Reggie Revolutionary Movement

## The old community

Back in late 2019, a server based around fictional character **Reggie the Rat** was created. Server became popular because the owner posted a lot of memes about Reggie the rat in **CallMeCarson discord** **server**. Due to this many members were either **furries** or some kind of trolls for who the defining trait of the server was the Reggie the rat meme.

## Begining of the movement

The first signs of unhapiness were showed by members when the owner decided to **switch the theme** of the server in order to switch the audience of the server from furries. A joke was created among the **admins** where it would be sarcastically said something along the lines that *its time to rebel and revert the server to its Reggie phase.*

## The movement grows

As the members in the server were slowly replaced by audience that prefered the servers new anime themes, old members would often be displeased and became more radical about trying to make Reggie the Rat trending in the server. Around late 2020, server owner brought a person that roleplayed as his gf(**San**) into the server and gave her a high rank with perms of an admin. On multiple occassions, server members would be annoyed by San or in a select few cases she would even bully a younger discord user Dinoman. This gave **old members** that held grudges against server owner, **new members** that held grudges against San and many **admins** who disliked the idea of San having high rank a similiar goal which would unite them in the near future. **Kroatische Doge** created a private group and a closed server whose purpose was to organise a new reactionary movement that had the goals of returning server to its Reggie theme and kicking San out of the server. It was named the **Reggie Revolutionary Movement.**

## The revolution

    Mid **January 2021**, the situation escalated. Mods that were a part of the Revolutionary Movement exploited the owners absence in order to enforce their demands. Server icon was switched to a picture of **Reggie the Rat** and there was no lack of yiff in most of the channels. When San found out what was happening she decided to back off and wait for the server owners return. After a brief period, the owner returned and decided to **purge** many members of the moderation team that participated in the uprising. This actions consequences are described in ***The split*** and in the ***Aftermath of the revolution***.

## The split

    After the revolution was broken down, the revolutionaires split into **two groups**. Those who were willing to go back to the **old server** and those who wanted to create a **Reggie server**. The leader of revolution decided to prevent further splits and cooperated with the server owner, but the damage was already done. Around dozen and a half members already joined the newly created **Reggie server**. For a short period, false flag operations were conducted by both sides, using alts for espionage etc.. Since the old Revolution leader did not migrate to the new server, few high ranked revolutionaires (mainly Sniperfoxeh and Jeppy<3) could not come to an agreement on who should be the new leader and the new server was deleted among all the struggle for power.

## Aftermath of the revolution

Many OG members have been **banned**, memeber count decreased, and the owner no longer had much **opposition** among admins. The perms of most admins have been decreased which resulted in already weak moderation further decreasing and server entered a state of **anarchy**. Some of the revolutionaires were **unbanned** and their return was allowed by the owner, eg. NoFace was unabnned.
