Writables[]
A Writable is an Item that you can write on. There are currently three four in the game: Boards, Books, Name Tag, and Code Blocks.
Board[]
The Board, with the special arrow symbol on it (type -> on board)
The Board is a special transparent Block that can be used to store text. Boards can convert the symbols -> and <- into these symbols: → and ← as seen on the right, but they're patched due to new font settings. The text has three sizes: small, medium and large. This helps to convey messages differently, as if you want to warn about something or title something, you can use the large size, or if you are writing a long username or a short paragraph about something, you would use the small size. If your word is too long the text will go to the next row, even if the word is not complete.
Appearance[]
Boards appear as a thin, rectangular prism with the Maple Wood Planks texture on it.

Crafting recipe (via Workbench)[]
| Ingredients | Output |
|---|---|
| 1 Wood Plank | 1 Board |
Usage[]
You write on a Board by pressing [E] or right-clicking while aiming at it. A new UI appears that allows you to type choose from the three text sizes. Click on the side of the Board to publish what you wrote. It is possible to put emojis on Boards.
| Size | Available rows | Available signs per row |
|---|---|---|
| Small | 7 | 16 |

| Large | 3 | 7 |
'Press to __' Boards[]
Owner-only Boards[]
If you are the owner of an Open World, you can create special Boards that activate when you [Right-Click] or press [E]. There are nine types of boards: 'press to get' Boards, 'press to lobby' Boards, 'press to tp' Boards, 'press to buy' Boards, 'press to mode' Boards, 'press to damage' Boards, 'press to execute' Boards, 'press to message' Boards and 'press to sell' Boards. If you have multiple Special Boards next to each other, they will all activate, unless one fails to activate ( for "press to buy/sell", not having enough items to buy/sell ) then the chain will activate up to that sign but not past. You can edit 'Press to __' Boards by Right Clicking/Pressing "E".
'Press to get' Board[]
A press to get Board behaves similarly to command Blocks from Minecraft with the /give command. It gives a certain amount of a certain type of Items to the player who presses it. The Items are generated by the game. To create one, you need to type these on the Board:
press to get
[Number of Items] [Item]
If you do not have enough room on one line, such as '999 Moonstone Orb', you can put the 'Moonstone Orb' bit on a new line, and it would still work. When typing a specific Item name, be sure to use the correct name, or the Board won't execute the command (e.g. Type 'Block of Diamond' instead of "diamond block"). Never use the plural form of the item name.
The item name mustn't be a specified number, you can also write for example 1-10 Dirt to give out a random count of items.
'Press to lobby' Board[]
A press to lobby Board teleports you to the specified lobby. To create one, you need to type these on the Board:
press to lobby
[LobbyName (e.g. thewikiserver)]
This only works in the Worlds gamemode because there is no owner of the public lobbies. (Note that the "press to" parts are not caps-sensitive)
'Press to tp' Board[]
A press to tp Board teleports you to the specified coordinates. To create one, you need to type these on the Board:
press to tp
[X-Y-Z coordinates (e.g. 100 0 100)]
'Press to buy' Boards[]
A press to buy Board allows
to buy a certain thing for a certain price. The Items are generated by the game. To create one, you need to type the following on the Board:
press to buy
[number of Items (e.g. 999)] [item (e.g. Diamond)]
costs
[number of Items to buy (e.g. 999)] [item to buy (e.g. Grass Block) or nothing, everything]
'Press to sell' Boards[]
A press to sell Board allows users to sell a certain thing for a certain price. To create one, you need to type the following on the Board:
press to sell
[number of Items (e.g. 999)] [item (e.g. Diamond)]
for
[number of Items to buy (e.g. 999)] [item to buy (e.g. Grass Block)]

- In a Greenville glitch, you can use Press to get Board to get items that are banned in Greenville (e.g. Fireball, Iceball, Moonstone Explosive), which are very useful as they can be used to break blocks that are almost impossible to find (e.g. Emerald Block, Lapis Block, Invisible Solid).
- You used not be able to edit a 'Press to __' board after making it, so you would have to destroy it to edit it once again.

Book Trivia[]
- This was added along with the Name Tag.

The UI after right clicking while holding a Name Tag
Usage[]
- Right click while holding the Name Tag in your hand. This will send you to an UI that looks somewhat like a Board.
- Write the name you want the Name Tag to rename an Item Into.
- Click "finish". The renamed Tag will be in your hand, called "Rename to: [Item name]."
- In your Inventory, grab it with your mouse and click with it on the Item you want to rename.
- Once dropped on the Item, the name tag will disappear, and the Item is renamed.
- You cannot rename currently equipped armor.
Name Tag Trivia[]
- The Name Tag was added along with the Book.
- The Name Tag was created by Stardue.
- Unlike before, now if you give a renamed Item to a different player, the rename will still be there.
- If you die with a renamed Item in your Inventory, the rename will be still there.
- The censoring system still exists, so you cannot name anything inappropriate.
- Unlike in Minecraft, you can name an Item "Name Tag".
- You are able to press enter to make a new row in name tags, making the Item name can go upwards.
- The longest discovered Item name is something like this: ‘**************************$&!’, with a total of 29 characters. You can do this by naming it: "fu fu fu fu fu …" until you run out of space. This will trick the swear system into thinking it is the f word, so it is phrased into *****. “Fu” is 2 characters long, while ***** is 5 characters long. Meaning it will get a 3 extra character bonus, breaking the system.
- If you place a Name Tag inside a chest and break the chest, the Name Tag will be empty.
- If you place a renamed item into a chest and break the chest, the item name will change back to its default name.
