So to start playing OT you first have to make a thread. This is done by [ DATA EXPUNGED ] and requires the player to press the post button. Then after some time you get a reply on your thread. You have to appropriately press the correct buttons on your keyboard and hit the reply button back. For example if some posts [ REDACTED ] then you have a few options such as [ CENSORED BY REQUEST ], [ CONTAINS SENSITIVE INFO ], or [ REQUIRES LEVEL 9 CLEARANCE TO VIEW ]. Typically you gain score that way but there are other methods which are outside the scope of this simple explanation. Good luck!
