On January 12, 2024, '''Flaming testicle (left)''' was thrown into the pit as a result of his behavior, past and present, involving telling people to kill themselves and jokingly suggesting people take drugs during quite serious discussions, '''Mustard''' would go on to repeatedly call for his banning, despite the fact that he broke no rules that were at the time put in place and enforced. Due to the precedent set by '''Charter's Trial''', the slimmest of majorities concluded that banning people without proper reason was no way to run a server, a mindset which seemingly took hold even in '''#Admin-Family-Guy-Roleplay'''. Despite the opposition of the rest of the '''Mod Team''', '''Mustard''' remained fixated on the idea of banning him, prompting the other mods to ask him to take a rest. '''Flaming testicle (left)''' was set free, and a new rule, Rule 20 <ref> If someone genuinely tells you that your jokes make them uncomfortable, no matter how ironic, you should stop making them immediately. </ref> was unanimously approved 15-0 by the '''Mod Team''', from now on to be enforced as a bannable offense. While '''Flaming testicle (left)''''s case was left in the past, '''Mustard''''s behavior was something that would become more considered in the future.

On ███████ ██, 2024, the past experiences of some '''P1ZZ4 HUT''' members would be brought to the '''Moderators'''' attention. Citing his time as the '''Server Owner''', ████████, joined by ████████, recollected their memories of the old server, going back to ████. Initially starting with the horny talk prevalent on the server, they stated that, due to the general immaturity of the server, '''Mustard''' was far from the only one involved in it, they concluded that the responsibility was on him to moderate rather than engage with it. This, however, was only a small fragment and relatively unimportant to the story at large, not worthy of anything but minor condemnation, yet nonetheless indicative of the way the server used to be run.

As time went on, '''Mustard''' would also implement some quite unpopular server policies, leading to the rise of the term "Mozzarellian"<ref> A direct reference to his Reddit username, u/P1ZZ4_M0ZZARELL4 </ref> as the problems became all the more persistent, with '''Mustard''' unwilling to ██████████ ██████████████ ███ █████████, while █████████████ ████████████ █████ ████████ ████. Another great change was with '''Mustard''' himself, as he ██████ ████████████ ████ as time went on, culminating in █████████, when '''Mustard''' ███████ his "████████████ █████", whereby he would  ███████████ █████ ███ ███████ ███████████████████ ███ █████ ████, prompting two prominent members, ███████ and ███████, to leave. Further conversations with him revealed that ████████████, ██ █████, ██████ █████, but rather ███████ ████████████████ ██████ ███████ ██████ ██ ███████ ███████████ ██████ ███ █████████. Due to the private nature of these conversations, their contents have not been revealed. All of this behavior led to the creation of █ ████████ ███████████████ ███████████████ ███████ ████████████, it would soon turn into ███████ ██ ███████ ████████ ███████ ███████ █████. ███████ █████ ███ █████ ████ ████ ██████, ███████ ██ █ ███████ ████████ ███████ ████ ████████ ████████ █████ ███. ████████ would, in the end, decide to leave '''P1ZZ4 HUT''' and join '''SwagCord''' not long after.

The reason this behavior was brought up was not to punish '''Mustard''' for something that had happened long in the past, but rather something that seemingly continued to this day, as noted even by people not originally involved with the situation on '''P1ZZ4 HUT''', including ████████, who cited the time '''Mustard''' ████████ ███ ████ ████ █████ ███████ ███████████ with ███, ████ ██████ ██ ███ "██████████ ███ ███ ████████", and ███████████, who mentioned the time '''Mustard''' talked about ███ ████ ██ ████ █████ ███████ ██ ████ ███████ ███ ███████ ██ ████ ██████ █████████ ██ ████████ ██ █████ █████ ███████. The evidence was damning.

In the end, it was decided that '''Mustard''' should have his '''mod perms''' taken away, while keeping the exact reasons behind it hidden from the server user base, out of respect for both '''Mustard''' and the other people involved. What was seemingly forgotten, however, was to give an explanation to '''Mustard''' himself. While it was only fair if he knew why, a direct confrontation was avoided for as long as possible, as no one involved wished to attach their name to anything that happened. However, with everyone, '''Mustard''' included, left answerless, it was not surprising that questions would soon arise. '''Mustard''' contacted '''Walter''' on January 19, seeking answers, receiving a watered-down version without any names or details while '''Walter''' urged the others to share the story with him. Finally, on January 21, ████████ decided to privately talk to him and explain the reasons behind his '''admin removal'''.
