Perchance - Create a Random Text Generator
⚄︎ Perchance
This is a Lemmy Community for perchance.org, a platform for sharing and creating random text generators.
Feel free to ask for help, share your generators, and start friendly discussions at your leisure :)
This community is mainly for discussions between those who are building generators. For discussions about using generators, especially the popular AI ones, the community-led Casual Perchance forum is likely a more appropriate venue.

- You can ask for help with prompting at the 'sister' community Casual Perchance, which is for more casual discussions.
- We will still be helping/answering questions about the plugins as long as it is related to building generators with them.

Privately owned websites that have chatrooms are not recommended for the faint of heart. That's just the truth. The file uploader has a filter for content, your claims that people are using the website to share CSAM is a loaded claim.
"user-generated outputs within these specific generators contain explicit logs of extremely questionable fantasies" Other than galleries that have images the generations that we users create are images that we save from our own browsers. What logs are you talking about? The information on every user's browser is different. It is clear that you do not know how this website works. If you are looking at anyone's logs it would indicate that you are spying on other people's browsers somehow.
"Internal moderation on this site is entirely absent and non-functional" That is an obvious lie, there have been bans in the chatrooms and there are filters on what can be uploaded.
"A few witness testimonies can be found here" Only one of the images is visible for me the links don't work for the others.
"large population of underage users completely exposed to dangerous individuals without any active safety oversight or intervention."
The parents of any children should monitor their children's internet activities, this is a website owned by a private citizen, it has filters, moderation, warnings on pages for adult oriented generators. You have lied more than a few times in this post and made baseless claims. This website is not a business that charges the users money or a project that is sustained by donations.
"Please, remove the comments of the site; or the site itself immediately to prevent further illegal activity!" You're not providing proof of your claims. That's the problem.
Chatlogs, obviously It’s helpful if you do me the honors of merely asking instead of jumping to conclusions
Relative to the gen that we’re referencing, please name me at least one person that’s been actually banned for egregious behavior by a moderator RECENTLY
Mate Did you add the https:// to the beginning of the links? It’s not that they don’t work It is, as you put it; censoring of the image given its verbal content Adding what I just mentioned should be of value
And what specifically would you like me to provide evidence for? I’ve already literally provided the formal case ID, and witness testimonies; what specifically do you want me to prove?
This is a pretty good example of what I’m referencing The user present in the photo, with the tag KSTG was sent literal infant sexual assault material in their secret messages under the guise that is was a “dog picture”
The image was further circulated likely due to immaturity, and chaos obviously ensured
If you have any specific questions about this, most of the users on there actually keep quite a detailed log of offending users on something called “exposed channels” where they catalogue what others are doing an enforce a DNI social rule
Chatrooms themselves are this way, no one should click links in chatrooms, why would any of you go into a room full of anonymous users that you cannot hold accountable especially if they use VPNs? Why click on unknown catbox links? This is stupid behavior. Chatrooms themselves are neutral, the people in them are not. The same is true with VRchat or 4chan; neither one of those has been shut down yet. Perchance is not at fault for simply allowing chatrooms on their private website, they have a moderation system even if you don't like it. That is no reason to lie about them and claim moderation is entirely absent. Avoid the chatrooms, enter at your own risk. The same advice was true with the first internet chatrooms created and it is still true now.
I cannot agree more, and many others have pointed this out before you; but do you think this is even remotely practical for the average user (who’s likely a 12-16 yo) there? Absolutely not!
Under federal laws like the STRIKE Act and strict international regulations, platforms have zero immunity when it comes to child sexual abuse material (CSAM) or severe exploitation. A platform cannot legally contract out of criminal liability by telling users to "enter at their own risk." If illegal content is being facilitated or hosted, the platform is legally obligated to remove it, regardless of any disclaimers. If a platform’s moderation system routinely allows severe, systemic exploitation to occur without intervention, the system is functionally non-existent for those violations.
Courts increasingly view broken, unstaffed, or purely performative moderation systems as evidence of willful blindness or gross negligence. Private ownership does not grant a license to ignore federal crimes.
If a lock on a door is broken and anyone can walk in, saying "the building has no security" is an accurate description of reality, even if a broken lock technically physical exists.
Get out of the Wild West mentality, bystanding does nothing now
Merely not entering the chat doesn’t erase criminal liability, it doesn’t erase the nudes of these children being exchanged, and it surely doesn’t have any actual significance in the broader pursuit of legal justice.
Come on dude, you and me both know it won’t do anything to address the matter at hand
I'm not your mate or your dude. No. None of that "come on dude" stuff with me. I don't like the fact that you lied and said moderation was entirely absent on this website

"There is no enacted federal law officially designated as the "STRIKE Act." However, labor-related legislation, such as the Empowering Striking Workers Act of 2025 (S. 2731 / H.R. 5206) and the Tax Cut for Striking Workers Act, have been introduced in Congress to provide unemployment benefits and tax relief for striking workers." - Gemini AI
Are you talking about British laws? Because we do not have that here in the US.

What are you even citing? Because you have yet to prove anything except show some chat logs, you can report the users. You have yet to prove that Perchance has committed or ignored any crime.

You're citing an article or something. I don't care about slogans, I care about substance, You have made substantial claims and lied a few times about both the absence of moderation and filtering which I have tested myself and had both image and text blocked by the upload filter, there are posts about that function on this Lemmy forum. Your trustworthiness was shot when you lied in the first post.
Please, use Google or reference my upper reply Yes, we do
I, explaining, and I’m not obligated to prove anything to you in anus ense. I’m only trying to explain the background, and the immense urgency of the issue at hand. My goal was, and is; to get the attention of the dev so I can forward all the available data to him.
Believe me, I’m interested in winning this pedantic internet flame war with another brick wall; but I’m legally liable if I directly distribute imagery or links to the imagery here; or at all.
Again, for the love of Christ, all reports only go to an automated AI system that shadowbans users for an extended period of time depending on the rate and frequency they’re reported at. Didn’t you, someone’s who’s claiming to be knowledgeable of the site, read what the developer themselves on this? Can you explain how this can legally ensure the material is being further hindered permanently besides a literal menial temporary ban? No, you can’t.
You’re failing to meet YOUR burden of proof now Prove that human moderation on the site has been present as of less than two years ago
That obviously, only works to a certain extent and can’t ensure the actual removal of said materials
Hence, in the scenario it even was removed, distribution on both public and private channels would exist for genuine trade / shock factor
It’s the biggest driver of why I want the site to be deleted
By site, to clarify, I mean AIC Not perchance collectively
