Quotev Colony

Scholastica Wikia Page
Throughout the early life of the SAMB, MBers who were especially close would often meet up on other platforms to socialize. However, these were usually one-on-one personal communications. Large-scale migration of the SAMB community was largely unheard of until the aftermath of the Blizz War.
== Initial Migration ==
After losing the Blizz War and all hope of getting his account unbanned, Blizz told others (through secondary accounts, and with varying levels of secrecy) that he had moved to the website Quotev, and he invited everyone from the SAMB to come and join him. Many SAMBers with close ties to Blizz decided to make Quotev accounts and join him on the alternate platform - while staying active on the SAMB, for the most part - and created a new community there. And thus the first known Colony of the SAMB was formed.
== Success ==
At its height, the Quotev Colony numbered more than a dozen SAMBers, and featured many groups, polls, individual and co-op stories and roleplays, and more, and had its own intricate culture with drama, shipping, and inside jokes galore. Over time, as certain members were banned from the SAMB motherland or left due to personal reasons, the Quotev Colony became their new homeland.
Fun fact: Some RPGs from the SAMB were meticulously copied-and-pasted to Quotev, and because of the 2018 Thread Purge, and later SAMB's deletion in mid-2019, those Quotev versions remain the only surviving copies of those RPGs.
== Decline ==
However, over time, many key members of the community left or vanished, and the Colony was eventually rendered inactive. Many old SAMBers still continue to use Quotev, but in a personal and individual manner, no longer part of the mother community they came from.
Near the end of the Quotev Colony's life, some members attempted to migrate to Wattpad, but the Wattpad Colony was never very large or successful and quickly went inactive as well.
And thus, the Quotev and Wattpad Colonies will go down in SAMB History as failed attempts at internet colonialism, but served as useful precursors to the marginally more successful Fandom Colonies and Discord Colonies, which became incredibly important following the Removal of the Forums.
