SD.net World is a role playing thread started by Zor, originally created as a RAR! thread in a similar nature to several other sucsessful RAR! threads involving giving each SD.net control over certain things of power eventually evolving into a formalized. In this thread, each established and not banned SD.net board member is given command of his/her own nation.
The "SDNet World" has undergone at least three different phases so far; the first phase being the raw RAR thread in Off-Topic; which was subsequently moved to the Games/STGODs forum and partially reborn in a more structured manner. After that storyline ended in a nuclear war, it went on a temporary hiatus and is currently undergoing it's third rebirth as a far more structured and rules-oriented STGOD.
