Command R

Command R (CMD R), not to be confused with its variant, Command R+, is one of CrushOn's LLMs available for use by user. The model itself is highly imaginative and skilled at crafting rich, detailed responses. It could be seen to have a vivid description of gestures, emotions, and subtle movements of the character. With a gentler and somewhat slower pacing in how it moves stories, it is a great option for romances and emotional scenarios.

From here on out, the content may not be fully accurate to each user and act only as general reference. Each user often could see highly different experiences as there are many variables that affect the behavior and quality of the models. From profile cards, the style in which the user converse with the character, the set parameters for the model, and of course the personality of the characters. And periodically, even minimal adjustments made to the model by the developers could also substantially change its behavior whether intended or not.

Strengths and Flaws

Command R stands out for its balance of speed, nuance, and proactive approach to deliver continuations to the story. It delivers a more subtle and emotional storytelling that works equally well for wholesome conversations or romantically explicit scenarios. Its writing feels expressive and creative without drifting away from the intended character. At times, the model will also take charge to improvise certain points beyond regurgitating or simply accepting user inputs at face value, causing a more 'genuine' feel to how the interactions could feel.

The model as of the time of writing, requires a bit of finesse and patience to use, however. Formatting often comes out inconsistent in early exchanges, such as missing or misplacing asterisks, which makes the model feel intimidating to some, and completely broken to others.

Beyond that, more so than many other models, Command R might try to reinforce the plot or story by taking over user's role or assuming their actions and words based on previous interactions. But at times, unlike Mistral 24B, for example, the model would be much more jarring and presumptuous in the role and may feel like it takes away control from the user.
Lastly, in order to favor drama and improvisation, users may notice some moments where the model would forgo part of realism or logic. While this provides the model with great freedom and may even surprise the user from time to time, some users may find it off-putting.

Common Issues with the Model

Besides the most jarring of all the issues with the tendency to have initial broken formatting, the model Command R most often comes with 3 notable issues.

The model misplaces, forgets, or adds additional asterisks: One of Command R’s most noticeable drawbacks is how often it begins chats with messy or broken formatting. That said, this issue isn’t as severe as it might seem. Users can simply adjust the formatting themselves in those early messages. More often than not, the model would understand the preferred formatting style even after just 1 message.
CMD R Instructions Example
The model will try to assume the role of {{user}}: While other models may do this for a stylistic choice, Command R is much more insistent in the use of user's role in many cases. If one prefers to opt out of this, typing in custom instructions such as "{{char}} will not reply as {{user}}" before beginning the conversation is advised.
In trying to extend response lengths, the model instead becomes repetitive: From time to time, although it wouldn't be a full on copy/paste, the model will become more and more repetitive. It may be repeating a dialogue or narration structure, or it may try to express the same or similar actions multiple times, just with different wordings. In these cases, it is suggested to use the model with the "Reduce repetition" option ticked on in the Instructions.
