20 trying to quit, rant about what happened that made me wanna quit
Lowk I only got into chatbots cuz of societal pressure, but wtv. TECHNICALLY it wasn't character ai, just something similiar, but anyways. I'm trying to quit due to the amount of TOXICITY on there. Like bro the amount of times I've seen people do some WILD shit is crazy. That's why I wanna rant.
A while ago my friends were in a drama with someone, they said something stupid, doesn't matter, didn't word it correctly. - whatever. They fucked up. Majorly. VERRRYY HEAVILY. What I'm trying to say is after the drama one of my friends attempted suicide due to it three times, physically harmed themselves A LOT and after that they landed in a mental hospital where they got abused physically by the nurses until someone from their family stormed in with complaint and had them taken out from the hospital forcefully. Why did they attempt? Almost EVERYDAY they got DMS from alternative accounts of ppl with threats, gore, doxxing attempts, viruses etc. ofc they were smart enough not to click any links but OBVIOUSLY still bad. And I reached out recently to the person in order to get the bot of the drama taken down, one they were asked to take down but ignored since "it's archival" no buddy, it's a tool for harassment that made my friend want to kill themselves. Like yes. They fucked up. Doesn't mean you gotta remind them of that. Everyone has a MAJOR fuck up at least once in their life. It's not like they're Hitler, they said it at a terrible point in their life, and they fixed their mistake.
Worst part is in the comments they said it's "fishy" that I told them to take it down and reported the bot. What the fuck is fishy about me being terrified about my friends life being on the line??? Like I made sure my original wording had clearly stated "Im not blaming you. I just want to inform you before I take this bot down". And the comments are blaming my friends?? Like twin, it's ME who's reaching out. My friends don't know. If he knew, he'd attempt suicide again. Istg. These people make me so mad.
Word for word, in one of these messages the person said "I just want everyone to leave me alone" like excuse you, they also want to be left alone. What the fuck???
Anyways... Thank you for listening. I feel like shit. I want my friends to be safe but now I'm an "evildoer who's harassing someone" apparently.
