Russian image board users have created numerous [[worlds]] on both OWOT and [[Your World of Text|YWOT]]. Each of these pages are centered around a different topic, and presumably host different sub-communities, though all of them display similar styles of content. Russian worlds are some of the largest in the entire site, featuring ungodly amounts of conversations with the occasional [[art]] thrown in.

[[FP]] once described ~~them~~ as "''the largest unified community across [[Similar Sites to OWOT|these text sites]].''" They have existed since ~~2019 at the latest~~ and are still around in 2025, though their activities have always been isolated to their worlds.

[[FP]] once described these Russian users as "''the largest unified community across [[Similar Sites to OWOT|these text sites]].''" They have existed since 2018 and are still around in 2025, though their activities have always been isolated to their worlds.

== Worlds ==

All of these worlds are protected by FP using the [[Moderation#Time Machine|Time Machine]] feature. Their names are censored so that the communities within them can remain undisturbed.

<blockquote>"''it's funny that the largest worlds [on OWOT] are owned by women and about gay sex''"</blockquote>All of these worlds are protected by FP using the [[Moderation#Time Machine|Time Machine]] feature. Their names are censored so that the communities within them can remain undisturbed.

The contents of these worlds are mostly unknown due to them being written in Russian. Though according to an anonymous veteran user, much of the messages found within them are centered around erotic discussion of popular anime. (''"Gay hero anime" is'' My Hero Academia'', while "gay tennis anime" is probably'' [[wikipedia:Stars_Align|Stars Align]].) The anon speculates that users flock to these pages in order to escape Russian internet censorship, since YWOT and OWOT both render text in a format that cannot be read by spyware. They also believe that the following worlds are predominantly populated by female users, similar to the [[Manhatingzone]], which also has an affinity towards homoerotic content.

~~Most of the~~ following pages were created ~~around 2021~~, and are still active as of 2025.

The following pages were created from 2018 to 2020, and are still active as of 2025.

The world was created on April 27th, 2018 and has attained 165,333 views as of October 2025.<ref>Using the [[Chat Commands|/stats command]] in [[chat]].</ref> For contrast, [[/main]], one of the most popular worlds in the modern day, only has 53,652 views(''though to be fair it only became active in mid 2022.'')

According to FP, this is the largest OWOT world as of 2025. It is currently ~578 coordinates wide and 512 coordinates deep at its lowest point.

A world centered around (homoerotic content relating to) ''My Hero Academia''. It is ~290 coordinates wide and 50 coordinates tall.

The page was created on March 23rd, 2020 and has been viewed 72,049 times as of October 2025.[[File:Bnha.jpg|none|thumb|887x887px]]

== YWOT Worlds ==

These are much smaller than the OWOT worlds, with the largest one only being 100 coordinates wide and 50 coordinates deep.

This is likely because [[Your World of Text|YWOT]] doesn't have a teleportation system that would let users jump to the latest messages, so they tend to create a new world whenever the old one becomes too large to traverse. In OWOT, on the other hand, worlds are allowed to grow indefinitely without becoming unwieldy.<gallery mode="packed" heights="~~300~~">
