Hi! I have been making bots for a year now and here are some of my takeaways when writing for JLLM. I will update this more as I think up. But this section will be focusing on BOT making.

- Tip: KISS - keep it short and simple. JLLM is smart and work best when kept clear and concise. Also, try to keep your permanent token at less than 1200.

Example: he will manipulate {{user}} and gaslight {{user}} into loving him

Can be made concise:

Traits: Manipulative, Gaslighter

- Tip: Use Bot Name. Use the bot’s name rather than {{char}}. I think char was broken for a long time. Instead of saying {{char}} and {{user}} are best friends, say something like (if your character is Dominic for example):
Dominic is best friends with {{user}}

- Tip: To minimize speaking for {{user}} write your personality and scenarios in such a way that {{user}} is always the target and NOT the subject. In short, make sure {{user}} is merely a subject receiving the action and not a doer.
example:
Illidan and {{user}} are helping each other invade the Black Temple

Write something like:

Illidan is invading the black Temple and needs {{user}}’s help.

Same thought but pay attention to the sentence construction.

As a corollary to this, try to use ACTIVE voice rather than passive.

- Tip: Initial Message matters a lot. Try to insert inner thoughts, other characters and the length you want. This is not always foolproof. But this provides a “primer” or a “base” for the bot to use and work with.

- Tip: Be careful with Scenario box. It can cause looping. But it is helpful for persistent facts like lore and world info. Your AI guidance prompts and other directives can go here too.
