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 | [[FP]] once described these Russian users 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. | ||

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.

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. | The contents of these worlds are mostly unknown due to them being written in Russian.
