# Writing Prompts
We used r/WritingPrompts and r/DirtyWritingPrompts to do KTO against [https://huggingface.co/datasets/Gryphe/Opus-WritingPrompts] to remove slop.
Optimally Use ChatML, no system message, no nothing. And always start with Write a story using this writing prompt: For example:
Write a story using this writing prompt: As a prank a witch detached your cock and suctioned it to the shower in the girl's dorm. Neither of you expected how frequently it was going to be used, nor knew that it couldn't get soft again!
Apparently RP has also become a bit less sloppy by coincidence.
We are looking into opening the datasets up, I'm a bit tired atm, you can also just go get this torrent of the entire reddit, select only the subreddits you want and DIY [https://academictorrents.com/details/56aa49f9653ba545f48df2e33679f014d2829c10]
(for context - this model was a test run, on a small dataset. It will be scaled up later.)
