An '''anon''' (short for anonymous user) is a type of user with no account. They can edit public squares like normal, and [[chat]] like other users. An anon's screen name is their [[ID]] surrounded by brackets. They can use /nick, which will appear after the name, and the format will change to [*ID] nickname.
An '''anon''' (short for anonymous user) is any user who is not currently signed into a Uvias account. They aren't identified by a traditional username; instead, they are assigned a random numerical [[ID]], usually 4 digits long, which changes each session.
 
An anonymous user's default screen name is their ID, surrounded by brackets (e.g. <code>[1000]</code>). If they have a nickname set, its value is appended to the end, and an asterisk precedes their ID (e.g. <code>[*1000] sample nickname</code>).
 
== Permissions ==
Anonymous users have access to many of the basic privileges found in OWOT. They can:
 
* Visit and/or edit public worlds,
* Visit and/or edit member-only worlds with a membership key,
* View and send messages in chat,
* Set a nickname in chat,
* and send & receive [[Cmd|command broadcasts]].
 
They're also explicitly '''disallowed''' from any of the following:
 
* Claiming worlds,
* Visiting private worlds, or member-only worlds without a membership key,

An anon (short for anonymous user) is any user who is not currently signed into a Uvias account. They aren't identified by a traditional username; instead, they are assigned a random numerical ID, usually 4 digits long, which changes each session.

An anonymous user's default screen name is their ID, surrounded by brackets (e.g. [1000]). If they have a nickname set, its value is appended to the end, and an asterisk precedes their ID (e.g. [*1000] sample nickname).

They're also explicitly disallowed from any of the following:
