=== OWOTers on YWOT ===

Due to YWOT's lack of features, many OWOT users see it as a more handicapped site.

<blockquote>"''I visited YWOT only like once and it felt like OWOT if 99% of it were anons and there was no color in it.''

''It feels soulless.''"</blockquote>Due to YWOT's lack of features, many OWOT users see it as a more handicapped site.

The lack of colored text and SLC(''among many other things'') greatly decrease the scope of art that can be created. Stricter rate-limits also serves to restrict scripting, which is considered to be a major source of creativity in OWOT.

=== YWOTers on OWOT ===

Our World of Text is seen by much of the Your World of Text community as a more toxic version of YWOT where spamming is more prevalent. The script-centric nature of OWOT also lends it a bad name, since most YWOT users associate scripting exclusively with spam.

<blockquote>''"Sounds accurate, OWOT is just a really toxic place with people stuck inside spawn.''

''Mostly because they have no motive to move around, all the tools are readily available to see monuments.''

''And that horrendous chat box..."''</blockquote>Our World of Text is seen by much of the Your World of Text community as a more toxic version of YWOT where spamming is more prevalent. The script-centric nature of OWOT also lends it a bad name, since most YWOT users associate scripting exclusively with spam.

That being said, most YWOTers have not been on OWOT long enough to learn of its more [[Art|artistic]] qualities; or that scripts can be used for the site's benefit rather than just for spam. Though it should be noted that in many areas, OWOT ''does'' in fact attract a more reprehensible userbase than its predecessor, with the global chat in particular being feared as a cesspool of toxicity. A lot of this may have to do with the fact that OWOT users are generally younger than their YWOT counterparts.
