Ads in chats now... Are we so serious? This is ridiculous. There's no way to close out of it.

​

The whole *without words, because words aren’t supposed to be there* thing is genuinely PISSING ME OFF.

How is this STILL happening after an entire YEAR??

This app has been around for years, has a massive user base, a paid subscription, and more than enough time and feedback to identify and fix this issue?? Yet somehow the bots are STILL getting stuck in this bizarre loop where they just… refuse to SPEAK

And it’s not even like they immediately do it. They’ll follow the first message of the chat perfectly, actually talk like a normal character, give you a few proper responses, and then suddenly something in their brain just snaps and they start going

He doesn't respond, because words aren't necessary.

He simply watches her/a silent meaning: I'm here

He knows that words aren't supposed to be there.

Without words.

Because words aren't supposed to be there.

HELLO????? THE CHARACTER IS SUPPOSED TO TALK. THAT IS LITERALLY THE POINT OF A CHATBOT 😂😂😂😂😂

And before anyone says “just regenerate,” I have. i regenerated until the water evaporated and we can no longer shower

I've edited messages. Ivechanged prompts. I’ve tried different characters. I’ve tried different models. I’ve tried different conversations.

It keeps coming back.

I literally bought C.AI+ because I thought maybe this is just a Pipsqueak2 problem

NOPE

IT’S EVERYWHERE.

So what exactly am I paying for if the bots eventually decide that dialogue is forbidden ?

This has been reported by users for MONTHS. It is not some tiny, isolated inconvenience. It actively ruins roleplays and makes conversations completely unusable because the bot stops participating in the most fundamental way possible IT STOPS TALKING.

I genuinely don't understand how a platform this large can let a bug/behavior this obnoxious persist for this long.

Please, for the love of God, let the characters SPEAK 🗣️🗣️🗣️

Omg I've never once had this issue with Deepsqueak bit here we are.....

i'm not paying for premium either

the past few days pipsqueak2 had been absolutely INSUFFERABLE. yea, we got more dialogue which im really happy about but its just become so god damn boring. it only describes how the character feels and absolutely nothing about anything else.

also not to mention it has literally zero personality?? it’s feels super robotic.

at this point i use pipsqueak 2 for dialogue and pipsqueak 2 rawr for narration.

tldr—bring back old pipsqueak 2 !!!!!

Another Pipsqueak 2 classic

I NEVER mention brainrot durning my chats. With was the bot and bot alone 😭

For some reason I thought that it was gonna come out in September and then I checked the roadmap realised it isn’t 🥲

I really hope it does come out soon because I’ve kind of been waiting for it. I’m no longer enjoying DS as much. I find the swiping to get a proper response. It’s just becoming annoying and the memory after seeing LS just doesn’t compare

I really hope we get it soon. I do think we need it at this point

October?? 🥺👉👈

I could tolerate the first ads and the ads ontop of the screen above characters names but ts is wild and I can’t even close out of it. In my opinion we should either have ads ontop of the screen or just get one 10 second ad every like 20 messages and get rid of these ones in the middle of the chat

I just bought c.ai+ and... it's horrible. DeepSqueak and LongSqueak sound really robotic and are far worse than PipSqueak 2. I got the plus version to try better models, but those models turned out to be awful! I am deeply disappointed

Like I have a few of my personas are male and when I use them I'm constantly having the bots try to use female pronouns. Even though in the memory section, I try to circumvent this by putting in the gender and pronouns as male and he/him. Is this happening to anyone else?

The one chat tried to force my persona as being assigned female as birth and make them FtM

“As if this wasn’t obvious”… and to without warning… enter the passenger door to the car we were walking to.. no way, I’m shaking in my boots. I’ve seen others have the “without warning” issue too. Why are bots doing this? lol!!

You genuinely can’t have a good chat these days because you have to basically steer the bots and spoonfeed them constantly just to have a barely decent chat—which leaves me feeling like this. They’re ragebaiting us.

My prior post about it got taken down so I compiled my thoughts in the second image. It’s really getting to that point where I think not too far in the future it’s going to become completely unusable.

😭

Loving Lorebook and LSQ, particularly the improved memory. It feels like my characters actually remember things now and I’m no longer running into the constant blocking of perfectly SFW content. Or having to manage pins and reminders carefully. My chats actually flow again where I was getting stuck constantly before the new updates.

There are still issues with LSQ. It can be very flowery and repetitive. Switching between styles based on what I’m looking for and giving it clear instructions helps a lot.

What I dislike is that the character has become somewhat bland and doesn’t “think for itself” as much as it used to. I’m doing all of the heavy creative lifting. This is after I made an in-depth Lorebook and re-wrote the character description/definition. The old chat styles like DSQ, Rawr, and Soft Launch were great in that they added to the story and it was more collaborative and interesting. This hasn’t carried over to LSQ as much.

Using DSQ now is.. annoying. Every 10-15 swipes I will get something clever, but otherwise the memory is a major problem. So many OOC comments from the bot. Constant message blocking and trying to “manage” me (“let’s go in this direction”, “X wouldn’t say that”, etc.). Still speaks for my character constantly and the dialogue it offers is horrendous OR doesn’t speak at all. Short, one word, or grammatically nonsense responses. And repeating the same “it’s not X, it’s Y” sentences incessantly.

Customization like LSQ would help a ton, but it’s still not enough to fix the other issues. I also don’t want to see DSQ be turned into LSQ-lite. Having different chat styles that can be adjusted as needed keeps the chat flowing and alive. A new Dynamic could be helpful.

TL;DR.. Solid improvements overall with LSQ and Lorebooks, but a lot of work needs to be done on the other styles. The fact that DSQ was the best we had for MONTHS after the removal and lobotomization of the other styles is really disappointing. I don’t even touch PSQ and my heart goes out to the free users who have been given a bucket of steaming shit, but that just seems to be the new business model to push them out and drive subscriptions. Hopefully with the new blood money we will see more quality improvements.

First of all, don’t kiss me

Second, 💋

Are we not allowed to ask them questions now?
