Definition needed: Closed realm?

Archived from groups: alt.games.diablo (More info?)

I've heard a few different termed uses for realms. What does "closed
realm" mean? I assume it's a ladder realm (not non ladder) on bnet
where you can't move your player between single player and bnet?

Thanks for any clarification.

Actually ladder and non-ladder play both occur on the closed realms. Closed
Realm is just the fancy name for what most people consider normal realm
play.

Open play isn't something many people do. You log onto bnet with your
single player charcters, which are saved on your computer, rather than on
bnet like closed realms.
