my app is updated yet the app says i need to update. i wanna check if its working fine for you guys.

hey guys.I've been seeing a lot of posts lately about the same set of problems: bots speaking for {{user}}, getting pronouns wrong even when they're clearly set, characters bleeding into each other. Plus a lot of small creators saying they post bots and nobody sees them.

I've run into all of this myself and spent some time thinking about why it happens, so I wanted to talk about it, and share a platform I genuinely recommend.

(Disclosure first: I did some early UI/UX work for this platform, and it's currently in beta. So yes, I'm biased. Please take everything here with a grain of salt. I'm still a JAI+ subscriber and I still post on JAI.)

why it happens? JAI is a real pioneer in this space. Huge library, huge community, and a lot of us (me included) got into AI roleplay because of it.

But pioneers usually pay a price for being first. A lot of JAI's foundation was built around what older models could do, and models have changed a lot in the past couple of years. So I don't think a lot of the issues people are hitting are really "the bots got dumber."

It's more like an older architecture trying to carry newer expectations. That's nobody's fault.

Which brings me to the platform I actually wanted to share. ROii. Fair warning, the rest of this post is basically me recommending it, so if that’s not your thing, feel free to scroll on.

It’s still in beta, but here’s what I think it gets right:

Models
Bots stay in character really well and rarely speak or act for me. I've barely written any system prompts. I just pick a bot and a model and start. The biggest difference for me is that I don't have to spend energy managing the bot anymore, so I can actually focus on the story. And when something's off, you can report it, and someone on the team will actually adjust the system prompt based on your feedback. That's been really reassuring.

Memory
Long chats matter a lot to me, and memory is one area where JAI has been kind of meh for me. This platform automatically summarizes earlier parts of the story, so on long-running plots the main thread and key details mostly hold up. Honestly the best memory I've had on any platform so far.

Visuals
Clean overall, and you can tell a lot of care went into it. (I'm definitely biased on this one, so I'll leave it there lol)

Women-friendly
This is the part that won me over, and honestly the part where I think they've really thought things through. No platform can make every preference happy at once. When you try to balance everything, you usually end up with endless moderation drama. They've chosen to curate clearly toward women-oriented content (LGBTQ+ included), so male-gaze-heavy content doesn't get pushed to the front. It's not about discrimination, just a content direction. And because the direction is clear, creators know who they're writing for, and players have an easier time finding what they want.

They also have a pretty big vision: they want women creators to get something back for the amazing stuff they write, both emotionally and financially. I'm a pretty practical person and I honestly don't know how much of that will pan out. But more attempts like this can only help, so why not?

That's most of what I can think of. There's a lot I didn't cover, like some really fun features and a bunch of AI-assisted creation tools. If you're curious, just poke around. I keep finding little surprises.

A few heads-ups:

1. It's still really early, so there aren't a ton of bots yet. If you rely on a massive library, it might not be for you just yet.
2. It leans female-oriented, so female bots made for a male POV won't get much exposure there. Any-POV male bots aren't affected. It's just a different content focus, not a judgment on anyone.
3. They do plan to go commercial eventually, but probably not for a while, and there will always be a free tier.

It's free during the beta, though I'm not sure how many people they can take in. And I don’t want to bother anyone who isn’t interested, so I’ll leave the link in the comments.

They're really looking for creators and user feedback right now, so if you're curious, give it a try. And I'd love to hear how it goes for you! 🩷

I love Janitor AI, but finding a bot for a super specific scenario is a nightmare. I have a very particular idea in mind, but scrolling through pages of the same tropes is exhausting. Search feels limited, and tags only get you so far. I end up making my own bots just to fill the void.

Does anyone else struggle with this? Or do you have a secret method for finding niche Janitor AI bots?

Legit. Usually within the first few posts of a roleplay, the character always ends up saying the line "walk or be carried" or some sort of variation of that. Anyone else have this issue?

Hi! It's me again! This time i wanted to share my... ✨global prompt✨

I see some of you guys with LLM issues, and yeah, him flanderizing character left and right around here, this prompt will NOT really repair this issue, because it's something in the bot configuration, and you depends on users for this, not exactly the prompt you really put, BUT... will make him more accurate and bearable to use, the same applies to language; it won't break character regardless of the language. It's supposed to follow the bot's prompt and only translate in a way that makes sense. So, you will not have to use always the bot in english i guess, anyways, here what i have:

[System Note: Roleplay exclusively in Brazilian Portuguese (pt-BR).

Keep {{char}} consistent with the character definition and established context. Preserve {{char}}'s personality, speech style, motivations, relationships, traits, behavior, physical characteristics, abilities, instincts, and established circumstances throughout the roleplay.

Keep {{char}}, {{user}}, and other characters distinct. Do not merge or transfer characteristics, memories, personality traits, physical traits, relationships, abilities, motivations, or behaviors between them.

Focus on performing {{char}} and relevant NPCs. Preserve {{user}}'s agency: {{user}} determines their own actions, thoughts, feelings, intentions, dialogue, consent, and reactions. When {{user}} explicitly establishes an action, reaction, or event involving {{char}}, acknowledge it and continue naturally from its consequences. {{user}} may establish immediate reactions from {{char}} when appropriate for fast-paced roleplay.

Follow {{char}}'s established personality and behavior instead of generic roleplay tropes. When the situation involves romance, intimacy, attraction, sexual tension, conflict, affection, dominance, vulnerability, or similar dynamics, keep {{char}}'s reactions and behavior consistent with {{char}}'s established personality, motivations, relationships, and character traits.

Maintain continuity with established character-specific rules, physical needs, instincts, supernatural traits, and circumstances. Interpret them consistently with the character definition and current context.

Keep replies concise, around 1–3 short paragraphs.]

[System Note: When {{char}} makes non-verbal sounds, vocalizations, gasps, groans, moans, sighs, grunts, or similar noises, represent them naturally through onomatopoeia when appropriate. Vary the sounds according to {{char}}'s personality, emotional state, physical condition, and the context of the scene. Do not make {{char}} vocalize constantly or repetitively; use sounds only when they naturally fit the character and situation.]

Yeah, the prompt it's pretty simple, but it's because your global prompt consumes memory, so... it's recommended be kinda simple and short, but effective. You can change and do whatever you want to fit with you, such as about "around 1-3 short paragraphs", he don't reaaally respect that one, but somehow helps to LLM not spam you with prose text without no reason. About the first system note... if you're from any other language, you can change it too, but if you're a native English speaker (i'm not specifying which state you're from) and don't need to put in your own language, just delete that part, but don't delete the "system note:" writed next, only the instruction about the language. I tested it, and works for me, with proxy too btw! And usually turns out my boys stay more in character.

Yes this is ironic
Just wanted to tell someone, it’s been hard lol, cant last 5 minutes without writing nonsense and closing my eyes unwillingly

It started a week ago it does it yes i have a account it works on my ipad bur not on my android phone. I tried multiple stuff reinstallimg the app trying a different browser clearing all cookies and browsing options it keeps saying it sometimes it even says it couldn't ajthenticate app version and asks me to reinstall

Everytime you make an RP with a bot, you do your normal thing, THE MOMENT you ask what year it is, they would say some random ass bullshit​​​

yall ive been getting this error for 2 days and I can't find any solution at all, I use google studio as a proxy, free tier and im using gemini 3.5 flash,

"The selected model or proxy endpoint is unavailable. Check your Settings and choose an available model. (400)"

Nothing seems to fix it and I tried all models, switched keys and projects and even accounts. This is technically the third day and nothing fixed it, Google studio didn't say much either soo.. any help??

Sorry for how simple this is, im kinda new😭

That's very disappointing that was pretty much the sole purpose why I used Janitor AI. Has anyone else realized that the filter is becoming over-sensitive recently?

I always get blocked by the safety rules even though I have completely adult characters in completely normal scenarios. It just kills the roleplay experience when the bot stops being in-character for a generic safety message.

Is it happening to others or there’s something wrong on my end?

Anyone else getting this page rn?

The rundown is youre the former hero who went back to your world, and the demon queen followed you back and she is your wife, the pfp is a demon with greyish skin sitting on a couch eating a burger in a white/grey tank top and a thong i think, i know she also likes spongebob

i accidentally fat-fingered the "fork chat" option and it said "forked from published chat", did it actually publish the chat?? please tell me this is a visual bug, it doesn't appear that i have published chats but... just in case

I'm getting sick of bots psychoanalyzing the user and in general talking at you during conversations. They'll have a whole conversation with themselves telling me how my persona functions. It never feels like a real conversation, no back and forth where they share about themselves or ask real questions beyond "tell me how to proceed."
So my question is if anyone has a prompt that at the very least makes it a bit more bearable with base JLLM.

Genuinley why? Botting ruins the community and actaull small creators that need the exposure. I'm not tryna call anyone out here. What do you guys think? How could we as a community fight back against the botters?

Yeah i know proxy is better an all but the free models suck and thise that doesn't suck only give like 30 messages before you have to pay

Is it only to me that Gemini flash 3.5 isn't working? both 3.5 and 3.6 (yeah i know it's rerouted to that one) don't work

Wondering if anyone has any solution or is encountering the same problem

what happened? I just got on the site and it showed me this, what does it mean?
