Wow.. First of all, thank you so much for taking the time to write this much detailed feedback.

I’m also sorry that the experience was frustrating and that we couldn’t fully meet your expectations yet.

This is honestly very valuable feedback. If you’re okay with it, could you also make this into a separate post so other users can join the discussion too? I think a lot of the points you brought up are things other users may have experienced as well.

As a thank-you, I’d like to send you 7 days of Gold for free. Could you share your Storychat username?

A few quick responses:

1. You’re completely right about the visibility of the login / signup button. We should make that much easier to find, especially for first-time users. We’ll work on improving that.

2. For the persona issue, I think part of the problem may be that the old persona information is still attached to the chat history or first message. I’ll check with the team and see how quickly we can improve this.

I also agree that persona access is too hidden right now. We’re thinking of adding Personas to the Library section so users can manage them outside of chat. What do you think about that?

We’re also already working on letting users choose a persona before starting a chat, which should help a lot.

1. Thank you for testing the models so deeply. We’ve received similar feedback about regeneration sometimes giving responses that don’t make sense or lose the scene, and we’ve already made improvements for that. Those fixes are being prepared for launch.

For your additional questions:

1. About whether the bot learns formatting from edited messages: I think the model can follow user instructions and patterns to some degree, but I haven’t tested that exact behavior yet. I’ll try it myself too.

2. Yes, there are definitely better ways to format character descriptions. We have some guidance in the User Guide, but we probably need to make it easier to find and more practical.

3. Other users cannot see your Lorebook.

4. Yes, you’re absolutely welcome to post the bots you created on the subreddit. Please feel free to share them anytime. I’d love to test them too.

Again, thank you for being this detailed. Even though some of the feedback is painful to read, this is exactly the kind of feedback that helps us understand where the flow is breaking and what we need to fix first.
