Depends on the era and topic yet I love world building ;)
Idea
Idea
era? Topic? What do you mean by those?
High Moon

I have more interest and knowladge about certain periods of history and people that inhabited them, so I would rather work on a world similar to those periods I like in our history.
Idea
Idea
oh... Unfortunately, my idea would be to make entirely made up worlds and characters that would populate them

Every fiction is based on a truth or vice versa, could you clarify?
Idea

I don´t have a particular problem with someone wanting to say, introduce some elements of a particular aspect of life or real history into the made up world, I have a problem with trying to base that world or it´s society around a certain period of history. I don´t want to be bound by any historical period or have to be accurate about it, hence the whole point of making something else up.
Idea
Idea
To put it short, the only rules I want, are functionality rules and the rules that I (or we, if I have a partner) create myself (or ourselves).

Human nature would still be same right? (Assuming there would be humans) if so esentialy same rules would apply, petty beings clashing with each other for control.
Idea

I won´t say that´s human nature, but for the sake of this matter, yeah, there´d still be wars, struggles for power and all those things. I am very serious about consistency of the cause and effect of the worlds I make.

We can debate about human nature some time, but consistency? In which sense? That War brings famine, lowers The population, wreaks the countryside thus famime breaks out, entire towns And cities are razed to ground, families perish? And cycle repeats.
Idea
Idea
that´s one example of it, yes. Another one would be that, if there is a rule in this world that all rivers are scalding hot, then the people in it probably live in such a way that they cool the water before taking it, and they probably live in houses that are protected from heated rain.

But such a world would force people to live in mountanious regions, an exact opposite of our own civilizations that tended to settle on rivers (Or your's atleast, my cultural ancestors were nomads for most of their recorded history.)

this would make The worlds population comperatively power and development of technology would differenitiate as well, focusing on developing communities rellying on animal husbandry rather than agriculture based on farming.
Idea
Idea
yes, quite possibly.
So, do you feel like you got a grip on what I was talking about?
High Moon
High Moon
Yes and I think I might be of help.
Idea
Idea
I wouldn´t call it help, it´s not like I need assitance and more like I would prefer to do this with someone, it´d be more interesting. If it´s just a favor and you don´t think you´ll enjoy it, there is no need to force yourself
High Moon

Don't get my words wrong, my use of English can be a little off. I'd enjoy any kind of world building and I don't do favors, not on the net atleast... so you want to be partners?
