Hello there - this can happen if you are tying to create a world with the same name under the same account or in an another account that used to have the same username.   Another possible issue is using special characters on the name or description of the world     Note: Full disclosure: I am putting this account under investigation due to the fact that it has a suspicious number of articles under other worlds that MAY be a breach of the terms of service

Thank you for responding.   "Note: Full disclosure: I am putting this account under investigation due to the fact that it has a suspicious number of articles under other worlds that MAY be a breach of the terms of service"   Do you mean to say that my account may be compromised and has spammed other worlds?   Also, the guidelines don't seem to fix the issue as I've tried to use lots of different names to avoid conflicts and still get a 404. Is there a maximum limit of worlds that I may be hitting?

I am experiencing this issue too and I have no other worlds created at this moment. I tried making a D&D 5e campaign and it keeps 404-ing me as well

I am getting the same thing, but with D&D 5e. Tried the steps above, as well as resetting my password. I have tried on both Firefox and Safari. I likewise have not logged into WorldAnvil for a while, but according to my account info, my subscription is current.

I am having the same issue. I've tried all the trouble shooting steps, used multiple browsers, and tried creating a world with no system and still get the 404 error.

I also cannot create new worlds. I'm trying to create my first one and I keep getting 404 error coded.   (Thank you! my issue has been fixed!)

Happening here also, unable to create my first world.

Please come on our discord and talk to me "Dimitris" so we can resolve this.   If not can you please be more specific on how are you are trying to create a world and do you see when you do. A step by step description would help us reproduce it so we can fix it for you.

We have deployed a fix for this issue and you should now be able to create a world without getting a 404 page! Please try again and let us know here if it's been resolved for you. If not, any specific information in your proccess would be very helpful.
