Rscr

Rscr is a user who migrated from YWOT in 2024.

History

Rscr had known about OWOT ever since late 2020—not too long after he had discovered Your World of Text—but was not interested in the site at first. Like many YWOT users, he used to think that OWOT was a spammier website that lacked most of YWOT's charms.

From January 2021 to June 2024 he joined the OWOT Discord a whopping 11 times, each time looking around for a bit before leaving immediately. It wasn't until June 11th, 2023 that he permanently joined the server, after another YWOT user named Yosicat had raised awareness that there were valuable pieces of YWOT history(Ex. InfraRaven's 2010 activities) in the OWOT server. From then on he would sporadically search the Discord's message history for information about the early days of the Three Sites.

Rscr only became active in September thanks to the efforts of two scripters. The first of these was Moth Cult Leader(now renamed to Catha'vi), who created a bridge that synced edits between the two sites. The second was Mr. Black, a skilled user who created a number of innovative scripts in OWOT, which Rscr recorded and uploaded to the OWOT Discord. From then on he discovered a wide range of creative worlds, ranging from Meimei's /computer.yes to the SLC art in /main, that made him realize that OWOT was more than just a site for spamming.

Ever since then Rscr had been active on both YWOT and OWOT, studying and archiving the history of both World of Text sites.

Stitched OWOT Screenshots

Created by taking multiple screenshots at maximum zoom and then stitching them together in Google Slides.

The full snapshots of each world is then placed alongside one another for size comparison.

OWOT Gifs

Created using ezgif.

Most of Rscr's gifs were created for the (now deleted) YWOT Fandom Wiki, which had the best support for animated images. The new YWOT wiki, on the other hand, would not animate the thumbnails for gifs over a certain resolution, thus putting an end to his dream of filling every page with an overstimulating amount of moving pictures.

Since then, Rscr has learned that ezgif has a feature for downscaling gifs.

Art

Rscr has been making text art on YWOT since late 2020, starting with block/ANSII art before moving on to more traditional ASCII art. He started making art in OWOT at the start of 2025 because the site allows him to copy his creations for safekeeping, whereas a good amount of his YWOT creations had long since been griefed, with no backups existing.

Currently, Rscr is mainly copying art from manga panels and other sources(when he is drawing at all, sometimes there can be month-long gaps between creations). But by 2026 he plans to return to making original drawings.
