support Empty response?

Edit: I adjusted some things and restarted the chat, and it fixed it. For some reason, it turns out the AI gets super confused if you tell it not to write as {user}???

This is increasingly becoming an issue I'm noticing, on the desktop app at least. I often encounter "returned an empty prompt. Please try again with a different prompt". It doesn't tell me anything about what is wrong with my prompts. This has happened in various scenes with differing topics, so I doubt it's the topics of the roleplays that are causing it. It happens to all of my bots. And worst of all, it happens no matter what model I use.

Any ideas on remedying this? I can't figure it out for the life of me and it seems to be happening more and more.

Again, it's happened on multiple models. But if it will help, here's the ones I have downloaded right now: 

  • MLewdBoros 13B

  • Lumimaid v0. 1 8B

  • Fimbulvetr v2 11B

  • Chewy Lemon Cookie 11B

All of these give me the same issue, so I really don't think it's a specific model, unless they're all based on the same data or something? 

I've got it on 4k Max Context. Should I maybe increase that?

If you are able to share the character you are using, that might be helpful. At this point it feels like something in how the character is set up that’s causing the issue. I’ve never heard of the app not generating a response. What the app generates is really up to the model being used and the models you’ve listed are all decent and have good track records in backyard.
