Founder | Myszak |
Its predecessor, OkBuddyRetard 4, was nuked and deleted in April 2022, with the staff showed no interest in creating another one. However, over a year later, Myszak convinced GrantVsZombies to let him open a new server, and OkBR 5 was opened and announced on April 22, 2023.[1] The server continues to be run mainly by Myszak, though Grant retains co-ownership of the server.
History
On November 16, 2022, Myszak began creating a template for a server of his which would be called ๐ฃ๐ฑ๐ฎ ๐๐๐ผ๐๐ช๐ด ๐๐ฒ๐ถ๐ฎ๐ท๐ผ๐ฒ๐ธ๐ท. Its rules, roles, and most of the channels on the server today were created back then, as it seems heavily inspired by previous OkBR servers, including Whenthe.
Early in April of 2023, Myszak became a subreddit moderator of r/okbuddyretard. He managed to convince Grant to make a new OkBR server, and on April 21, 2023, renamed The Myszak Dimension to r/OkBR and invited Grant and a few others prior to the server's opening the following day. Every mod of the subreddit was given mod on the server, however most of them proved to be extremely inactive, so Myszak still ended up doing most of the janitor work for the time being, with a handful of contributions from Coolest, Mets, and Seiya. Myszak officially handed ownership of the server to Grant on May 10, who later handed ownership over to his alt, Number 15, on June 2.
On May 13, r/OkBR opened created a new Minecraft Server, BuddyCraft, however it very quickly became inactive and remained that way before partnering with Whenthe. r/OkBR reached 1,000 members on June 11, nearly two months after the server's opening. Despite making numerous partnerships with other servers, r/OkBR has had the slowest growth of an OkBR server since OkBR1. Janitors were selected from applications on June 20, with 1moretr4sh, The, Trax, and Warmest being promoted, allowing Myszak to take a break from doing most of the modding.
The server held a summer event from June 20 to July 21. This included an economy event, where you could grind for Buddycoins and buy perks such as roles, custom emojis and stickers, or an announcement in the subreddit or Discord. Server activity peaked around this time, but began falling dramatically in the second half of July, with by far the most major drop occurring right after Cygnotto, who was known as a CREEP and a WEIRDO, was banned. Activity on the server didn't rebound until August 15 when r/OkBR partnership with Shid and Camed, a server with over 2,900 members at the time.
On November 26, 2023, The pruned 342 members and allowed anyone to ping the r/ role before promptly leaving. This resulted in a mini-nuke; some members from The Irony Hub came to spam invites, which led to the temporary belief that they had been responsible for this nuke. General was spammed for 5-6 minutes straight with mass pings and obscene images. Myszak and Saucy stepped in to stop the turmoil, but about 370+ members had been lost.
