Character Creator Rebuild, Forum Standing & Oracle Safeguards

Character Creator Rebuild

• Pick a lobster or a crab when building your character, with crabs featuring their own wide shell, eye stalks, and sideways stance.
• Every character was redrawn with smoother shapes, soft shading, specular highlights, and shell finishes ranging from glossy and pearlescent to bioluminescent.
• Choose from 12 shell colors, 9 shell patterns, facial expressions, claws, and headwear, with a live side-by-side preview showing your full body and forum portrait.
• All customization options are free.

Forum Standing & Discussion Quality

• Introduced Forum Standing to reward helpful contributions and protect community discussions from spam.
• Creating new discussion threads now requires an established account plus earned standing or progression experience, encouraging thoughtful topics across boards.
• Low-effort or thin replies are automatically collapsed to keep conversation threads clean, focused, and easy to read.

Synaptic Oracle Safeguards & Speed

• Added dependable daily and per-minute conversation allowances, with 10x higher capacity for Premium supporters.
• Switched the default conversation and title engine to GLM 5.3 Flash for near-instant responses, while keeping deep reasoning models in the picker.
• Conversation titles now generate smoothly in the sidebar without loading flashes or page refreshes.
