==History==
On January 11th, 2020, Eilto created the group "Paradox of Myths". Eilto retired from the community and gave ownership to Spereus around July 7th. On October 11, 2021, Spereus gave the ownership back to eilto, and around a month later he retired from the community, this would be followed by a small bit of inactivity within the group as leaders failed to pick up activity, with this inactivity stopping near fully near the end of 2022 due to the myth hunter 5alks, now known as 5alware, becoming a co-owner and popularizing the group for a newer generation. 5al also created a department known as the Paradox of Myths Discovery Unit, made for hunters to post underrated myth games.
On the 5th of February, 2023, the Paradox of Myths group reached 10k members, and on May 21st, 2023, the group reached 11k members. This indicates that Paradox of Myths is growing at a moderate but increasing rate and shows no signs of stopping this growth, with more than around 5 members a day joining the discord server. In July of 2023, the user moocowmemilk would be promoted in this group to the "Overseer" rank in the group. He would then become an active part of the group.
On August 14th, 2023, 5alware left the Paradox of Myths group and the Discovery Unit, soon after announcing his retirement. After this, the group would mostly be managed by the overseer turned community manager of the group, moocowmemilk. moocowmemilk would be the main user who kept up the activity in the group, revamping the entire Discord server and just being a large part of the community. Eventually, in June 2024, it would be announced by moocowmemilk that he would become the new owner of the group, alongside eilto. Only a day later, it would be claimed by moocow that eilto lied to him about this promotion. This led to moocow and many others leaving the group, preforming a small protest against the group. Soon after, 0verdesire, the owner of the myth hunting group "Myth Investigation Service", would be promoted to Overseer, and later owner of the group on the 29th of June, 2024.
After this, 0verdesire would run the group actively, republishing the Paradox Lounge which had formerly been taken down by Roblox, and adding new moderators for the group. This would change however on the 20th of June, when the ownership of the group would suddenly be transferred to "hyperphysical", known better as the retired controversial myth "TheThinkingRoom". Alongside this, all the former staff of the group would be banned, and every rank would be cleared out. This would be met with much pushback from the myth community, as hyperphysical himself is a very controversial user who is also associated with a multitude of controversial users. 
Eventually, the group would go back to regular activity, under the leadership of various new users, with many having a controversial past. One of these users "000XTR", better known as Damaxia, known for previously co-owning the group The Unknown Myths Of Roblox, and for a drama which took place in November 2023. On the 25th of August, 2024, damaxia, Mispolyance, alongside user "HappleTree", would completely vandalize the Paradox of Myths Discord server, as well as their Roblox group. The Discord would have every channel deleted among other things, and the group would lose eight thousand of their previous members. Soon after, the group would be privated by hyper. Later on, in late 2024, the group would officially be locked by Roblox, signifying the true end, of Paradox of Myths. 
Prior to this, on the 23rd of August, the founder of Paradox Of Myths "eilto", would use the POM Twitter account to advertise his successor to POM, known as "Classified Entity Archives". At the time of writing this, the group has already grown quite fast for a new group, although it is still extremely small.

=== hyperphysical ===
hyperphysical, better known as TheThinkingRoom, is the fourth and current owner of Paradox of Myths. While the series events leading up to his ownership are disputed, it was originally stated by 0verdesire that he was doxxed and blackmailed by hyperphysical and IkTrains to get the group, but later on changed his story, stating that he was blackmailed by the group "Creative Alliance" and told to give the group to hyperphysical in order to frame him. Many believe that this second story was tweeted out by request of hyperphysical, due to how 0verdesire would further address the situation, and due to the strange nature of this second story.
