I Stumbled Upon #TORN ("the biggest text-based RPG online" @tornrpg @torncity4), but I Think I Want to Know the Backstory First | #WearAndTear #TornBetweenTheTwo

An ad online led me to the game's signup form (you can access through 'the bold hyperlink(s)' below); but first I want to teach you about those words. And I find you understand words better if you see 'the words at their base' (then going on to look at the words at those words' bases, then the words at those words' bases, etc.-etc. ad infinitum into their Foundation)

The word “TORN (if not an acronym, but rather a form of the word #Tear #Tearing #Tears)” is built on ancient words that mean "to |Split, |Flay, |Peel."

A search-or-two for information on it shows me ...
And that tells me all I need to know before I start; but I could've just looked at 'the text the game gives on its signup screen' 🤦🏼‍♂️:
