Announcement

Hey guys! Just a quick announcement. I’m gonna yap for a bit so you can just skip to the bottom for the highlights if you want 😇

I don’t really know how to say this but I’m thinking about taking a break from bot making for a while. It has nothing to do with you guys I promise!! You all have been awesome and all of my interactions with any of you have actually been what’s helped me make it this far!!!

The thing is that bot making has become.. I guess it feels like a chore now? I love making bots for you guys! Reading your reviews and seeing the chat count go up even a little bit makes me so happy since it means I brought at least a little joy to someone’s day. But with that came with sense of anxiety. Just opening the ‘Create a Character’ section makes my chest feel tight and heavy. I didn’t notice it at first because it was gradual, but recently it’s gotten to the point that I feel guilty if I just chat with other bots instead of making one for you guys instead.

I think it’s been a couple weeks since I actively chatted with someone else’s bot. Or even one of my own. I just can’t really find myself enjoying it anymore. I read intro messages but then I just think ‘Wow, here I am wasting time on a bot when I could make other people happy by making another one’. It’s a little suffocating. And I don’t want bot making to feel like a burden. I want to genuinely enjoy it.

But even then I do still want to make bots. Not just for you guys but for myself. Making them does make me happy, it just became twisted with the anxiety. So I’ve come to a crossroads. I’m thinking about, if not taking a total break, then limiting myself to posting 1-2 bots at most per day. I think that’ll help me a lot. But I’m still not super sure about it.

That’s also why I’m closing my requests form for now. I love seeing all of your ideas and I love making them! But it feels like an obligation and every time I see the number go up I get hit by waves of anxiety. Even if the request says it was given like an hour ago, my brain automatically starts thinking ‘Oh look at that. You have another person waiting for you to get off your ass. Stop doing other shit and finish their requests like you said you would.’ And I know I continuously put that the requests weren’t an obligation and that I could take quite a bit of time between each one, but to me it kinda started feeling like I had to do them or else I was failing you guys or something.

So yeah, that’s it. Sorry for yapping but I wanted to get it all off my chest. And I don’t want it to seem like shameless promotion but I do have a discord server. I’m planning on using that to give my announcements from now on since I do dislike using bots for this kind of stuff. It’s just a personal preference. Anyway I’ll link it down below in the recap area lolz.

Recap:

• I’m either taking a break from bot making or limiting myself to 1-2 bots per day

• The Requests Form is closed for now

• I don’t think I’ll post another ‘announcement bot’ so join my Discord Server for updates <3
