The wiki is very, very out of date and it's something that's undergoing an overhaul (when Dan can get time to do so). Player-owned places are fairly straightforward to learn once you're in there, but the drag-and-drop is a re

Improbable island used to have more or less only one rule, outside of "underage shit will get you reported to your ISP", and that was "don't be a dick". It worked well, on the surface, but as the CoC says, there we

It has player-owned places that are done with a fairly clunky interface, but the focus is far more on the writing that you put into your place. It's a callback to the MUDs of old, to my understanding. I think the record for a group-wri
