This is something I've been considering for a long time.

I've been thinking about quitting bot creation for a long time, and there were many reasons that made me consider making this decision. However, something always happened that made me return to creating bots. Mainly because of the few true friends (Mainly Cynara and Nariku) I made on this platform. They always motivated me to keep doing what I was doing. However, the more time passed, the more I felt like I no longer got any satisfaction from it. Creating bots became something I did because I felt I had to.

The breaks became longer and longer. First, I published bots weekly, then every two weeks. Now I publish a bot every two months, and honestly, I no longer feel satisfied with creating these characters. That's why I made this decision. I see no reason to force myself to do something that no longer brings me satisfaction.

Another reason is how many creators have been banned from this platform recently. For many, character creation has become a process where you have to carefully read the entire FAQ and TOS to avoid accidentally doing something that will result in a ban. This has also become exhausting.

That's why I've made this decision – I'm quitting character creation. And I'm going to focus on other things that bring me joy, like drawing or writing stories.

As you might have noticed, some of my characters have disappeared from my account. These were characters I wasn't happy with, and I didn't want to keep them on this account. The rest will stay here for a while, and then I'll see. I might delete them. I can't promise anything.

Finally, I'd like to thank all of you for being with me. It's been a wonderful adventure that didn't last long, but I'm most happy for the few close people I've met thanks to this platform. Thank you again, and well. I wish you all the best in your lives, your passions, and whatever you do.

One last time, Kikuro.
Thanks for everything.
