The /warpserver command was removed by FP for being problematic in multiple ways. Not only was it used to spam YWOT, but Warpserver also posed a security risk, with the possibility of it teleporting users to IP grabbers and other harmful sites. | The /warpserver command was removed by FP for being problematic in multiple ways.

The Fastclient was a website, formerly hosted at <u>2s4.me/public/ywot/fastclient_v1_jul_25_2021.html</u>, that presumably functioned in a similar way to the Warpserver. It allowed users to access multiple OWOT features on YWOT—such as copying/pasting, faster scrolling, and wider zoom—but teleportation was not supported. | |||
The Fastclient was discreetly disseminated within the YWOT community throughout 2021 and 2022. Notably, it gave users the ability to back up their art and take larger screenshots. And while teleporting wasn't enabled, scrolling speed at max zoom was fast enough that you could reach 10,000 coordinates in under a minute, with many using it as a way to fast travel to distant art projects. | The Fastclient was discreetly disseminated within the YWOT community throughout 2021 and 2022.

But critically the Fastclient was also used to spam, and it was for this reason that FP eventually took down the website. [[AndreiXYZ]] stated on the [[OWOT Discord|Discord]] that the Fastclient was never supposed to be found by the public, though for unknown reasons it ended up being listed on DuckDuckGo. | But critically the Fastclient was also used to spam, and it was for this reason that FP eventually took down the website.

InfraRaven, the admin responsible for hosting OWOT and [[Our World of Pixels|OWOP]], was one of the most influential users in the history of YWOT. He was active since 2011 and had the closest ties with [[Andrew Badr]] out of any known user. In 2021 it was he who convinced Andrew to reopen the Mainpage, after it had been [https://yourworldoftext.wiki/Brazilpocalypse locked down to prevent racism spam]. | |||
InfraRaven has worked on a number of projects throughout his long history on the site. In 2013 he contributed to an in-site [https://yourworldoftext.wiki/YWOT_Wiki_by_Randomguy YWOT Wiki], and that same year he also created the soundtrack for a YWOT snake game named [https://yourworldoftext.wiki/YWOT_Games#Grubber Grubber]. In addition, InfraRaven was known to have fought numerous spammers, including the DeathCloud faction and the infamous Lol("''Hitler''")007, who spammed userpages using scripts stolen from InfraRaven hiimself.<ref>https://github.com/ywothistory/ywothistory.github.io/blob/master/_posts/2012-12-30-modernages.markdown</ref> | |||
InfraRaven, along with other veterans like [[JerryStarField]], [[Dzeni]], [[Sammich]], [[Mr.Guy]], [[Kkb]] and [[Poopman]], made up the "inner circle" of YWOT during the early 2010s. At one point they even created a hidden society named YWOTI(''YWOT Illuminati'') that operated on a private subworld. | |||

FP came to the site slightly later than most of the other admins, around 2015, but since then he had gained a reputation for archiving the site's Mainpage. | |||
