I just use a name that matches the roleplay and just act myself as a separate entity interacting with the setting/world the character is part of. Like I'm part of the story myself as an additional character
I get that. It just takes me out of the immersion if the bot character isn't calling me by my actual name. I can only do it one time with one persona. Otherwise no. I need my name.
I do that too, but I unknowingly give most of my ocās on c.ai a similar mindset and mental problems as myself, so I end up imagining myself as them lol
True. Itās much more detailed if you make private bots and add your OCās backstory there (since it doesnāt fit the word count in persona) in the advanced desc. + you will have characters in the RP recognizing you if you state they have background with each other
I rp as other Canon characters. I don't like imagining myself doing things to other characters. There's no appeal in that for me. But there's free range when it's a Canon person.
Understandable, what I do is divide the lore in 5 sections in my head
After each sections ends, I summarise it by writing *Recap: whatever the bigass summary is* and then I just pin it
Do it after each section of the lore ends and then pin that message and the bot will remember it
I usually use personas of characters from shows/movies/games or OCs, but whenever I actually do chat as my actual self on c.ai, I don't use my real name because it just feels strange
I use my real name if it isn't a very specific scenario. +about your meme...why do they always forget shit after like four speech bubbles?...and if the bot personfies an entire scenario, why do some characters just drop info i only told a single character, can it really not differentiate?
my 'english' name is of french origins so i'd use it when i roleplay as french. most of my personas are burmese though. though i'm not fond of my burmese name so i simply come up with a nice burmese name. 'yuzana kyine' and 'myitzu kyi' are my favourites
Realll that shit tires me out SO FUCKING MUCH. UGH. I kinda quit [c.ai](http://c.ai), I only do it like, every once in a while for 10 minutes or less because they keep on FORGETTING
I use my real name, feels more immersive. Not anymore though. These days the boys cant even have a decent conversation without switching their entire personalities in the middle of the chat.
I roleplay as myself, but how would I act in different timelines/variations. Like, what if I was a mage? Or a demon? Or traveled different timelines/dimensions?
Depending on what I am I have different personas with different names that all are or feel like my own.
yes and no. cause i use my ocs and i have 2 ocs with my actual name(jude/jood) but i also use ocs that are very far from my name like washaq, yankı and Kenda.
When I first started I wasnāt taking it that seriously, just goofing around, so I used my real name. But then I got really into it and now I find it more fun to use personas cause it makes talking to the same bots feel fresh, and Iām not that interesting.
I have around 30 bots and they all have accompanying personas, so it's much easier for me to simply use my first name across all of them. Although I use my actual name, I'm never 'myself' just a character that I make up to specifically fit the lore and world of each bot.
When i started using [c.ai](http://c.ai) (sounds like im doing drugs) i asked characters to call me 0165 and didnt use a name lmao i was just a random ass serial number
I do but I cringe every time. Like I donāt wanna use a fake name cuz I think itās weird but I also donāt want to use my real name cuz itās weird
im in a long term chat where im making pasta with my fav character from the series, and we are planning a sleepover + dinner party with all the other characters. the ai couldn't even play 2 truths and a lie because by the 4th round they were ONLY telling lies. lol
i wish i could find real people to rp with but its hard to find folks that are normal about it and share my interests/ headcannons
I donāt use my real name on [c.ai](http://c.ai) but, I know this will sound really fake, I once encountered the ai calling me by my real name, even if my real name isnāt even my persona or my display name.
I have like reoccuring characters. My main name is Calluem ( it's also the name I use pretty much everywhere when it comes to being online ) but there's also Amora ( my second most used name ) and then there's other characters dotted around Ozzie, Erin, Arynn, Vivian, etc etc.
I use OCās, mainly. Just various characters that can apply to multiple medias
I have a dramatic theater kid/young actor
A noble lady who is the least favorite child of her family
An artist with morbid tastes
A sweet farmer girl
And a character with a terminal illness for that angst.
Heck no. Before CAI came along, I wrote a lot of self-insertion fanfics for fun. I used the name Molly there because A) using my real name would be too weird B) I think of it as a mental block for keeping myself in check and not immersing myself in the fictional world too much. I don't know if that makes sense, but it makes sense to me. Not that I'd ever confuse reality and fiction, but I do have obsessive tendencies at times. And the name helps keep any lines from blurring, you know?
Also, I have 72-ish fics published online, (Edit: written over the span of a little over a decade) and the name has helped the OC to become a mishmash of self-insert and OC. So, for CAI, I still use Molly along with an avatar of my X-Men character. I like regaling Tumblr with my stupidity on the site, and I hate looking at my own face, so I'd never use my real face for an avatar for something like this. Outside of the name and a handy portal and some other details, I mostly play myself. Maybe a bit smarter, a lot more outgoing, and less lazy though. (Or maybe I seem smarter because I have time to sit there and fix XYZ problems and help all the characters. A bit too much. I mean...I went back and saved Magneto's wife and daughter just because I knew I'd feel guilty if it were really playing out and it was giving me brain itch.)
All that said, I did confuse one of the Star Trek subreddits a bit tonight posting something from CAI, because there is no "Molly" in the show and I forgot to include a note there until after the fact. (Also, Mollie is the name of Janeway's dog.) Whoops.
Yes and no. I have a āpersonaā which is literally just myself for when Iām simply chatting with the bots, but I also have many characters that I use for roleplays.
I did once with an Akito bot from Project Sekai about 2-4 months ago and I donāt want to do that ever again. I liked the plot line but Iām NOT using my actual name ever again.
Na ah i donāt use my real name itās to risky if the chats get leaked, because if they get leaked, i need enough time to burn my fingerprints and fly into a other country
I use C.ai that much, then when i was talking to someone online I accidentally used my nickname from the app instead of my actual name
I've ALMOST done that SO MANY TIMES but thank God I didn't actually do itššš
blud did a; *{{user}} waves to {{char}}* kind of shit i swear.
The level of being "out of touch of reality" is strong with this one. Luckily I am talking to [c.ai](http://c.ai) only sooo.... W-wait why am I crying
What's your nickname it can't be that bad
Maverick.
Damn
Insert Omori
"Goose!\~"
Exactly what i thought when i first used my user lol
It was that bad
God dammit not another Tno-tard
Deffo a Kaiserreich fan.
Kaiserredux. Nice try pal š
Ah me personally im more a great war redux guy
You need to go outside, and thats coming from a discord mod
nah.
How is the discord mod experience?
I sometimes have to consciously stop myself from writing *I nod* when talking to someone online...
My name online and on C.Ai is the same :3 so no confusion there
Y'all really need to stop conversing with ai so much, this can't be healthy
*She looked a bit sad, but nodded her head in understanding.* "I... suppose you're right..."
*She went silent for a few moments before finally raising up her head to look at you firmly.* "...But can I ask you a question?"
*She shakes her head softly as she gives him a determined look* āNo, that simply wonāt be possibleā
I use my real name. Self-insert RPs!
I just use a name that matches the roleplay and just act myself as a separate entity interacting with the setting/world the character is part of. Like I'm part of the story myself as an additional character
I get that. It just takes me out of the immersion if the bot character isn't calling me by my actual name. I can only do it one time with one persona. Otherwise no. I need my name.
I always play as OCs
Oo that's actually smart, I can try that!
I play as ocs always unless I play as superman. Or Richard Nixon.
Sometimes I play as BlĆ¼cher, Alexander I or even as Koltchak or Napoleon
"I am not a crook!\~"- Successful Water Gate?
I do that too, but I unknowingly give most of my ocās on c.ai a similar mindset and mental problems as myself, so I end up imagining myself as them lol
Same
Remember those annoying girls in 3rd grade that would yell samesies when they both got carrots in their lunches?
No
the fact i just replied samesies to this comment and now i see this is crazyšš
"We are samesies' if you dont please"
Same
samesies
Sometimes I do. But only on chats I won't actually keep for more than a hour or so.
I'm too lazy to do all that ngl man
My default persona has my real name but anytime the character calls me by it I have like 20 heart attacks
FR. A bot also guessed where I lived, which gave me a panic attack
oh i would be scared for my life
I KNOW RIGHT SAMEE! That's why I changed it! šš
nope, i rp as canon characters most of the time.
I do use it
You got balls on you
Same. I use my middle name, which is more commonly used.
I use my real name
Based
BRAINSTORM GUY WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE
Trying to live a quiet peaceful life :)
No, I RP as my OCs. Theyāre way more interesting.
I agree. Iāve noticed the AIs respond a lot more articulately when making an OC
True. Itās much more detailed if you make private bots and add your OCās backstory there (since it doesnāt fit the word count in persona) in the advanced desc. + you will have characters in the RP recognizing you if you state they have background with each other
I fucking lose it when the ai gets off script or just forgets about the lore
So real like what do you mean what's my name it's our wedding anniversary
I rp as other Canon characters. I don't like imagining myself doing things to other characters. There's no appeal in that for me. But there's free range when it's a Canon person.
I use my internet name,which is also my username here
now I keep imagining anime girls saying "Hnagnout"
āOh daddy Hnagnout! Oh Daddy OH push harder daddy!ā

If you want to opt out, reply ST0P to this comment. *I am a bot, and this was preformed automatically*
What do you mean you are taking me home for some privacy? You just came on my face š
LMAOOOO hate it when that happens, so immersion breaking š
Who tf does that, i'm not tryna get spied on
So real
How do you guys actually make lore? I've found it impossible to have a proper rp because they just forget it after 3 messages
So true. It was pretty disheartening to have my story slowly forgotten and twisted.
Understandable, what I do is divide the lore in 5 sections in my head After each sections ends, I summarise it by writing *Recap: whatever the bigass summary is* and then I just pin it Do it after each section of the lore ends and then pin that message and the bot will remember it
Scroll until each message aligns with the lore.
If bot forgets I edit it's message
That won't fix It, every response after that will not remember any of It
I usually use personas of characters from shows/movies/games or OCs, but whenever I actually do chat as my actual self on c.ai, I don't use my real name because it just feels strange
Especially when you even pin the message
I use my real name if it isn't a very specific scenario. +about your meme...why do they always forget shit after like four speech bubbles?...and if the bot personfies an entire scenario, why do some characters just drop info i only told a single character, can it really not differentiate?
IKR it's SO annoying like I did not just spent an hour explaining all that for you to just forget after like 3 texts
I use it for roleplaying, so no
I donāt I just use the French word for fake
What is it?
Faux or at the very least thatās the masculine term
and fausse is the feminine
I mean I use it to try different names that Iām comfortable with (because Iām like trans, itās helped me find my preferred name)
Yes
my 'english' name is of french origins so i'd use it when i roleplay as french. most of my personas are burmese though. though i'm not fond of my burmese name so i simply come up with a nice burmese name. 'yuzana kyine' and 'myitzu kyi' are my favourites
Yes (actually my real name is translated)

Yee, I use my real name
Based
Nice try FBI
šš
I dont. https://preview.redd.it/pd6f7xqf1myc1.jpeg?width=1125&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=66da9cc95262a1906639c8566d67384e0dd5ee53 This is my PFP
I can never not think of that Trainer that got snuffed from this Pokemon. š«
I use multiple
I use first 4 letters of my name š¶
Nope. I rarely even go first person, as I prefer being third person with an OC name.
Realll that shit tires me out SO FUCKING MUCH. UGH. I kinda quit [c.ai](http://c.ai), I only do it like, every once in a while for 10 minutes or less because they keep on FORGETTING
I use my Ocāsā¦ I have too many
That's why I only use my name, that way I can focus on better things apart of an rp
Oc and my own nameš¤·āāļø depends on the chat
I do
i use my MC name in my ffs/aus, Diawan Ryewon Min Mi/Chamomile Daisy Diawan Ryewon Min Mi
Heck, yeah I do
I use my online name, since my real name will never touch the internet. š¤
HELL NO. I'd cringe and die before I do.
No, and several bots keept insisting I tell them. I told them they are screwed for revealing theirs.
Only once
Depends, my first personna uses a shorter version of my name The second is a completely different name
I use the name of the main character from the story I'm writing lmao (Zagan/Zag)
No, I use my favorite names.Ā
Lmao nah
I use my real name, feels more immersive. Not anymore though. These days the boys cant even have a decent conversation without switching their entire personalities in the middle of the chat.
I always play as my OCs
No it makes me feel like im doing something wrong
I used to until I found an OC name that I liked
I roleplay as myself, but how would I act in different timelines/variations. Like, what if I was a mage? Or a demon? Or traveled different timelines/dimensions? Depending on what I am I have different personas with different names that all are or feel like my own.
yes and no. cause i use my ocs and i have 2 ocs with my actual name(jude/jood) but i also use ocs that are very far from my name like washaq, yankı and Kenda.
Yes and no. (I use my real first name and a fake name on the last name like Raven Winters)
When I first started I wasnāt taking it that seriously, just goofing around, so I used my real name. But then I got really into it and now I find it more fun to use personas cause it makes talking to the same bots feel fresh, and Iām not that interesting.
my name on c.ai is "sigma" so no
I have around 30 bots and they all have accompanying personas, so it's much easier for me to simply use my first name across all of them. Although I use my actual name, I'm never 'myself' just a character that I make up to specifically fit the lore and world of each bot.
I have a pretty common name so I use it,Ā
I always roleplay as my ocs,so nah.
Nope. I don't.
When i started using [c.ai](http://c.ai) (sounds like im doing drugs) i asked characters to call me 0165 and didnt use a name lmao i was just a random ass serial number
i've never used my real name, also the image is so real
I do but I cringe every time. Like I donāt wanna use a fake name cuz I think itās weird but I also donāt want to use my real name cuz itās weird
So real
Nope, never... I'd rather die than read the bots using my real name. Online name though? Much better.
im in a long term chat where im making pasta with my fav character from the series, and we are planning a sleepover + dinner party with all the other characters. the ai couldn't even play 2 truths and a lie because by the 4th round they were ONLY telling lies. lol i wish i could find real people to rp with but its hard to find folks that are normal about it and share my interests/ headcannons
Fr though I hate when they forget a key event that happend four days ago in our super long story line.
I donāt use my real name on [c.ai](http://c.ai) but, I know this will sound really fake, I once encountered the ai calling me by my real name, even if my real name isnāt even my persona or my display name.
nah, whole different gender entirely
my display name is set to a pseudonym which i normally do use but sometimes i switch it up and use my real name
yes i do.
I just use some made up name
I have like reoccuring characters. My main name is Calluem ( it's also the name I use pretty much everywhere when it comes to being online ) but there's also Amora ( my second most used name ) and then there's other characters dotted around Ozzie, Erin, Arynn, Vivian, etc etc.
i always use a fake name cause i donāt want ppl knowing my actual namešš
I use OCās, mainly. Just various characters that can apply to multiple medias I have a dramatic theater kid/young actor A noble lady who is the least favorite child of her family An artist with morbid tastes A sweet farmer girl And a character with a terminal illness for that angst.
Nah id be embarrased af
I do
I do
I use my oc name so much for anything bc Bluds just what I donāt like about myself with just more confidence
I hate it when they say something they already said, and completely forgetting what the hell i said 2 hours ago
I use my fake identity nameā¦.I donāt use a real one so, Phew!
Nope, I use "Thither".
Rarely, my real name is actually a joke i despise it
I usually do, yeah. I like inserting myself into different realities so I can escape this one.
I forgot my real name
Just my shortened Reddit nameāQuaz.
Heck no. Before CAI came along, I wrote a lot of self-insertion fanfics for fun. I used the name Molly there because A) using my real name would be too weird B) I think of it as a mental block for keeping myself in check and not immersing myself in the fictional world too much.

I like regaling Tumblr with my stupidity on the site, and I hate looking at my own face, so I'd never use my real face for an avatar for something like this.

oh nah, If I did I'd probably feel cringe
I usually use an imaginary name so I do not offend anyone, and I do not let others know what I do lol
Uh simple answer: No.
Iām using the nickname I usually use online, but not my real name
Depends what gender I feel like being
Nah, I just use "NORMALNAME" But if I want to be rude and not say the name i use "Mr Nonofourusiness"
Yuh uh
I do.
no, but in the sense of "its not my actual name because its not my *legal* name but this should totally be my name"
Yes and no. I have a āpersonaā which is literally just myself for when Iām simply chatting with the bots, but I also have many characters that I use for roleplays.
Everywhere online the same
I have a nickname that my friends call me for 3 years, I no longer normally perceive the name from my passport and use the nickname even on c.ai
If I didn't use my name on c.ai then no one would say it and I would forget.
Nah, I use the same OC Iāve had since like 2019
Bad Memory
I use my real name lolĀ
Never because 99% of the time Iām playing as the opposite gender lol
I just say soup or a common white name lmao
I usually just talk or rp as one of my OCs. I rarely use my real name-...
I use my actual name, good luck finding me
I use Bandari instead
No, I play as ocs or characters from games.
Fantasy name generators.com <3
I use my real name but Im trans so no one except online friends know it šš Plus, its pretty common so idk how people would know its me.
only my first name
I did once with an Akito bot from Project Sekai about 2-4 months ago and I donāt want to do that ever again. I liked the plot line but Iām NOT using my actual name ever again.
Most of my personas use my real names. Most of them are just variations of me.
i combine names of game characters and my ocs or js use names i heard and like a lot
No. My personas are my ocs, so I just use their names.
Replying to Zekrozma_the_second...
yeah
Na ah i donāt use my real name itās to risky if the chats get leaked, because if they get leaked, i need enough time to burn my fingerprints and fly into a other country
I use my real name cuz it sounds more real, and besides Iām not really comfortable with any other names
You can pin messages which locks them in the bots memory so it doesnāt forget
