So currently, the website is exploding. As a creator on here, I believe I have some right to say something. It’s a whole rabbit hole into the drama but let’s just say that the entire site has had problems that the devs have swept under the rug. As a CS student who has done AI work, agentic and training, I can’t say I’m surprised with allegations of viewing chats against Shep.

But more importantly, CSAM has no place on an adult website like this. Yes. This is an adult space. Not pornographic but an adult, 18+ site.

With all of this in mind, and my personal experiences as a CSA survivor, I’m not comfortable in engaging with this site.

‎

Ive been gone for a bit before this, why?

That boils down to life. I was on vacation, meeting my family after years of separation, and I didn’t have time to make bots. My physical and mental health is also a priority for me since I have a chronic illness and I’ll be honest, I don’t have the privilege of dealing with it. I just have to swallow the pain and continue working, otherwise I’m screwed.

‎

So... where am I going now?

Staying on Janitor is going to be very hard for me.

I love creating characters. I believe every creator here always had a passion for writing, no matter how small. I started off writing undertale fanfiction, to genshin and star rail fanfics. They were horrible. Didn’t mean that I stopped loving the craft. It was an escape.

These characters are my experience, crafted from experiences in my fucked up life. That being said, I’m not sure if I will completely move to SP entirely. SP has its own culture, and I’m not sure if me migrating amongst the myriad of other jai creators is the best choice for me. This comes down to OG SP users, the culture there and the events I’ve already done on Janitor.

Nonetheless, I’ve uploaded a few bots to a new place just to test the waters to see how I feel about the new environment. Click here to check it out!

Are my bots going anywhere?

I will keep the bots I am proud of up on my account for now. But I’m feeling extremely uncertain whether or not I will continue making bots here or not.

‎

Now that I’ve got most of the important stuff off my chest, I’d like to tell everyone to take care of their mental health first. AI chatbots are addictive. They prey on vulnerable people, but I regard AI sites like these as a mode of storytelling.

So please, take care of yourself. You’re in control here. Drink lots of water and remember to reach out when you feel like the world is too much.

Love you all!
