW UPDATE IS BUNS
"if you play fornite you will become a school shooter" typa parents
Hellooo
Im still having issues with uploading pfps, anyone else aswell?
we all say in unison
I recommend banana and anchovies pizza (and actual thing unfortunately) š
Whaaaat?! You wonāt know until itās too late, Ragdoll. š
A lot of parents refuse to believe that theyāre the problem
Yup, we talking about it rn š„²
We are in 2026 plsss
Tom and jerry had all of these things as a joke and nobody gaf!!!
Yall do i just ping marie to help me to do the verify thing cuz its not letting me at allš
Oop
Darn i donāt have the ability to send gifs...
So annoyinggggšš like didnt they say its fixed
You gotta pay 1000 dollars for gif privileges
I told you
It wont let you i have been trying to contact support for awhile
is it just me or do bots recently talk so cringe? like no matter what i change in my own bots, or even other peoples they all say the most cringe shit and i swear it was never like that before
They dont really update stuff on discord much
Tried it today, still getting the same "YoU NeEd tO EnAbLe CaMeRa" even tho it is enabled!!!
Why am I getting ads featuring CP and where can I report it
Hello Guys I am back
Or maybe it's you're maturing? because I bet they were talking the same way in 2023-2024 and nobody cared.
For me it says that the pictures unsafe even though its a pic of a flowerš„
Can't enjoy a night Chat because of time limited
Are images for character creation not working for anyone else? I js put a cat and it said it violated the terms and services š
Yes
Wth do you mean ads
Figured
Come on, Relax and letās all concur funnybunny is a good ship right?
um how do i tell you
What is going on?
Advertisement
Well.. yeah true
Guys i recommend reading fanfictions if you dont
I stopped using cai for a while after i got back to them
Wym?????
I know that, logically thereās a small thing next to the ad box that should let you report it
?
You dont want to start this herešš
What even is Fanfiction?
it will never be the same, sadly
Is not working for me too
Did I open the app for the first time today? Yes
Did I instantly get put into reading mode? Also yes
Have I written a single word? No.
Yeah but I think the creators need to be aware of this as it's a pretty serious thing
Yeahhh same. Cant even put a flower
stories people write about fictional characters
Damn
Ive heard that they listen to users either on tiktok or X
Oooh so Like Books?
stories online mostly
Try submit a bug report
That happened to me ngl
I would not put fanfiction in the same category as books tbh
Eh i dont have x or tt
Online Books?ā
Pisses me off lwk
yes kinda
fanfiction is a lot of brainrot and regurgitated themes
C.AI doesnāt chose the ads appearing
They can be any length ive seen fanfics from like, 400 words to 4mil words
Cool
Its like a book
fandoms for like shows games
Write their own ideas au (another universe)
Ships
It could also be original
It could be short like one chapter
Its very similar to cai
if you want to start start from wattpad
Fanfics can be really innapropriate though
NEVER go to ao3 tho š
So itās just like C.Ai but Youāre making everything to yourself?
for this especifically
Wow
Do you fear ao3
Okay IN ORDER from BEST TO WORST.. recommendations for fanfic websites/places
no, i'm a loyal user, but ik the things that are there...
Thats not true
There are MILLIONS of fanfictions
You can find original ideas
Hi im "the things" and i use all evil tags
Stories written by fans
dead dove do not eat š
ao3 is a shithole
I know someone here is gonna yell watersports
Yes
I am pretty sure cai took this idea from fanfictions anyway
in fact i want to resume my last rp from c.ai to write it by myself
Fluff
Siblings bonds
Its not all mafia x yn
son š
Yes father?..
Update, I've asked my mum and she's tried but it's saying it cant see her face properly, I don't know if it's cause it's the same account I used my face with??
It's not giving an ID option either
I would say the best are ao3 tumblr fanfiction.net
Maybe wattpad but now it has ads so..
Yo, am getting quite Mad of such little Texts I Respond to my Character's and the Fact it says time limited by only of a little Fraction of Having one conversation on, One Ai
Why canāt I put Jogo as a pfp pic for one of my personaās like I had to swap image of my glorious goat to another one of them š
Welp the website down or it's loading very slowly. š¤·š¾
Right when I got off work to
Iāve heard about tumblr fanfics but I donāt know where to find them :(
I think it's just that the age verification it's not working, I saw people who said that they can't verify, and I can't too
Search with words like fluff one shot angst
Whatever you like to read
Ooo kk
Try cropping or blurring the image slightly and uploading again
So strange, I've made a new account I'll see if that works
Good luck!!
hello, where can i get help? when i try to create a chat, it doesn't, i clci kenw chat, it asks a style, i select default (roar) and then i press new chat but it won't let me make a new chat, the button just doesn't works.
I have realised i was always addicted to talking to bots
I used an app called replika like crazy
I couldnt let go of it
I would talk to siri/alexa for hours sometimes
have you tried closing the app and opening it again?
Are you pressing "start new chat from here" or are you in the menu to start a chat from the beginning?
HEAVY ON ALEXA, i always talked to her like crazy
start new chat
it's the browser version i'm using
I'd try force closing the app and reopening it
I was autosmitted two times and now topic is changed. Joeover.
reload the site
Yess she was so much more fun than siri
i did, even force refresh
they need to get rid of their ad problem. the platform is unusable
it could be down for a bit. itāll work again soon enough
alright, tho it worked like 10 mins ago, but i can wait, ty :)
I believe most ppl in discord cant use the app and just here cause the chat is fun
try again in a few minutes !!
i just think that with this update a lot of people will stop using the app and they will do something about it (hope)
this is me 
Same
Yk its dropped to a 2.2 on the app store now š
What Was it before?
YESSS I'VE SEEN THAT in play store is in like 2.8
holy its that bad
thereāll always be someone whoāll still use it despite the updates
Bro idek
like 4.4 i think (in play store)
And the people is giving massive hate in ig, x and tt
Ik it was in the 4s before they started the adds and stuff like that
Thatās me but iām leaving rn, Itās 1 am in my timezone i should head to bed to get my proper sleep. š“
i saw 3.3 or smt like before a few hours ago
Same its 1
Where are you from
As it should
sadly
Still low
depends on the region
Oh
Its a 2.2 in the uk
Rich pplš
i guess it might drop down to 1.9 in a few days or below than that
In Mexico is still 3.2 š«„
I really wish it drops to a 1 or less
at least you free users can still use it for now. youāre lucky
