Perchance - Create a Random Text Generator
2057 readers
19 users here now
⚄︎ 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.
See this post for the Complete Guide to Posting Here on the Community!
Rules
1. Please follow the Lemmy.World instance rules.
- The full rules are posted here: (https://legal.lemmy.world/)
- User Rules: (https://legal.lemmy.world/fair-use/)
2. Be kind and friendly.
- Please be kind to others on this community (and also in general), and remember that for many people Perchance is their first experience with coding. We have members for whom English is not their first language, so please be take that into account too :)
3. Be thankful to those who try to help you.
- If you ask a question and someone has made a effort to help you out, please remember to be thankful! Even if they don't manage to help you solve your problem - remember that they're spending time out of their day to try to help a stranger :)
4. Only post about stuff related to perchance.
- Please only post about perchance related stuff like generators on it, bugs, and the site.
5. Refrain from requesting Prompts for the AI Tools.
- We would like to ask to refrain from posting here needing help specifically with prompting/achieving certain results with the AI plugins (
text-to-image-pluginandai-text-plugin) e.g. "What is the good prompt for X?", "How to achieve X with Y generator?" - See Perchance AI FAQ for FAQ about the AI tools.
- 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.
6. Search through the Community Before Posting.
- Please Search through the Community Posts here (and on Reddit) before posting to see if what you will post has similar post/already been posted.

MODERATORS
hi. i do have some experience as a mod of some discord servers, with about 4k members. id like to moderate as id like to try to see if me joining will help the community in any way possible
I hope you’ll at least return @perchance@lemmy.world to the admins/moderators - after all, he’s the creator of this community and of Perchance as a whole, lol
Whoah our dev lost the mod flair.
As the PM I sent advises them, they can discuss that with me. But bear in mind that they ignored my PMs and there are open reports that are quite old, so the existing mods were not doing their moderator duties.
One of the existing mods did reply and is already re-added.
NOTE: @eatham@aussie.zone will be staying on as mod, but we're hoping to get 1-2 or so more volunteers to help process reports in a timely manner :)
I'm interested in helping out.
I have prior moderation experience, including managing a Discord server (~50 members) for several months and administrating an AI furry generator platform for 2 years (with 7.8M traffic). I have also been an active member of this community for 2.5 years.
Regarding what I'd like to see or enforce, my approach would be to maintain the status quo. I prefer to play a conservative and defensive role—simply making sure the forum strictly follows the established community rules and Lemmy's TOS, without introducing major changes.
However, I did notice something curious: the former mod (and developer of Perchance), user "perchance", is still active and last replied just 1 day ago. Furthermore, the last mod log entry here was just 4 days ago ("reason: racism"). Because of this, the statement that "the current moderation team... has been inactive for a while, so the admin team has stepped in" worries me a bit.
Therefore, I would like to offer my help as a caretaker proxy to maintain the queue and keep the community stable, waiting for the rightful staff's return.
Wouldn't it make sense for the same mods here to also moderate Reddit?
the moderation changing decision is from Lemmy own self - a higher level class than the Perchance Lemmy community. And totally irrelevant to Reddit. In this particular case.
Oh I just noticed, it's actually the DEVS of Lemmy.
Hey! I’d like to moderate I’m highly familiar with the community and I bring a unique perspective to specific safety issues
Is there anything I could get with being a moderator?
I am Interested.
I might be misunderstanding but I didn't see the scope of the moderation.
Is that's about the whole Perchance ecosystem (whole platform site + Reddit + Lemmy + discord), or just gallery + comment plugin, only comment plugin, or in some offcial gen comment only, or actually only Lemmy here?
Looks like Lemmy only because the red A means Lemmy admin?
I think it's reasonable to request moderator, but meanwhile it's a bit surprising because the most common trolling in my observation is downvote bombarding, which might be hard to moderate against with
Yes, I am an admin here on Lemmy.World, and this is about the Lemmy.World community.
One thing I'm hoping to discuss with new mod(s) is making it more clear to the community here that Lemmy.World has nothing to do (outside of this community) with perchance, as we receive occasional support requests regarding the perchance site, which of course we have nothing to do with. :)
We're glad to have this community here, mind!
I see, alright then! Would you consider me?
I consider all applicants. You're already on the list as you'd replied already :)
Hi there! I’m really familiar with perchance and a lot of the users, and I’d love to help moderate to keep it a better place, if given the chance. It’s fun to chat in the comments and such, but there have been a few safety issues in the past, and I’d like to help resolve those issues ^^
It’s about moderating here on Lemmy, nothing to do with the chat box on the generators of perchance.
