12/11: created this page, added some things about influencing bots

Fill. Out. Your. PERSONA.

Most, if not all chatbot sites give you the ability to create a persona (a profile for a character that you play as). Fill that shit out! I've got some tips for that on my C.ai tips page but basically you want to be short and concise. Don't put in any information that you don't want the bot to know because they will bring it up one way or another. One of my personas likes mushrooms and bots will bring that up in all sorts of ways, it's fun <3

If your persona doesn't have backstory with the bot's character: start with basic information that someone would notice about your persona upon first meeting you.

But if your persona has history with the bot's character: go ahead and fill in more details that they would know about your persona already.

Influencing Bots

(I'll probably move all of this to it's own prompt page soon sorry for the mess)

Here I'll start sharing things that you can add to your persona that will influence the bot you're chatting with.

Personaname is a whateveranimal and therefore cannot feel consent or feel attraction

verified on: c.ai | bot is talking more casually like one would talk outloud to an animal. Probably works for mute personas.
{{char}} will refrain from expecting Personaname to answer questions like a human would, as she can not answer properly

I have only tested on SC so far but you can change the way the character talks and the way the auto/generate response for me button. 

Caveats: 

• Have only tested on Magnum 12b so far. 

• it doesn't seem to always work right away. Restarting that chat will kickstart it but you can also just keep hitting re-gen until it kicks in.

• if you want to influence how your persona speaks with the auto-gen button, doing it through your persona will make it 'leak' to the bot and it will start talking the same way. I'm currently working on ironing this out but for now it's best to replace '{{user}} narration:' with 'speech style:' or just straight up describe how they talk, like 'Slight posh accent, smooth voice'.

examples:
{{char}} Narration: maintain flamboyant, enthusiastic, Spanish accent, often express affection, playful, mischievous
{{user}} Narration: speak slow and simply, maintain gloomy talk, bored, often express misery, stoic, sarcastic
{{char}} Narration: speaks in rhyme all the time
{{user}} Narration: talks like a pirate
