5 months in. The server is barely online, and '''Meme Alt''' is trying to find ways to revive it. Then a wonderful idea comes to their head. They bring forth '''girard''', a '''GenAI''' chatbot that learns from server's messages. His first words were notable for being the funniest shit ever, and he was quickly accepted into a community despite our differences between humans and chatbots.

[[File:19SwagBalls84HutStatic.png|thumb|151x151px|A new era of '''anti-chuddery''' was ushered into '''19SwagBalls84.''']]
For many months since the end of the '''Summer of '23''', there had been a continuous and severe perceived decline in the quality of the server. With a new userbase slowly emerging from the ashes of the old, veteran '''SwagCorders''', many of whom had long taken refuge in '''KirbyCord''', were reluctant to continue using the server due to a mutual dislike shared by the two sides. With '''chuddiness''' and '''rule-breaking''' prevalent, leading to many complaints from the older userbase{{Citation needed}}, it was becoming increasingly clear that a strong grip on the server needed to be placed in order to correct its course.
==== The Swag-Kirby Split ====
[[File:Big Brother Propaganda Poster 69SB420.jpg|thumb|229x229px|A propaganda poster designed by '''Ballistyx''', the '''Minister of Swag''', promoting the values of '''19SwagBalls84'''. It is believe one was placed on every building in '''SwagCordia''' during the regime.]]
On January 27, 2024, after much deliberation, the '''mod team''', referred to as the '''Party''', decided to take action, with newly-crowned server dictator '''Walter''' taking on the role of '''Big Brother''', starting a crackdown on '''rule-breaking''' behavior<ref>{{Cite message|author='''Decoherence'''|date=January 27, 2024|content=1984 police state until people learn to be nice to each other|server=19SwagBalls84|channel='''admin-family-guy-roleplay'''}}</ref> and rebranding the server with an Orwellian aesthetic, returning the server back to its glory days, by force, if needed. However, these changes would not prevent the inevitable '''Swag-Kirby split''', occurring on February 4, formally cutting the long-developed ties between the servers, citing an influx of bad users coming to '''KirbyCord''' by means of '''SwagBalls'''.{{Citation needed}} Although '''Walter''' was offered a cushy government job at '''KirbyCord''' as an '''admin''', which he humbly accepted, he continues using '''SwagCord''' against his better judgement.

==== The Final Days of the Regime ====
In an effort to more efficiently enforce the crackdown, with the '''mod team''' becoming bloated and ineffective as many had stopped using the server regularly, on February 20, '''Barley''' is plucked from among the '''proles''' and is given '''mod perms''', who, according to '''Decoherence''', the '''Minister of Love''', was "the only active user [he]'d trust with mod right now".<ref>{{Cite message|author='''Decoherence'''|date=February 20, 2024|content=barley is the only active user I'd trust with mod right now|server=19SwagBalls84|channel='''admin-family-guy-roleplay'''}}</ref> '''Barley''' served as a '''moderator''' with distinction, however after a political debate on Palestine/Israel she decided to take a break from discord and left SwagBalls.


=== The Exile of Devil ===
On March 2, the '''19SwagBalls84 Criminal Code''' was rewritten by '''Decoherence''' after a series of complaints from the '''chud underclass'''. The new rules, based on the original rules, rewritten in order to cut down on gray areas and to make the rules' enforcement both more transparent and easier, were subsequently unanimously voted in favor of by the '''moderators''' (8-0) with minor alterations. Made public on March 4, the '''New Criminal Code''' separates offenses into three categories of severity, ranging from offenses of the third-degree, the least severe and only lightly punished, to offenses of the first-degree, which lead to an immediate ban.
 
With over a month passing since the server rebranded, the '''mod team''' would receive many complaints about running the joke to the group and continuing to play into the bit long after it wore off. The '''New Criminal Code''' was especially controversial, with rules such as the one preventing the use of "kys" producing much discontent. Discontent continued to rise, and the powder keg was nearly ready to go off.

Like the aforementioned "crossbreeding", the trio also brought in some of their Swagballs culture to the table. The server quickly had summoned Girards' cousin - Reginald, which apparently, Girard despises. Meme Alt has also given Koknese the source code for the SwagBalls bot and he quickly edited it and established the Ragecord equivalent of pitting practices - tickets to Justin Bieber performances.

The trio also vowed to leave Swagballs once they gain a stable, active member count, each with their own reasons - one maybe feels slightly offended by the shittalking, others may also be tieed with the god complex of Larkc.

Ragecord has merged with Hellcord, an inactive, 500 user filled subreddit/server. SwagBalls politologists and forecasters have projected Ragecord to reach a minimum of 200~  members until late August.

<!----Ragecord rebellion against the swagcord leadership

goal: deposing LarKcuavian from power
notes:
overwhelming belief amongst the revolutionaries that LarkCuavian had anything more than figurehead powers
threat of a cockroach invasion (koknese)
possible koknese alts (10) in the server---->
On a chilly evening in Eastern Europe, something suspicious was going on in Ragecord. The SwagBalls ambassador and leader, Walter was quickly temporarily imprisoned, with charter and koknese claiming, that they're keeping him safe from nuclear war and claiming he is in a bunker. Unbeknownst to Walter, a riot was brewing in ragecords' Swagballian politics channel, with gatesby rallying up the freaky folk and the ragecordian separatists.
Shortly after assembling, koknese started directing cryptic, one word messages in the main chat calling for standby of seemingly freaky users, and then immediately after the strike time began, they indeed, began striking.
Walter was just in time to try and stop the riot, immediately shooting koknese with a taser and disposing of him in The Pit, and the rest. The riot consisted of spamming "riot" and freaky gifs.
Furthermore in The Pit, koknese planned on staying silent, responding only with gifs of imprisoned Navalny, however after being asked by Walter if he prefers Novichok or a gunshot, he began speaking up.
A major debate sparked as the Vice Swagsident joined in The Pit. The debate was so heated that Walter even opened up the Pit for everyone to see.
[...]
After charters and kokneses' grievances were not met, koknese began threatening Walter with really serious threats, such as calling the Cockroach. Koknese had the cockroaches discord back when they wanted to film a Swagballs documentary and koknese decided to ask jewedittor for an interview.
Koknese also proceeded to threaten that just closing down the server won't really help, as it's common knowledge that jewedittor has alts lurking in the dark, and Koknese also revealed that over the years he has snuck over 8 accounts into the server, and that he is not afraid to give them out like candy to Jewedittors crew.

You've heard of the '''9GAG''' app. <br>
 
We all have, the '''legend''', the '''curses'''. <br>
Foolishness about it lying on '''the second page of Google''', buried beneath '''Reddit posts'''. <br>

A chance for anyone to '''meme again'''. <br>

The existence of '''9GAG''' has long been known to many. Created in 2008 by '''Hong Kong''' entrepreneur '''Ray Chan''', it has for years been mocked for its style of humor, with the site's userbase seemingly permanently stuck in the year 2012, its culture never evolving past it as was custom among the other corners of the internet. Furthering their notoriety was the world-famous [https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/events/9gags-meme-monument '''9GAG Meme Rock'''], which to this day strikes cringe in the hearts of even the most unflinching souls. Yet how many had dared open the website for themselves?
 
The answer, surprisingly, is very few. Though it had remained in plain view for many years, its existence was thoroughly ignored for the large part by the general public. It was not until the '''mod team''' of [[69MoeLester420#The_9GAG_conquest|69MoeLester420]] jokingly created accounts for the website in January 2023 that its secrets would finally be unveiled. What they discovered was a website so horrid, so appalling, yet so endlessly fascinating it had remained their obsession for many months afterwards. It was all it was described as and more, an endless stream of racist content presented in formats that had gone out of fashion a decade prior, lacking any and all self-awareness, combined with a userbase in their 30s so mentally dense it is surprising they haven't collapsed into a black hole.
 
Any post, no matter how obviously satirical, passes as genuine in the eyes of a '''9GAGGER''', to the point where one has to question their own sanity, weighing whether their mannerisms are all part of a conspiratorial ploy, for there was no possible way a functioning human being could get that irrationally mad over such obvious bait. A '''Tony Zaret''' skit come to life, it is of no surprise that the '''mod team''' started pushing the limits of what they'll fall for, always managing to attain a successful result.
 
Come the '''SwagBalls-69MoeLester420 Merge''', the knowledge of what was found on '''9GAG''' was suddenly shared with an audience of hundreds. Though it has largely fallen out of fashion, trolling on '''9GAG''' had become a staple hobby of '''69SwagBalls420''' when it was first introduced. With dozens, if not hundreds of posts shared, a large dataset has been created showing many successes and failures that may enable the development of more sophisticated trolling methods in the future.
