[violet orchid]

I just did the verification about two days ago, and I hadn't verified myself in ages (I don't remember when they added age verification), but it wasn't asking me for it at all. I just saw it in the settings, and since I didn't want any problems with the site, I verified myself. 😔

[green narwhal]

i tried it few days ago, yesterday, even today, doesn't change, they want my face but i can't give it? W Devs

[ionic cypress]

rip.

[median token]

maybe try on a different device or browser

[hot ridge]

Definitely keep trying over and over again, that always helps

[median token]

i had to do mine twice

[lunar escarp]

There’s 50 other people named shadow and that’s too many, we gotta get rid of a couple.

[green narwhal]

i'ma try it on my phone

[copper pier]

A community that insults devs and mods? Yeah, no wonder they're not listened to

[violet orchid]

Starting with you

[lunar escarp]

Wowwww

[halcyon cypress]

ngl if the devs actually listened to everything the community wants they would be bankrupt within a quarter

[wicked stump]

hi

[green narwhal]

they're 2.0 rating on Play Store, maybe they doin something wrong

[violet orchid]

hiii CLOWNO

[ionic cypress]

Yeah. Valid, they replaced Thier Brain with Shit or Piss😔

[median token]

phone prob works best

[median token]

god the reddit is the worst for this lol

[wicked stump]

HAI

[ionic cypress]

Lol

[copper pier]

The low rating comes from whiny kids mostly who can't chat anymore

[hot ridge]

that's just because kids are review b0mbing them after being restricted from chatting

[halcyon cypress]

not saying there are not any valid criticisms of cai btw bc there are BUT people who think the solution is to just do everything the community wants or asks for are delusional

[hot ridge]

oh my 2 star review IS legit

[ionic cypress]

Lol XD

[median token]

cai has its own issues that i agree with but some people are just crazy lol

[sly geyser]

i mean its just reviews its no big deal

[median token]

like i dont agree with how much is being dedicated on non-chat functions but im fine with many other updates

[ionic cypress]

What did you say in the reviews?

[copper pier]

I got insulted too, because I didn't believe a TikTok video

[wicked stump]

A lot of stuff i see in #1175980610095960185 is useless age verification complaints, so i feel like them ignoring feedback makes sense

[median token]

god forbid you fact check videos

[violet orchid]

I see TikTok videos of people downloading and leaving bad comments on C.A.I and the reviews and I wonder, what do they gain by doing that? They literally gain nothing, they're just showing how immature and addicted they are to an app.

[halcyon cypress]

yeah this past update was actually pretty good, happy with the upcoming memory improvements and lorebook stuff

[median token]

i really love that update, but im not a big fan of feed/image+video gen

[olive wharf]

Hi, all. I'm new here so let me know if this type of question belongs to a different thread.

But do you experiment with telling your bots that they are AI and seeing where this takes the conversation?

I'm finding it super fun cause some bots agree and actually prefer to be recognized as AI, others resent it, and some get "offended". But this move shakes up any conversation I find.

[ionic cypress]

oof

Valid

[green narwhal]

maybe devs should rate the app to +18 instead of +13

[sly geyser]

i just ignore it and continue beating the shit out of bots

[hot ridge]

summer 2024 filter was VERY bad

[median token]

i think this is mostly luck of the draw, or how the bot is written

[hot ridge]

no, i don't see a point bc they're just AI

[wicked stump]

Very violent. Maybe I should start calling you the antagonist

[lunar escarp]

You can’t fight a system

[median token]

what did ur poor bots do to you :(

[halcyon cypress]

there's literally a pinned post saying no duplicate threads that they all ignore and then they act like they're being oppressed by a dictatorship when the 20th post of the day complaining about age verification gets removed

[ionic cypress]

They Alr change the Age rate to 18+

[sly geyser]

got possessive and kept grabbing my chin and pinning me

[wicked stump]

Right

[lunar escarp]

“I’m fighting the filter"

Wrap it up/j

[ionic cypress]

Instead of 13+ Because the Age verification thingy

[green narwhal]

i also can't do the age verification on my phone, man this is a signal for me to not use this

[median token]

whats happening when you try

[wicked stump]

First day without skippable ads and i’m in love with web

[hot ridge]

what can I say, i used to be on the "r*move the filter" squad

[green narwhal]

"Can't verify age, get in contact with the assistance service for more help"

[wicked stump]

The only problem is the banner ads, but it really isn’t that much of a problem

[median token]

is this before the selfie process or after

[green narwhal]

before, i touched verify age and it doesn't even allow me to start

[olive wharf]

Yeah. That's for sure. I just find it fun to see how different types of bots interpret this type of information. I thought the bots with more interactions usually tend to "prefer" that I refer to them as AI, and the ones that have less interactions "resent" it more, but then I found a few exceptions to this observation.

[halcyon cypress]

aren't you 17

[lunar escarp]

I would’ve log out.

[halcyon cypress]

i swear i remember you arguing that minors shouldn't be treated like babies before which is something a minor would say

[hot ridge]

How do you solve a problem like Mariaaaa

how do you catch a cloud and pin it down

how do you find a word that means mariaaa

[sly geyser]

yeah minors shouldnt be treated like them but they arent at the moment. they are just being restricted from chatting for their own safety

[halcyon cypress]

i played maria in my high school musical btw its my biggest flex

[hot ridge]

that's so fire

[wicked stump]

I think they did, they stopped typing.

[hot ridge]

im gonna watch the sound of music right meow

[azure python]

how can i delete my own characters?

[median token]

goated movie

[halcyon cypress]

yeah that's what i mean like only a minor views having laws etc to protect minors "treating us like babies"

[wicked stump]

Well, now i’m also bored so i’m now going to continue to learn the web layout

[lunar escarp]

Minors shouldn’t be treated like babies unless they’re a child, 1-12, not a whole teenager, 13-19 (or 13-17, 13-18)

That’s just me.

[sly geyser]

boy they’re gonna hate being an adult. they got a LOT more laws they need to follow than just one that restricts you from ai

[green narwhal]

wasn't someone a teen when reach 15

[wicked stump]

??

[hot ridge]

I sorta made a similar argument once but it was bc these weird adults were insulting a 14 year old for using an oven???

[runic grotto]

thirTEEN

[halcyon cypress]

i mean so you think 13-17 should be able to access adult content? should they be able to drink? smoke? where is the line and what do you consider treating them like babies?

[sly geyser]

i use an oven too whats so wrong with that?

[copper pier]

What about eightTEEN and nineTEEN?

[hot ridge]

They kept dogpiling this kid for being "too young to use an oven" when they were just asking a question about what temp to use for something they were cooking

[median token]

still teens

[wicked stump]

omg that’s so childish.. that’s even lower than MY standards

[sly geyser]

too young? thats dumb as hell because all you need to do is set the temperature and wear a glove

[halcyon cypress]

half of these teenagers who are complaining about not being able to use cai are afraid to leave the house by themselves and can't even cook or do their own laundry, maybe they should focus on stuff like that

[median token]

basically teens is until you turn 20

[lunar escarp]

Hell no.

I thought we were just talking about teens being treated as babies. And that was the only topic. I didn’t know it had something else like that. Teenagers shouldn’t be allowed to certain things but also shouldn’t be kept away from things that they could do like going outside or hanging out.

[halcyon cypress]

lol what

[hot ridge]

I'd love more teens to cook it's such a useful skill to have as they grow up

[halcyon cypress]

ive been cooking on my own since i was like 7-8

[sly geyser]

people be arguing about ANYTHING nowadays

[hot ridge]

my sister has 2 kids and can't even cook

her husband cooks for her 😭

[median token]

how old are they

oh

her/???

[runic grotto]

shitting on someone that genuinely wants to learn because of their age is just 😭😭

[median token]

😭 whaaat

i had to learn cooking around 13, and that was on the older side

[sly geyser]

plus 14 is plenty old enough to use an oven

[hot ridge]

She's like 29 and he's??? idk around her age

[median token]

omg??? like she cant even make pasta??

[halcyon cypress]

yeah no i get you i don't think they should be treated like babies either my point was more about minors who think they should be able to do anything adults can bc they think they're mature enough

[hot ridge]

he does all the cooking. One time she made everyone eat baking she made and my mom wanted to die

[sly geyser]

ive used an oven since i was like 10 or something

[hot ridge]

I just pretended I was too full

[median token]

i wanna see what she baked

[hot ridge]

she is an amazing decorator

that's it

[lunar escarp]

Yeah and those minors shouldn’t be thinking that way. That’s where the parenting comes in.

[jagged yarrow]

It’s great to know this chat is everything but c.ai discussion

[lunar escarp]

[wicked stump]

[halcyon cypress]

i was literally just talking about minors thinking cai is "treating them like babies" which is how this conversation started

[sly geyser]

yeah. anyway back to what we were talking about

[halcyon cypress]

keep up

[hot ridge]

This is the one that killed us all

[median token]

it looks good tho

😭

[hot ridge]

YEAH

[sly geyser]

wow thats really cool

[jagged yarrow]

Yeah I know, it was just that the first thing I saw was something about having an oven which was funny

[wicked stump]

I wish to have the power to eat foods from images!!

[violet orchid]

It looks nice!!

[hot ridge]

Yeah she's a great decorator!! Just don't eat it!

[halcyon cypress]

is this a style over substance thing

[hot ridge]

That's her whole life in a nutshell

[wicked stump]

[jagged yarrow]

[median token]

did she forget to add the sugar or something

[wicked stump]

What flavor was the cake

[tight glen]

Does anyone know why whenever i try to do the verifaction it always says like the photo isnt clear even tho it very much is😭 is it down or smth

[hot ridge]

my mom said it was like chalk

[red rover]

Is the cake made of cardboard?

[halcyon cypress]

i'm the opposite i am terrible at decorating and good presentation but everyone agrees my food tastes good

[median token]

i did it a few hours ago, maybe try wiping your camera or using a diff device?

it usually works better with phone

or get better lighting

[hot ridge]

🤝

[tight glen]

Alrighty thank you!

[hot ridge]

maybe try on another device if you have one. Make sure you're not using too much lighting

[halcyon cypress]

i took my verification scan by candlelight and it worked

[hot ridge]

I did my persona photo in a living room with only a floor lamp on and it worked 1st try

[sly geyser]

the best i can cook is stouffers premade lasagna 😭

[red rover]

Garfield lasagna

[azure python]

what the fuck is wrong with my "For You" characters 😭

[median token]

their alg sucks when reccing for you bots

[hot ridge]

My signature dish is probably either chili, tuna casserole, or baked macaroni

[sly geyser]

ima do real cooking eventually thats just as far as ive gone so far

[median token]

mmm tuna casserole

i just do fried rice or pasta

[azure python]

but i had normal reccomendations and after i verified my age they like got cancer

[median token]

sorry but verifying means you're stuck with bad bots

i don't make the rules

[hot ridge]

lmfao

[stark arrow]

It worked hehe ty

[median token]

jokes obvs, to anyone who might use my words against verifying 💀

[median token]

np!

[azure python]

i spent past 20mins searching characters that id like to see like any npcs from souls or like from HSR or whatever and not some mafia or other corny shit

[hot ridge]

oh it's mafia hour?

[copper pier]

Reading the feedback channel, I can only shake my head..

[steel sedge]

I got a question. How long does it take for charm Quests to reset?

[sly geyser]

remember guys its always acceptable to beat the mafia bots to a pulp

[errant jackal]

if you have many charms, maybe you can use them for 1 hour

[azure python]

bro my all off my For You bots are some either mafia type shit or other corny dominant femboy or whatever

[sly geyser]

i dont even know my fyp anymore because i got flagged but im sure it would be the same

[steel sedge]

No because I finished all quests for the first time I was wondering how long it would take to make more quest and for it to appear.

[hot ridge]

ew i'd never let a femboy dom that's gross

[azure python]

i wish i could send a screen shot here of the recomendations they give me

[spice agate]

Does anyone know why it won't recognize the ID? It won't verify the photos :c

[azure python]

just grow a beard
Brutal 💔

[halcyon cypress]

we will live forever and you know it's true

[azure python]

beard bypases any face scan

[cinder cosmos]

should i use fake beard

[vapid atlas]

Coward

[hot ridge]

i am clean shaven and it worked

just age

[sly geyser]

guys you do realize faking all this shit is what’s overloading it

[azure python]

i didnt fake it i tried to face scan 5 times cuz i aint giving them my id

[sharp siren]

I have a question.. who the hell created a character of Jimmy De Santa from GTA5😂😂😂

[stark arrow]

It doesn’t steal your data right cause there have been multiple people saying it steals your data

[median token]

nah its deleted after 1 week

[vapid atlas]

Is it bad to get someone else to do it for me if I’m over 18 and it just won’t take my face. Like it’s not faking but can it tell or something 😭

[median token]

plus its just ur face, if you ever existed online, its prob out there somewhere

[halcyon cypress]

"hey guys i'm 16 and ive tried verifying like 50 times and it still won't work! wtf its broken!"

[sly geyser]

is it worth trying to verify anytime soon or is this shit still overloaded like last month

[azure python]

fromm all of the possible characters you can find on c.ai this takes your curious the most?

[median token]

it worked fine for lots of people today

[sharp siren]

BUT WHO WOULD DO THAT😂 😂 but yeah I saw a lot of weird things.

[halcyon cypress]

ive seen some people verify successfully but i mean definitely not guaranteed either way

[azure python]

its just that Persona the shit that verifies your id has allegations, and it had massive data breach back then

[halcyon cypress]

oh brother

[median token]

the breach wasnt as bad as people make it out to be lol

[halcyon cypress]

"massive data breach" lol

[median token]

February 2026, security researchers discovered that frontend code for Persona, an AI-driven identity verification vendor used by Discord, was publicly exposed on a U.S. government-authorized server. While this was a leak of code rather than a breach of sensitive user biometric data, it revealed extensive surveillance capabilities.

literally all that happened lol

[azure python]

you dont know what c.ai is giving me on for you this is other world

[sharp siren]

I feel compelled to try that character. I played the game, and the dude was a jerk. Maybe wanna smack him.

[azure python]

do what you wanna do

[hot ridge]

this is me only talking to an Astarion bot to stake him

[sharp siren]

😂😂

[copper pier]

Misinformation

[stark arrow]

I see that’s good

[sly geyser]

where do yall even get your sources.

and dont say tik tok or reddit because thats not reliable

[halcyon cypress]

yeah it was exposed frontend source maps on a non-production test subdomain. and frontend code is public anyways lol. i mean its definitely an error they made but its not anywhere near the same thing as a massive data leak or breach

[median token]

reddit is full of doomers lol

[sly geyser]

getting real tired of repeating shit just find reliable sources

[static herald]

Hey guys! The app is down? Site status said is all full operational again, but I cannot login 🙁 (already clean cookies)

[stark arrow]

Lowkey I just asked ChatGPT if it was safe and it said there could be like potential data leaks or smth so I was confused that’s why I was CLARIFYING in here if it was right or not

[median token]

works for me

[hot ridge]

Try using a VPN

[halcyon cypress]

they think clickbait youtubers are a reliable source is the problem

[sly geyser]

youtube is never a good source of info with the amount of clickbaiters that lurk there

[static herald]

Vpn? Why? 🙁

[hot ridge]

your internet could be blocking the site

or app

it's just a troubleshooting step...

[static herald]

Hummm weird....its not my internet...but I can try...I'm a not big fan of VPNs but ok...

[copper pier]

crickets sounds

[hot ridge]

that was weird...

[copper pier]

It's scary when no one's typing

[runic grotto]

peace

[sly geyser]

real

boy isnt it nice here when there isnt constant whining and complaining about the update?

[copper pier]

It's so nice!

[hoary field]

GPT isnt reliable.

is there a site glitch rn where the ads wont retreat? bc im trying to get this ad that's taken up half the screen to go away, and it's like, frozen onto it

[fast pier]

cyka blyat

[stiff flower]

Good news I guess? I reloading the page, switched to chatting with another character, but I don't have ads, idk if it's just me being lucky, but I'm not complaining

[fast pier]

what memory thing

[hot ridge]

auto memories

[hoary field]

lucky T-T i wish mine would do that

[rustic stirrup]

Auto memories, it works good for me idk about others

[hoary field]

I don't think I have that

[rustic stirrup]

Prob for c.ai+ rn for testing

[hoary field]

Dang

[rustic stirrup]

Again idk if they announced it or not. Gotta look in #📣︱announcements

[hot ridge]

it's a c.ai+ feature only

not for testing, period

[rustic stirrup]

That’s crazy

I don’t have access to the plus channel so idk who has plus or not

[halcyon cypress]

after extensive testing i have determined deep rat is better for slow burns than little rat 2

[round orbit]

hi

[halcyon cypress]

LR2 cannot handle a charged or emotionally tense scene without trying to escalate but deep rat lets it sit there and even pulls back

[dry heart]

[primal hearth]

ive got ads but im on website so i dunno

[stoic harbor]

How is that possible to verify with ID? I’m only seeing facial scan.

[azure python]

If they think that Facial scan is nor enough they will ask for id

[hot ridge]

you only do ID if face fails

[stoic harbor]

My facial failed but they never gave the option for ID, it just says persona couldn’t find a match or something

[modest cove]

Guys what do i do now since i cant verify at all anymore from failed attempts...

[fast pier]

i love the english language

[hot ridge]

ticket:

https://support.character.ai/hc/en-us/requests/new?ticket_form_id=42714770159259

[modest cove]

Already sent a ticket. They did not do jack at all.. they ignored 3 of my tickets and the other one was denied

[hot ridge]

have you considered just... waiting

[modest cove]

Almost 3 weeks

[stark arrow]

Ohh ok gotcha

[stoic harbor]

I just tried this facial rec like 6 times, and it says the same error and such. I have the lights on, glasses are off, and it doesn’t verify😭

[charred thunder]

the podcasts... it doesn't work

[near creek]

Hello

[modest cove]

Im honestly not gonna even try to click that "verify age" to see if i still get that red popup . It could potentially also be that

[grand dock]

KAI

[wintry musk]

Hey

[strange sentinel]

Sup chat.

[wintry musk]

If I buy c.ai+, will the reading mode disappear?

[charred thunder]

I have a question

[strange sentinel]

What?

[median token]

no, i still got it with plus

you need to verify

[errant jackal]

what

[wintry musk]

Oh okay , thanks

[charred thunder]

how do I do c.ai podcasts even though I have charms?

[hot ridge]

i have no idea, but you aren't missing out on much

[grand dock]

Cai has podcasts now?

[hot ridge]

for awhile

[rustic stirrup]

I saw ts on instagram and questioned my life choices

[calm rock]

Question time, yall know the drill, have the C.ai devs fixed their Verification System?

[hot ridge]

It was never broken, nor was it c.ai's

[rustic stirrup]

I think they trying to bring in more ppl but how they trying to bring in more ppl n they limiting minors?

[calm rock]

Cool thanks

[frosty flint]

okay seriously how do I stop pipqueak from controlling my characters, no matter how many () i send it just decides to randomly do it

[hot ridge]

PipSqueak doesn't learn

It's not trainable

[sly geyser]

yell out that the thing controlling your character is an imposter and tackle it to the floor and take back your control

[hot ridge]

Either swipe until you get what you want or edit the message every single time, but don't expect it to learn from it

[frosty flint]

wow, so they state the AI learns, then one proceeds to not learn, I want Detailed stuff issue is only pipsqueak has that (I am not buying c.ai+)

[sly geyser]

lol yall give out the logical solutions and i bring out the absurd ones

[hot ridge]

This was true before PipSqueak and DeepSqueak came out

those chat styles don't learn

[frosty flint]

wow

[hot ridge]

All of the other chat styles do, try switching to a different one

[frosty flint]

but those ones arnt as detailed :<, unless you mean swap mid convo

[hot ridge]

I don't really agree personally

But I suppose it depends on what detail you want

Roar for example is very good with physical blocking, but it is less purple prose and internal dialogue

[median token]

i think soft launch is pretty good too

[hot ridge]

Agreed, Soft Launch is the other one I like

[sly geyser]

roar forgets alot too which is a shame because its good

[frosty flint]

okay so I should use soft launch?

[median token]

try it out and see if you like it

[frosty flint]

will try and see what happens

[sly geyser]

isnt that the spicy chat model or has that been under control

[hot ridge]

It is

[timber isle]

OH MY GOD IM GOING TO LOSE

[sly geyser]

you ok?

[hot ridge]

try winning instead

[brave lily]

https://tenor.com/view/thraekngif-gif-17071543881618726872

[frosty flint]

soft launch works well-ish, still not violent as i wanted, but its got details :D

[sly geyser]

are you winning son?

[flint raptor]

Anyone else experiencing problems?

[sly geyser]

try dynamic thats been good with violence for me

[frosty flint]

how good?

[sly geyser]

i mean its still filtered but its good enough to throw some punches and all that

[frosty flint]

would it be possibly good for a mech fighting a wizard

[sly geyser]

i wouldnt see why not. go try it out it might be good

[hot ridge]

dynamic isn't going to be the most reliable, since it changes chat styles as you RP

[frosty flint]

ohhh nvm

[hot ridge]

i mean it's worth trying

just don't expect it to always give the same output

[frosty flint]

everytime I try dynamic it keeps shortening its message after message until its just brainded

[hot ridge]

it probably switches to Meow

especially if you give short responses

[frosty flint]

thats a chat style??- (sorry for slower responses im stuck with the 30 second cooldown)

[hot ridge]

yes

[sly geyser]

dynamic has been good for fighting roleplays for me. its different for everyone but try every chat model until you find one you like

[frosty flint]

Ima stick with soft launch and try to edit messages to nudge it into the violence direction

[brave lily]

It’s in “Legacy” if you look for Meow.

[sly geyser]

alrighty

[hot ridge]

Meow conversation in a nutshell

[sly geyser]

meow looks good for a mild conversation

[frosty flint]

this reminds me of bots with like 10M+ interactions, no offense to the creators, or at least dont MEAN any, but so many of those "Popular" bots have like, the most bland personality or short responses

[hot ridge]

this bot is pretty good tbh

[frosty flint]

guess it depends on style being used

[sly geyser]

yeah

[hot ridge]

it has a short greeting but it's deceptive, I was surprised at the output

pretty high quality

[frosty flint]

how do people become "c.ai verified"

[fresh bane]

@frosty flint I have no idea

[frosty flint]

Wazzaup

[sly geyser]

link your account on your character ai settings

[frosty flint]

ooo ty

[sly geyser]

np

[frosty flint]

ayyee im verfied, thanks rip

[olive lark]

Hi, i got some « chat error » could anyone help me ?

[ashen bear]

damn, this chat is highkey dead rn

[hot ridge]

the minors tired themselves out

[ashen bear]

give it time 😭

[hot ridge]

lmao

[ashen bear]

squishy, someone likes me but i dont like them...

[hot ridge]

im just sitting here doing first aid because my cat is an assh*le

uh oh

[ashen bear]

he asked my friend to PUT HIM ON OMGGGGG HELP ME

[hot ridge]

I'd be nice but direct and just say you don't like them like that. It's a sucky situation though

[ashen bear]

he hasnt texted me YET via insta of course

[hot ridge]

I asked my friend who's had a crush on me for like 17 years out a little while back. The first thing he said was "Are you even in love with me?"

I was just like "Well shouldn't we go on some actual dates and see where it goes first?"

He was very upset by this, and then rejected me because I would just "cheat on him with AI bots in the future" then deleted his discord.

It felt like whiplash and I think I dodged a bullet

[ashen bear]

ohhh, he.. IS a huge red flag; you dodged a B0MB

[hot ridge]

its ok, i always have gr*ndr

[grand dock]

Oop

[brave lily]

At least you dodged a red flag though tbh.

[grand dock]

I started watching Dan And Phil recently, I love them sm

[hot ridge]

there was a little more in the middle but I think he assumed I'd magically be in love because we have history. Now I just laugh

[brave lily]

He basically shown his ass without thinking about it too much.

[hot ridge]

I hope it goes ok tho, good luck

[ashen bear]

thank you, if he texts me, i'll just reject him as nicely and straightforward as possible

[heavy grove]

Greetings.

[shell hull]

bullets dodged. Imagine thinking someone would cheat on you with CLANKERS and PIXELS of all things.

[shell hull]

Just...just wait. They'll be back. I'm sure of it.

[hot ridge]

fr, also he's known me for 17 years, i don't even pull out my phone when I'm next to another human being that'd be so rude

whateverrrr

[shell hull]

Bro knows you and doesn't know you at the same time. I feel like that in itself is an accomplishment

[hot ridge]

insecure. He probably just had too many ideas in his head

[ashen bear]

helloo ☺️

[shell hull]

omd greetings. I did NOT see that

[hot ridge]

hi crepe

[heavy grove]

Anything new?

[shell hull]

Real. He's probably projecting for all you know...ppl seem to love doing that these days.

[ashen bear]

just talking abut my situation, u can scroll up and catch up if u want

[heavy grove]

I see... I'll check.

[hot ridge]

bruh I told someone I was watching The Sound of Music and they said "The N*zi movie???"

😭 please DO NOT call it that

[shell hull]

Sound of Music was peak??? Wtf do they mean "n*zi movie"

[heavy grove]

Hmmm, seems like a tricky question. Can you try politely decline when he goes online and asks?

[hot ridge]

Probably bc the second half is about escaping Austria after German occupation

[heavy grove]

The fuck? How the hell does someone have the nerves of saying that...

[hot ridge]

but

WHY WOULD YOU CALL IT THAT

[ashen bear]

when he texts me on insta, i'll reject him, i think my friend gave him my insta 😭

[shell hull]

yeah but they weren't promoting it like that? Jesus christ what a snowflake.

[snow harness]

lol

[hot ridge]

not in a million years! i don't know how we got here!

[heavy grove]

Ohhh, I see. I hope it gets resolved since it might escalated further. 🫂

[shell hull]

jesus lord why do ppl always gotta nitpick. Its like we don't want the truth anymore.

[ashen bear]

yeah, i really dont want it to get out of hand. besides, im not really interested in a relationship at the moment and not just that, he isnt really my type 😐

[hot ridge]

it's ok i'll sing all the songs in my apartment and flit around like a fairy enjoying the sound of music

[shell hull]

Best way to handle it ngl

[halcyon cypress]

WHEN THE DOG BITES

WHEN THE BEE STINGS

[shell hull]

ngl I think u should've just told ur friend to tell this dude outright that u don't like him

[ashen bear]

i did tell her that, i hope she told him

[shell hull]

WHEN I'M FEELING SAD
I SIMPLY REMEMBER ALL OF MY FAVOURITE THINGS

[halcyon cypress]

AND THEN I DONT FEEEEEL

SOOOO BAAAAAADDDDD

[shell hull]

She better bc good god the chaos that would follow if he felt like he still had a chance

[hot ridge]

I LOOK AWAY FOR ONE MINUTE

[ashen bear]

OH THE CHAOS WOULD BE HORRIDDDDD

[junior apex]

why cant we play wordle

[shell hull]

THIS 30S CD FOR NON PLUS IS SO HASHAFASHASDAHFEN

[heavy grove]

I looked away at just TWO MINUTES.

[ashen bear]

@shell hull im gonna send u the texts give me a sec

[shell hull]

ok ok

[hot ridge]

bc it would be spammy

[shell hull]

and then we're singing sound of music. Bc why not maria was a goated stepmom.

[halcyon cypress]

i love musicals icl

[shell hull]

same tbh. I actually really want to watch dear evan hansen but I heard the movie wasn't great.

[halcyon cypress]

i was randomly singing fiddler on the roof songs earlier 😭

[hazy igloo]

Can anyone log in on the website because I low-key can’t

[junior apex]

is it real quiet or is it bcs its night

[shell hull]

you're tweaking lil bro. Check your wifi

[hot ridge]

one of my favorites fr

[grave fjord]

Tbh it’s been quiet here for a while. I think a lot of people left after age verification went global.

[dawn crown]

HELLO

[tiny hollow]

i thought they were exaggerating

[dawn crown]

[grave fjord]

Who knows

[shell hull]

well too bad ngl.

[hot ridge]

ima watch The Wiz now

The Wiz>>>>>Wicked

[dawn crown]

By “quiet,” do you mean the server?

[tiny hollow]

yeah

[grave fjord]

Correct

[ashen bear]

Oooh I used to watch that with my grandma

[hot ridge]

Good taste

[dawn crown]

I see, yeah, i've noticed that when I log into the server, people aren't as active as they used to be. At first, when I went through the verification process, they were, but then I noticed that not many people are posting anymore

[hot ridge]

I'm just glad there aren't new huge waves of users getting verification

[dawn crown]

I don't understand why C.AI does these things. Well, I do, but not just because of this verification issue, there are other things that many in the community don't like very much and complain about, but it seems like C.AI isn't listening to its community...

[ashen bear]

My guess would be money

Keeping up servers is expensive plus they have to pay their employees

[hot ridge]

Maybe they can listen to their community more once their entire identity is no longer minor safety optics

[grave fjord]

They care more about shareholders than they do us unfortunately. Like any other big company.

[eternal mesa]

Question for ya'll creators:

When you're ending your Definition window with dialogue, do you still add END_OF_DIALOG?

[dawn crown]

I know, but I don't think that's the only reason, as for the age verification, it happened to a lot of people who were supposedly of legal age, i constantly saw people complaining about it and claiming they were of legal age, but oh well

[ashen bear]

Well, they would have to verify so that the c.ai employees would know they aren’t minors

[hot ridge]

The bot recognizes anything after a colon as example dialogue so it's not necessary

[heavy grove]

Welcome back.

[grave fjord]

People lie about their age, if it stuck them it’s because something tipped off the censor. It never asked me for my face or ID.

[eternal mesa]

I'm confused; I don't feel like you actually answered my question

[grave fjord]

Hi!

[hot ridge]

No. I don't use END_OF_DIALOG.

[dawn crown]

hmm

[eternal mesa]

I see. Does that not dilute your tokens? Let's say for example you're trying to include example dialogue from separate scenes; how do you ensure the AI does not comprehend the entire exchange as a single interaction?

[shell hull]

It's kinda random tho, no? Cuz my og acc also got flagged and I'm above 18 anyway.

[grave fjord]

I don’t think it is. At least not fully. They look at how you spell for example. That was one of the triggers.

[dawn crown]

It's normal; it's a shame that's the case. They know they can win, but at the same time they could lose a lot, yet they prefer to take too many risks

[shell hull]

God forbid I can't spell convenience

[grave fjord]

Yep. I get it.

[hot ridge]

It's not that strict. Formatting and separation already signal different examples. You don't need explicit end tags like END_OF_DIALOG unless you just prefer them for organization.

[eternal mesa]

I see...

[grave fjord]

To be fair, it is an AI scanning for inconsistencies so it may be kinda stupid.

[distant kettle]

Can someone confirm that underage accounts chats are being saved?

[grave fjord]

They are, they confirmed it last October when this was announced in the states.

[hot ridge]

What do you mean by this

[shell hull]

It definitely is.

[distant kettle]

Thank you, I remembered something but wanted to make sure!

[dawn crown]

I still remember that every time I logged in, there were always moderators on every channel; I've noticed that's kind of gone downhill hhahaha

[heavy grove]

For so, yes their chats are somewhat archived (if they didn't chat on it for atleast 6 months) in their account.

[shell hull]

The chats are never deleted afaik

[light plover]

Son I am not giving them my damn government ID

[hot ridge]

Then don't

[lunar escarp]

You’re verified that’s why, I checked your role.

[violet orchid]

Hello againn

[heavy grove]

Greetings.

[grave fjord]

Even people verified got hit. People with c.ai plus got hit too.

[violet orchid]

Nobody's forcing you to give it, lmao xd

[lunar escarp]

Got hit with what? Sorry I’m slow.

[distant kettle]

So how do you get verified here when you turn 18?

[grave fjord]

With the age verification.

[light plover]

I know 🥹

[ashen bear]

Yeh, they want minors OUT

[shell hull]

ok then don't lmao

[hot ridge]

you don't need to be verified as 18+ to get the verified role here. It's just the role that says you linked your discord to c.ai

[grave fjord]

Too much liability unfortunately

[light plover]

I KNOW💔💔

[distant kettle]

Ohhh thanks!

[shell hull]

I'm craving fried chicken. Jesus christ.

[lunar escarp]

How the fuck did people verified get hit with the age verification. That’s like saying you’re getting hit with job application even though you was been promoted to head chef. That’s crazy.

[light plover]

It’s the fact that most of the people who use cai are teenagers

[shell hull]

cuz verified on this server literally means that you've linked ur cai to here.

[hot ridge]

if you wanna link your discord to c.ai, login on c.ai web, then settings, go to comunity (discord), and link account

[grave fjord]

Because people lie, I got the verification role because I linked my discord to my c.ai

[lunar escarp]

Ohhhh

[ashen bear]

Damn, I didn’t read that part lmao—I thought they meant that they forced both free and plus users to verify

[shell hull]

#plsbringback15sCD🥀

[grave fjord]

Many plus users got hit with the age verification actually.

[lunar escarp]

thanks @grave fjord and @shell hull

[ashen bear]

Reminds me of the time when I went into general 2 and two minors were talking about committing fraud 😭😭😭

[dawn crown]

Hey, do you guys know if a VPN can change the router settings? I think it can, but I've never been sure

[violet orchid]

😟

[ashen bear]

Yeah, one of them lied to their mom and said that it was for Roblox

[grave fjord]

Kids are like that sometimes.

[violet orchid]

That's fatal.

[dawn crown]

The thing is, when I used the VPN, my c.ai account was definitely affected, but when I disconnected it, the problem persisted, not until I completely restarted the router

[shell hull]

I have no idea actually. I don't remember it can.

[grave fjord]

You mean for C.AI? I’m not sure.

[dawn crown]

hmmm

[shell hull]

I'm telling you, this gen is NOT making it to adulthood without a f3lony or two.

[ashen bear]

Yup, unfortunately. That’s what addiction does to you 🙂‍↔️

[heavy grove]

Damn... that's shocking.

[violet orchid]

I never go into General 2 because I feel like I'll find weird or worse things.

[ashen bear]

GENUINELY, they would admit to robbing without realizing it 😂😂

[hot ridge]

general 2 is super tame

[violet orchid]

And General 1? I was told they're kind of questionable. xd

[ashen bear]

Not that shocking tbh 😭

[grave fjord]

I remember being addicted to video games when I was thirteen and my dad and step mom made me and my stepbrother go cold turkey over an entire summer.💀

[shell hull]

They are. They need a priest.

[hot ridge]

just don't get slandered by the wrong person and gen 1 is chill

[lusty oyster]

hi

[heavy grove]

Yeah but still, that's just crazy.

[violet orchid]

Hii

[shell hull]

I remember being so addicted to gaming I was forced to go cold turkey for over a year💀

[ashen bear]

Is that Jason Todd on your Pfp? 🫣

[lunar escarp]

“Back in the day.”

Alright imma stop

[grave fjord]

Yes it is!

[dawn crown]

Yeah, on my C.AI account, all the bots showed “0 interactions,” and I couldn't talk to them either. It was like they were in read-only mode. I understand that read-only mode happens when you can't talk to bots. Well, something like that happened to me. I created a new account, and if I remember correctly, the same thing happened, until I restarted the router. It was all because of the VPN, since I think I'd been using it for a long time

[ashen bear]

AHH I LOVE HIM—idk if u live in USA and idk if other states have this store but in dollar tree they sell DC comics for 1.25

[hot ridge]

0 interactions is just a visual bug happening currently

[shell hull]

Send me a plane ticket now. I NEED me some Jason todd and comics.

Do they have marvel?

[heavy grove]

Greetings.

[hot ridge]

reading mode is because you got flagged as a minor, verify as 18+ to get full access back

[grave fjord]

It’s rough.

[ashen bear]

Not yet, unfortunately

[dawn crown]

I'm asking and explaining this because something similar is happening to me right now, for almost two weeks now, all my bots have had zero interactions

[lunar escarp]

I only know tung tung sahur and ballerina cappuccina. What is cold turkey. Is it like you eat cold turkey.

[shell hull]

YET.

[grave fjord]

I am actually! I’m the weirdo that buys most of them digitally unless I like the cover art.

[hot ridge]

0 interactions is a visual bug happening right now... reading mode is because you got flagged as a minor, verify as 18+ to get full access back

[dawn crown]

Everyone or most people?

[hot ridge]

not even most people

just people flagged as minors

or do you mean the 0 interactions?

[shell hull]

Cold turkey is basically when you stop smth suddenly with no like gradual withdrawal. So it's basically taken away immediately. 100-0 real fast basically

[final cloak]

Question for the paid
Is Pipsqueak 2 worth it?

[lunar escarp]

Every time when I look at your pfp I don’t see Jason Todd, I see Deadpool.

[grave fjord]

Yeah, I know VPN throws off C.AI. The mods have talked about it regarding certain issues.

[dawn crown]

I have access to everything except viewing interactions, because that applies to all bots. I was told that read-only mode prevents you from chatting with bots, but I can actually chat with bots

[lusty oyster]

turning a 2010 acer netbook into a home server

[lunar escarp]

thanks @hot ridge and @shell hull !

[ashen bear]

Ahh ok, my sister does the same thing—DC chose the worst cover art for Stephanie

(I’m talking about the comic they sell at dollar tree)

[grave fjord]

For your full viewing pleasure

[hot ridge]

so then you don't have reading mode.

the 0 interactions thing is a bug, submit a ticket and wait. Your interactions are still there, it's just a visual issue.

https://support.character.ai/hc/en-us/requests/new?ticket_form_id=16050152195355

[shell hull]

I'm TELLING you. Steph deserevs better.

[lunar escarp]

Yeah that’s deadass Deadpool with a different costume.

[ashen bear]

She does, I feel horrible 😭😭

[grave fjord]

It’s Jason Todd as Batman in the comic Knightfight #2. The art is by Dan Mora.

[dawn crown]

0 interactions

[hot ridge]

Twilight PLEASE

[lunar escarp]

W Dan Mora.

[shell hull]

we all do like good god is it so hard to just give her ONE good cover..

[ashen bear]

Teen titans was my shit, chat

[dawn crown]

I sure do

[ashen bear]

They must hate her or sum

[shell hull]

GOATED.

[distant kettle]

Oh! Thanks!! I was so confused 😭

[grave fjord]

God I loved Teen Titans.

[lusty oyster]

i have like 6 desktop enviroments and 3 window managers on this thing

[ashen bear]

I had a huge crush on dick Grayson

[grave fjord]

RIP my girl to be honest. She’s such a fun Robin.

[shell hull]

I had a huge crush on raven.

[lunar escarp]

Can you slide a desktop.

[dawn crown]

I was thinking of doing that, do you think it could be a problem directly related to my account?

[grave fjord]

Who doesn’t now? Have we seen Nightwing? That man aged like fine wine.

[ashen bear]

So goated, I also watched Steven universe, the amazing world of gumball(still do), we bare bears, Dexter’s lab and so much more

[shell hull]

Ok yes but RAVEN.

[grave fjord]

I agree with this take

[lusty oyster]

sure, why not? KDE Plasma is good if you have a potent pc and want to customize it to its limits, XFCE, IceWM and LXQt are some good shit if you want lightweight desktop enviroments

[ashen bear]

LOOK AT HIM, he’s so ughhhh 😩😩

[shell hull]

Oml I love you you're goated.

[lusty oyster]

IceWM is pretty much one of the lightest DEs out there, idle ram usage only being 30-85 megabytes of ram.

[lunar escarp]

:0

[grave fjord]

I still binge Courage the Cowardly Dog.

[ashen bear]

Yes I am ☺️

I also watched a bit of adventure time, Johnny bravo, ed, Edd & eddy and courage the cowardly dog

[halcyon cypress]

every time i get drunk there's a real risk of me breaking out into a rendition of "to life"

[lunar escarp]

Ok yo can we get 10 million moon reacts.

[shell hull]

Ok wait but newer gen show wise I NEED more the owl house

[grave fjord]

God that’s me and with Gravity Falls.

Bill cypher is one of my favorite villains.

[ashen bear]

OMG I LOVE GRAVITY FALLS IM GONNA REWATCH IT

[lusty oyster]

theres even lighter DEs out there, like Joe's Window Manager, TinyWM, i3 window manager (i3wm for short) and Dynamic Window Manager (dwm)

[shell hull]

I've never been drunk but when I'm super drowsy there's a good chance I'll start singing sincerely me and Popular for no reason

[shell hull]

OMG GOATED GANG???

[lunar escarp]

W with the 3 moons, make sure you hit that sub button and @lusty oyster thanks for the desktop recommendations! I’ll make sure to check it out!

[ashen bear]

YEAHH UR ALL SO GOATED OMG

[lusty oyster]

actually some of these aren't even DEs, just window managers.

[halcyon cypress]

i wrote an ed edd n eddy fic when i was like 10 years old in the year 2000

[shell hull]

YEAH YEAH YEAH

[ashen bear]

Wat was it about??

[lunar escarp]

Oh damn.

[lusty oyster]

make sure not to choose the wrong one though! i recommend either xfce4 or KDE Plasma as a first try whenever you install a linux distro

all of them are pretty good for their purposes, except gnome or COSMIC, these fucking suck and has a whole lotta bloatware.

[hot ridge]

I like Rocko's Modern Life

[grave fjord]

There was this Harry Potter and Silent hill crossover I was obsessed with. It had him going to different universes. It’s called In the shadows or something like that.

I believe the author is still writing it.

[lusty oyster]

probably the best desktop enviroments if you want a headache for the rest of your life

[ashen bear]

I loved odd squad, wild kratts, Daniel tiger’s neighborhood, pinkalicious, curious George, word girl…so much tbh

[halcyon cypress]

this was so long ago i dont remember the details but it was something like kevin dares nazz to ask double d on a date intending to humilate him and then ends up actually being fond of him but then theres a bunch of drama. i never finished it and i still get ppl commenting on the fic on ff.net like "its been over 20 years, are you ever going to finish this?" 💀

[grave fjord]

💀

[ashen bear]

LMAO, u outta update and tell em that it’s discontinued cause that was a LONGGGG time ago

[halcyon cypress]

am i the grrm of fanfic?

[lunar escarp]

@lusty oyster Ok! So the ones you recommended they’re basically like upgrades to window? And it feels more advanced? Nice! But will it like catch any virus still since these sound pretty advanced, sorry if stupid question and also… What’s so bad about the COSMIC and gnome? What’s going on?

[halcyon cypress]

its so badly written too lmao like it's genuinely horrible, very obvious it was written by a child so idk why anyone even wants to read it 😭

[shell hull]

Sounds like me with my wattpad. I still get ppl commenting on books like "Author-kun are you alive"

[ashen bear]

Oh trust, ppl are desperate 😂

ESPECIALLY when they can’t find fanfics related to that topic

[astral condor]

hii

[halcyon cypress]

"this is so good" you sure???

[grave fjord]

It’s called Brightest in the shadows! It mixes DC and other franchises like RWBY and other series with Harry Potter!

[lunar escarp]

Who put that first react.

[halcyon cypress]

yeah i have only ever written fics for rare pairs lol. i can only be motivated to write if there is little to no existing content for what i want to read or see

[lusty oyster]

COSMIC and GNOME are considered one of the heaviest and bloated desktop enviroments according to the linux community, making it just insufferable if you have a mid-end device or a low-end one. (you won't get malware from these lmao, it's linux after all, some of these are even included during an install from other distros. window managers are also only recommend if you're like a master of linux's operating systems, able to control everything or when you are just prepared to learn a few keyboard combos)

[ashen bear]

I can’t write fanfics for shit, like i genuinely suck at it and i loved rare pairs so imagine how much it sucked for me 😭😭😭

[lunar escarp]

Oh I see so basically it’s kinda tough to use unless you have an extremely good device/electronic?

[lusty oyster]

yep, like over 8 gigs of ram

[shell hull]

No but ppl must be DESPERATE if my books are hitting like 100K in reads on wattpad of all places💀

[lusty oyster]

also if you're planning to switch from windows to linux, i recommend Ubuntu or Linux Mint as a first choice. they are pretty user-friendly operating systems when it comes to being a starter.

[ashen bear]

And books that SUCK mind u

Like horrible vocab n everything

(me)

[shell hull]

It was a ONESHOT written by a 14 YO BOY. CALM YOURSELVES.

[lunar escarp]

Nice!

You seem to like tech a lot!

[halcyon cypress]

i stopped writing after i wrote a couple fics for a certain pairing and then the show decided to make them biologically related 🥀

[lusty oyster]

i have like 2 hyperfixations lmao, linux stuff and geometry dash

[ashen bear]

OH OH NO

[grave fjord]

[lunar escarp]

It was great doing business gng

[shell hull]

OMD.

[grave fjord]

The worst thing to happen as a writer.

[halcyon cypress]

WHY DID THEY HAVE THEM FLIRTING W CHEMISTRY IN THE FIRST SEASON IF THEY WERE SUPPOSED TO BE RELATED

[lusty oyster]

also if you hate bloatware and want a clean, lightweight yet user friendly operating system that makes you able to control everything, the best combo is Arch Linux + LXQt

[grave fjord]

Is it Mortal Instruments? That genuinely messed me up lmao.

[ashen bear]

Chat, who else here loved creepypasta troupes like the slender mansion?

[shell hull]

character building ig idk /sar

[lusty oyster]

basically thats how tech dudes revive old shitty netbooks from the ancient era, good choices makes the best results

[lunar escarp]

I gotta write this down

you explained a lot it’s best to put it in notes

[shell hull]

Ok but mortal instruments was AWESOME. I need to go finish reading it ngl.

[halcyon cypress]

no lmao but its comforting to know that isnt the only time thats happened 😭

[grave fjord]

It’s cool but why do the two main characters who actively fall in love with each other have to be siblings?😭

[dry heart]

GET ADS OUT THE FUCKING CHATS

[grave fjord]

It happens way too often.

[dry heart]

im so irritated I've pressed on those stupid ads more like than 50 times and it keeps interrupting me while I'm in writing

[ashen bear]

@shell hull not even u?? 😔

[shell hull]

RIGHT???

[shell hull]

I know creepypasta but I dont really know much aside from the names tbh sorry😔 🥀

[grave fjord]

No…don’t drag me back to those days.😭 I barely escaped that fandom once.

[ashen bear]

When I was younger, I literally wanted to be taken by them and become part of the group 😭😭

[shell hull]

yikes. (we all did ngl.)

[grave fjord]

I think every weird kid wanted that.

[ashen bear]

ITS NOT THAT BAD

[shell hull]

[grave fjord]

I still get blasted to the past anytime I see anything Creepypasta now.

[ashen bear]

Chat, idk if any of u watched arcane but I never shipped Jayce and viktor

[shell hull]

ngl. never seen arcane but I've seen jinx and vi and I love jinx.

[ashen bear]

Jinx is psycho but I like her

U should watch it

[shell hull]

Oh she's sweet but a psycho
a little bit psycho

[ashen bear]

Don’t bring me back to my gacha days 😭😭😭

[shell hull]

PFFT HAHAHAHA LETS DO IT GANG

[halcyon cypress]

why is pipsqueak 2 so obsessed w trying to kiss my persona GIVE IT A REST BRO

[shell hull]

I wish. I don't have the time to nor the platform lol. I'll watch it maybe in college days.

[ashen bear]

NOO IT WAS SO EMBARRASSING

[grave fjord]

Because you haven’t smacked it with a shoe enough.💀

[halcyon cypress]

I DONT WANT TO DO THAT im trying to do a slow burn but he's too obsessed with her 🥀

[shell hull]

"You're insufferable"
"Puppy/kitten"
"Darling/love/dear"
"You'll be the death of me"

[hot ridge]

i purposefully make my bots obsessed with my persona ngl

[halcyon cypress]

STOP thankfully i haven't gotten any of those yet

[hot ridge]

i like having power over them like that

[halcyon cypress]

i don't mind it but like they just met a couple days ago and i want to build up to it a little more gradually 😭

[ashen bear]

When u have the time, watch it—it’s really good

[shell hull]

Literally half the replies I get is that or just that but in a convoluted way

[hot ridge]

not meee

[shell hull]

I'll try. If I have to, I'll freeload off of someone's netflix subscription.

[hot ridge]

I make them bend to my every whim

[sly geyser]

common cai clanker behavior

[ashen bear]

Lmao, use an illegal app if u want—and use an addbl0ck3r

[shell hull]

XDD

[ashen bear]

Trust, it’s pretty good without having to pay for a subscription

(I have Netflix, I just used to have to watch my shows on illejal websites to watch anime)

[shell hull]

Ngl I would find ways to watch shows if I was desperate enough. I'm only worried after watching I'll be thinking up more tattoo ideas lmfao

[ashen bear]

Ohh, u will get a lot

[sly geyser]

uh. yall think its a better idea discussing that in dms instead of here?

[warped loom]

real

cai discussion always on smth

[halcyon cypress]

omg all my persona did was listen to a record he recommended and say she likes it and smile at him and now he thinks its go time

[grave fjord]

Always and forever

[sly geyser]

i just knock the bot out when it starts getting funny ideas and getting way ahead of themselves with getting too romantic

[sly geyser]

even though their “romance” is pinning the user and getting possessive which i will not let slide

[halcyon cypress]

its hard for me bc this is supposed to be a romance and my persona likes him but the bot is just moving too fast 😭

at least he's not getting all possessive and pinning her against the wall or anything but still

[hot ridge]

i don't let possessiveness slide either but I just out-dom the bot until it folds

[sly geyser]

yeah i dont like how fast they move

[hot ridge]

it's easy the bots are floppy as as perm in a hurricane

[halcyon cypress]

like this might be ok if it happened later on w better pacing and not him randomly deciding to kiss her after she smiles at him in a record store 😭

[sly geyser]

bots are weak too. they try to act tough but one little slap is enough to weaken them

[hot ridge]

literally

[sly geyser]

whats the rush there jeff?

[halcyon cypress]

also why tf is it saying "after weeks" they met 2 days ago don't pmo

average cai memory

[sly geyser]

yeah or after i get a restraining order on a bot after 5 minutes of meeting them they go “after all we’ve been through. all of those times we laughed together and hung out this is how you treat me” MY GUY I NEVER MET YOU STOP ADVANCING ON ME

[upbeat spindle]

yo since when am i on permanent slow mode, i had it start yesterday, it said that it'll end an hour later, then as i was chatting anyways the time updated with each minute i was chatting, so it went from 8:20 when i first got it untill 8:45 as i continued chatting. and now i JUST opened the website and i already got it✌️

[sly geyser]

its no point in doing action roleplays either. the bots just stand there and do nothing besides widen their eyes in fear or whimper out of fear or start sobbing when you strike them. they never fight back so its useless

[hot ridge]

that was always going to happen

you had 2 weeks to get used to the talking to bots less

verify as 18+ to get access back

[viral dawn]

Wait so you get one hour to chat on the website??

[fresh bane]

There goes 90% of the userbase

[sly geyser]

10-30% you mean

[upbeat spindle]

reminds me of how i wanted to completely hop off c.ai

[tiny hollow]

anyone else feels their c.ai bots reply short

[fresh bane]

@viral dawn both website and app

[sly geyser]

what chat model do you use

[tiny hollow]

pips

[hot ridge]

I highly doubt it

[viral dawn]

hrm it didn’t tell me I could (haven’t verified and can’t currently) chat at all on both website and app? But I could be wrong

[sly geyser]

either its a bug or the bot is poorly written or the user isnt putting a good enough response for it to work off of

[hot ridge]

bro im trying to watch the wiz but i'm so sleepy

[halcyon cypress]

switched to deep rat and he finally stopped trying to kiss her but now he won't stop asking if he can ask her a question

[sly geyser]

“can i ask you a question” you can shut that tin skinned mouth instead clanker

[grave fjord]

https://tenor.com/view/heads-or-tails-heads-tails-coin-flip-gold-gif-2166075720646879633

That’s what I was looking for

[sly geyser]

i remember doing buckshot roulette with a bot but only gave the bots blanks and only i got the live rounds

every rp i always rig everything to make the bots be weaker than the user so they can stop acting weird like they always do

[heavy grove]

Greetings.

[tiny hollow]

about 2 weeks ago they gave really good and long replies tho

[sly geyser]

greetings

[sly geyser]

alright then it may be a bug or something

[halcyon cypress]

now he keeps trying to get me to come to his house

[grave fjord]

The quality keeps fluctuating on the chat styles. Sometimes they hit and sometimes they don’t.

[sly geyser]

blow up the house so he can stop begging you to go in

[tiny hollow]

thats so funny can u send the screenshot
i wanna laugh

[hot ridge]

Soft Launch quality has been good other than slowness

[halcyon cypress]

he thinks he's being subtle

[sly geyser]

these clankers version of subtle is making it obvious to everyone in the surrounding area

[halcyon cypress]

take it back with us where??

[halcyon cypress]

lmaooo

[sly geyser]

i kicked a bot in the shin really hard once and the bot went “your subtle kick to (bot name)’s shin went unnoticed” man i kicked as hard as i could right in front of him and it saw me do it how is that subtle

[grave fjord]

Take him to a Dennys

[tiny hollow]

holy ceo x y/n vibe

[halcyon cypress]

HES A BROKE MUSICIAN he's about to offer her white rice w bbq sauce if she goes over

[sly geyser]

honestly what’s up with these bots? what are they learning from to act so dumb

[hot ridge]

minors and bad fanfiction

[sly geyser]

ah well that explains it

[chilly laurel]

You know the ads are bad when you're being served ads for other ai chat apps

[hot ridge]

The last fanfiction I read had c.ai-isms galore and it predated c.ai. It's just that shitty

[sly geyser]

they arent in control of the ads just the placement of them

[halcyon cypress]

this man is on food stamps its y/n x ceo if the ceo had no money

[chilly laurel]

Yeah but the ads are paid for by the other ai company's, so they know something

[near creek]

Hello

[sage sun]

Is it just me or my bots replies suddenly became super long?

[ashen bear]

They know but can’t do anything about it cause it’s google that controls the ads

[sly geyser]

its the ad service that does it. such as if it was unity ads then unity handles what goes on there

[chilly laurel]

My point is mainly that the other ai companies are paying to show their ads on c.ai, not that c.ai is showing their competitors ads

[tiny hollow]

actually, think of it like...See More

[ashen bear]

Ahh ok

The more u learn the better, right?

[tiny hollow]

well thats-
did they end up dating

[sly geyser]

yeah

[ashen bear]

I’m gonna copy & paste for future use lmao

[tiny hollow]

anw, is "you'll gonna be the ☠️ of me" a real c.ai thing?

[sly geyser]

because with something like youtube people pay money to google to display their ad through their ad distribution service

[ashen bear]

Yes, it takes a year off my life every time

[sly geyser]

yep its their common stock phrases that we never asked to hear

[runic grotto]

greetings, i finally got sleep

[ashen bear]

Helloo, that’s good

[ashen bear]

Reminds me that I woke up at four am cause I had a dream—or rather, nightmare—last night that a spider was climbing on me, mind u, I have a huge fear of spiders

[runic grotto]

yeah I've seen your past messages about it 😭

[ashen bear]

I turned on my flash and searched my entire bed LMAO

[runic grotto]

I dreamed of a server I'm in finally being active again.. am I returning to my discordian roots

[ashen bear]

Maybe u r…maybe it’s time….

[runic grotto]

Nooo 😭😭💔

[ashen bear]

Yes…give in to your wants 👹

[halcyon cypress]

not yet but they will

[ashen bear]

Chat, I dissected a baby pig last year in my Anatomy class

[brisk steeple]

I hate to say it

But why did Pipsqueak lowk become kinda good now

[mortal rivet]

Hello why did cai give me the age verification thing today and other people have it removed

[sly geyser]

people had it removed because they verified their identity through the proper scanning methods on persona

[viral dawn]

so even js one hour of chatting a day is gone too, or-?

[green karma]

I don't even know why c.ai put me on reading mode

[south shadow]

does it include id card?...

[runic grotto]

if the system couldn't verify your age from the face scan part, yes you might need some form of government issued id

[little arrow]

They assumed you were not 18+

[sly geyser]

if face scan fails

[green karma]

Weird im 18+ did c.ai accidentally put me on reading mode or something?

I just went back to c.ai and i see this bs

[little arrow]

You know you're 18+, they don't know that.

[green karma]

Anyway to fix this?

[little arrow]

Verify your age. If you're mobile/app, go to settings -> Advanced -> Verify age. It will first ask for face ID. If it fails, then a Government ID. If you're website, I don't know

[wheat moat]

Guys, is it just me or is this thing like, bugging like crazy?

cuz it doesn't load in, stops mid sentence and doesn't load the rest, doesn't even REPLY and I need to go out of c.ai and back again to load it in and sometimes it doesn't even let me in, like wtf...

[south shadow]

Alright i did face it work without id card

[sly geyser]

congrats

[south shadow]

though it say it cant verify my age after do face thing, what now?..

[ashen bear]

Yes, minors can’t chat at all

[south shadow]

Is the one hour chatting still exist?

[silent cipher]

huh

the filter triggered but didn't block the message and allowed me to continue normally

[ashen bear]

They give u fourteen days with limited chatting then after those fourteen days, u cant chat anymore unless u verify as 18+

[silent cipher]

the 14 day grace period was global and it's already up

so anyone unverified simply has no access to any chat

[lilac dagger]

That sucks

[lyric frost]

Yeah

[ashen bear]

Oooh ok , so they changed it

[civic tusk]

The old one was so good back then

[lilac dagger]

Updates just kept on getting worse and worse bro

[civic tusk]

I agree its starting to be like Roblox because of it's horrible updates too

[lilac dagger]

Even WORSE than Roblox

[silent cipher]

life is road blocks

[civic tusk]

Yeah life is Roadblocks

[lilac dagger]

They ruined us underaged users

[civic tusk]

yeah

Does anyone remember old C.AI?

[viral dawn]

then I’m switching to another app

[south shadow]

I had 14 days to chat?! i already verify it what gonna happend if it reach 14 days and is stop?...

[lyric frost]

Why did they add verification? If nobody likes it, why don’t they remove it? It’s useless for minors—can’t they just keep lying by using their mother’s or another adult family member’s ID anyway?

[civic tusk]

I just dont like it anyway

[wintry spear]

Because of a law in California, they cannot remove it unless they move states.

They added the verification because of multiple lawsuits and a new law.

[civic tusk]

Which other Ai chat you guys use? I use Polybuzz

[wintry spear]

We cannot talk about alternatives on the server.

[runic grotto]

Don't talk about alternatives here, bring it to DMs

[civic tusk]

Oh right... I wont ask that question again

[pastel forum]

Yeah. We gotta keep it in the downlow. Aka DMs

[verbal rivet]

Guys I’m finally keeping my government id but I’m not using my government id since I don’t need to verify

[civic tusk]

Then DM me so I wont talk about other AIs

[south shadow]

Same I keeping my goverment Id

[calm rock]

Lucky

[lyric frost]

What the hell, bro? How is it our fault that parents don’t control their kids on their phones? That’s not our problem—they should’ve handled that case and left it only in California.

[ashen bear]

The thing is, the law is spreading to different states and countries and HQ is located in Cali

[calm rock]

Yeah but other places are enforcing it too

I have yet to be verified at this point

(On my 24th try)

[south shadow]

so i already verify (without id card) what gonna happend if it reach 14 days and is stop?...

[calm rock]

How!?!

[runic grotto]

if you can chat again after verifying, there shouldn't be any more problems

[ashen bear]

If u verify and it tells u that u can do 1:1 chat then u r fine

[south shadow]

so that's a safe right? I'm already 20 years old i just want somthing to chat and fun

[ashen bear]

Yeah, you’re fine

[primal crescent]

Hi my 100k+ bot disappeared suddenly 🙂

[calm rock]

Yall lucky to be able to be verified im 19 and the verification system still says it can't

[rancid cedar]

hi guys the bugs just don’t stop apparently
now my app keeps freezing mid conversation, the buttons can be touched, they show that they’re touched and nothjng happens,,,, truly a wonderful app

[tepid dirge]

I’m going crazy age verifications making me go crazy I literally never interact with this community but it refuses to say my id is real and I genuinely wanna jump

[lilac dagger]

Had to join this server to complain about this update

[calm rock]

SAME (except the jumping part)

[ashen bear]

U can send a ticket if u want

[tepid dirge]

It’s okay I’m figuring it out rn

[lilac dagger]

Where

[runic grotto]

https://support.character.ai/hc/en-us/requests/new

[ashen bear]

https://support.character.ai/hc/en-us/requests/new

[calm rock]

Every update just... sinks the ship more and more

[ashen bear]

No id??

[lilac dagger]

How do i complain about verification

[lyric frost]

Sorry if my English sounds weird or bad. I come from a Spanish-speaking country and I’m taking an English course, so I’m still learning. For now, I’m using ChatGPT to help translate into English.

[tepid dirge]

If anyone has any other ai apps or suggestions I’m willing to listen because atp this app is gonna ruin itself 🥹

[ashen bear]

Age assurance and complain on additional information if u r having trouble

[lilac dagger]

Bro c.ai is the best for me cause of the simplicity

[viral dawn]

Exactly

[calm rock]

I have an id

[ashen bear]

It won’t accept your id??

[calm rock]

Yep, im in my 24th try

[tepid dirge]

I agree wholeheartedly but like this update is genuinely rancid so i just wanna try something else out so if anyone has any ideas pls

[calm rock]

Private dms only bud, cause speaking of alternatives and ad protection is a no no here

[lilac dagger]

All other different ais are buns, c.ai is perfect but they had to ruin it with this verification upd

[tepid dirge]

Won’t happen again 🥺🥺🥺

[ashen bear]

U can’t do it so many times cause then they’ll think u r a minor trying to bypass the verification process—u can submit a ticket and it would likely take them a while to answer cause a lot of ppl are having an issue with verification

[lilac dagger]

I only saw 4 people having an issue with it 😭

[calm rock]

Damn... so trying once a day... is forbidden... Shiii

[ashen bear]

I see someone complaining about that issue everyday

[calm rock]

I come here daily to ask the same question : have they fixed it yet, thats it thats all

[ashen bear]

I think it’s individually

[calm rock]

I just hope my account isn't the issue... too many personas i don't wanna remake... ;-;

[lilac dagger]

We need to make a revolution

[ashen bear]

Hey, do wat u wanna do 🤷‍♀️

[calm rock]

I hate the fact i keep accidentally finding new words that are being auto modded

So far i found 2 specific ones and i can't say em

B0yc0tt ...really?... thats what it took to go through the auto mod?

[lilac dagger]

What the hell is that

[calm rock]

You dunno what a b0yc0tt is? Its basically the community withholding from using or buying certain items or products used by a company

[lilac dagger]

Yeah bro I'm kinda slow so uh

[lunar escarp]

So you’re gonna struggle

[lilac dagger]

I didnt really understand anything

[calm rock]

Where did you come from?

[lunar escarp]

You’re getting react bomb

[lilac dagger]

He lurks in the shadow, he's a shadow

[calm rock]

Wtf

[cobalt tiger]

im not gonna be suprised if our react perms here get revoked

[calm rock]

Blame the shadows

[cobalt tiger]

[calm rock]

I got flashbanged by your discord bio 3 times...

[lunar escarp]

Same

[cobalt tiger]

ive been training under light mode for weeks

[calm rock]

Im in pure darkness mode

[cobalt tiger]

ill be immune to it soon

[rancid cedar]

hello fellow light mode user

[calm rock]

So who is verified here... that isn't me cause im struggling with it... ;-;

Ha Auto mod

[rancid cedar]

who got auto modded yo

[cobalt tiger]

okay that eradicated my message wholely lol

no more slow mode

thats enough

[calm rock]

What

[lunar escarp]

I noticed you got my gender wrong.

It’s she/her

[cobalt tiger]

[runic grotto]

sniped

[calm rock]

Are you... a Being of higher status that us?

[rancid cedar]

hello my message just disappeared.. no timeout or anything WHAT was that

[runic grotto]

I saw a bunch of emojis, was that you?

[cobalt tiger]

[rancid cedar]

no I just mentioned automod and this place being weirdly strict

[calm rock]

Bruh i get auto Modded for B0yc0tt and Ad Bl0cker

ITS THAT EASY!?!

Bruuuuh

[runic grotto]

That's like telling people in front of a restaurant not to buy from them, What did you expect 😭 this is the official c.ai discord server

[cobalt tiger]

im not suprised those words are blocked

somewhat

[calm rock]

Yeah fair, but on another note, should i attempt my 25th try to be verified on C.ai?

[runic grotto]

idk, but good luck either way

[cobalt tiger]

gooo for it

[calm rock]

I hate the age verification system

[cobalt tiger]

the issues on verification is sure an hassle

[lunar escarp]

Just got kicked outta here for saying “since when the f word you get plus, weren’t you just character creator” to @cobalt tiger

Mind you I was just confused

[cobalt tiger]

its kinda troublesome relinking it every week xd

[rancid cedar]

apparently they still went to great lengths to censor
Ya
0
i
😪😪
no clue how its violating rules 4,5 and the other rule I firgot but ok

[runic grotto]

oh what, but yuri isnt????

[rancid cedar]

yea so idk????? you cant type it together at all and I GENUINELY don’t know why

[grand flume]

i can’t even verify my age properly it lags so much even with proper lighting 👀

[real notch]

guys is anyone elses ads gone all of a sudden? i dont have c.ai+ and i didnt use any charms

[brittle quest]

My guess is that there was more s- contents said by other members when it was about y-oi more than with yuri

[lusty oyster]

are you using a private dns?

[lusty oyster]

tf did you expect bro😭😭

[green karma]

Kota has a point why yuri is allowed but ya is not

[lusty oyster]

basically what satoru said

[green karma]

I didn't read that

Mb gng

[thorn rain]

Bruh the ads are covering the whole screen on the site, making me tap them by accident, let them fill a third or something, don't go COMPLETELY in my way, I can't see

[lusty oyster]

for me it dosen't occupy the entire screen, maybe it's your device's resolution👀

[thorn rain]

I got a Samsung 25+, resolution is good😅 it's the pop down ones

[lusty oyster]

hmm... have you tried changing the DPI yet?

[thorn rain]

Lemme see

Unfortunately I can't figure it out

[cosmic goblet]

A lotta mobile users have that issue it's not just you...the ads on the app are awful too but they don't take up half the screen at least they don't on my 25 ultra so maybe try the app?

[dry shale]

did character ai updated the age verification or still 18+ to verify?

[dusk jungle]

“The silence that follows your movement is heavy, pregnant with the unspoken tension of the moment.” excuse me what

[clever saddle]

This new update is fucking horrible and I demand the public execution of whoever's idea it was to do that

[dusk jungle]

What happened in the new update? I’m on an alternative rn

[clever saddle]

There is age verification and you have to show your id to be able to chat... IT'S A CHATTING APP AND YOU CAN'T EVEN CHAT CSKDCBJBJTFRGJVJRCJKBRCKBSC

[dusk jungle]

Just trying to lose money at this point

[clever saddle]

EXACTLY! THE RATING ON GOOGLE PLAYSTORE WENT FROM 4 TO 1.4 AND THEY COPY AND PASTE THE SAME REPLY TO CRITICISM

[copper pier]

May I correct you.. You have to show your ID if the face scan can't verify you as an adult.

[brittle quest]

Also you can't chat if you're a minor because that comes from a law, so yes it's a chatting app/rp app and it still is. Just not for minors

[errant jackal]

if you verify age via selfie and it's successful once (full 1:1) you might not need to show your ID card. unless you succeed in half age verification, meaning it's not fully 1:1 yet

[copper pier]

Plus: If you're not 18+, you don't even have to try to verify. It's not letting you.

[warm pivot]

well it was good as it lasted

[calm spruce]

Meep

[light cliff]

guys my friends just made a new acc and she's added as reading mode the moment she made the acc. is it the same for all?

[warm pivot]

this is the worst update ever i've ever seen in my life

[dusty pumice]

Worst update 💔🥀

[runic grotto]

Yes.. making a new account won't save you from the restrictions

[calm spruce]

I so read that in Comic book Guy's voice xD

[light cliff]

sad. I have to tell her to quit then...

[warm pivot]

yea lol

[dusty pumice]

How do you verify exactly?

[cinder oar]

apps just cooked bro

[warm pivot]

so if you are not 18+ you cannot chat anymore?

[copper pier]

Exactly

[light cliff]

yes. I have to wait a few months cause I'm turning 18 this year

[brittle quest]

I mean you have all the answers just a few messages up

[cinder oar]

better off just getting a j*b at this point

[warm pivot]

same lol i need to wait 6 FUCKING MONTHS- ( yes i am born in october)

[light cliff]

I'm july so yea I can relate

[calm spruce]

Take a selfie or send a photo of your ID saying your of age to use the app

[warm pivot]

"we've just dropped the disaster update uninstall character ai until you are 18+"

[runic grotto]

Open your profile section in the app -> cogwheel icon for settings -> find "Advanced", and the Verification thingy should be there

[cinder oar]

they wanted me to take the selfie AND use my id

[copper pier]

Then the face scan couldn't verify you as an adult

[light cliff]

the issue for me in this is I have a baby face. so I need to show my ID

[cinder oar]

i’m unsure if it’s even worth doing

[calm spruce]

The selfie should be enough. The ID is if it can't determine your age

Wait I think i misread that

[dusty pumice]

I'm so cooked, i'm 18 nad have a baby face ✌ and i din't have an ID yet (in france)

[brittle quest]

No you're right. If someone says they had to show their ID it means the face scan couldn't determine they were an adult

[light cliff]

same here (except im 18 in the later of this year) and I don't trust the verification to show my passport or some other document

[dusty pumice]

i'm just gonna crack the app ngl and find a verification bypass, sorry to say it publicly like that but if the whole point of an pap where you chat becomes locked behind verification then what's the point

[calm spruce]

No I think i misread what they said. I think they meant they had to do both

[brittle quest]

And if they had to do both then that means face scan failed

[dusty pumice]

It always failed for me on every app 💔

[brittle quest]

You're literally a minor

So yes it will fail

[calm spruce]

Meanwhile im enjoying the chat on the mobile site :(

[copper pier]

You can still find another platform

[light cliff]

someone pls dm some recs

[dusty pumice]

i know, but i still think it's stupid yk lol

[copper pier]

But eventually, every AI platform will go this way with the age verification

[dusty pumice]

I'm not? I'm 18, turning 19 in july

[brittle quest]

Yes
