GIVE ME SUGGESTIONS, IDEAS, REQUESTS, WHATEVER! 🎉

Hey, guys! I just wanted to say thank you for helping me reach 700 followers. Considering that I don't usually get many direct requests anymore, I would like to encourage you all to give me any suggestions, requests, etc. for any chatbots you'd like to see me make. With how things are for me right now, I honestly cannot guarantee that I will do a lot of them in a timely manner, and so you might have to bear with me if you do suggest anything.

So far, I've felt the urge to make:

1. The Helltaker: From Helltaker, mostly because I feel like he doesn't get much attention here... Maybe I could make two bots, one in Hell and one in his house?

2. Cerberus: Also from Helltaker, although it will test the limits of my bot-making—considering it'll be technically three characters packaged in one.

3. Gamma: A sequel to my Malice bot, featuring the artist's male alien OC—Malice's brother! He will be equally voracious, he'll nom you because you're annoying, not because you're tasty.

4. Something Warhammer 40k-related: Another Necron (Orikan, Zahndrekh, Obyron?), Hadron Omega-7-7 from Darktide, an Arbitrator, etc.

5. Deltarune: Seam, Jevil, Swatch, Rudy (in hospital, {{user}} as a nurse), QC.

Please feel free to give your own suggestions, or show your support for any of the ideas I've listed above.

Yap time. Skip this if you please!

Recently, I've felt quite held up by a lot of stuff being thrown into my face all at once, and so I've been going through a bit of a turbulent part of my life. Not to go into excessive and personal detail, but I was doing an educational course for History and English. I ended up smashing English with an A-Grade—because of course I did—but History wasn't nearly as impressive. The exams were honestly quite hard, but I did get a passing grade thanks to some really good essay I wrote that we had like a year to do—a year that I wasted 'till like the last few months, lol. As a result, I'm wondering what to do with my life now. The rest of my family and some close friends have suggested uni, and eventually I'll need to look for work, but I dunno what my next steps will be or in what direction.

I would say that I've been absent from Janitor, but at the same time I don't really think I have. I've been playing with a few bot ideas, trying some chats of my own, trying to find alternatives to Deepseek now that Openrouter is being shitty—Gemini seems really good—and even testing a new format I've learnt from another bot creator. I haven't used it yet for any actual bots, only for personas, but at the same time I don't know if I really will use it for any of my own bots anyway. A lot of the process—in my experience, at least—involves feeding a template into Gemini and giving it a bunch of reference material/suggestions to make the bot for you, and so I feel like it would sap the fun out of writing and testing it myself. At the same time, the stuff it produces is of very good quality, and it seems to have a good middle ground between detail and clarity for the bots. I'll eventually figure out a compromise, though—or just give in to either using it or not.

Honestly, Janitor recently has been a bit up and down for me, as I feel a pervasive anxiety that some of my favourite creators—or even myself—could be permanently and irrevocably banned without warning, but there are sometimes these rare moments when I definitely feel good being here with you all. Janitor has allowed me to share my writing with others, and has given me a nice side-hobby to distract myself with. The chatbots may be good, but it would be worth nothing without your support encouraging me to keep coming back and making even a little bit more.

Thank you all!
