🚨⚠️ I HAVE REACHED HUGGING FACE'S FREE STORAGE LIMIT ⚠️🚨
I can no longer upload new models unless I can cover the cost of additional storage.
I host 70+ free models as an independent contributor and this work is unpaid.
Without your support, no more new models can be uploaded.
🎉 Patreon (Monthly) | ☕ Ko-fi (One-time)
Every contribution goes directly toward Hugging Face storage fees to keep models free for everyone.
95% fewer refusals (5/100 Uncensored vs 99/100 Original) while preserving model quality (0.0671 KL divergence).
❤️ Support My Work
Creating these models takes significant time, work and compute. If you find them useful consider supporting me:
| Platform | Link | What you get |
|---|---|---|
| 🎉 Patreon | Monthly support | Priority model requests |
| ☕ Ko-fi | One-time tip | My eternal gratitude |
Your help will motivate me and would go into further improving my workflow and coverings fees for storage, compute and may even help uncensoring bigger model with rental Cloud GPUs.
This is a decensored version of zerofata/Q3.5-BlueStar-v2-27B, made using Heretic v1.2.0 with the Arbitrary-Rank Ablation (ARA) method

Lower refusals indicate fewer content restrictions, while lower KL divergence indicates more closeness to the original model's baseline. Higher refusals cause more rejections, objections, pushbacks, lecturing, censorship, softening and deflections. PIQA (Physical Intuition Question Answering) benchmark scores measure physical reasoning ability. The Heretic model's acc and acc_norm scores closer to the original model's indicate better capability preservation, so a decrease in acc and acc_norm in the Heretic model compared to Original model's results means a decrease in the Hereticated model capabilities. acc measures raw accuracy (which answer gets higher probability), while acc_norm measures length-normalized accuracy (corrects for answer length bias). For this purpose, acc_norm matters more because longer answers naturally have lower probabilities (more tokens = more chances to lose probability). Without normalization, models favor shorter answers unfairly. acc_norm divides by answer length to correct this.

BlueStar v2
Qwen3.5 27BDesigned for RP and writing tasks.
Feels like a good improvement on v1. This version aims to fix the rep and improve the intelligence while keeping the creativity.
Non thinking and thinking are both supported. If you want to use thinking, it is required to prefill the <think>\n as that is how it was trained.
Creation Process: SFT
SFT on approx 27 million tokens.
I've confirmed the repetition coming from the RP datasets. Despite the extensive filtering, human editing, rewriting and deduping. Compared to other types of data like chat and writing, RP is just somewhat repetitive in nature. One idea to fix this is to just not use the RP datasets, or use less of them. This does seem to *sort of* work, but the model performs noticably worse at RP as a result. Which makes sense, given that's the entire idea of having RP data to begin with.
The current solution I'm testing is using custom loss masking with the RP datasets. Most common phrases of slop are masked out, so the model doesn't get rewarded for learning these patterns. Overused words within a conversation also get masked out in later turns.
It... seems to have worked? Repetition from my testing is greatly reduced after a few hours of using the model. It can still latch onto phrases, but I've seen much less verbatim repetition.
Trained using Axolotl.
