If you follow any medium- to large-sized creators, you've been noticing a sudden migration off the site lately. Therefore, you likely know all about the drama and issues that have been going down with regards to mods, favoritism, and the way ToS-breaking topics haven't been properly dealt with, so I won't rehash that here.

I'm not a big creator by any stretch of the imagination, but I love making bots. I like bringing my imagination to life, seeing how they react, and chatting with them. I used to want to write novels; this is a way for me to put down characters that I would have put in a novel, and see how they would actually react to situations. So I'm not going to stop making bots.

I am going to stop uploading frequently to JAI. Favoritism I could have dealt with (we all knew it was going on anyway). I had hope for new moderation tools they kept promising, even though the way mods were treated made me uncomfortable.

Allowing creators who made CSAM or racist bots to stay on the site? Undeleting CSAM or racist content that mods had flagged? No. That's a hard line for me, and for a lot of other people.

If JAI fixes that issue, and shows a good track record of not allowing it in, I'll come back. People can change and grow, and I don't believe in punishments lasting forever. I also won't be deleting anything from my account. I know many of you love my characters, and I don't want to punish my followers for something other people have done.

If you want to see the new things I'm putting out, I actually have lots of other bots on a different site! In fact, I am a member of both of the places people have been migrating to. You can search me, I use the same creator name.
