It was/is very big in SL, but it never really took off in IWZ. I'm not into GOR lifestyle but was very curious about it. In SL the sim next to mine was pure GOR and peaked my interest.
The sim was owned by House of Axe (Bun Shik), and my sim was Moolbora. I would sometimes chill there and listen to someone reading books on GOR on the radio stream live.
We really need RP to take off in IWZ, I feel that it will be the crowd puller. I'm probably getting a bit sentimental now or probably just mental.

Not a 'role player' myself, but yes. That is another piece of the pie that needs to be looked at. I know there is a very big audience for it.

I have never been big on RP of any sort. I just don't have the patience, the whole backstory thing- No in IW when Steely and I would go exploring we would make a point of dressing to fit in. We never joined any RP stuff but would loosely RP with the present folks if it was a casual setting- you know like curtsy to the Lords and Ladies etc and maybe play a bit with the language in medieval settings. If in a fae place would talk as if magic and magical beings are perfectly real.
I am an old time Gor person- but not ever in VW's. Before I found SL, I spent about 8 years in a Gorean community online. It was not an RP place- was more of a philosophical discussion setting. And I have read the books so yeah, I think I had it down. In SL a couple times I visited a few places. some were such ridiculously silly that they made me laugh. Zero relation to the novels - just a bunch of naked slave girls fawning all over.
Then here in IW, I visited Venna. When they say they are by-the-book, believe them. It is one thing to read the novels and quite another thing to see things in front of you. Cured me of any last remnant of Gor glamour I may have held. But the place is beautiful and the people are friendly. They do supply an OOC tag and they will make you welcome.

Nah! Just hasn't set InWorldz ablaze. Did think it would have a huge audience in IWZ but never materialised. I know in SL it was pretty big.
