OkPrietenRetardat/Timeline
On August 6th, 2020, QuiXotiC (also known as Alex) created the subreddit r/okprietenretardat, the Romanian equivalent of r/okbuddyretard. Being one of the first Romanian ironic memes communities, it was intended to be a hub for shitposting and sharing ironic/post-ironic memes, which also include topics from Romanian society and culture. Thus, it became a rule of thumb to post and share Romanian-themed shitposts.
OKPR v1 (November, 2020 - May 15th, 2021)
Beginning
Founded during November 2020, OKPR v1 was the first edition of the server, and gave the subreddit's community a chance to connect with eachother. Originally, it was created by another person while the subreddit had 900 members, with the purpose of celebrating the next milestone of one thousand Reddit members. QuiXotiC was invited, and server ownership was transferred to him. Messages on Reddit related to v1's creation are all deleted, so, presently, the original server creator and v1's exact creation date are unknown.
Deletion
On May 15th, a member of OKPR, HMK, known as HomemadeKetchup, started spamming gore images and scat images around the server, causing it to get permanently deleted.
OKPR v2 (May 15th, 2021 - August 27th, 2022)
Creation of v2
After the deletion of v1, OKPR v2 was created by Alex, again.
Involvement in r/place
On April Fools' Day 2022, Reddit decided to reinstate the r/place experiment, which lasted for four days, including two expansions of the canvas to allow for more space.
Since the early moments of the project, OKPR members wanted to leave their mark on canvas by drawing their well-known symbol, the Romanian trollface, with little progress. After the first canvas expension, a relatively empty space has been found and the drawing of the trollface started. Soon, the members of r/pMegu subreddit began to draw Megumin, a character from the anime series Konosuba, very close to trollface. Initially girefing the drawing and slowing OKPR progress, the r/pMegu's Discord server users reached OKPR members and eventually formed an alliance, by which everyone involved in r/place experiment have sworn to protect each others drawings.
Deletion
On August 27th, 2022, an OKPR member, PieSamuray, started posting on #bucuresti-general about leaked conversations and faces of Alex and his cousin, by asking her to 'send nudes' creating huge conflicts and impact around the server.
Alex, being panicked, had no other choice but to delete the server, marking the death of v2.
OKPR v3 (August 27, 2022 - present)
Creation of v3
After the founding of v3, Alex retired from ownership. Delu created another server, 'making' him the new owner. PieSamuray also joined, but after another attempt of trying to spam in #bucuresti-general, he was caught by the staff and banned permanently. Since then, the staff have made the new server a bit more organized.
OrthoSB's banwave/purge of 50+ members
OrthoSB believed the server was unsafe from people of WAGTHRO and random alternate accounts. He stalked and monitored every member and their every move. His senses of unsafety activated, and he banned more than 50+ inactive members. The purge was noticed by the rest of the staff and OrthoSB stated that it was the right decision for him. The members who've been caught in the banwave are still banned to this day.
HMK and PieSamuray's raid
HMK and PieSamuray's raid was a little event, organized by two good old members, bypassing the bans with VPNs and spamming some more of Alex's doxxing. The attack was noticed and resolved by MTL, who banned both of them and purged the doxx rampage.
Deletion of the first #bucuresti-general and Chris' deletion
On November 11th, 2022, a member of the staff, Chris P. Bacon, deleted the first #bucuresti-general and kicked Relu and Balgoaca, stating that it was 'funny.'
Some staff members, especially Relu, were against it. Chris P. Bacon, when asked for an explanation, stated that his act was a 'last trolling moment and a goodbye.' Immediately, Chris P. Bacon left the server, and deleted his Discord account.
