added GV. someone should fill in the question marks and fix the note links.
Wurm has two types of servers, home and wild. Home servers are the home of a specific kingdom, while wild servers are battlegrounds existing between home servers. Currently there is a Jenn-Kellon home server ([[Jenn002]]), a Mol-Rehan home server ([[Molr001]]) and a wild server ([[Wild001]]). There is also a login server, [[Jenn001]].
All servers are 16,384m x 16,384m, and share the same decay rate. It is impossible to chat across servers boundriesboundaries, even with fellow villagers or friends.
== Major differences ==

* <sup>[1]</sup> E.g. on the Jenn-Kellon server, only Jenn-Kellon citizens are allowed. On the Mol-Rehan server, only Mol-Rehan citizens are allowed.
* <sup>[2]</sup> This allows people to dispense their own justice instead.
* <sup>[3]</sup> At the moment, basic accounts can play on Jenn-Kellon Home but cannot be created there.
* <sup>[4]</sup> Premium can be purchased but does not take effect until the player enters a different server.
<blockquote>"I see no reason to apply the cap to anything other than [[ore]]. However, we might add some resources that are only available on wild servers, and some that are only available on home server in the future. Actually, some might even be unique to a single server, to encourage trading." -- [[User:Notch|Notch]]</blockquote>
There are no resource limits on wild servers. Some monsters (notably [[huge spider]]s) are stronger, and the terrain is rougher.
=== Golden Valley server details ===
The Golden Valley server is where all new accounts are created. Both [[Jenn-Kellon]] and [[Mol-Rehan]] can exist on the server but there is no PvP. There is no limit to the number of times an account can be converted on this server.
Premium can be purchased on GV. It does not have any effect until the player is on a different server. There is a portal to both home servers which can only be entered with a premium account. They are one-way portals.
Because premium has no effect on this server most items are effectively capped at around 20 [[QL]].
