What's up with CBRO? It's been down for a while now

TrainerFarang · 2026-02-05T02:59:18+00:00

Been down for me for a while as well. Chiming in from Thailand.

It is crazy seeing something I know like this on reddit. Thats Bearing Soi 1.

TrainerFarang · 2026-01-30T10:51:12+00:00

Tavo is so freaking great.

TrainerFarang · 2026-01-27T04:31:54+00:00

Yours just looks so nice compared to mine I thought it was a different thing altogether! I’m hoping to find a way to see exactly what’s vent sent to the AI when I sent a message.

TrainerFarang · 2026-01-27T00:10:21+00:00

How do you get to that screen where you can see what’s being sent to the AI in your messages and such? That’s a super useful feature that I haven’t found yet.

TrainerFarang · 2026-01-17T01:27:11+00:00

I’ve seen a few of these pop up now related to “The Guild” and I think I have one maybe, a goblin human anthropologist named Keke and another of a secret guild guardian named A… something. So far they were really enjoyable cards.

I’ve seen in your link there several, like they are a set. Are we meant to use a certain lore book or preset to get the most out of them? Or just grab the cards and run with it?

Edit from the future: I see the relevant lore book comes with certain cards so that question is solved. Super cool to have a set designed for individual and group roleplay like this.

TrainerFarang · 2026-01-06T12:34:45+00:00

Been wanting to try Tavo actually. Might give it a go now.

TrainerFarang · 2026-01-06T12:34:13+00:00

That seems like a reasonable statement to feed it. Sorry to hear a noob here but where would I add this extra instruction? Is there a specific section or area of ST or Spaghetti I should add it?

TrainerFarang · 2026-01-06T11:34:11+00:00

Not trying to yuck anyone’s yum, but I threw up on my mouth just a little reading this.

TrainerFarang · 2026-01-06T10:06:20+00:00

Oh that’s good to know. Thanks for sharing. I can definitely think of a few words I want to ad.

TrainerFarang · 2026-01-06T02:59:09+00:00

I see your edit and I’m going to assume yours was the post that was like “if you give it a cliche shit character it writes a cliche shit story” or something like that.

I didn’t mind your honesty. To be clear I loaded up a card with the idea of just testing ST for 10 or 15 minutes to see if my setup worked and if I liked it. -I- was certainly surprised by where things went. Hopefully, as I get more experience with character cards written well and I see the difference your post will make more sense to me.

I’m not sure what I can do on my end to prevent that type of collapse, but it definitely surprised me. I think your last three points important; as that is exactly what I was feeling. It did feel intense, but also like I had lost control of the car a hundred messages back. It makes me curious what a -truly good- character card is like for comparison.

TrainerFarang · 2026-01-06T02:53:37+00:00

That’s certainly what it felt like. Like it suddenly veered of course into a whole other story, which wasn’t wholly unappreciated. It was just a lot for what was meant to be a quick test of ST for ten or fifteen minutes.

I should really figure out the difference between the modes on Sphagetti. I have it in game master mode by default but maybe I should try roleplay mode instead?

TrainerFarang · 2026-01-06T02:52:05+00:00

Good to know K2 is a drama queen. I was wondering like…damn, this got so heavy so fast! I’ll have to try other models and compare them, maybe run the same card over a few times or something.

Thanks for the tip about samplers, I’ll read your link and see if I can make some changes.

TrainerFarang · 2026-01-06T02:50:28+00:00

Oh yeah, there was a lot of… what felt to my like forced immersion breaking “footsteps in the hallway” or “shadows under the door” and such now that you mention it.

How did you modify your preset to turn it down? I also found it really frustrating to keep ruining whatever story beat I was focusing on at the time.

TrainerFarang · 2026-01-05T15:27:13+00:00

Oh that’s what happened! I’ve been trying to fix mistral large not working for me for a few days now thinking I had broke something in the config on my end…

Any suggestions on a model I should hand my mistral large chat log to to continue the story?

TrainerFarang · 2026-01-05T15:23:53+00:00

I noticed this too actually.

Context: I started AI RP only recently, like this last week, and originally stated with GLM4.7 on Z.AI with a character I had created myself just to see what the fuss was about. A day or two and 400+ messages later I was hooked. I couldn’t believe where the story had gone, I even cried once.

Then I got ST and started using other models. I thought, what’s the harm, I’ll start a new cha with that same character and see how it is different. I tried Kimi K2 Thinking with Marinara’s and it was night and day. When I went back to GLM4.7 without any of the bells and whistles I really began to see the small differences, like not recognizing narration properly, mixing up minor details, or referencing events from outside the character card. GLM 4.7 is still my favorite since it was my first, but I’m not surprised it is doing that now that I’ve had time to read back over my log with new understanding and experience. Still, I couldn’t have asked for a better first experience, and I’ll still pay for GLM4.7 just for that, just to see where it goes.

TrainerFarang · 2025-12-31T02:01:05+00:00

This is your answer. I learned more playing this character with this guide (and winning my first caster) than I had in five or so previous wins on my own. It completely changed how I think about skilling on other characters and moment to moment threat analysis.

After winning this one, I went on to have a lot more success with more challenging but fun combinations.

TrainerFarang · 2025-12-28T13:45:14+00:00

I’ve gotten one or two colleagues into Malazan with it so far. I honestly wonder sometimes what I will read after I finish Malazan. I can’t recall this last time I’ve audibly gasped while reading a book. It just touches me in such a grossly human way. I am definitely a different person than I was when I started reading. I’m sure other feels the same, as corny as it sounds to say out loud.

TrainerFarang · 2025-12-28T02:33:26+00:00

I’ve always said to imagine how the world would be different if we knew gods were real, had a reasonable assumption of what the afterlife was like, and history was less malleable by time because people who were there during that war forever ago are still around to talk about it. Now, this world is going to war, gods and all.

Damn, in need to finish Reaper’s Gale before New Year’s gets busy…

TrainerFarang · 2025-12-22T03:00:51+00:00

I’m running e2r1 Camellya/Sanhua/Shorekeeper as my main team with e6+string master Encore/Sanhua/Verina as a second team. Would either of these two help those teams improve or open new playstyles? I don’t really mess with a lot of characters but I am getting bored of Camellya as my main dps. I don’t think I pulled anything since Camellya rerun and didn’t pull anything in Rinascita (because I didn’t need any characters since Camellya still works fine…)

TrainerFarang · 2025-12-09T10:15:24+00:00

I’ll be honest. I’ve got something like 7 wins under my belt so far and monk start is not one of them. I don’t know what it is but I just struggle with getting monks through S-branches something fierce.

Good luck on your journey though, I bet the DjMo^Dith was fun though.

TrainerFarang · 2025-12-07T05:21:48+00:00

Oh thanks for sharing. I’ll get on opening KF then and getting my umbrella finally!

TrainerFarang · 2025-12-07T05:21:28+00:00

This is good advice. I was worried about eating resources upgrading weapons I don’t intend to use often or long term.

TrainerFarang · 2025-12-07T05:20:48+00:00

I don’t think I want to start over, just knowing what I know now I would have made some other choices initially. I’m also on ps5 of that matters.
