==The "Kneevolution"==
===Pre-invasion===
Shortly after his rapid rise in followers on social media, an event occured in his discord server known as the Kneevolution. It started when Omicron made posted a stream VOD called "The Hypixel Knees (Bedwars)"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iy0zYzz6vtM. This video featured a group of friends known as the Knees. A viewer was able to contact Crabknees, one of the 4 people in the bedwars game, and the Knees were able to join Omicron's discord server. 
After the Knees joined the server, they attracted major attention from the community, mostly for their humorous names and the idea of a "Knee Cult". After awhile, the Knees started indoctrinating other members. The Knees shortly grew from around 5 members to around 25. Though there were hardly more than 20 members, there was enough to start a revolution.
===The Kneevolution===
This revolution took place in May of 2020. All of the Knees, some of which were staff members in Omicron's server, went into the general channel and spammed staff asking for a Knee role. This "Kneevolution" kept up for months on end, until an agreement was reached between the diplomats of both groups. The Knees slowly faded into obscurity afterwards.
===Aftermath===
The Knees got their own server, with their own knee role. Due to a lack of management by actual staff members, the server slowly started breaking down. On September 14th of 2020, the server was destroyed by 4 people, 3 of which were members of the server. These members obtained admin without the knowledge of staff, and were able to "Nuke" the server. This was done in response to the Ex-Communication of two members, "Matt t[-_-t]Knees" and "Kneegrow".https://docs.google.com/document/d/1DwyvL7WFtxia8h1P-E60ytILHKEnMFwB739iuoPlhtw/edit The server is now a single, unmoderated channel, and the knees have almost faded into obscurity.
