Placeholder
Placeholder, also known as place_holdrr or p_h, is a proficient SLC artist who tarnished his reputation in 2023. He was exposed for having 3 alts, and for making and spreading NSFW art of lime.owot. Placeholder has since expressed guilt over his past actions and continues to make art on and off, though he is still distrusted by much of the community. Notably, however, lime has largely forgiven him and acknowledges that he's become a better person.
His worlds include /place_holdrr, where he showcases his art and OCs, and /laserdude, which also has a section for scripts.
Placeholder's text color is #ef3eff
while his former alt, Laserdude, used
#ff0000 .
Alts
Boo
Boo was supposedly a girl who makes ASCII art, known for roleplaying as a ghost.
Placeholder has stated he never was Boo but one day he realized she disappeared and started impersonating her.
As Boo, Placeholder created an OWOT radio named Boo's Beats, which acted as a precursor to lime.radio.
Bluefire
Not known is much about Bluefire.
Inked
Inked was an artist with a bold black color, This was the last known alt placeholder made.
An anonymous user by the name of "CatBox22x" starting posting a series of similarities shared between them.
Including: artstyle, both being fans of half life, having the same age and others.
Many people disagreed with this theory, but then eventually Placeholder admitted it.
Laserdude/Burner
Laserdude, also known as Burner, was supposedly a 14 year old ASCII art maker who would frequently indulge in roleplaying on the canvas and making comics.
Placeholder said in 2025 that Laserlime was created with the expressed purpose of ruining Laserdude's reputation, so that he would no longer be pressured to maintain the persona within the community.
Laserlime
Laserlime was a NSFW comic featuring lime and Placeholder's stick figure OCs. It was repeatedly spammed at Spawn in late 2023 and early 2024.
Placeholder later said in 2025 that the Laserlime drama was started as a way to forcibly retire the Laserdude persona, since he didn't feel like juggling alts on Discord and OWOT.

Apology
From Crazy Cat Lady's 2024 OWOT survey.
Q: If you could change anything here, what would it be? "that i didn't spread laser like and bully 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" - p_h
Q: If you have any final thoughts to share, write them below! "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, place_holdrr
Art
Placeholder specializes in drawing guns and other weapons. He has also created a variety of infrastructure for lime.owot's radio, with lime being one of the only people who's still friends with him after all his controversies.
He took on a lower profile after the Laserlime drama, and presumably the site for a significant amount of time. But in September 2025 he made a formal return to making art on the Mainpage.
/place_holdrr holds an incomplete archive of his drawings.
