'''The Irony Hub''' is a {{w|spiritual successor}} to [[Irony Hub]] created by several of its original staff members.<ref>{{Cite message|author=niggaswag|date=July 20, 2023 at 22:12 UTC|content=The only ones let in early are original admins/mods from ih helping creating the server and getting everything correct|server=Awesome Planet|channel=general|link=https://discord.com/channels/960580034488324136/960591564474843186/1131710309724327966}}</ref>

== History ==
{{Incomplete|section}}
The server was first concieved by [[Diogo]] in [[Awesome Planet]] on July 20, 2023.<ref>{{Cite message|author=niggaswag|date=July 20, 2023 at 16:23 UTC|content=Im making a new server where all the people i don't like are not allowed. this server will soo fire|server=Awesome Planet|channel=general|link=https://discord.com/channels/960580034488324136/960591564474843186/1131622416641163264}}</ref><ref>{{Cite message|author=niggaswag|date=July 20, 2023 at 16:25 UTC|content=Im making a new server and im calling it Irony Hub no 3 no 4 no anything just Irony Hub.

During its development, Diogo was "demoted" from admin to mod due to his previous actions, although he now has the second highest admin role.<ref>{{Cite message|author=niggaswag|date=July 21, 2023 at 14:33 UTC|content=might not be on this shit after all lol was my idea but got demoted to mod by the admins because of "what i did in the past"|server=r/OkBR|channel=general|link=https://discord.com/channels/1042560991206068295/1042563249863925853/1131957244234305637}}</ref> 

The server was opened to the public on July 22, 2023 at 8:54 PM UTC,<ref>First known posting of invite link: {{Cite message|author=[[7cachemoney]]|date=July 22, 2023 at 20:54 UTC|content=SPREAD THE GIF AND INVITE YOUR FRIENDS 🔥 👀 <nowiki>https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1040896001558446090/1132355203765649408/The_Irony_Hub_GO.gif</nowiki>|server=[[Awesome Planet]]|channel=general|link=https://discord.com/channels/960580034488324136/960591564474843186/1132415331034472559}}</ref> reaching 100 members after a little more than 3 hours. The custom invite was set to '''okbr''' on July 24, after [[Federal Troll Agency|The FTA]] changed theirs from it the day prior.

[[Truckmonth]], an admin of Awesome Planet who also modded The Irony Hub, nuked the former server on August 12, 2023. This helped bring many refugees into the server, reaching 300 members at the same time.

On September 9, 2023, Diogo demoted three of the server's staff members, all of whom were staff since July, and so a mod election was held from September 11-13. [[Honkadaloonga|Leonard]], [[King Jeor]], [[Tyingdoughnut4|Tyingdoughnut]], [[Mcden]], [[Qorty]], and [[Kyoto]] were running for the position, and the two with the most votes were said to be promoted. In the end, Kyoto and Mcden won the most votes, but the mods voted amongst themselves and decided to give Mcden's mod role to Qorty instead.

During late 2023 and early 2024 the decisions by the unassigned owner Diogo and the staff team, many users have started to feel resentment towards the server. This was expressed by few members, due to fears of being contained or outright banned by diogo or juno0, his right hand man. The banning of sussyjamaica, Fox and YB in January of 2024 have raised some eyebrows within the community. 

Sussyjamaica, a user infamous for being childish and creating alts, was alternating between banned and unbanned between December 2023 and January 2024, notoriously paying admin [[juno0]] a 25 dollar gift card to get immunity, which sadly did not help him from getting banned again by Diogo.

This has caused instabilities in the server, like the come up of various refuge servers, most notoriously [[Sigma Academy]], and arguments within The Irony Hub's staff team.
