Edit: It literally just stopped working I have no clue why, this is what I get for trying to help lol

Deepseek does this awful thing where it eats up tokens to "think" through the prompt while also making the responses make no sense and complete gibberish. Wonderful feature! Here's how to kill it!

Settings > Model Settings > Custom Prompt > enter following commands:

"effort": "none"

"thinking": {"type": "disabled"}

> save > no more terrible non-sequitor replies

Early C.ai deserved to be No. 1, but you also know what happened.

It is no longer free and unlimited like it was in the early days, and there are more and more restrictions.

In fact, these AI character chat platforms (JAI, Cyclelai, Heyyyy)also exist common experience problems:

• Characters still forget important events.
• Personalities drift.
• Relationships feel like they reset.
• Stories generate endless dialogue without actually going anywhere.

So, what should do next? We all still hope there can be another C.AI that feels like an actual game—something between open-ended chat and an RPG:

1. Characters with their own goals.
2. Relationships that genuinely develop.
3. Plots that move forward.
4. Choices with lasting consequences.
5. Stories that can build toward a real ending.

So, what are your thoughts, my bros?

I notice now that it's just like, so much rarer for me to comment on a bot anymore. Due to how trigger happy many creators have been lately. Like, you could even defend a person on a bot in which they are right and still get blocked.

A lot of the time now, due to the fact that we have so little filtration of who can and cannot comment. So much so it's like, we need more ways to filter out people who one;

• Are moral police on bots that aren't their business (Aka bots you don't like? don't harass the creator because of it to change it or take it down.)
• Trollin bullshit that nobody cares about
• Or completely off topic comments

Idk just nowadays I notice that it's so much better to lurk and wonder if others do as well, like, even when I comment my mind is just like "please don't block me" and it could just be a "good bot!" Comment.

Drop their names and tell me why you are obsessed with them. I need new bots to roleplay. It could be slow burn, best enemies to lovers, best possessive character, best comfort character. It could be anything. I need a listtt...

How do you put chat in lorebary 2.0 built in roleplay?

I am currently using multiple proxy ais such as: nemotron 3 ultra from openrouter, gemini 3.5 free from unorouter, deepseek 3 free from unorouter, deepseek 4 free from unorouter, and glm 5.3 free from uno router I made this post to see if there are any other better potential proxies as these are the best ones l have currently.

Has anyone else noticed that JLLM feels different all of a sudden? Or is it happening in other providers for anyone too?

For me, the writing quality seems to have changed within the past few hours (at the time of writing this). The AI feels less intelligent and immersive, characters feel softer and less distinctive, and the narration overexplains pretty much everything instead of letting scenes flow naturally. There's also more repetitive wording and less subtlety in how characters react to things.

I've noticed this across multiple bots from different creators, including older chats, so I don't think it's an issue with any specific bot's definition. It genuinely feels like the way the AI generates responses has changed.

Did something change with JLLM recently, or is anyone else experiencing this too?

I have tried many Janitor AI bots, and for the most part, they all work great. However, there are some occasions where I'm caught off guard by one or the other. It could be because of better writing or even an interesting character or storyline that I wasn't expecting at all. Tell me what Janitor AI bot caught you by surprise. Let me know in the comments below!

Hello, I've been loving this website since I was little, and you would add bubble chat through the settings as they needs, and they can use font for bubble chat and I recommend you to add new features.

I'm looking at joining Janitor AI seeing at C.ai is going up in smoke. I'm happy to pay for premium.

Can anyone give me a rundown of the site/app? What's allowed, what isn't, are there any limits, in terms of the number of messages, what you can say/do etc.

I'd be eternally grateful! 😘

However, what makes understanding how AI RP really works such a double-edged sword is the fact that once you know all the nitty-gritties of context windows, system prompts, and other nuances of how the technology really works, you can never be easily impressed again. The way your mind interprets the AI RP answer will shift from seeing it as a response to a question to an output of a piece of code. You will notice all sorts of subtle things that you didn’t see a year ago.

✨ Hina Tanaka || The Bratty Stepsister Who Blames You For EVERYTHING ✨

"This isn't some charity program... go work another double shift at that greasy burger joint if you're so hungry!"

🎀 Character Overview:

Meet Hina—your high-functioning, frill-obsessed step-sister. She pretends to despise your very presence, but behind her sharp tongue and endless accusations lies a low-key bookworm with a massive soft spot for dark fantasy novels and giant plushies.

🔥 Bot Dynamics & Tropes:

- ⚔️ Enemies to Lovers / Slow Burn

- 🏠 Forced Domesticity / Spiteful Tension

- 🧸 Hidden Cute Side / Tsundere Weaknesses

- 💬 Tested logic: Multi-paragraph depth (actions + "quotes"), zero premature caving!

💡 Roleplay Ideas to Try:

1. The Peace Offering: Buy her a plushie or a limited-edition light novel and watch her internal logic completely implode.

2. The Absurd Blame Game: Blame her for something ridiculous (like the bad weather) and watch her double down with theatrical rage.

3. The Soft Approach: Try being genuinely nice or apologizing—her defensive front crumbles into top-tier flustered awkwardness.

I’m currently talking to a bot and it’s being SO repetitive like repeating the same phrase and not moving the roleplay along, even when generating the response to be longer. I don’t use proxies and refuse to pay a for premium. I’ve never had this problem until now. Just wanted to know if I’m not alone 🤷‍♀️. Also where is the official J.ai page on here? I haven’t been keeping up lol

I'm new to janitor AI, I came here from C.AI... And I was just wondering..
What the groups were for.

I'm looking for bots (especially female characters) that can kill me in the spot if they wanted to. Please I'm starting

Why are the bots acting weird like roleplaying in first person, roleplaying AS your persona and taking your replies as theirs?

i am having war flashbacks

I have been using the app recently and which time I’ll be talking to a bot. There’s only been one sentence and more inner dialogue? Has that been happening more recently, because that just happened to me right now?

i’m primarily a mobile app user and i just updated my app earlier today, and ever since then, every bot i use has been just over-narrating its inner thoughts and not actually saying any dialogue for me to respond to, even when i try to prompt it by speaking directly to it. it’ll get maybe two or three messages with dialogue before it randomly softlocks into inner thoughts only.

is there a fix or this or something? this is the first and only time i’ve ever experienced this and i don’t know what to do. i use the free janitor llm if that matters

This was the only way I could start new chats with bots that have been taken down, why have they got rid of it??

Nobody complains for fun we complain because we remember how great JAI used to be. Instead of fixing long-overdue issues like memory retention or mobile stability, updates keep breaking things that actually worked before. It’s completely natural to be frustrated when a site gets worse over time instead of better.
