== Unsanitized Responses ==

Released on December 20th, 2024.

Some interesting responses are listed below.<blockquote>"''i was never really active on this site unfortunately so i don't have experience on it like others in the server do. it's a very interesting concept and i'm glad i found it from ywot a gazillion years ago.''

''it's really interesting to see the difference in servers between owop and owot, owop has way more people in it but is dead as fuck. i blame this on admin neglect and horrendous moderation. this horrendous moderation in question being entirely the fault of a person named 'cygnus'. he is probably a pedophile if i'm being honest and is never going to be removed as a moderator because he's too active to be removed, which is right, unfortunately, the unemployed loser has nothing else to do than stop people from saying nigeria on owop, piece of shit. should pornographic material be allowed on a site that kids dwell on? the answer is easily no but can you believe that owop actually had a poll regarding that? like are you fucking serious. anyways, sorry for getting kind of off topic,''

''my point is that though many might think owot is like a bad terrible degenerate site or something but it has done a good job of keeping scum like that out of it (or at least out of more powerful positions) and somehow has kept the community decently alive. it's surprising to me when i go on the server sometimes and people are still talking cause i don't expect that especially given the state of the game.''"

'''- Anonymous [[Our World of Pixels|OWOP]] User'''</blockquote><blockquote>"''that i didn't spread laser like and bully [[Lime.owot|lime]]''

''god I want to take it all back''

''I never wanted to become this''

''I'm a fucking loser bro''

''Im just so sorry''

''so so so so sorry''"

'''- [[Placeholder|p_h]]'''</blockquote><blockquote>"''it's probably already obvious who I am, I just wanted to say that I never wanted to leave owot, I wanted to continue making art and chatting with other people like guest, but I guess I'm just too haunted by my past. despite what you may have heard I'm not a creep or greifer, I just want to create stuff and talk with other nice people. unfortunately I don't know what to do to make that happen, I guess it's just going to have to wait for now.''

''p.s I'm sorry everyone, I promise not to lie again.''"

'''- former impersonator, [[Placeholder|place_holdrr]]'''</blockquote><blockquote>"''If OWOT wasn't anonymous, there would be way less spammers and griefers. Even then, someone eventually will find a way to remain anonymous. Spam is just a fundamental part of OWOT and will never go away.''"</blockquote><blockquote>"''Hey CCL,''

''I don't know if I submitted this form earlier,''

''but I thought I'd let you know ahead of time that I don't feel like returning to OWOT anymore because of the overwhelming toxicity, nazism, immaturity, sectionalism, racism, etc.''

''It's not a healthy place for me to be. Concluding this journey, If I don't see you again, then I will miss you and I wish you the best. I remember you saying you joined Discord, so if you would like, mine is [removed].''

''Thanks for everything,''

''Pear (🍐)''"</blockquote><blockquote>"''you seem to be a pretty level-headed person, active on the site even, which is honestly quite rare for an OWOT user. i just ask of you not to spend too much time in global chat or on PinkiePie's chat site (if you even know what it is). both of these could genuinely worsen your mental health. i love to see OWOT getting new actually decent people, because that's after all a plus to the community's average wellbeing, even if not by much. i have seen this community decline a lot.''"</blockquote><blockquote>"''Ahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!''"</blockquote><blockquote>"''this site DESPERATELY needs a set of actual guidelines and moderation, and possibly an influx of new users from some big-ish youtuber whose fanbase is not a bunch of 12 year olds. we can't keep this hands-off moderation and this community's internet culture from 15 years ago otherwise we'll end up getting seen as "just another 4chan-esque site" by other normal people and it may end up getting reports to be taken down by the government or something like every other week''"</blockquote><blockquote>"''nice survey i hadn't seen somebody do this in owot before. don't talk with the people that didn't choose cats.''"</blockquote>

== Trivia ==

* The survey was advertised on a world named [https://ourworldoftext.com/takeasurvey /takeasurvey], though [[d9eoead]] has said that this was created by someone impersonating Crazy Cat Lady rather than CCL herself.

* The majority of users reported that they found OWOT from [[Your World of Text]]. Six users answered [[Our World of Pixels]], three answered [[TextWall]], and two answered [[Trollbox]]. A few people found OWOT from the Steam profiles of other users, while others simply responded "from social media" or "from a friend." A couple of unique responses were [https://infinitehomepage.com/ infinitehomepage.com], [[Similar Sites to OWOT#Edit the Text|Edit the Text]], [https://fmhy.net/ fmhy.net], and "''I jerked off, and the cum on the ground spelled out 'owot.me'.''"
