Towns
There are a number of main towns in Oldtown, which hold most of the players. Towns are generally begun by a singular player, who finds a good piece of land (usually near a warp) and invites other players to come live there. Towns have been known to house as many as 20 players on Oldtown, and are very advantageous from a social standpoint. It also makes activites very easy to perform, as they can simply be posted in a townsquare. To qualify as a town, there must be three or more houses clustered in a certain area, with the intention of making a town by the owners.

Rivalries
There is the occasional rivalry between players on Oldtown.These tend to be rather petty, and no big deal; in fact, they can be rather fun to watch. If you notice a player rivalry, be sure not to take sides, and try to stop anything getting out of hand.

Drama
Oldtown, at times, can be pretty dramatic. This usually happens when multiple popular players have a conflict, and their friends take sides. Such drama isn't at all common, but it has been known to happen in the past. As in any rivalry, be sure not to take sides, and it will eventually die down. Other kinds of drama are spam, which can be stopped by staff, and relationship drama; it is not advised to take part in an online relationship, in order to prevent dramatic outbursts.

Activites
Sometimes, online members of the community will come together and take part in activities. This can range anywhere from simply taking pictures,  to a large hunger games match, or creative activites (making a "sparta pit", having a "secret santa" game, etc). Activites are fun to take part in, take any opprotunity to join in on them you get!
