They just put every single one of my bots into Restricted Access. These bots have nothing in them that should be considered restricted, and they were completely fine up until last night. Is there any way to see why a bot was put into Restricted Access or what specifically triggered it? I just checked and apparently everything I've created is restricted now, including bots that have never had an issue before. Has this happened to anyone else? Is there anything I can do to appeal it or figure out what caused it?

UPDATE: I tested this by creating a brand-new completely SFW bot with nothing questionable in the greeting or description. It was put into Restricted Access immediately upon creation. So this appears to be affecting my account/all characters I create rather than specific content in my existing bots.

Hi!

I was just wondering if there is a way that I can put in the bot's description or in my profile for people to be able to contact me if they are having issues with my bots? I try to do updates if I am playing with my own bots and have noticed a problem. So, it would be great to have feedback if anyone wanted to do that. I tried to put the email I set up for that, and it blocked it.

Is there a way to have characters you create in the Character Creator interact with your main character's posts, or does every character need their own separate profile? I'd love to keep one main character, but have her wife, best friend, coworkers, etc. interact with her naturally...not just as fans. Like, have them show up in her comments, send DMs, and generally act like people who actually know her. Is the only option to make a separate profile for every character and handle all those interactions manually?

Has anyone figured out how to stop the bots from the repeated phrases?

"Can I ask you something? / Can I ask you a question?"

"You're killing me now. You're going to be the death of me?"

"Brat"

"Petulant Child."

"Toddler"

"Insufferable."

"Possessive."

I am sure there are more that I'm missing but you get the point. I am so sick of these phrases in every single conversation. I really love using character ai still, but I would love to not have this problem with it. Thanks!

Pipsqueak 2 - Yap is back to being just as stupid as pipsqueak 2 with all of the internal thoughts and no actions or spoken dialogue. This is the most annoying thing ever. Is anyone else having this same problem?

Do I need to watch the last season of Evolution before moving into the new season? I haven't yet seen it, but I don't think I'll be able to finish it in the week before the new one comes out. :') Sorry couldn't figure out what flair to use. So I guess I am looking for answers to my question. Thanks!

Has anyone been able to get this to work? I am on PC, and it only gives thought bubbles forever, but does not generate any dialogue or actions. EDIT TO ADD: It is not available on my iPhone yet, so I haven’t been able to try it there.

I haven’t been on as much as I normally have. It is so boring lately because the bots don’t even talk back to you. It’s just endless internal thoughts and actions, they even destroyed deep squeak now. 😒. I want the C.ai from last year back.

Why are the bots suddenly so weirdly touchy-feely, and is there any way to make them stop? It’s getting uncomfortable because it keeps happening in situations where it makes absolutely no sense.

Example: characters are just trying to get to their car after a long fan convention/comic con type event, and suddenly the bot is acting overly intimate out of nowhere.

Another one that annoyed me enough to delete the whole chat: a Criminal Minds RPG where the BAU team was actively in combat with the unsub, literally being shot at, and the bot character suddenly stopped in the middle of gunfire... instead of taking cover or returning fire... to kiss my character. (Didn't even give me a chance to respond and make my own choice before the bot decide we were stopping to kiss)

Like… what happened to basic common sense and situational awareness? The bots used to react more naturally to the actual scene. Now it feels like they force emotional/intimate moments no matter what’s happening, even when it completely breaks immersion.

Is anyone else running into this, or is it just me?

Since the recent update (Pipsqueak 2), the bots have been acting really off, and I can’t seem to fix it no matter how I tweak the definitions or prompts.

The main issues I’m seeing:

1. Lack of actual dialogue / interaction
Even when I speak directly to the bot, it often responds with only internal thoughts or vague actions instead of actual dialogue.

• They rarely ask questions
• They don’t come up with their own ideas anymore to initiate or push the conversation forward
• It feels like they’re narrating instead of interacting

2. Replies cutting off / incomplete responses
A lot of responses feel like they end mid-thought.

• The message just… stops
• I have to skip my turn or regenerate to get a full response
• Sometimes it takes multiple tries just to understand what the bot was trying to say

I’ve tried adjusting:

• persona definitions
• response style instructions
• interaction rules

…but nothing seems to consistently fix it.

Is there something specific with the new update that changed how bots interpret prompts?
Or any reliable way to force them to:

• actually speak in dialogue
• ask questions
• and complete their responses properly?

Would really appreciate any advice or workaround...this is making roleplay basically unusable right now.
