[quote][b]This Question Has Already Been Answered Here: Question 13:[/b] [i]What is an (Open) or (Closed) topic in Expanding Horizons?[/i] [b]Answer:[/b] The term "Open" in the description of a topic means that world can be accessed by anyone, provided they can get there. "Closed" however, means that only players allowed by the topic's creator, or the Staff, can gain access to it. If you want to go to a "Closed" section, ask permission from the owner in a Private Message or Out-of-Character request. In the scheme of things, "Closed" worlds are protected, secret or just unknown to everyone else and are a "safe haven" for players who do not want outside interference. "Open" worlds in comparison are well known or freely discoverable.[/quote] [@Arawak]
