==Rip Drake== === Beginning === On the 15th of November, an announcement was posted in the #announcements channel by the user [[Wurzt]] that told members to start sending messages with the #RipDrake hashtag on the Twitter platform, many other servers such as [[Dogelore]] or [[Irony Hub]] also helped with the effort of pushing the hashtag into the trending section of Twitter. This goal was finally met and thanks to that many innocent individuals were caught up in a somewhat elite act of ironic trolling.<ref>[https://i.gyazo.com/36c19d8aaa4f84df29d0755b8b1324b9.png Screenshot of a message in the #announcement channel related to #RipDrake going trending in the US.]</ref><ref>[https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/528925949568483328/777333032226783262/image0.png Screenshot of many unrelated twitter users getting trolled by #RipDrake]</ref> === Rip Drake Goes Mainstream === [[File:Lifetime.png|thumb|336x336px|The #RipDrake hashtag appearing in the trending section of the United States of America.]] All of this resulted in an official statement from the Twitter team, <ref>[https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/528925949568483328/777338425724239972/Em04dX8WEAExx9s.png Screenshot of the official statement from the twitter team.]</ref>calming many people down who actually believed that Drake died from unknown causes.

Also thanking them in the process.<ref>[https://i.gyazo.com/c8349020014a2c18259911fdf261495a.png Screenshot of Wurzt's announcement thanking everyone who powered the hashtag.]</ref> [[File:Image44444.png|thumb|712x712px|Announcement that sent a message to the general public about #RipDrake]] [[File:Innocent Individual.png|thumb|387x387px|An innocent individual caught in an elite act of trolling.]] <blockquote>''Thank @Wessβ» for making the idea with me in vc'' ''Thank @Moe_ for being a first responder and advertising this on Irony Hub'' ''Thank @cristen for advertising this on Dogelore'' ''Thank @andromeda for being a first responder and making that heaven image'' ''Thank dactyl for making the fake shooting article along with inflating the tag'' ''Thank @super sonic fan for making the fake genius article that went viral on my account'' ''Thank @astralsky for making the rick roll latlmes article that i tweeted'' ''Thank @aterr for inflating the tag at the beginning'' ''Thank @(n04) for above Thank fritze for above'' ''Thank @Extra for above Thank @nikkouga for above'' ''Thank @Aeri for above (he showed up in a news article too)'' ''Thank @Bucket for above and getting his account banned Thank'' ''@Deleted User for above'' ''Thank @SpangleMoth for above'' ''Thank @SpeedPlatinum for above'' ''Thank @hav for above'' ''Thank @Ohio for above'' ''Thank @Ray P.
