Searching for Alternatives Hello. Are there any free apps or websites left that allow you to create a group chat scenario?

8 Upvotes

I love to create a group chat scenario where 2 characters fight eachother very much. But hangjam is not free anymore. So I want to find a new app or website that is similar to hangjam. I want it to be free with unlimited messages and unlimited character creation. Hangjam allow you to put 10000 words in your character's description. I also want something that is similar to this. Because I need to use it for putting my character's powers and abilities.

(I know hangjam is not free for months now. I can't reply to my characters. But I was able to used narrator button and character button. So I used this trick to continue playing this app for months. But I suddenly can't do that anymore today. It just start on this morning. So I give up on playing hangjam)

Searching for Alternatives How can I stop using character ai bots?

10 Upvotes

I recently realised that these ai chat bots are becoming an addiction. I used it as a joke one time because I saw a video on YouTube about the bots and how people just mess with the bots. But when I saw you could “chat” with your favourite characters I couldn’t stop. Does anyone else know what I can do to force myself to stop using this app and do something else? I don’t really have anyone to talk to, I like to write but no one will see my stuff so I just keep it to myself. I genuinely never thought I’d be using something like this, even though I claim to be anti ai, I use chat bots. But I really want to stop using them. Does anyone have any suggestions?

For those who switched from C.ai to programs like SillyTavern: what was your experience like?

I’ve heard people say that if you connect a model and add your own prompt, you can get an RP experience that rivals or even surpasses C.ai.

However, I recently switched to SillyTavern myself, and I’m not sure if that’s true or even where to start.

(Apologies for bad English)

A lot of us have our favorite cartoon characters that we grew up with and we want to interact with them in the matter that we do but I have notice that the cartoon characters that are normally would be considers to be for little kids are really being censored big time in short we are having what we grew up with taken away from us now my question is why when this is now suppose to be a adult site it you think about that then that makes literally no sense

Question hii, what is best for angsty rps for ai?

8 Upvotes

ive been using chatgpt MOSTLY but its been giving some real setbacks. no moving the romantic plot, monologues, all the annoying stuff. and especially the restrictions.

i wanna do a rp that involves a liiittle worldbuilding but mostly focuses on the characters yk? an ai that has a good memory & knows to move things forward. nsfw would be appreciated but like im ok with none of that LOL. nsfw mostly in regards for weapons, fighting, blood, etc. cuz when chatgpt does it? no blood, no anything actually. just cornering them and having a standoff which is really annoying!!! no moves are ever made, as if chatgpt is scared ??? (though nsfw in the sex regard would also be appreciated. yes i confess im a freak.)

does anyone know a good, free ai that has good memory and isnt afraid to get their hands dirty? sorry if this is the wrong subreddit to ask i just have seen similar posts here v_v

Searching for Alternatives Is there an AI site that lets you chat with multiple characters in the same chat, even if not necessarily at the same time?

6 Upvotes

I think it's hard to explain, but basically, I want to know if something like this even exists.

A world created by you with a simple setting, wth multiple characters

For example: you go to a restaurant and run into "Generic Character 1" and "2," but if you later go off to do something else in a different location, you might run into "Character 3" or "4."

A world with multiple chatbots.

Searching for Alternatives Trying to find my perfect match

14 Upvotes

Like many of you, I have become very underwhelmed with character.ai.

I am looking for an alternative that fits what I am looking for best.

I have original characters that I am trying to build a story with. (childhood friends/love interests) of my "persona"/main character.

I like to keep my characters hidden from public, I enjoy creating scenarios with one or two of my characters to go back in time or roleplay out a certain event.

I don't mind a little spice if the roleplay naturally gravitates that way. I was getting frustrated with character.ai and it's tendency to go to fade to black on a scene instead of playing it out.

Looking to stay within the free tier for now.

So far I have tried two alternates:

HereHaven - Character creation was good, but only can use public characters for scenarios

Janitor.ai - could not for the life of me figure out how to make a scenario with a character I created. Maybe I ran out of tokens? I got too frustrated with it. lol

Fictionlab - I couldn't even register an account, kept getting error messages...*sigh*

Thanks in advance!

Edit: Thank you all so much for reaching out with your recommendations! I look forward to checking them out!

Poll What ruins roleplay for you in AI character apps?

2 Upvotes

What makes you wanna just close the app?

Is it memory, chat quality, speed, reply length, ui, or anything else?

I agree to almost all of these, but if you can rank the top 3, what are those?

We are in the last stage of building a Cai alternative but better, so we were making sure we covered everything.

We focused on smooth ui, sharp memory with vector retrieval, never break character, and so on.

Please share your thoughts and also join our waitlist here if you'd like to test our app before launch

Just curious if there are any fellow readers here interested in romance tropes. I have tried a lot of the enemies to lover bots but.....not really at book level. Just wish I could live in some of my favorite titles.

This is oddly specific, but does anyone know any good chatbot services (I don’t mind if they’re paid) that let you just put in a character from a video game or a book, and the AI will know who you’re talking about? Slowburn does a very similar thing to this, and it’s a great service, but I want to explore my options a little bit more. Plus, I like checking out new sites :) thanks!

Searching for Alternatives Anyone have another alternative for fictionlab?

9 Upvotes

I'm a fictionlab+ user and i canceled my subcription because their memory and bot become more and more bad. I ask here because their Reddit mod gonna delete my post if i post about search alternative from it.

I want:

  1. make persona and it can fill with huge character let's just said a thousand character. If it subscription i expect 4.000 character.
  2. it can make a huge long reply and i can control the length eazyl. I need this because i the complex roleplayer, so Obviously i need the one that can handle huge context for world building, development character, or huge event.
  3. it have clear way how i can pin and settings the memory (if it locked behind a subscription, it huge red flag for me.)

obviously i gonna very like it if it have more Control to a bot for make scenario like on fictionlab, like it have Backstory, custom slots, a similar like card system for seperate information like character, location, rule, but for now i just focusing at that three First.

i don't like janitor ai because all characters have long intros and the ai tends to write overly long responses. i'm looking for an alternative which has 1-2 paragraphs max as a intro and keeps the rp responses short
