The General Information of your World hosting are centralized in an interface allowing to consult them easily.
The interface also allows you to adjust the global pool of resources by ordering an increase in the resources of your The World (for example, when you want to create additional hosting accounts). You can also cancel a The World service.
The PlanetHoster Glossary contains explanations on multiple topics and can be consulted to clarify certain terms.
