Threads can be divided into a few categories. IC Posts are anything where you are required to write in-character, and may be Solo threads, Interaction threads, or One-Post threads. OOC Posts are Out-of-Character, such as posting in the Development forum.
Solo threads are ongoing where you are the only player; if you thread two of your own characters together with no other players, it is still effectively a Solo thread. Solo threads are easiest when modded. Interaction threads involve two or more players, and may or may not be modded. One-Post threads include occasional events where a Staff member posts an intro post and players only reply once to take part.
With those distinctions, the types of threads are as follows; more details on each can be found in the lower sections.

With those distinctions, the types of threads are as follows; more details on each can be found in the lower sections.
- Pure Interaction: The most classic roleplay experience. Just two or more members writing their characters talking and doing stuff together.
- Fully Solo: These non-modded threads can be one-shots or ongoing, with a single character or multiple owned by the same player, and are typically done for character exploration and/or history building.
- Quests: Quests are a special type of thread in which almost anything can happen. You define your objectives and what obstacles you will have to overcome in a Quest Application, as well as a Reward earned upon completion. If Staff approves of the details, you play out the thread, and assuming you can meet all your objectives you will receive your chosen reward at the end. These can be used to get specific items, money, knowledge, etc. They can be Solo or Interaction.
- Mod Events: Mods can be summoned to introduce random events into any thread if the player desires. However, notably, in Contested Areas, Mod Events always have a chance of happening, even when not requested!
- Site Events: Occasionally, special events come up. These might be grand multi-thread RP endeavors or simple contests you One-Post to enter ICly. It varies from one event to the next, so always be sure to read up on events when they pop up.
