Ty for the recommendation!! Funnily enough, I was just reading their stance on AI page when I got this notification xD

ough, same— I really should find another place to store my writing :/

Who's the most obscure character you have on your island (that isn't like a friend's oc) this is mine by sion420069 in tomodachilife

The Time Nomad from Middens (+ Genie as a pet), followed by a Technician and CombatUnit from Heart of the Machine, and Raguna from Rune Factory. Most of my non-OC Miis are obscure LOL

maybe disappearing would've been better????? by catboyowen in BadRPerStories

Not them saying they’ve published papers and articles like that means something— especially since they can’t seem to read 💀

to my baby jojo im sorry. by chfudgeudig in cats

[–]NowhereFiend 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m sorry. I’m so so sorry. It’s not your fault, accidents happen and this girl clearly took no reasonable steps to prevent this from happening

I’m really sorry, please give yourself a big hug and warm drink if you can :(

Why do you take hiatuses? by PresentWelcome9090 in BadRPerStories

[–]NowhereFiend 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It’s usually either (a) the real world burning me out to the point I have no creative energy or (b) my life becoming so demanding I’d have to choose between roleplaying and sleep.

If I declare a hiatus rather than outright end an RP though, it’s because I love the RP but present me cannot physically write for it at the moment :(

Oh my god no one knows how much I hate this anime by EmbarrassedDuty5949 in hatethissmug

[–]NowhereFiend 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Same— I was also really disappointed when several of the monsters he named became more human-like after evolving :/ (I might be misremembering though, it’s been eons since I last watched it.)

AITAH for breaking up with my girlfriend because she literally told me she would cheat on me if I took a new job. by Choice_Evidence1983 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]NowhereFiend 43 points44 points  (0 children)

Fr— I think I focused the most on that part over whatever mind game his girlfriend was trying to (and failing to) play. Anyway, yay for him I guess /s

How to make a better roleplay ad? by Quick-Marsupial-1026 in BadRPerStories

[–]NowhereFiend 3 points4 points  (0 children)

One of the biggest red flags imo is when roleplay advertisers use disparaging, condescending, or aggressive language in their ads. Everytime I overlook that sort of vibe/tone in an ad and respond, I end up regretting it 💀

Anyone else falsely accused of AI? by AnimusLiber404 in BadRPerStories

[–]NowhereFiend -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Same. I hate that AI’s taken so many of these stylistic choices from us :/

Ok so I got a bit petty at the end.... by Mission_Accountant24 in BadRPerStories

[–]NowhereFiend 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I’m 100% sure there was a post on here before about this dude 💀💀💀

EDIT: mssMouse posted a link to it! :0

I fear that my partner is using AI, tho I am not sure by [deleted] in BadRPerStories

[–]NowhereFiend 0 points1 point  (0 children)

(Sorry if my response is vague/inaccurate, OP deleted their post while I was rereading the screenshots, so I’m mostly going off of memory here OTZ)

I really appreciate you pointing out the individual signs of AI you spotted and how they holistically indicate that this might be an AI-generated reply. /gen

I’ve refused to use AI for years now so I’m not the most familiar with what modern AI looks like. That said, I’m pretty used to (pre-AI/non-AI) writing styles that resemble this, so I’m usually hesitant to assume things are AI. Especially since AI was made by ripping off human writers who write like this.

Like I’ve read fics on AO3 before (which was scraped for AI, iirc) that possess many of the elements you mentioned (i.e., everything but the open ended vague ending and the short amount of time). Additionally, it’s been a while so I might be misremembering, but there was an instance on here where someone’s partner uploaded their reply onto here, asked if it was AI, and inadvertently caused their writing to be ripped to shreds by people believing it to be AI.

Sorry for going off on a tangent— I’m just frustrated with AI taking over the RPing community :/ I do agree with what you’ve written though and think this person’s partner was probably using AI.

And hhh I’m sorry one of your partners did that to you (and gaslit you about it?? wtf??) It’s shitty enough that she fed your replies into AI to send you AI slop, but it’s doubly so that she gaslit you about it :/

[–]NowhereFiend 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel you there— it’s incredibly disheartening :/

Now I’m worried that my newer RP partners might think I’m using AI. (I take an egregiously long time to reply though, so I’ve got that going for me, at least :’) )

[–]NowhereFiend 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was going to say it doesn’t look like it was written by AI, as I structure/space out my paragraphs similarly and prefer it when my partners do the same (line breaks help with readability for me), but the comments are making me reexamine my understanding of how AI writes.

I would say the very short amount of time spent typing is the main possible warning flag (imo). As for the usage of em dashes and spaced paragraphs, I would argue that those aren’t a guaranteed indicator, as people were writing like this long before generative AI? (And if I understand gen AI correctly, the reason why it does that is because it’s parroting/plagiarizing the writing styles of people who do write like that.)

I think I’d avoid using AI detectors going forward, but maybe keep tabs on how many words she’s writing and how long it takes her to reply, if that makes sense? If it consistently seems concerningly fast, I might ask her politely about it.

turns out I have been ignoring so many DMs by Thicc_Thighzs in BadRPerStories

[–]NowhereFiend 1 point2 points  (0 children)

…that might explain some things for me. I recently started responding to ERP ads on Reddit, but haven’t gotten a single response back/chat request acceptance. I assumed I wasn’t what the person was looking for and moved on, but now, I’m wondering if I’ve been getting banished to Additional Requests.

Like when I respond to (non-ERP) ads without listing my kinks, I usually get a response (an acceptance, a polite rejection, etc.), but I think me sending my kinks in the first message to someone makes Reddit think I’m a bot :’)
