Editing OkBR Timeline (section)

=== Early History ===
On December 10, 2017, Kirbizia created the subreddit r/okbuddyretard and several other subreddits to store memes she found funny. Over the following weeks, others began to join in. The mods mainly consisted of people she knew off r/[[bonehurtingjuice]] (seannerz, netwiderogue, pizza)

The first OkBuddyRetard Discord server was created on January 3, 2018. It was sort of an anarchy server, with a series of regular users who would have normal conversations to a backdrop of "degenerate meme spam" as [[Uhtred]] put it. There were lots of prolific users on the server at this time, one of which being a Brazillian Integralist (unironic fascist) called [[Skeleton]], who used to rant about exterminating the unclean.

Kirbizia was the owner or ‘Queen Buddy’, and the roles were ‘Ok Retard’, ‘Ok Buddy’, ‘King Retard’ and ‘King Buddy’, those last 2 being mod and admin. She used to be relatively chill, but started troll-banning people and clearing music queues, and later went inactive for a while at one point. All of OkBR1's moderators at the time were old friends off BHJ and Kirbizia’s girlfriend (garfieldkart/[[ava]]) The BHJ mods didn’t really care at the time, so the server was ran by her and Ava.

The first user to get admin outside of Kirbizia’s friends was a person called [[Vati]], who modded for a while but later got in a car crash and quit the server. The new moderation staff told Kirbizia to get rid of the BHJ mods because they were all relatively inactive on server and Kirbizia agreed. Pizza added them all back acting like a head admin, but they were quickly demoted and Pizza never spoke on the server again.

Modding was very unstructured at this time, mods could not ping everyone in mod channels so mod votes went unoticed. [[Venomi]] began to integrate a lot of stuff from other meme servers, such as the Dumbass role, Mod votes, Mod applications and the wiab chat, which were stolen from the [[Deep Fried Memes|DeepFriedMemes]] Discord (all staples of the modern [[Whenthe]] experience, thanks to Venomi) This also included the inclusion of the Shapiro Squad, Doge Squad and Garfield Gang roles, which would all become their modern equivalents. Garfield Gang was shortlived and died very quickly. Roles were originally given based on messages sent. However, this was changed to actual quality and time spent on server, despite there still being a remaining debate on what that meant.
