On June 20, 2019, one of the server's active users, Nai, was reported to have committed suicide. An admin named GamingEchoBlox mistakenly believed her reason for suicide was due to drama on the server, and so he began nuking the server with a few other staff members and some regular users several hours later. Since over 400 members and most of the server's channels had been lost, The decided to open a new TBS, which soon became known as '''TBS REBORN'''. | On June 20, 2019, one of the server's active users, Nai, was reported to have committed suicide.
