&lt;br /&gt;
==== Synopsis ====&lt;br /&gt;
The Removal of Famed Emote Brendan from Deep Fried Memes Two was a controversial event that occurred on the popular Discord server, Deep Fried Memes Two, on June 23rd, 2020. This event sparked a wave of outrage and debate within the online meme community, with many users taking to various social media platforms to voice their opinions and concerns.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The emote in question, known as &amp;quot;Brendan,&amp;quot; was a popular and beloved feature of the server, depicting a cartoonish character with a distinctive expression that was often used in reaction to various memes and jokes. Despite its popularity, however, the server&#039;s moderators ultimately decided to remove the emote, citing concerns over copyright infringement (what the FUCK were they smoking???)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The decision to remove Brendan was met with a great deal of opposition from many members of the server, who argued that the emote was a harmless and widely-recognized symbol within the meme community, and that its removal was unnecessary and unjustified. Many users also expressed frustration with the server&#039;s moderation policies, which they felt were overly restrictive and inconsistent.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In response to the controversy, the server&#039;s administrators released a statement defending their decision, arguing that they were simply enforcing their own copyright policies and protecting the integrity of the server. They also emphasized that the removal of Brendan was not intended as a personal attack on any individual or group within the community.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Despite these efforts to justify the decision, however, the controversy surrounding Brendan&#039;s removal continued to simmer, with many users calling for the emote to be reinstated and for the server&#039;s moderation policies to be reevaluated. Some users even organized protests and boycotts of the server in response to the controversy.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ultimately, the fallout from the Removal of Famed Emote Brendan from Deep Fried Memes Two serves as a cautionary tale about the challenges of managing online communities and navigating the complex and ever-evolving world of internet culture. While the controversy has since died down, it continues to be a topic of discussion among meme enthusiasts and online communities more broadly, highlighting the importance of transparency, communication, and community engagement in shaping the online world.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Legacy and implications ====&lt;br /&gt;
the removal of the :brendan: emote was a catastrophic event in the history of this server. It was a symbol of freedom and expression, and its removal signaled the start of a dark era. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The mod team who removed the emote continued to do more invasive measures. They began to implement increasingly authoritarian measures, such as censorship of certain words and phrases, banning members without reason, and even monitoring private conversations. This created a climate of fear and mistrust among the members, who were unsure of what they could or could not say. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As a result of this, a group of members formed an opposition movement, calling for the restoration of the :brendan: emote and the repeal of the mod team&#039;s authoritarian measures. However, the mod team responded with even more force, banning members who expressed opposition and even doxxing some of them. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This led to a split in the community, with some members leaving the server and others staying but living in fear. The mod team, emboldened by their success in suppressing dissent, began to implement even more fascist policies, such as forced ideological conformity and a cult of personality around the server owner.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In the end, the Deep Fried Memes 2 ironic discord server became a shadow of its former self, a place where freedom of expression was non-existent and dissent was brutally suppressed. All because of the removal of a single emote.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Effects ====&lt;br /&gt;
According to reports from various online forums and social media platforms, the removal of the :brendan: emote from the Deep Fried Memes 2 ironic discord server had drastic and dark socio-political consequences that cannot be ignored. The emote was a symbol of unity and solidarity among the members of the server, and its removal was seen as an act of censorship and suppression of free speech. This led to a wave of anger and frustration among the members, who felt that their voices were being silenced and their opinions disregarded.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As a result, many of these members turned to far-right ideology and extremist groups, which provided them with a sense of belonging and a platform to voice their opinions. This further fueled the spread of hate speech, bigotry, and xenophobia, which have become increasingly prevalent in online communities. The removal of the emote can be seen as a warning sign of the dangers of online censorship and the suppression of free speech, which can have far-reaching and unintended consequences.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Moderator response/counter ====&lt;br /&gt;
From a broader perspective, the moderator team at DFM 2 may argue that they are protecting the server from potential harm by removing the :brendan: emote. The emote may have been perceived by some users as controversial or offensive, and could have led to conflicts or divisions within the community. By removing the emote, the moderators are attempting to maintain a cohesive and welcoming environment for all users.&lt;br /&gt;

The decision to remove Brendan was met with a great deal of opposition from many members of the server, who argued that the emote was a harmless and widely-recognized symbol within the meme community, and that its removal was unnecessary and unjustified. Many users also expressed frustration with the server&#039;s moderation policies, which they felt were overly restrictive and inconsistent.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In response to the controversy, the server&#039;s administrators released a statement defending their decision, arguing that they were simply enforcing their own copyright policies and protecting the integrity of the server. They also emphasized that the removal of Brendan was not intended as a personal attack on any individual or group within the community.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Despite these efforts to justify the decision, however, the controversy surrounding Brendan&#039;s removal continued to simmer, with many users calling for the emote to be reinstated and for the server&#039;s moderation policies to be reevaluated. Some users even organized protests and boycotts of the server in response to the controversy.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ultimately, the fallout from the Removal of Famed Emote Brendan from Deep Fried Memes Two serves as a cautionary tale about the challenges of managing online communities and navigating the complex and ever-evolving world of internet culture. While the controversy has since died down, it continues to be a topic of discussion among meme enthusiasts and online communities more broadly, highlighting the importance of transparency, communication, and community engagement in shaping the online world.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Legacy and implications ====&lt;br /&gt;
the removal of the :brendan: emote was a catastrophic event in the history of this server. It was a symbol of freedom and expression, and its removal signaled the start of a dark era. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The mod team who removed the emote continued to do more invasive measures. They began to implement increasingly authoritarian measures, such as censorship of certain words and phrases, banning members without reason, and even monitoring private conversations. This created a climate of fear and mistrust among the members, who were unsure of what they could or could not say. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As a result of this, a group of members formed an opposition movement, calling for the restoration of the :brendan: emote and the repeal of the mod team&#039;s authoritarian measures. However, the mod team responded with even more force, banning members who expressed opposition and even doxxing some of them. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This led to a split in the community, with some members leaving the server and others staying but living in fear. The mod team, emboldened by their success in suppressing dissent, began to implement even more fascist policies, such as forced ideological conformity and a cult of personality around the server owner.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In the end, the Deep Fried Memes 2 ironic discord server became a shadow of its former self, a place where freedom of expression was non-existent and dissent was brutally suppressed. All because of the removal of a single emote.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Effects ====&lt;br /&gt;
According to reports from various online forums and social media platforms, the removal of the :brendan: emote from the Deep Fried Memes 2 ironic discord server had drastic and dark socio-political consequences that cannot be ignored. The emote was a symbol of unity and solidarity among the members of the server, and its removal was seen as an act of censorship and suppression of free speech. This led to a wave of anger and frustration among the members, who felt that their voices were being silenced and their opinions disregarded.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As a result, many of these members turned to far-right ideology and extremist groups, which provided them with a sense of belonging and a platform to voice their opinions. This further fueled the spread of hate speech, bigotry, and xenophobia, which have become increasingly prevalent in online communities. The removal of the emote can be seen as a warning sign of the dangers of online censorship and the suppression of free speech, which can have far-reaching and unintended consequences.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Moderator response/counter ====&lt;br /&gt;
From a broader perspective, the moderator team at DFM 2 may argue that they are protecting the server from potential harm by removing the :brendan: emote. The emote may have been perceived by some users as controversial or offensive, and could have led to conflicts or divisions within the community. By removing the emote, the moderators are attempting to maintain a cohesive and welcoming environment for all users.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Created on June 8th, 2021, Kek Zone was made by Wry as a replacement for The [[Federal Troll Agency]]. It lasted until September 24th, 2021 when it fell victim to mass reporting.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==The Original Kek Zone (June 8th, 2017 - June 16th, 2021)==&lt;br /&gt;
The original server that Wry made on June 8th, 2017 only lasted for eight days before being deleted due Wry&#039;s account being mass reported by [[FTA]] loyalists. An Epic Games collab with Discord was happening during these few days which allowed anyone to get nitro. This led to the server getting over 60 boosts in just eight days. The server also managed to get 300 members in this time, mainly because of the invite being spammed during the June 11 [[FTA]] nuke. [[Bangshakalaka]] joined and pleaded for admin. Wry wanted to give it to him but he was strictly a man of the people. Bang was berated for how he owned the [[FTA]] and ended up leaving not too long after joining.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Many believe it was Ra, an infamous mass reporter and former gondal, who reported Kek Zone which led to the banning of many members off Discord, including Wry. Wry would make a new account and a new Kek Zone almost immediatly which would last for much longer.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

==Kek Zone 2 (June 16th, 2021 - September 24th, 2021)==&lt;br /&gt;
Just two minutes after being created, the server managed to gain over 100 members which was a new record for FTA history that has yet to be beaten. In just two days, the second Kek Zone would get over 30 boosts meaning it could get its very own vanity link. Kek Zone would try many vanities such as discord.gg/boi but would eventually end up on discord.gg/cheems, which they would keep for a while. The server experienced steady growth and a very active memberbase. This was largely due to strong leadership by both Wry and his newly appointed co-owner [[Otto]] who has been a member in [[FTA]] for some time but is only now seeing the light of authority.&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Demoti9n.png|left|thumb|359x359px|Printer being demoted in WhenThe for his actions in Kek Zone (as well as some other things).]]&lt;br /&gt;
[[Otto]] led the server to greatness and was liked by almost the entirety of the community. Another important factor the help lended by [[Moe Lester|Moe]]. He brought many new members which allowed Kek Zone to remain active throughout its entire history, unlike the [[FTA]]. [[Otto|Otto&#039;s]] reign wouldn&#039;t be completely perfect however. He would constantly argue with one of the new admins known as Dankus. The arguments would sometime&#039;s get so heated that [[Otto]] would leave for a period of time. This would continue even beyond Kek Zone.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Daeseron (also known as &amp;quot;rrdddddd&amp;quot;) was a mod and someone Wry thought he could trust. This would all change on July 27th, 2021 when he would give mod to infamous Kek Zone haters such as Printer and Alan which allowed them to nuke the server. These were members of a server known as [[Thou Art]] who saw Kek Zone as one of the most inferior servers of all time. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The [[Thou Art]] members caused significant damage to the server&#039;s channels and mass pinged thousands of times. Repairs were made post haste but just a few hours later the server was nuked once again by an unknown entity. Someone pretended to be one of the admins at the time named Arby and stated that his old account was deleted and needed admin on his new one. Wry believed them and gave the new account admin which led to the second nuke of the day. The unknown attacker is believed to be either Trollmaster, who has pulled this same stunt in the past, or Cat.png who has been recently wronged by one of Kek Zone&#039;s close partners [[China]]. The next day on July 28th, 2021, one of the attackers from the [[Thou Art]] nuke, Printer, was demoted in [[Whenthe|WhenThe]] for previous wrong doings . Upon receiving this news, Printer pleaded for forgiveness from Kek Zone, which he did not recieve. (this might b cap)&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Terriblenews.png|thumb|352x352px|Raised comes to Wry saying that Dankus has been locked out of the server.]]&lt;br /&gt;
An idea is being discussed between the three big servers of the time being Kek Zone, [[China]], and [[Gondal]] where [[China]] and [[Gondal]] would nuke their server and migrate all their members to Kek Zone and in return, the owners of those servers would also become owner in Kek Zone. The merger almost occurs but it eventually cancelled last minute due to Theno wanting [[Gondal]] to stay independent. This would end up being the right move for all servers involved, especially Kek Zone which was getting more popular by the day. One of the ways Kek Zone was getting so popular was the introduction of stage discovery. Stage discovery allowed any user throughout all of Discord to join a server by looking at the stage discovery panel and joining a stage that they found interesting. Kappy would host a lot of stages with the help of Wry, Zokluke, Joverica, and Jake101. The stages would be quite popular.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The server continued to grow and managed to reclaim their discord.gg/poop vanity which they had during the [[FTA]]. On September 24th, Raised came to Wry saying that his friend Dankus couldn&#039;t access the server anymore since it said the server was NSFW. Soon enough, more and more reports came in that the server was marked as NSFW. [[Wry]] receievd an email that stated that the server was marked as NSFW and was no longer available for use on IOS devices. Panic ensued and many appeals were sent directly to Discord but they were to no avail. A backup server was created as the admins attempted to figure out what to do. Eventually, [[Wry]] contacted WigWav with the idea to make a collaborative server between the two of them. WigWav&#039;s server [[China]] was struggling to remain active at the time and Kek Zone was pretty much done for so it seemed like the right move. After a bit more discussion between the two and other FTA Discord elites, a new server was constructed with the temporary name of &amp;quot;[[Greatest Server Ever Made]]&amp;quot; on September 24th, 2021. The name would end up sticking and wouldn&#039;t be changed once throughout the server&#039;s entire lifetime. The very next day, Kek Zone was nuked and the members migrated to the [[Greatest Server Ever Made]], or GSEM for short.&lt;/div&gt;</summary>
