-Back when the Island started in 2008, there was no Banter. It was back in this primordial soup of a game that the slang "to wall", meaning "to leave the Island for a brief period"((similar to "AFK" or "BRB")), was formed. It came from "breaking the 4th wall" by abruptly having to end or pause a scene without writing oneself out in some way. There may have been Distractions((Fun fact: at one point, CMJ declared in chat that Distractions were carried from one character to another by carrier pigeon)) at this time((citation needed)), and possibly The Place Behind the Fourth Wall. This place, also known as Location 4 (officially), Loc4, or L4, was just a regular room, but with text at the top indicating that the text in the room was OOC. Much like the [[places:outpost:building:commonground:Common Ground]], it was available from every [[places:Outpost]]. +Back when the Island started in 2008, there was no Banter.
