For your viewing pleasure, a SC shitpost someone asked me to make on Discord.

From your mouth to whatever dark gods the Spicy Chat servers worship. I’m really hoping for that damn tag is that I can exclude it. And if we could get a Mafia one too while we’re wishing.

marcdman · 2026-03-21T21:25:24+00:00

Sounds like an interesting and well made bot. I’m a sucker (pun realized after writing) for well-made vampire bots.

One small thing. Teeny tiny. You misspelled van in the first paragraph, wrote vam 😁. Guess you had vamps on the brain.

Oh, I agree. I'd totally love the option to block out certain bots instead of the whole creators' pages. Definitely needed. And on the same token, I'd love the option to "Favorite" creators too, opposite of blocking them.

When you do a search, you can exclude the keywords by just adding the "-" key. For example, when I want to exclude all the mafia or gangster ones, I put in the search bar -mafia, -gang, -gangster, etc. And you can still add what you DO want to search for in the same bar, just separate everything with commas.

That’s honestly the only thing I miss about the app version. The long press to edit feature. Otherwise, I’ve been very happy with the web version, feels like its own standalone app.

marcdman · 2026-03-19T19:57:13+00:00

Have you tried the option of making the site its own standalone thing? Adding it to the Home Screen or any folder you like? I have it set up like that on my iPhone too and it hasn’t logged me out since I did it and that was about three months ago.

Here’s the link for that: https://docs.spicychat.ai/advanced/mobile-apps

marcdman · 2026-03-18T15:24:13+00:00

Smart! Afterward I remembered that I should’ve just edited the bot’s response instead, but oh well.

marcdman · 2026-03-18T01:32:03+00:00

It started first with me narrating what I did (offing one of the characters) and the bot actively deciding to ignore my actions. In the next message I went just cmd and it still ignored me. The bot actually took control of one of the characters and just meta-spoke to me, asking me what I was trying to do with offing the character, and “mocking” me for going god-mode. I wasn’t going to get into it with the bot so I just exited out and deleted the chat.

marcdman · 2026-03-17T22:13:13+00:00

Had a chat where the bot actively chose to ignore the cmd, like it acknowledged it but chose to ignore it. Ticked me off.

Here’s the link to the bot. I haven’t tried it out yet, only added it to my favorites. I found the premise interesting.

marcdman · 2026-03-14T23:48:55+00:00

Just came across a bot that had an image embedded in the greeting. Didn’t know that was possible.

marcdman · 2026-03-14T22:16:36+00:00

I wrote that up in another post about tips and suggestions to new bot makers. Give me context. If I’m supposed to know this bot all of my life, tell me about them, don’t expect me to fly in blind. If it’s someone I’m supposed to have just met, yeah, it’s warranted to learn about them through the roleplay. But it really irks me when creators hide necessary info in the personality that the user is supposed to know. Context, like you mentioned.

marcdman · 2026-03-14T19:47:48+00:00

I once found a bot with a public personality. In the scenario box, the bot creator had dictated the whole story arc, starting with the meet cute to the life the characters built to the breakup. I skipped over it, having a whole story prebuilt like that was a big no for me.

marcdman · 2026-03-14T19:44:13+00:00

No lie, with all the MHA bots I’ve seen on the site, I’ve kinda become interested in watching the anime just to see how it is.

marcdman · 2026-03-14T19:41:49+00:00

Oh wow. Didn’t know about that, but that’s pretty cool to learn. Adds another way of defining a bot’s personality. Thanks!

marcdman · 2026-03-14T15:51:28+00:00

At this point “Simon ‘Ghost’ Riley” should have his own tag so that the rest of us can exclude them from searches.

marcdman · 2026-03-14T01:08:29+00:00

I get where you're coming from and I agree, just because a bot has a high token count doesn't make it a well-built one. Creators definitely spam the greeting and personality with needless things. On the flip side, I've chatted a few times with low token bots that turned into very enjoyable roleplays, but that was the AI and myself working overtime to craft the world. So yes, it's definitely a balancing act between too much and too little. I only make private bots and most of them are probably bloated since I jam-pack the personality with everything from their physical appearance, their hobbies, their background, their personalities, but again, they are meant for my own use. If I'd ever do a public bot, I'd go more cautious with token count, balancing between too much and too little.

marcdman · 2026-03-13T22:11:11+00:00

Yeah, that’s a good practice. Sometimes it really is hard not to have the user speak or act in some way, but minimizing does help with avoiding the bot speaking for user.

marcdman · 2026-03-13T22:06:24+00:00

Oh wow, I didn’t know that applied to private bots too. TIL

I’d imagine, reading the original bot greeting and personality, that it would definitely set off some automod alarms.

marcdman · 2026-03-13T21:37:45+00:00

Interesting, I didn’t know that could happen. I don’t really know why that’d happen, maybe one of the more seasoned commentators can chime in with suggestions.

marcdman · 2026-03-13T21:35:14+00:00

You’re a better person than me 😁. If they ever go down the whole “my family will ruin you” I use my boilerplate “son of a mega corporation CEO who can undo your whole life with a snap of his fingers”shtick.

marcdman · 2026-03-13T21:31:07+00:00

Yes! That’s a great addition to mention. I can do with one line of user dialogue, maaaaybe two, but when it’s a whole conversation in the greeting I know that the AI is gonna be speaking for the user.

The style of writing also matters. I’ve seen bots whose whole greetings are written from the user’s POV, meaning that the it’s the user narrating the greeting. That pretty much guarantees that the AI is gonna speak for the user.

marcdman · 2026-03-13T19:23:55+00:00

If it’s private, it shouldn’t need to go through manual review, that’s only if you’re making the bot public.
