<blockquote>''OWOT has gone downhill. Slowly, one by one, it was filling with peasants from Textwall and Trollbox. With clones of Bzuki that burst in tears when you insult them. With mentally deranged "clicking yes"-obsessed users. It just doesn't feel the same as how I know OWOT. And for that reason, I will be (somewhat) quitting OWOT. I will quit being on the frontpage. I cannot stand any more of these fuckers. These ruiners. They ruined OWOT. I will still be making worlds and shit, but I'm DONE with the main page.'' | <blockquote>''OWOT has gone downhill.
