The Event Planning Server, usually abbreviated as EPS, was a community hub and server created by BootlegDerpy in 2020. It served as a virtual gathering place for a close-knit friend group looking to stay connected during a time when physical meetups were challenging due to the prominence of COVID-19.

## Purpose and Focus

Originally, EPS had a specific purpose of planning events within the group. However, as more members joined, it naturally evolved into a general friend group server. It became a virtual space where members could interact, chat, and share their experiences.

## Atmosphere and Vibe

The EPS embodied a somewhat chaotic yet crucial role in the friend group. It was known for its lively atmosphere, although it occasionally faced controversy. Despite the occasional challenges, EPS remained the go-to place for the group to keep in contact when physical meetups were not feasible. It formed an essential bridge between members during uncertain times.

## Rules and Guidelines

EPS had a set of rules and guidelines to ensure a respectful and harmonious environment (of which almost none were really enforced, and of those that were they weren't written down nor were they consistent). These rules included prohibiting spam, maintaining basic respect and non-discriminatory behavior, adhering to Discord's Terms of Service (TOS), and abstaining from posting NSFW or offensive content. The moderation team played a vital role in (not) enforcing these rules to maintain a positive server experience.

## Notable Features and Channels

While the EPS is currently defunct and unused (due to the server owner not knowing discord had a delete channel button), it had a notable feature known as the Hunger Games. This weekly simulation of the Hunger Games allowed members to engage in friendly competition and added an exciting dynamic to the server.

## Member Count

At its peak, EPS boasted a membership of approximately 32 (")active(") members. This close-knit community contributed to the vibrant and engaging conversations that took place within the server.

## Milestones and Accomplishments

Despite not achieving any specific major milestones, EPS holds the distinction of being the longest-lasting server among the friend group. It served as a foundation and stepping stone for the growth and development of the group.

## Unique and Special Qualities

What made EPS and the friend group truly unique and special was the spirit of connection it fostered. EPS acted as a virtual meeting point, keeping the group united and connected during times of physical separation. By providing a platform for members to chat, share experiences, and engage in activities like the Hunger Games, EPS played a crucial role in building camaraderie within the friend group.

Although EPS is currently defunct, its legacy remains significant, and it holds a special place in the memories of the friend group as a meaningful chapter in their shared journey (press x to doubt).

Remembering EPS serves as a testament to the power of virtual communities, friendship, and adaptability in challenging times.
