We’re running a small Season 0 meme contest as a fun test — and yes, this is intentionally low-pressure.
Important: Your meme does not have to promote Storychat.
In fact, we love memes that:
- Roast Storychat’s flaws (seriously)
- Point out common AI chat app pain (yes, including Character.AI)
- Capture those “why is the bot doing that?” moments
TL;DR (10-second version)
- Post a meme on r/storychat
- Use the “Meme Contest” flair
- Submit your post link via Google Form
- Top 10 by upvotes win 1 Month Gold each
- Team + mods judge Top 10 → pick 1st–3rd for gift cards
✅ Submit your meme here:
How to Enter (Super Easy)

Prizes
- Top 10 (by upvotes): 1 Month Gold Plan (each)
- 1st: $50 gift card

How Winners Are Chosen
- At the deadline, we’ll select the Top 10 posts with the most upvotes
- Then the team + moderators will judge those Top 10 and select 1st–3rd
- One Top 10 spot per person: your single most-upvoted post counts
- Vote manipulation / abuse may result in disqualification
Bonus Points (Yes, This Matters)
Memes that include real Storychat screenshots or features get bonus points.
Examples:
- Chat screen moments (voice consistency, continuity, “no speaking for me” wins)
- Character definition / persona setup
- Feed / story / discovery vibe
- UI moments that are funny or surprisingly good
Meme Examples (You Can Copy These Ideas)
Common AI chat app pain
- “Character setting: cold & distant” → (3 messages later) “I love you 🥺”
- “Stop speaking for me…” → AI starts writing my lines too
- “This convo is amazing” → memory wipes → character becomes a stranger
Storychat ‘oops’ moments
- “Just testing for 3 minutes…” → (10 minutes later) created 5 characters
- “Sent a share link as a joke…” → my friend actually got hooked
- “I’ll only read one story…” → (1 hour later) deep in the feed
Why This Contest Is Actually a Smart Move (Not Just a Giveaway)
We’re calling it Season 0 for a reason.
This is a lightweight test to learn what the community wants, what memes resonate, and what “AI chat pain” people actually relate to most right now — without forcing marketing.
That’s also why this contest is great if you’re a Character.AI user (or refugee):
- You can joke about real pain points freely
- You can create content without being “a creator”
- You can discover other people who like the same style of humor and roleplay
Storychat vs Character.AI (For People Who Want a Better “Home”)
Many people come to Storychat for one simple reason:
They don’t just want chat. They want a place where characters and stories can actually live long-term.
Comparison Table + Ratings (2026)
Ratings are based on what long-form roleplay/story users typically care about: continuity, control, discovery, and creator-friendly loops.
| Category | Character.AI | Storychat | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|---|
| Long-run story continuity | ★★★☆☆ | ★★★★★ | If your character resets emotionally, your story dies. |
| Voice consistency (stays in-character) | ★★★☆☆ | ★★★★★ | The biggest killer is “assistant drift” and generic replies. |
| Discovery (finding good characters fast) | ★★★☆☆ | ★★★★★ | Feeds + exploration loops reduce the “search fatigue.” |
| Creator / sharing loop | ★★★☆☆ | ★★★★★ | Chat → story → share → new readers is a real ecosystem. |
| Visual + story-friendly tools | ★★★☆☆ | ★★★★☆ | When text isn’t enough, visuals make scenes land harder. |
Want to Try Storychat Without Overthinking It?
If you’re here because you’re tired of AI chat app pain, do this instead of debating:

- See if the voice stays consistent and the story keeps moving
