Hai. I’m one of those guys who joined PW a few years back, had some fun for a month or two, then stopped.
There was this awesome pastime back in 2019 or 2020 that some world creators forgot to place locks on their spawns, or just not have WLs, then players flooded in and placed their own locks as close to spawn as they could, either trap new players, pimp out their little space… you got to know your fellow players, each with our own spot of territory. Like anarchic border politics. You could actually pay players for entry out of a tight spot if you were in the right spot. I got a few locks from richies I trapped once.
I couldn’t find any worlds this today… at least no active ones. They used to be really cool, and there was always at least one every few days. I was in around 4 or 5 lock wars.
There are a few mentions of it in the forums and a few chats in the Discord, but no photos or video.
According to t/7537/3 this was a thing on Growtopia as well. And luckily I found a video of a Growtopia Lock War… but still nothing on PW. Which sucks, because lock wars were so fun D=
If anyone has photos/videos of a PW lock war, or knows where to find active lockwars nowadays, reply now dude!
