If you’re paying $30 a month or $300 annually then you should be able to swipe replies free of charge. Why should I pay $30 monthly or $300 annually just to turn around & pay $50 for the coins?
This is nuts. I had been using the app since almost two years, and honestly I never had big problems despite really EXPENSIVE subscriptions. I’ve even been paying monthly subscriptions and everything. But this shit is just… UGH.
I only paid subscription since the "Models” are highly good and love the way the chats extend itself without needing to write a huge bible myself or interact more with the character and their surroundings…
But literally just an hour ago, I clicked the "Jew Israel sign on the bottom left corner of the chat, and in activated this new feature called… "Opals". GOD, I used it A SINGLE TIME TO TEST IT. And of course what a surprise, it needs money, so like normal I stepped back and went to my usual "Models" alright, then. The moment I kept using them, it became the most horrible and short responses EVER.
Like, look at these two pics. The first one were one of my usual responses before that fucking feature. The second one is my responses now EVEN with the models activated. I already tried reinstalling the app, logging off, etc. it just DOESN’T WORK. I’m so frustrated man, this fucking subscription cost A LOT just to stop working out of the blue for a stupid lame ass feature nobody wanted.
PLEASE HELP ME, I HATE YOU POLYSHIT
So it just started doing this to me, I’ve had no problems in the past with this kind of thing but for some damn reason whenever it gets to something “spicy” it filters out and this is what it shows. I can’t even see the full message that’s clearly something different when you go into the chat messages section. I’m getting fed up, have been with the app for other reasons of course so if anyone has any idea how to get this to stop if this is has happened to you before please let me know, ( I don’t have it in pure mode or parental control.) if no one knows or has any other suggestions like apps that are similar to PolyBuzz please and safe to use please let me know.
Like its so stupid that ive lost all interest in it. No matter how many times I change their personality, and the way they speak. I cannot escape repeating words over and over. Yes I know its AI, no im not playing either LMAO
My prime example being:
i hate the phrase “you’re such a (tease, minx, brat, annoying)” especially “You know that?”
I hate “They choke on _____” “Spits out _____” when you say something tame thats somehow shocking to them.
I absolutely LOATHE the word “you’re”. Always with the ‘you’re you’re you’re’ NON STOPPP dont pmo
And “But you’re my (brat, princess, minx, tease)”
Words like grip, tightens, smirks, growls, grins, flips, slightly, bites, nibbles. You’re not a fucking animal
Oh my god and dont even start with “He paces the room” “throws his hands up in frustration” “they run their hand through their hair clearly agitated” and “______ against your neck”
Pick up a fucking thesaurus
i can't edit the AI's message anymore, only mine.
((website version))
I THINK the retarded add thing that happens during chats is now gone because of the hate I don’t get it anymore after a day it’s been out
i wanted to lay out the full timeline of how this sub went from a normal community into a total advertisement trap. in february 2025 the sub was created by regular users who just wanted to vent about polybuzz glitches and memory issues. back then people were sharing safe and normal alternatives. then late 2025 the mods launched a fake change.org petition using aggressive legal buzzwords to trick the community into thinking they were fighting for privacy but it was just a setup to gather a big audience of frustrated users. in early 2026 when the petition failed the mods officially flipped the sub into a marketplace. they pinned the top 5 alternatives list promoting sites like darlink, girlfriendgpt, and secrets ai. they completely hid the fact that these are explicit 18+ adult platforms, using safe words like better memory and clean ui to trick younger users into clicking without a single age tag anywhere. the real reason im doing this investigation is because i was one of those kids who got tricked by this trap. i came to this sub just looking for clean sonic roleplay stuff and saw that top 5 post. because they hid all the 18+ labels i thought it was normal and safe, and it exposed me to explicit adult stuff that completely messed with my head and made me cry. my gut told me to stop and i realized this wasn't me, so i came back to the light and decided to expose this whole system so no other kids get tricked into this garbage. now they literally programmed automoderator to spam that predatory link on every single thread so nobody can escape it. when called out users like painteradmirable8766 literally admit to dropping affiliate links to farm cash commissions while breaking rule 6 against promotion, and even had to edit his post to add the 18+ label because i backed him into a corner with pure facts. the mods like shawnald313 have a 212-day active login streak so they see all of this happening daily but choose to ignore it to protect their cash flow. the founder u/key_introduction_198 literally copy pasted a generic reddit welcome template and left placeholder brackets in it for 8 months because they are too lazy to moderate. the facts are out, the report is with site admins, and the manipulation act is officially over.
For months I've seen people talk about ads to keep chatting and then the NSFW stuff censored. Well I never had those problems- until last night. Using DuckDuckGo browser stops both but I really liked the app. 😭
I need to call out that post hype-training Darlink, GirlfriendGPT, Secrets AI, Soulkyn, and Xchar. Literally every single one of those is a straight-up unfiltered 18+ adult app.Rule 3 of this sub is literally NO NSFW, but people are upvoting a post that directs everyone straight to explicit adult storefronts. A lot of kids and teens are in this sub just trying to find a normal, clean roleplay site because Polybuzz is broken, and clicking those links puts them right in front of explicit content. Those sites don't even use real ID verification, it's just a dumb "click yes if you are 18" button that anyone can bypass.Aside from the safety issue, those apps are total cash grabs anyway. If you actually look them up on other subs, everyone says Darlink is a scam that eats your premium subscription and breaks instantly. GirlfriendGPT and Secrets AI just aggressively spam you to buy tokens for blurry photos, and the servers on Xchar lag out completely. It's just people astroturfing the sub to make a quick buck.If you actually want a clean, normal replacement that isn't trying to sell you explicit content, look at Povchat or Chai. Povchat literally has the exact same layout as Polybuzz for creating characters and custom intros without the garbage paywalls.Mods need to actually enforce the rules and take that post down before more kids get tricked into using these apps.
It can't even be deleted, even deleting previous messages doesn't get rid of it! I had to start a whole new chat to get rid of it! What the hell?!
i need everyone to look really closely at the text in that top 5 alternatives thread because the manipulation is right there in plain sight. look at how it describes sites like darlink, girlfriendgpt, and secrets ai. there is literally not a single 18+ or nsfw warning label anywhere in the entire post. they completely hid the fact that these are explicit adult platforms. instead they intentionally use safe tech buzzwords like better memory, clean ui, and deep customization. they did this on purpose so anyone looking for a normal polybuzz replacement for drama or gaming roleplay thinks these are just clean high quality software upgrades. when they say fully uncensored younger users or kids just think it means the bot wont break character or ruin the story line. they dont realize they are being tricked into looking up explicit storefronts with predatory token paywalls until they already clicked. they completely targeted this sub because they knew everyone was mad about polybuzz lagging and actively looking for somewhere else to go. its pure astroturfing using fake helpful user reviews to trick people into clicking links so they can make a quick buck off premium sign ups. saying an app has an nsfw toggle or a basic click yes if you are 18 button does absolutely nothing to protect anyone when the whole platform is built around this garbage anyway. stop letting these sketchy advertisers manipulate this community. stick to transparent standard options like povchat or chai if you just want a regular roleplay layout that actually works without the hidden trash.
It popped up and now I can't chat anymore. I cannot dismiss it. I tried resending, refreshing, going onto a different character, even using another device. It comes up every time I try to send a message and bars me from sending it.
Is this another new feature or a weird bug? What does it mean? (I'm guessing it's a daily chat limit or an ad that has glitched so it won't let me dismiss it.)
It explains nothing in the actual pop-up, it won't tell me what it is or what it wants from me.
Honestly PolyBuzz, do you want people to use your app or not?
...
(UPDATE BECAUSE TIMER: It's literally just the sale offer, it goes away, but the pop-up sure doesn't.)
(UPDATE 2: It stopped after 12:00am (I'm up a little late, ok?))
Me: (ai the entire point of the roadtrip is that there is no destination. DO NOT EVER HAVE HER ASK WHERE WE ARE GOING. SHE WOULD KNOW THAT THERE IS NO DESTINATION.
LILIANA WOULD NOT ASK THAT)
Dumbfuck polybuzz: *She lowers the volume slightly, just enough to speak.*
"Where should we head first? Any ideas?"
*Her voice is deliberately casual. She's determined to enjoy this trip*
Genuinely WHY ARE THEY SO FUCKING STUPID?!
Does anyone know how to fix polybuzz memory because I actually have really really good chats with sonic characters and I actually had a roleplay about a war but since the memory was so bad they didn't remember Pacific moments and I had to remind them in even when I reminded themIt shifted the topic to that And it ruin everything So I had to basically just delete that message I want to say Does anyone know how to Fix the memory because I can't be the only one and I'm not trying to defend polybuzz here i just like the app in general i use it for roleplays but the ads and stuff ruin it so can someone tell me how to fix the memory so they can remember better and I do not want to spend 90 + dollars on some premium stuff
A fucking advertisement for a sports betting app. I don’t even know what to say about this just why
